Somehow I had gotten my keyboard preference changed to French.
If you have more than one keyboard layout enabled (checkmarked in the Input Sources section of the Language & Text control pane in System Preferences), then pressing Command-Spacebar or Command-Option-Spacebar will switch the active layout from one to the next.
You can prevent that from happening by either -
• Reducing the number of enabled keyboard layouts to one; or
• Turn off those two keyboard shortcuts. You can do that in Syatem Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts; click the Keyboard & Text Input in the left pane, then uncheck the two "select" items in the right pane.

  • Keyboard issue I have a iMac thats about 4 years old, and now the keyboard is not working properly. some keys do not work. Any suggestions ?

    I think I may have a virus! My keyboard is not working properly. When I press the zero key, it doesn't appear. Other keys that do not work include the directional keys, delete key, and others. I tried everything that I can think of to fix it, but nothing sesems to be working. Should I bring the keyboard and=/or the entire computer into my local Apple store+? see, the +? appears before the question mark, and I didn't put it there! Thanks!

    No need to take the computer at this stage.   Just take the keyboard into your local Apple store for examination.   If you have another machine, not necessarily Apple, you could try the board on that or perhaps a friend's machine … they are largely universal.
    You do not have a virus.

  • My keyboard is not working properly. To get an a i have to type a q

    my keyboard is not working properly. To get an a i have to type a q. To get a w I must type a z. M is the semicolon. Period is less than sign. I have turned off the computer and unplugged the keyboard and it still does not work. Running OS 10.6.8  Just noticed I have to use caps to get numbers.

  • Please help - keyboard backlight not working properly

    The keyboard backlighting on my 15in early 2008 macbook pro stopped working properly about two weeks ago. I opened it at night to find that only the middle keys were lighting up. No spills, no drops or anything out of the ordinary. I have already reset the SMC (via sleep/restart/shutdown and shift/control/option/power), but no luck. Currently the only keys being lit are: 6 7 8 T Y U G H J B N. If anyone knows of a fix for this or anything else I should try, please help. Thanks.

    You should take your MacBook Pro to Apple for repair. 

  • Keyboard backlight not working properly

    Hi, first of all, thank you for your replies and sorry for the bad grammar (english not my first language).
    Background info:
    I have a 17inch macbook pro 3.1
    Core 2 duo 2.4
    Im running Osx 10.7.2
    Upgraded HD and memory.
    Issue
    I had this computer since 07, no problems until about a week.
    keyboard back light doens't work properly, I have tried resetting SMC and using an app called LabTick.
    ONLY if I press slightly (without actually pressing completly) the keys "F" or "G" the backlight works.
    when it does it responds to the F8-F10 keys and goes off on light rooms.
    Its pretty annoying, it can be working for hours then it stop working and I have to play with f and g keys to get it working again for a long period of time.
    is this a common issue?, is there a quick fix, I really dont wanna pay about $800 to change the whole logic board.
    Thank you

    emmm... anyone had this issue?
    No and  don't think you will.
    I think you have a problem with your computer. Maybe a clean install of the OS might fix it, maybe not.
    If not then there is something wrong internally which can not be fixed without figuring out what internal part is causing it.
    That can't be done on this forum.

  • My Mac Keyboard Won't Work Properly Like Some Keys Will Do Other Functions Like B Would Turn the Sound Up And Some Won't Work Atall It was Fine Then I left the Room And Came Back And It Starting Doing What I Said it was Doing? Please Help!

    The Keyboard on my IMac Dosn't Seem To be Working Properly Most of Them Are Doing The Wrong Functions And Some Are Completly Dead Only A Few Work Please Help!

    DanielH123,
    I'd recommend doing a SMC reset. I'd also HIGHLY recommend completing your profile. Without a completed profile it makes it difficult to help you out.
    To reset the SMC:
    Shut down the computer. 
    Unplug the computer's power cord and all  peripherals.
    Wait fifteen seconds. 
    Attach the computer's power cord. 
    Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • HP DV4 1413TX Keyboard does not work properly

    I am using a laptop serie HP DV4 1413TX. After installing Windows 7 (Ultimate) and vietnamese keyboard driver, the keyboard stop work properly. 
    With a normal speed of typing, the cursor's movement is unpredictable. It can go up, go down and sometimes change the active window.
    Selection sometimes appear over typed charaters. I have no idea to solve this problem except typing slowly and carefully looking after the cursor position.
    Very appreciate suggestions of experts or anyone having experiences with this problem.
    Thank you !

    I am having the same issue.  I also just installed windows 7 and now my keyboard is very unpredictable.  I have a dv6500.

  • 3rd party keyboard no longer works properly with Yosemite

    Prior to the update to Yosemite my third party bluetooth keyboard paired without issue on my wizened 2007 MBP workhorse. I unfortunately spilled some liquid on the keyboard recently. A few keys no longer respond. I will be replacing the keyboard, being cheeper than replacing the entire computer. I brought out my third party bluetooth keyboard, and it initially paired fine under Yosemite. I went into the keyboard preferences to see if I could improve the key mapping with the function keys. Selected "set up bluetooth keyboard" which seemed to reset the connection. Since, the keyboard no longer worked completely. Letters, numbers, and function keys, respond, but none of the letter keys. I re-paired it multiple times to the same effect (forget - pair). The keyboard still pairs fine with my iPhone 6, with the Apple Mouse still pairs fine with the laptop. Is there any way to fix this problem? The keyboard technically is pairing!
    I am using an old apple USB keyboard as plan B until the main keyboard is replaced. However, this is especially frustrating, because one of the reasons why I bought that keyboard was in case the old laptop's keyboard developed issues!

    Do either of these typical troubleshooting steps make any difference?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * click the globe or padlock to the left of the address in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • After reinstall my magic mouse and keyboard are not working properly

    so i've had various problems with my mac so did a clean reinstall, now my magic mouse wont scroll and my the f buttons on my wireless keyboard don't work ie volume buttons, i've checked the system preferences and all is well there, any ideas????
    i have a 2008 24' imac

    Hi
    It is not easy to say much about this issue.
    Do you use wireless devices? Are batteries OK?
    Have you noticed the same problem using other USB devices?
    I presume both devices uses USB port on your notebook.

  • Ergonomic keyboard 4000 not working properly

    Hi all,
    I have a very weird problem with my MS Ergonomic 4000 keyboard (USB) connected to my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.5). I've connected it in the past and it worked just fine but now, it's not functioning properly. I'm typing this on the MacBook keyboard, but here's what happens when I type the letter i using the ergonomic keyboard: i9
    This is just from one tap of the letter i. It only happens with the lower-case i, and not with when typing a capital I (shift+i) This happens with other keys as well.
    I searched the forums and support sites and so have since both removed intellitype and then installed intellitype 8.2 for the proper OS, but still no change.
    Any help / advice will be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Thanks Esquared,
    I have the same problem in safe mode. I just tried it on my iMac and it does the same thing there. Also, when I press Shift + any key, a dialog pops up asking me to assign a function to a number key that I didn't press. The numlock key types "4" as well.
    So I'm guessing that the issue is with the keyboard itself. The question is, can anything be done? It's relatively new and I'd hate to have to just throw it out.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Keyboard will not work properly

    Only some keys function properly. No alphabet keys works and only 5 number keys. Mute works, volume does not. Scroll arrows do not work, but caps lock does, and so on. Late 2008 MBPro

    Sounds like you have a bad keyboard or keyboard cable or a bad connection between that cable and the logic board. It does not sound as though your problem could be software-based.
    If you have access to an external USB keyboard you could plug in and test with, that should tell the tale. If it works OK, you have a hardware problem.

  • Keyboard is not working properly in Macbook !

    Dear all,
    On 9th Jan'2010, I used slightly wet mac cleaning cloth with water to clean my macbook in outer portions and this I've done after shut down. I've done before several times but nothing happened. One more thing happened this time, I updated it to Mac OS X 10.6.2. When I start up my macbook, it worked smoothly 2-3 minutes after that it shows , key always press. Then I shut down again and check it the same behavior I found. After 1 hour all keys stop working with caps lock key's LED green but trackpad working correctly. When I put my macbook in sun light some of keys are now back in work but most of them are not. Since now in start up it always shows pressing key , and by pressing \ key it stops. My keys which works well are: 3, 7, 9, u, o, p, \, d, j, l, ;, ', m. Some of keys showing messing behavior means by pressing one key it shows many in keyboard viewer, e.g., pressing key w it shows twy, t it shows twy, and y it shows twy and so on. I noticed when I keep caps lock on, if I press any of the key it effects on caps lacks's LED shows. It means some how all keys are working. Some times caps lock LED glow dim and later times it becomes brighter. Its glow is inconsistently. External USB keyboard and USB mouse are working perfectly if I remove the effect of , key after startup by pressing \ in the internal keyboard. In startup it always take the effect of , key of the internal keyboard. Because of this I'm not able to do hardware check, PRAM resetting etc. Some times it shows strange keyboard viewer:
    http://www.flickr.com/photos/46629593@N08/4276121304/
    . When I restart it becomes normal US keyboard viewer. When macbook went in sleep it doesn't wake up by pressing any of the working keys of the internal keyboard while by the external keyboard it does. I'm not very much sure whether it is a hardware problem or software. Help me out friends. Many thanx in advance.

    Your alt (aka opt or ⌥) key is stuck down. This seems to be quite common these days.
    Try teasing it up with the corners of two credit cards or similar flexible, non-conducting tools.
    If that doesn't work, the wafer switch underneath may be damaged, in which case it'll need to go in for service.
