Keyboard not giving correct characters with Accents (serious, etc.)

My keyboard suddenly started to behave badly and stopped producing the grave and other accents. Same problem with a new keyboard. I get instead of e, ee, etc.  Other keys are badly behave this way. For instance, I occasinally getting a double parentheses)) instead of one).

I use Windows XP SP3.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Dear JW,

Thanks a lot for your comments. I realized that my problem started the same day wherever I installed a constant guard called security suite. CG has been coupled with Norton and offered free of charge by Comcast, my cable and Internet provider.

I just got the phone with Norton support. Apparently, this is a known issue. So, I removed the constant guard (using the control panel) and magically all my my accents are back. You want to see? Look: e, e, i, o, n... ;-)

  • replace the characters with accent with their basic letter

    Hello

    I need to replace the characters with an accent with their basic letter

    a = > has
    n = > n

    I use classes of equivalence as [[= n =]] in regexp_replace, but then I need to call it for each letter. Is there a simpler way?

    Concerning
    Marcus

    Given that I only have the names to convert INITCAP

    It seems that you can use the binary case-insensitive or accent sorting to get the results you want so:

  • keyboard does not type correct characters

    I type this word because when I type in Firefox (it appears only in Firefox) random characters are displayed instead of the typed character. For example if I type "qwerty", I get the following characters "asdfgh" if I try to repeat "azerty" then I "#zxcvb".
    I tried to run in safe mode and also tried resetting Firefox, I also tried another keyboard, but nothing seems to work!

    This problem may be caused by the Anti-Keylogger in ZoneAlarm, so you can disable this function until ZoneAlarm has published an update.

I have never used these before on Win 8 keyboards, and they both do the same thing, so I think it's a driver problem. They both type correctly on Windows 7.

  • M/S using wireless keyboard 800 and some characters are not displayed correctly

    Have just connected a new wireless keyboard M/S 800, and some characters are not displayed correctly. For example, I get "when @ (update 2) is pressed on the keyboard and the £ runs it shift 3.» Am currently using XP SP3.

    No problems with my original keyboard, Wired.

    Hi simoncd.

    What is your location.  The reason why I ask this is that your keyboard is set to the standard UK layout.  Looks like you have the keyboard for the U.S. keyboard layout.  Shift + 2 is the "on the UK keyboard, @ on the U.S. keyboard."

    To change the keyboard settings you must go to "Control Panel", then "regional and language options".  The first page allows you to set the number format and character relative to your location and also set the location.  Check these and modify accordingly so badly.  You want to then go to the second 'languages' tab and click on the button "Details".  Here you can set the default keyboard.  This changes if necessary.  This should, hopefully restore your keyboard to the presentation that you want.

  • Profile of user not loaded correctly, you have been connected with a temporary profile. How can I fix it?

    I use a Toshiba Satellite with windows vista. My father gave it to me, but instead of creating a new user account, I have renamed the original administrator account. two years later, I have 3 accounts on the laptop, which only the original is still the sole Director and has access to all partitions on the hard drive as well.

    A week ago, my computer laptop power had reported issues so I immediately sent for repair. I came home today and the Standard 2 user accounts work perfectly. However when I connect to my original administrator account I get this pop - up message:

    "The user profile was not loaded correctly. You have been logged on with a temporary profile. Changes to this profile will be lost when you log out. Check the log of the events for more information or contact your administrator "

    I lost all my profile settings, including internet bookmarks, music playlists, etc. The office looks like a brand new installation of Vista and all the customization disappeared. I can't afford to lose all data. It is seriously important and was on my desk and in my documents.

    How can I get my profile without losing any data?

    Hi Salman91,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Windows Vista Community.   New profile created, try browsing to the old profile (C:\users\username).  You should see all the old user data.  If this does not work, try to copy the files in Safe Mode.

    Please let us know if that helps.

  • EyelidFieldManager with the combination of RichList but RichList is not displayed correctly

    Hi all

    I'm putting a RichList inside an EyelidFieldManager, but for some reason, RichList do not appear correctly. I use 6.0 SDK and Eclipse. To illustrate the problem, I created a hybrid project of EyelidFieldManagerDemo an example of RichList quick reference guide. I created a new VerticalFieldManager. Then I'm building RichList inside VerticalFieldManager. After that, I added VerticalFieldManager to the absolute position in EyelidFieldManager. As a result, RichList does not appear, but screen shows a thin line. Screenshot of the app is attached, and the code is as follows:

    public final class EyelidFieldDemo extends UiApplication{    public static void main(String[] args)    {        UiApplication app = new EyelidFieldDemo();        app.enterEventDispatcher();    }
    
        public EyelidFieldDemo()    {        pushScreen(new EyelidFieldDemoScreen());    }
    
        public final class EyelidFieldDemoScreen extends MainScreen    {        private EyelidFieldManager _eyelidFieldManager;        /**         * Creates a new EyelidFieldDemoScreen object         */        public EyelidFieldDemoScreen()        {            super(NO_VERTICAL_SCROLL);  
    
                _eyelidFieldManager = new EyelidFieldManager();
    
                // Change the display time from the default 1.2s            _eyelidFieldManager.setEyelidDisplayTime(2000);
    
                // Build Rich List and add it to VerticalFieldManager         VerticalFieldManager vfm = new VerticalFieldManager(USE_ALL_HEIGHT | USE_ALL_WIDTH);          vfm.add(new LabelField("Rich List Of BlackBerry Devices Below"));            RichList list = new RichList(vfm, true, 2, 1);            Bitmap bitmap1 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("9500.png");            Bitmap bitmap2 = Bitmap.getBitmapResource("9000.png");            list.add(new Object[] {bitmap1, "Device 1", "BlackBerry Smartphone 9500", "Description of Device 1."});            list.add(new Object[] {bitmap2, "Device 2", "BlackBerry Smartphome 9000", "Description of Device 2."});            _eyelidFieldManager.add(vfm, 0, 0);
    
                // Create Toolbar and add it to the bottom of eyelid            ToolbarManager toolbarMan = new ToolbarManager();            Image img = getImage("home.png");            StringProvider title = new StringProvider("Home");            ToolbarButtonField toolbarButton = new ToolbarButtonField(img, title);            toolbarMan.add(toolbarButton);            img = getImage("music.png");          title = new StringProvider("Music");          toolbarButton = new ToolbarButtonField(img, title);           toolbarMan.add(toolbarButton);            _eyelidFieldManager.addBottom(toolbarMan);
    
                add(_eyelidFieldManager);
    
                // Disable virtual keyboard so it doesn't obscure bottom eyelid            VirtualKeyboard keyboard = getVirtualKeyboard();            if( keyboard != null )            {                keyboard.setVisibility(VirtualKeyboard.IGNORE);            }        }
    
            /**         * @see MainScreen#onSavePrompt()         */        public boolean onSavePrompt()        {            // Suppress the save dialog            return true;        }    }
    
        private static EncodedImage getEncodedImage(String name) {       return EncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource(name);    }
    
      private static Image getImage(String name) {      return ImageFactory.createImage(getEncodedImage(name));   }}
    

    I'll play with this combination of fields. Will post some results more than little time, and I am looking forward to any suggestions and ideas. Thank you very much!

    Figured this out extending from VerticalFieldManager and substituting sublayout (int maxWidth, maxHeight int)

    Looks like I have 'expand' manually VerticalFieldManager to get RichText will display correctly.

    Here is the screenshot of n work code of the result screen:
