How to use my piano on my computer?

Q. Is there any way for me to plug my keyboard piano into my computer (even if it requires buying accessories or plugs etc.) ?
OR
Does anyone know of a computer program where I can type in what chords/piano notes I want and it puts them down for me? I can do it by hand so this is just a question.

A. All you need is a cable with suitable plugs.
If the piano is stereo the computer end needs to be a 3.5 mm stereo plug. Same type as headphones plug.
If the keyboard has stereo line out socket/s it could L&R RCA's or a 6.5mm stereo socket or even a 3.5mm stereo socket.
If it doesn't have dedicated line out it should have a headphone out.
A local electronics store should stock whichever combination you need.

RCA: The type used for VCR's
3.5 mm: The small size used for headphones on a computer.
6.5 mm: The larger size used for guitar cables.

If you don't have a recording program Audacity is a free audio recording and editing app.
I've used it for my el cheapo keyboard and once the input settings are adjusted the result is very good.

Lame if you need it to encode to mp3:

Original Question

How do you properly teach yourself how to play the piano?
Q. Hello everyone. I am teaching myself how to play the keyboard/Piano from youtube videos. I am a beginner and there are a lot of videos online that are helpful but I wanted to know what should I learn first. I know that before anything I need to know the name of the keys and scales but then what is next? And another question is, once I learn a scale, should I learn the chords in the scale and then the other scales or learn all of the scales first and then the chords?

A. I agree with the other answers, you have to spend some money if your going to succeed. If you prefer video then buy a piano course there are some excellent piano courses on DVD or available to download, they are not expensive and they have a set program for you to follow.

Here are some reviews to point you in the right direction:

Original Question

Is it possible to take notes from a guitar and change them to be playable on a keyboard/piano?
Q. If so, how? And if it is possible, can anyone change the guitar for "Loaded and Alone" by Hinder into keyboard/piano notes?

A. You play the chords on the piano the same way. As long as you're in the same key.
