Delay/unresponsive on change input language macos Sierra

Hi,

I have same behavior - public beta 1 (16A238m)

Possible i found solution - disable enable Siri shortcut in Siri settings.

I've disabled the Keyboard Shortcut of Siri as you suggested, and the switching of input sources works fine. However, switching sometimes does not function depending on the app I use.

Yeah great, that was it.

keep on develop 🙂

PB2 seems to have solved the issue.

yes that works even for final release of Sierra... dudes at Apple need to fix this 🙂

I have this problem too. "Fn" have delay and sometimes not switching languages. It seems like floating bug. I use "caps lock" like solution.

confirming that this is still not fixed in the latest Ventura 13.3.1, and really messes up with keyboard layout switching. Only disabling Siri shortcut helped. Is there a Radar to fix this, Apple?

confirming that this is still not fixed in the latest Ventura too, disabling Siri shortcut did not fix the delay

for me and my girlfriend situation is equal. If you click too fast or too slow Mac didn't change language(((( sometimes change sometimes no. The problem is software, Mac is totally new (MacBook air 15 M2)

Same issue in the latest Ventura 13.4.1 (c) (22F770820d) on Pro 16 m1. If I type and need to change the language fast - it doesn't recognize I hit the change language button. I need to stop, click on language button, then wait until I see language change popup and only after that I can continue typing.

Still not fixed on macOS Sonoma 14.0 (23A344) either - Pro 14 M1

This issue has annoyed me so much that now I want to leave the Apple boat. No solution yet. Great hardware and mediocre software quality. They've implemented a weird (dynamic) layout indicator in text boxes that makes things even worse. Sometimes it doesn't appear and sometimes it stays visible forever. The thing has some high school project quality to it. Who would have thought that Apple products software quality would deteriorate so quickly. Don't get me started on the iPhone's keyboard - moved to another platform. Every year new bugs, I'm starting to think that Apple has adopted the philosophy: If it works, break it!

As a multilingual speaker this bug is killing me. I have to stop my original work flow and focus 3 sec just to switch it to the language I want. I am an AutoCAD user and I dont know if it is a bug on Mac or CAD, but everytime I type a command it ALWAYS first come with a Japanese character even I am at an English keyboard. I have to backspace once to clear it and re-type again. No idea how this happens but it almost make my work impossible.

• Reboot

• Go to System Settings -> Keyboard -> Keyboard Shorcuts -> Input Sources -> Select Next Source -> Click Fn

If you use keyboard with a numpad you would better change 0x700000055 to something else. Google hdutil.

The same problem in Sonoma 14.6, much dely after pressing fn to switch language or no response, rubbish apple!

Try the following. It works for me every time the FN key becomes slow.

Apple menu > System Settings > Accessibility > Pointer Control > Mouse Keys > ON/OFF.

Hi, I had the same issue, so ended up writing a small open-source utility that switches input sources instantly on FN press: https://github.com/tonku321/fn-lang-switcher
