[KS] Getting Hanja in Mac IME

Matty's right about how to convert Han'gul to Hanja on a normal Apple computer. I assume what works on a MacBook Pro will also work on a Macbook Air.  But that doesn't work on an ipad. I finally broke down and got an iPad a couple of weeks ago but have figured out how to type Korean, Japanese, and Chinese  but when I try to convert han'gul into hanja, the "option-enter" trick doesn't work. Does anybody know how to do that on an iPad?

For hanja on Mac - First of all - I use the 2-Set Korean input method that comes with the Mac OS1. Type in the hangul e.g. han2. after typing the last letter "n", "han" should be underlined. At that point, press "option" and "enter" at the same time3. This will bring up a list of all the "han" hanja, starting with the most commonly used. Use arrow up and down to choose your hanja and press enter again.
You can see a video of what this process looks like here:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuWUThwHlBg

Does anybody know how to insert hanja in hangul text using the hangul IME for Macbook Air? I can easily get hangul text, Japanese text with kanji, and Chinese characters using pinyin, but I can't figure out how to get hanja in the hangul IPE. On Windows machines when you open the IPE you get a menu that includes a hangul-hanja conversion button. On my Mac, however, I can see no menus. Suggestions anyone?
