@ sign is the captial lock + 2 How can I change this - also can not find the sign of the pound sterling

I had my computer updated and the keyboard acts weird, I know that this can happen, but I can't find where to change it.
The sign @ is capital lock + 2 and I can not find the sign of the pound sterling.  The dates where the American MM/DD/YY, but I managed to change it, but can not find where to change the keys on the keyboard.  Help would be appreciated.
Thank you
Jenny

Hi JennyBrightwell,

1. how you accessed the pound sign before on the computer?

2. where you using a third party program for characters to work?

3. What keyboard layout you have defined on the computer?

4. What is the serial number and model of the keyboard?

5. what you up to date on the computer?

I suggest that you check if the problem persists when using on screen keyboard on the computer and the post with the result back.

  • Virtual machine locked... can not find the lock file

    Sorry if this was picked up elsewhere, but I'm relatively new to the Mac and VMware, and my search proved fruitless, so I thought I'd try to post. The situation is the following:

    I'm under VMware 2.0 on a MacBook Pro, and my computer virtual running Windows XP Pro. My Mac has does not respond this morning (on the left in the night market) and if I pressed the power button to restart manually. Once I did, started upward as per normal, but when I opened VMware to start my VM it tells me the my Win XP Pro has been locked. After finding several documented cases of this, I went looking for the lock file, but it is not in my folder /Users/ [name] / Documents/Virtual Machines. When I try to take ownership, he falls down, while it provides a Configuration file: /Users/ [name] / Documents/Virtual Machines.localized/Windows XP/Professional.vmwarevm Windows XP Professional.vmx.

    I activated my finder to show all files in the folder (http://www.macworld.com/article/51830/2006/07/showallfinder.html), but still don't see the locking file. I searched (using the projector) for files hard .vmx and .lck .lock, nothing helps. I've seen a lot of discussion of the use of Terminal to solve this problem, but I have little (no) familiarity with Terminal Server or Unix, so I'm a bit wary of doing.

    Can someone tell me where I could find this lock file so that I can delete, or if not, how can I solve this problem?

    Thank you.

    CTRL-click on the entry in the Virtual Machine library and select Show in Finder and then ctrl-click on the packaging of the Virtual Machine and select the content of the package.

    Close the merge and then delete the .lck files/files in the package of the Virtual Machine.

  • How can I find the icon to display the caps?

    The blue icon that will show you a capital letter, is now gone.  She normally comes up in the lower right of the screen when a letter is a capital letter.

    How can I find the icon to put it back on?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    If I look into my crystal ball, he tells me that you speak of an Indicator of Caps Lock in the notification area that uses a small blue icon to indicate the status of the caps lock is on.

    If this is the case, then the solution will depend greatly what version of Windows you have, and if the small utility is from your computer manufacturer, a manufacturer of spare keyboard or, possibly, a freeware utility downloaded from the Internet.

    Could you clarify some of these points and provide the version of Windows that you are using as well as the brand / model of the computer in question? Do you use an aftermarket keyboard and mouse and you remember download/installation of utilities for indicating the State of the caps lock?

    In the meantime, you can check the options available in the Keyboad Control Panel applet. Go through the property pages and look for a box that will be re - turn on the caps lock indicator.
