be aware that macOS Sierra disables and DELETES all stored PPTP profiles during the OS upgrade. to access your university library's e-resoures, or for many many other things.

Since I am at it: in case you use proxy connections, e.g. MacOS Sierra & iOS 10 disables PPTP proxy connectivity for VPN It seems he is also working on a new version of Karabiner, called 'Karabiner-Elements' (not quite sure yet how that will be different from Karabiner itself, but it does address these kernel changes): You can easily check this from time to time at.

We should wait for EITHER Microsoft (and others) to update their code, OR (I am more optimistic there) for Takayama Fumihiko to update his 'Karabiner' script.

Yet, in this case, because of the kernel code changes, it is near-to-impossible to fix the issue (because MS Word still 'thinks' it works under a different OS). That's lots of fun, and it can save the day.

But with F-Script (and until recently 'simbl' which is now outdated), you can do that step by step, look at the various elements and Objective-C sub-routines of the Cocoa libraries, and then do some open heart surgery there and interrupt or insert a function where needed. The code of partially encrypted applications like MS Word can otherwise not be checked and thus not be fixed. F-Script is an amazingly useful script for reverse engineering. I used 'F-Script' - more particular 'F-Script Anywhere' - to look at the code element where that happens. The document body, on the other hand, is, as we would expect, Microsoft's own outdated code, and the input function is thus not working. It works in that SEARCH window because that is a pre-defined element from Apple's code library, so it gets auto-created on the fly. You'd then still have to copy/paste the characters into your document's body text. I am referring to the search field on the top right of the document view, with the small magnifying glass: IF using Sierra (which seems OTHERWISE more stable than OS X El Capitan) I can only suggest to use MS Word's SEARCH input field to generate hanja that works in both, MS Word 20. Not really presently - mid-September 2016 - there is not. Because of these code changes in the kernel, though, the present version of 'Karabiner' is not anymore working. A workaround had been the open source application 'Karabiner,' a key remapping script, clearly the best of all such scripts for the Mac. Of course, for Koreanists what counts is MS Word and possibly Outlook, and there it does not work, had not been fixed under OS X El Capitan and has not been fixed for Sierra either.

their word processor 'Pages') the input works fine, and even in some of Microsoft's 2016 Office programs, such as Excel, it works. The short version of the story is as above. likely due to more code written by Swift (their programming language and tool).

Rather, the problem comes in because several major software companies have not updated their code yet - and, as begun in the earlier El Capitan OS, Apple has now further changed major pieces of code in Sierra's 'kernel' (same applies to iOS 10). The issue is in fact not that Apple now dropped that functionality all together. My first take on this, on where to locate the problem of inputting hanja under macOS 'Sierra' (10.12), as posted end of August on the KoreanStudies Internet Discussion List, was partially off.
