Please read Apple's info on how it is supposed to work and tell us in detail what is going wrong:


Use emoji and symbols on Mac - Apple Support


Does the Character Viewer not appear when you Press Fn/Globe-E, or choose Edit > Emoji & Symbols?


Does it appear but you cannot add symbols to your text? What apps exactly?
