British keyboard commands have changed

Recently, I noticed on my Macbook Pro (running El Capitan 10.11.4) 2011 beginning British keyboard, I can make more the euro (€) symbol or the accent acute/Irish/Gaelic fada ('') using the down option.

Option + 2 now gives me™ where it used to give me the euro symbol, and option + vowel now gives me a circumflex (e.g. i) where it is used to give me the treble.

I don't know when it started, but I wonder if it was caused by an update, as I have not changed it parameters. Can someone tell me how to solve this problem and return my option controls how they were before?

Looks like you have the active US keyboard. Check preferences-> keyboard-> input Source System.

  • Keyboard shortcuts have changed?

    I copy relevant text from a pdf file to paste into a word as a written document and study aid. The shortcut keys don't work - they seem to have changed. Drop-down menus, for example, to find I have use should use Ctrl + G, because Ctrl + F takes me to the play Mode. Zoom I use Ctrl + C and the copy I use Ctrl + c. How to differentiate Big C and c little shortcut keys? I tried searching this problem, but to no avail. I looked through the preferences menu, but have not found anything. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Thank you very much.

    You cannot change the keyboard shortcuts in the Acrobat family, so unless there is something very wrong with your computer they will be always the same:

    Find = Ctrl + F

    Ctrl + H = playback mode (think 'H' for 'head-up display')

    Copy = Ctrl + C

    Paste = Ctrl + V (two values of the system-wide)

    Zoom has a bunch of different missions, but 'Zoom' is Ctrl + Y

    Technically, Ctrl + c and Ctrl + C are different, but it is normal to show the shift in the menus and documentation because it is easier to read, for example in lowercase L and number 1 appear to be almost identical in several fonts. When an explicit capital is required by the software it will always set the combination of keys like "Ctrl + Maj +..."

    Do you mean that the menu items have changed, or the keystrokes are also different, or both? A screenshot of your menus will help you.

  • Keyboard shortcuts have changed without my sense to-cannot use important keys

    Hello.

    This morning, out of the blue, two important keys on my keyboard are not what they are supposed to:

    (1) shift and the letter 'c' launches an application on the computer instead of allowing me to type a capital "c". I am a writer and cannot continue without the ability to take advantage of this letter.

    (2) my "Tab" key is no longer allow me to move around in a document (from cell to cell in Excel or Word from the tab to). It is now to move from the application.

    I've exhausted my investigative efforts and may not know how to restore the keys on the keyboard to their original functions. Help, please!

    Thanks in advance.

    First step with a problem like this (or most of the problems) must be
    to restart the computer. It sometimes fixes things. Have you tried?

    If this does not work, buy or borrow another keyboard and see if you are using
    This solves the problem.

  • the keyboard functions has changed

    I have windows xp professional sp3. I had installed a new keyboard. for a few days it worked satisfactorily, then somehow the keyboard functions have changed. as when you press the left control button explore/firefox opens, pressing right shift key two parallel vertical lines (|) appear every time I type. This doesn't seem to be a hardware problem. the basics of microsoft antivirus and avast security. no virus is demonstrated. How to restore normal keyboard functions?

    Hello pantatul,

    Sorry, you are having this problem!  What is the make and model of your keyboard?  Have you looked on the Web site of the manufacturer for any issues you have described?

    Below I have added a link to a few steps to try and I hope this helps out.  It provides for the Microsoft keyboards, but also a list of other keyboards left 3rd.

  • Difficult to change the sizes of brush with keyboard commands

    Hi all

    All of a sudden I have problems change of brush sizes, hardness etc. using keyboard shortcuts. Additionally, when you try to use a brush with a taper on it (which I would like to get rid of), he refuses to go.  Sometimes I can use keyboard controls and all that after I chose another tool and back brushes (or dodge or burn), say brush, click on the arrow icon, then back to the brush and use the keyboard command, or click on the program and back in.

  • How can I get the game controller that you want to correlate to the keyboard commands?

    How can I get the game controller that you want to correlate to the keyboard commands?

    You may need to use the profiling software that comes with any game controller you are using.

    Some software controller has a library of game titles with default button/key configurations that

    You can change in the software according to your desires.

    -The software will need to navigate you to the games executable ( .exe ) from in the profiling software, which allows for the profile that you create in order to be recognized when you load the game in question.

    You can create orders, or simply assign a key combination, of a particular button on the controller

    and save the profile.

    -If the controller does not have a profiling software available for download, you may be stuck

    with some default orders can work with this controller and as a monopoly$ insinuated oft

    the controller XBOX games PC as a default configuration, a few years ago, it could mean

    your controller can be very useful if it is not programmed to emulate the XBOX controller.

    -If your controller is programmed to emulate the XBOX controller (like many recent controllers)

    It should be just a matter of changing the configuration in game controller options.

    What version of the operating system and Photos you have - whether you use pictures you don't have OS x 10.9.4 as you say

    Maybe this thread will be hep - they found that drag the larger window solved the problem - Re: Option to display the sidebar photos on Mac is grayed out.

  • The slider has stopped being able to open previous tabs. I can go back in a tab using the keyboard commands, but not there mouse.

    Without my change all settings, mouse ceased to be able to open previous tabs. They become locked. I can go back to a previous tab using keyboard commands. Why is this happening? How can I find the power to the mouse?

    You can try to find the real cause. Safe mode disables installed Extensions, themes (appearance) in (Alt + T) Tools > Add-ons. Hardware acceleration is also disabled - manual setting is Tools > Options > Advanced > general > use hardware acceleration when available. All these adjustments can be also enabled/disabled/changed manually to isolate the cause after exit safe mode and start Firefox normally.

  • iPad Smart Keyboard Pro, the change of language is laggy.

    Hello

    I use the iPad Pro with Smart keyboard and have a problem with the change of language being lag.  When the Globe is pressed, it shows the available languages and thin switches, but the change is not applied instantly.  There is a slight lag in the language that makes typing very awkward and choppy of switching experience.

    Anyone else notice this problem with the help of more than two languages?

    Thank you.

  • I have an update for El Capitan 10.11.2 in the app store, but it will not be installed. Whenever I click it, it says the computer must restart, and when that happens, a dialog box appears saying that updates have changed and he does not apply.

    When I click on he App Store update, he said first a reboot is required, then it just happens before the restart, a pop up advising me that updates have changed and offers 2 options: 1) cancel, which does nothing and 2) show invisible characters, which also does nothing. I rebooted several times and it still does not work. What should I do?

  • Keyboard layout has changed. Symbol and the number of keys do not work properly.

    my friend borrowed my computer and then I came home and tried to send someone. When I type I can't get the shift to capitalize the letters or the numeric keys to make an exclamtion, or the sign or dollar etc... can you help me.

    Hello

    The friend may have changed keyboard and other parameters which they should not do
    without telling you. Try a system restore before that happened - reboot first to see if this
    It clears.

    Reboot and then if necessary use this method to return to until the problem occurred.

  • The rest keyboard layout has changed

    I use the dvorak layout.  It is not a problem at home.  But sometimes I use the computers of others or to use another computer to work.  It would not be a problem because, in theory, you can simply activate back.

    The problem is that when I change it to the American keyboard layout, it does not change back.  I even removed it from the menu available dvorak is more selectable.  But there is still the dvorak layout.  Even the CTRL + key shift hotkey remains and it is the only real way to go once I put the dvorak layout.

    How do I * definitely * make available to the United States?  Or I have to wait indefinitely for a fix and everyone is just going to get mad at me?  This issue had on Windows since at least Windows XP and it's probably in Win8.  I use Win7.

    PS: I know how to change it already.  Control Panel > region and language > keyboards and languages > change keyboard... > General > [select United States-Dvorak] > delete but this DOES NOT WORK!

    Thank you.

    Greetings!  I too use the Dvorak layout for over 15 years now and love it.  It is now a challenge for me to use a Qwerty keyboard these days.

    Of course, the best response is that, since it is a user-specific preference, you must create your own connection to the other computers that you use occasionally.  Then simply logging in (or 'switch user') to your own username, the keyboard will change to your favorite Dvorak after the opening of your session is over and will be at the time where others connect with their own username.  It is what I use to keep mental health between me and the rest of my family at home.

    If commandeer you an existing connection and replace the Dvorak keyboard, all you need to do is add Dvorak to the list, and then select it in the "Default Input Language" section as you did.  You must keep in mind, however, that the default keyboard language is applied whenever an application is launched and will be preserved (i.e. cannot be changed except bar Ctrl-Shift or language) as long as this application or window is running.  Other applications launched from this window can inherit this trait, too.  To return to no-Dvorak, you simply change the default keyboard input language setting (no need to remove the Dvorak topic) then exit and restart any applications that are running and have been initiated with the Dvorak type keyboard as default.  It's always the way it worked for me.  If you are temporarily requisition of someone else to logon, it may be better to add the Dvorak keyboard list but keep the Qwerty keyboard as the default keyboard and then change of Dvorak with Ctrl-Shift as needed.
