The wrong keyboard mapping

@ and "interchangeable and other oddities." Implemented for En_US. How to fix?
You bird is my only app with this problem. BTW, Firefox (this window) is OK.

To diagnose problems with Thunderbird, try one of the following:

  • Restart Thunderbird with disabled modules (Thunderbird Safe Mode). On the Help menu, click "restart with disabled modules. If Thunderbird works as usual, there is an add-on or theme interfere with normal operations. You will need to reactivate the modules one at a time until you locate the offender.

  • The French keyboard mapping - no hooks in Windows XP

    Hello

    I'll try to explain my problem better than I can. I run a Windows XP3 VM in VMWare Fusion 3.1.1. This medication is fine except that I can't type square brackets in my VM, which sucks when I use Visual Studio for coding in c#.

    After some research, I discovered this activation keyboard mappings of language (french in my case) in the preferences of VMWare creates, among other things, some mapping of AltGr (and AltGr) which replaces the default behavior, type the brackets. The problem is, I can't disable their selectively, it is a choice all or nothing. If the keyboard for the language mappings globally are unset, I lose a lot of Mac to the PC keyboard mappings, and I have to use the PC to my Mac keyboard layout, which is difficult.

    Thanks in advance for any advice.

    Ah actually I finally managed to install the drivers.

    My MBP CD does not seem to be organized as described in the TechNote (see screenshot) and it is not a "setup.exe" in the CD \Boot Camp\Drivers\. As I tried to install the keyboard driver just happens to be insufficient

    Now I tried again and ran "Bootcamp.msi" in \Boot Camp\Drivers\Apple\ and then, after an error on AppleHALSomething that I simply ignored, I was asked to reboot and bingo!

    Now it works but I had to disable the mapping of the French language in preferences VMWare keyboard - looks like this mapping of language for the french (and perhaps a few others) is not correct or / and is not compatible with the correct Apple keyboard layout in Windows XP.

    Last little problem: braces and backslash must be triggered using the shortcut Win instead of Mac - it's better than nothing (and the height with Parallels) and a key mapping should be able to fix thar

    It would be nice:

    -If possible, avoid the Bootcamp install step (as others do),

    -If not, to recommend to install Bootcamp and disable the integrated French language mapping.

    You use the wrong keyboard layout. Apparently, you have a UK keyboard, if you want that the UK keyboard layout. You are probably using the American provision.

    To change it, go to control panel | Region and language and click the keyboard and languages tab. Then click on change keyboards... and choose the one that suits you.

  • How to use the Windows character map with the Arc keyboard?

    When I "Select" and "Copy to Clipboard" character as a checkbox and then enter any rich text field, it is for some unknown reason, out with the bad temper, that I did not choose. I don't think it's related to the Arc keyboard fault, since I do it only with my mouse ArcTouch.

    My "copy to clipboard" feature has always worked well in the past until I installed this Arc keyboard and the copy function continues to operate properly with anything but Windows XP Pro SP3 32 Character Map.

    So I want to try to enter a character by typing the standard code for the character... but the Arc keyboard doesn't have a "Numlock", because it does not have a dedicated digital keyboard and by the statement, you cannot use the number keys "at the top".
    "Product Guide" for the Arc keyboard is not very useful except on how to plug it in 28 languages.
    Is there a work around these two examples?
    Thank you.

    Someone told me that you can not add whatever it is wiped from the map of characters in a field of type text such as Notepad, that she must be rich text applicable as Wordpad. Not true..., I guess?
    Oh well, it's here where I got to go to... [Is it safe? [I'm going to cross that off my list].

    I forgot to say in the last post, & slipped a character of the fonts map does not either, on most of the trials if he drag & drop is of course the bad character and it is not just "Wingdings", but several I tried.

    When you say "characters in some fonts like"Wingdings"and"Symbol"will not display properly if changed to a different font - even if the code is correct."

    Can you help me understand what that means or how that could happen or what I can do to change the font?

    When I choose a check mark in the Wingdings font and then enter it here, it's: [u]. I don't know I wasn't looking to change police in Wingdings to something else between selecting and placing it here.

  • The keyboard mapping during the remote to the W2K8 Server Desktop session is messed up.

    Hello

    We have an interesting problem. We are access to a Windows Server 2008 R2 host from our Windows XP latops. We have users who access the site from Arizona, Colorado and China. Sometimes, after a user of China accessing the computer, the keyboard mapping is messed up. We push a character as an 'a' or some other person and it will open a file instead! We checked to make sure that the keyboard on the host computer mapping is changed Chinese back in American English. There seems to be a bug here, but we are not quite sure what it is! If anyone else has experienced this?

  • installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

    installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

    Wired or wireless - is usually not serious unless the wireless can get more interference.  If the keyboard is close to the receiver which is connected to the computer and you get the strikes hurt - my suggestion is to try first the keyboard on another computer.

    To do this, * not * require you to install specific drivers.  Simply unplug the combo of a computer and in the other and see if the keyboard works correctly.  Then, you can troubleshoot from there.

  • The evil in the guest OS keyboard mapping

    Hi all

    I ", running fusion 4.1.1 on Lion.

    I built a virtual machine with Lion too as a guest operating system.

    I realized that my keybord in my virtual machine is not well mapped.

    In fact, I have a couple of keys which, if you press on, do not correspond to the correct character.

    The keyboard, which is a wireless apple with Italian layout keyboard, works very well in the host environment.

    How can I solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Concerning

    After a few quick tests, here are two methods that certainly seem to work:

    1 copy (the vertical bar, etc etc) and paste directly between the host and guest: for example, for |, an initial cmd-C in the host and then, if necessary, a cmd-V in the comments and you're done.

    2. connect to the guest from the host with screen sharing (after you have enabled in the comments, of course): in this case, the keyboard mapping is that right from the beginning (he uses the host); and no doubt, you also need network bridged in the comments: no solution ideal, but might be better than the first, if you don't mind the drop in performance possible.

    Other possible solutions? Who knows...

  • Change of thai keyboard mapping: El Capitan

    I would like to change the thai keyboard layout, or create a new one with a key mapping different.

    This former article describes a way, but it may not affect El Capitan: http://xahlee.info/kbd/osx_keybinding.html.

    The "Keyboard shortcuts" directory does not exist in El Capitan; but:

    / Library/Keyboard Layouts

    ~/Library/Keyboard layouts

    exist, however, they are empty, despite two Thai layouts (so I expect to see a binding file).

    Thank you.

    There are two applications, you can use for this: ukulele and carabiner.  I think the first one is much easier:

  • Problems with the Smart keyboard (iPad 9.7 Pro)

    I recently bought the iPad Pro 9.7 inches, gray space, Wifi, 128 GB. IOS 9.3.1 of the operating system.

    A few questions that I met in my four days of using the iPad with the Smart keyboard:

    NOTE: the following problems persist despite a technical support call which lasted, I did 2 hours and 30 minutes. I had to restore my iPad settings by connecting to iTunes via my PC to reinstall the last iOS.

    (i) switching applications: if I want to pass, say, from safari to adobe, it is quite easy to do with the keyboard. However, there is an intermittent problem when the apps. When I try to open Adobe when I use safari, the screen of the iPad shows apps that are open as soon as I press the command and tab key.

    What is supposed to happen - I choose to open Adobe, Adobe opens.

    What happens to the contrary - Adobe does not open. Another "X" application that is currently running, opens. It is quite frustrating, because there is no pattern to this. If I use once more the keyboard shortcut to open Adobe, another application 'Y' which is running, open it now.

    In this case, I pointed out, often when the App Store is running.

    (II) command key: sometimes, shortly after I use the shortcut keys to turn on screen shortcut area (pop-up shortcut) - apps, this is supposed to happen if and only if you press and hold down the command key.

    This often happens when I switch to Safari.

    (III) keyboard not responding: a problem that I met today for the first time. My keyboard will not just respond. I had to disconnect and reconnect the keyboard for this function.

    (IV) on which the space key: to wake up the iPad, pressing the SPACEBAR is enough. You don't have to press the home button. Yet, sometimes the space key does not respond and you must use the home button.

    v) Quick app - keyboard shortcut crash switch function causes: if I want to switch from app to app 'X' 'Y', but mistakenly switch to 'Z' app, I immediately want to spend to 'Y '. However, I can't do this in quick succession. I have to wait a second or two before I can switch from 'Y' 'Z' app, otherwise the automatic switching app crashes and you have to wait once more for a second or two before moving on.

    My diagnosis:

    (I) it could be a problem with the smart connector on my iPad. A hardware problem. But it does not explain why the automatic switching app appears and passes correctly but eventually open the wrong applications. Also, it does not explain why the problem is intermittent.

    (II) a software problem. However, that would make me a face 5 questions at once. Sort of. I was surprised that, apart from the question of #3 and #4, there was almost no mention of other issues.

    To restart the iPad or to disconnect and reconnect the keyboard. But I don't think that anyone would be willing to do this 4 - 5 times on a daily basis.

    Update:

    So I used my keyboard all day yesterday without opening the App Store. And guess what? It has been working perfectly. All the above problems I mentioned were not available yesterday. I'll use the App Store today and let it run in the background to see how does my iPad.

  • HP keyboard mapping inorrect freshly installed Windows 7 / XP on HP Pavilion 500-202eo

    Hello

    After you have installed Windows 7 Ultimate on HP Pavilion 500 - 202eo, I noticed that the HP keyboard connected is incorrectly mapped. I had exact same questions with the mapping of the keyboard with new operating system installs on oher systems as well, but couldn't really find a solution for this. In fact, certain symbols appear to move; While normally, where usually I had to press Alt Gr + 2 I got the sign @, I must now press shift. The? + button now product - character, while pressing on - product button /, <>product button------etc. I tried to put the keyboard in 'Norwegian', which is the layout of my keyboard, but nothing helped. It seems that I must be missing some type of a pilot or a patch, which is present on each preinstalled system that I own, but somehow is missing on installed fresh, even if there are no conflicts in Device Manager. I have the same problem on the XP installation. Any suggestions?

    Hello again once, I managed to solve this problem by specifying the correct keyboard language in Control Panel. I didn't need drivers after all.

  • Equium A100 - malfunction of the laptop keyboard

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100 and when I press u on the keyboard on that I get 8u, when I I I ki, press o, I get lo, press press 2, I get w2. I checked the keyboard for defects on the cable to the motherboard, also shortcut keys off.

    I tried an external keyboard and it worked well. I ended up buying a new keyboard which worked well for a while, and then all of a sudden, he started doing the problem mentioned earlier.

    I uninstalled the driver and then reinstalled it but no difference. I am running Windows XP Home SP3.

    I hope someone can shed some light on this problem.

    Thank you.

    > I tried an external keyboard and it worked well. I ended up buying a new keyboard which worked well for a while, and then all of a sudden, he started doing the problem mentioned earlier.
    You bought the new keyboard and it solved the problem for a while.
    Well, in my opinion, there are two possibilities;
    You had a great misfortune and the new keyboard started to malfunction too, or there is something wrong with the keyboard on the mobo controller.

    But it's just my personal suggestion and if you want to know what's not exactly then you should ask a Toshiba ASP in your country for a control of the laptop.

    By the way; I hope that you use the latest version of the BIOS.

  • SMU-8431/8 RS-422 serial card sends the wrong number of bits

    I use a card series SMU-8431/8 RS-422 configuration for talking to a camera that has the speed of transmission parameters following 38400, 7 data bits, 1 stop bit, odd parity. I confirmed that the device certainly has these settings I can communicate with him using a separate Linux PC.

    When I try to use the serial port of EITHER the device does not react. Then, I connected the serial port OR on my Linux PC to see which sent the port NO. It is garbage. Nonprinting characters, control commands and the other characters are converted (for example I send the ascii character '1' and get the ascii character 'a').

    I made sure to add the terminating resistor 120 ohm NI RX + RX-lines and as mentioned in other posts on these forums, but it is only for the reception and did not solve the problem.

    I put a scope on the TX + and TX-lines from the map OR track seems reasonable that sent bits is correctly 38400 and voltage levels are correct moving between +/-3V. What I've noticed, is that the map series, NEITHER seems to be send to the 11 data bits. I expect 10-bit (1 start bit, 7 data, 1 parity, and 1 stop). I changed to 8 and then 6 bits of data and the total number sent passes to 12, then 10, respectively.

    I get the same behavior if I use Labview screws, Panel VISA for the port of MAX, or to remove the software NOR entirely and use Hyperterminal. This would seem to indicate that the problem is something in the settings of low level on the card itself.

    I tried a second SMU-8431/8 card and the same results, this isn't a fault map (may be two defective cards, I guess!).

    Any ideas?

    Many thanks in advance,

    Ian

    Discovered it was: used a scope to view the track both the Linux PC and the serial port OR to compare. The trace OR was significantly longer than the Linux. When I measured the width of the track OR whole, it worked to have a frequency of about 33 000, or much less that the 38400 assigned him. I was getting the wrong characters every bit of data from the port because NEITHER was out of sync with the Linux PC.

    I increased the port baud rate NOR and found that setting in 45 000 made it align correctly the Linux PC and I now the communication between the two devices.

    For the record, I don't have the terminating resistor 120 ohm or the anchor line to be included in the cable series between ports OR and Linux.
