Keyboard printing wrong characters

My keyboard on my Macbook recently started typing strange characters, speciƒically ƒ,o which sometimes comes out with a slash thru it, the u is sometimes just a apostrophe, and the capitol ƒ is some other kind oƒ strange character Ï.  Neither the Alt, Control, or Commant keys are stuck.  The special characters is set to Roman, ƒont is Apple casual.  This happens in all soƒtware programs.  What is wrong?????  It's driving me crazy.  Google won't recognize any word I type which shows up with one oƒ these characters in it.
Thanks

For those characters, your keyboard is typing as if the alt/option key was depressed, or the alt/option + shift keys.  It sounds like a hardware problem to me.

  • Laptop keyboard giving wrong characters

    Hi there,
    I am having HP pavillion DV 2760 en since early 2008 and facing these days a very unique problem.
    when I press ASDFJKL:" and ENTER keys they print another charater of lower string by pressing of single key.
    like charters prints this way
    A = ZA
    s = xs
    d = cd
    : = /; etc
    I have gone through many forums and have checked there is no NUMLOCK issue at all and some of the peoples suggested cleanining and some replacing the keyboard. Can you please guide me how this problem can be solved?
    My  Left Arrow key also went insane it works upside down. Is it a virus or is it something hardwre issue. yeah there's nothing spilled over any sort of liquid on my keyboard.
    I am using VISTA home edition 32bit and yeah I had changed recently DSL router and after that this problem became very prominent but I remember keyboard used to malfunction earlier as well like printing " instead of @ and vice versa. I hope this much details would be enough and waiting for your your feedback as its making me mad while working..
    Thanks
    Zee

    Hi,
    Thank you for your feedback.
    I will check this way also. But it seems to be solved for now but not for arrow keys actually. I was told to shut dowm system and take out battery for some time. And turning it on my keys were back in normal except arrow keys...
    I tried to clean my keyboard and there I saw some dust and hair actually stuck inside I have cleaned them to maximum possible but now the issue is there's a plastic covering back on the alluminium or mettalic lower part of the keyboard. it is transparent and looks glued.  If i rip off this sheet to clean the dust and particles stuck between that sheet and metal part then  my question is what kind of glue to be used to put it back. You can see at step3 and step 4 here.

  • OfficeJet 8500a Plus wireless; Desktop is running XP sp3 ... printing wrong characters on .pdf docs

    HP OfficeJet Pro 8500A Plus on a wireless network; Win XP SP3.  Also have HP Deskjet 882C connected via USB to same computer.
    When printing .pdf docs on the 8500, unpredictably, on some lines or sections of the document, the type prints as though it has switched fonts to a foreign language like Greek or Russian ... totally uncomprehensible.  I can attempt to print the same doc again, and I may get additional lines or sections in the wrong font, even though they printed correctly the first time.
    I can print the same document on my 882C first time, every time without error.
    Attempted to update 8500 drivers and firmware, but control panel on 8500 says no updates available.

    Are you sure your using the 8500A drivers and not the 8500- they can and will cause this?  If not please check the print preview of that job and see if it looks okay and let me know.  Also make sure your Adobe is up to date... which version do you have?

  • Toshiba Satellite C855-S5350 keyboard types wrong characters

    Hi all!I have the above named Toshiba laptop with keyboard problems. When typing, the keyboard will instead type another different character. Example, When I press "C", the computer will type "cd" and also brings up that menu for choosing second screen (PC screen only, duplicate........)When I press "escape", the computer will truly "escape" but will also type "q"When I press "d", again, "cd" is typed.When I press the space bar, space will be applied together with [Caps lock will type QqQqQq as much as I continue pressing it.J will type in "mj"M will also type "mj"S will type "xs" and also apply the Fn key for decreasing screen brightness (F2)V will type "v4"X will do same as 'S' above.Num 4 (top row) will type "v4" as in 'V' above.What I have tried,Connected an external keyboard - It worked fine.Booted with a linux live CD- typing problem is still there also.Please can someone let me know how I can solve this and what might have caused it? I'm afraid of having to replace the keyboard (as it smells so to me). Any workaround? Thanks. 

    This appears to be a very common fault with the Satellite Laptops.  My C55-A5249 is just over a year old and has had excellent care then all of the sudden the keyboard stops functioning. Of coarse it didn't happen until after the warranty was up. But I called Tech support anyway. They walk me through some issues that they could not resolve and sent me on to Another repair department (Closed on weekends).  This left me time to play arround.  I was actually able to attach a wireless keyboard to the laptop and it worked just great. I am currently in the process of "Refreshing" (hold down the ShiftKey and click on Restart from the power options button) the laptop back to defaults by hold down the ShiftKey and click on Restart from the power options button.  This is a gigantic pain by the time you restore everything.  Did I mention: "I HATE WINDOWS 8.  Anyway.. I'll let you know what happens next.

    Hi

    OSS Note: 776507

    Documents printed via SAPscript or SmartForms do not print with correct special characters, e.g. ### prints instead of Japanese or Russian characters. What to do?
    Other terms
    SAPscript, SmartForms, printing, device types, OTF
    Reason and Prerequisites
    Help required to choose proper fonts in a SAPscript or SmartForm
    Solution
    When using SAPscript or SmartForms to print (or email or fax) a form from a business application, many factors influence the outcome of the actual text within the form. All these factors must be checked in order to ensure a correct printout:
    1) The language version of the form used to produce the printout.
    Example: If you want to print a French invoice, you need to have a FR version of your SAPscript or SmartForms invoice form RVINVOICE01. And the application program must specify the corresponding language key (FR) when calling the SAPscript or SmartForms API.
    2) The font selections specified in the form (possibly also in a SAPscript style or SmartStyle used in a form).
    Example: In a SAPscript form or a SmartStyle you need to specify HELVE if you want to print German text in Helvetica (or similar) font. If you want to print Japanese text, HELVE is not a valid choice but you need to specify a Japanese font like JPMINCHO in your Japanese form.
    3) The output character set of the device type
    Every printer in transaction SPAD has a "device type" assigned. Device types used by the spooler for printing support only one single specific output character set. All text from the form has to be converted (using SAP's built-in character conversion mechanism) to this output character set.
    A character set can typically support either a single language (e.g. Shift-JIS which supports only Japanese) or a set of languages (e.g. ISO 8859-1, which supports Western-European languages). It is possible that a given language (such as German) can be supported by several output character sets, e.g. you may use either ISO 8895-1 (Latin-1) or ISO 8859-2 (Latin-2) to represent German text. This is so because both character sets contain the special characters used in German.
    Example: HPLJ4000 is a HP LaserJet device type supporting the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set. ISO 8859-1 can be used to represent e.g. Dutch, English, French, German, Spanish, Swedish but NOT Russian or Japanese.
    As a consequence, it is ok to use HPLJ4000 to print English, German French etc. but not for Japanese or Russian.
    4) The set of available printer fonts for a given device type
    When formatting a document, SAPscript and SmartForms perform an automatic mapping of the font definitions in the form (e.g. "HELVE 14 point bold") and the available printer fonts of the device type. A replacement printer font is chosen, should the specified font selection not be available in the device type. Now this replacement can be problematic if a language-specific font, such as Chinese CNSONG, is specified in a form and it gets replaced by a font which does not support this language, e.g. COURIER.
    To solve this problem, font families in SE73 have language attribute assigned, e.g. some fonts are characterized as being suitable only for certain languages. And when a replacement has to be chosen because the original font from the form is not available in the device type, a replacement font is chosen which has the same language attributes.
    If no fonts for the language in question exist in the device type, the resulting font will not be able to print the special characters and you will see "wrong" output characters in the printout.
    Note on SAPscript/SmartForms Print Preview:
    The OTF Print Preview available in Windows GUI (e.g. from transaction SP01) will sometimes not show the "wrong" characters which appear on the final printout. Here is the reason: since the Print Preview runs in Windows environment, it will use Windows fonts to represent the actual printer fonts. A Windows font typically has more available characters (i.e. covers more character sets) than are actually available in a printer's resident font.
    A typical example where the Print Preview will differ from the printout is here: if you have a Chinese PCL5 printer such as CNHPLJ4 and use the Western Latin font COURIER in your document, the print preview will show you Chinese characters if you (by accident) tried to format Chinese characters in COURIER font. This is because Windows will automatically choose a font that can output Chinese characters (which is actually not Courier). But when you print the job on an actual PCL5 printer with resident Western and Chinese fonts, the Courier font will not print any Chinese characters but Western special characters instead, because the printer's resident Courier font does not include Chinese characters.
    Rule of thumb: all Asian device types (e.g. CNHPLJ4, JPHPLJ4, JPPOST, KPHPLJ4) support not only Asian fonts but also COURIER, HELVE and TIMES fonts. But these Latin fonts can only be used to print English text, not Chinese/Japanese/Korean characters.
    Which fonts are suitable for a given language?
    Language(s):            Font family to use in a form:
    Latin-1 (Western Europe/Americas) *******

    Verify your output by examining the OTF data
    When analysing printing problems of this type, be sure to check the OTF data which gets produced by SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF or "Output Text Format" is the intermediate page-description format generated from SAPscript or SmartForms. OTF will contain the final printer font names and character set/language identifiers which help to solve the problem. OTF will even name the form and the language of the form used to create the output.
    The easiest way to do this is to create a spool request from your application, run transaction SP01, use menu
    Goto->Display Requests->Settings
    and choose
    Display Mode: Raw
    Now display your spool request. If this is a SAPscript or SmartForms spool request, you will see OTF data. Each line represents one OTF command, every command starts with a 2-character cmd identifier and possibly some cmd parameters follow.
    Here is an excerpt from a sample OTF file where we highlight the most interesting commands:
    //XHPLJ8000    0700 00000000001
    IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA

    CT00000000
    ST0453037Dieses SF hat Stil ALEXTEST_ZEBRA mit
    The 1st line with the // (Control) command reveals the device type usedto print: HPLJ8000
    //XHPLJ8000    0700 00000000001
    The 2nd line (IN = Info command) shows the name and (internal 1-char)language key of the form:
    IN04EALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    In this case it is the English (E = EN) SmartForm ALEXTEST_ZEBRA
    The OP-line (OP = Open Page) gives the page format used in the form, it is DINA4 Portrait orientation:
    OPDINA4  P 144  240 1683811906000010000100001
    The CP (CodePage) cmd shows the SAP system codepage used to code the text and the active language. In our case it is codepage 1100 and language E = EN = English.
    CP11000000E
    Finally, the FC-cmd (Font Call) lists a printer font selected within SmartForms. Please note that every SmartForm has a designated default SmartStyle under "Form Attributes->Output Options". In addition, every text node can have a SmartStyle attached (which will override the definitions from the default style for the text). In our case the resulting printer font that was selected is HELVE 12.0 pt bold-off, italic-off.

  • Device Type to print Vietnamese Characters

    Hi Gurus,
    I can print Vietnamese characters in a laser printer using the device type SWINCF and Access Method F (Frontend printing).
    Now I want to print using Access Method U (Print using Berkeley Protocol) in a network printer (located overseas). I am using a unicode device type ZHPUTF8F because our SAP system is running under Unicode (ECC 6.0). Unfortunately the printout for the Vietnamese characters are wrong (garbage characters). Is it possible to print Vietnamese characters using a device type other than SWINCF? The printer model that I am testing with is HPLJ 4250.
    One more thing, we will be needing to print using a dot matrix printer. Is there a specific device type that can print Vietnamese characters for dot matrix printer (e.g. Printronix)?
    Thanks,
    Andre

    Hi Andre,
    did you check SAP note 750219 that all listed prerequisites are met ?
    Regarding other printers and Unicode support, please have a look at:

    Finally, the FC-cmd (Font Call) lists a printer font selected within SmartForms. Please note that every SmartForm has a designated default SmartStyle under "Form Attributes->Output Options". In addition, every text node can have a SmartStyle attached (which will override the definitions from the default style for the text). In our case the resulting printer font that was selected is HELVE 12.0 pt bold-off, italic-off.

  • Random wrong characters appear when typing in Firefox--why?

    While typing in Firefox, random wrong characters appear (e.g. I type "i" and "n" appears). If I go back and retype it, the same wrong character may appear two or three times, then the correct character appears. This happens while using gmail, but also, for example, when entering search terms into Yahoo. It does not happen while using other browsers such as Chrome, and it does not happen using other applications.

    the wrong type characters kept appearing--I
    would type the letter i and a 5 would appear instead.
    This would indicate you have activated the feature which turns the right side of the keyboard into a numerical keypad. It might be Fn-F6 that controls this -- sorry I don't have a notebook and am not sure exactly how this works.

  • Wrong characters appear when typing on this discussion page

    I was using safari on a power book (G4, processor 1.67 ghz, tiger 10.4.7) earlier today to try to download (unsuccessfully) some game demos, Myst IV and Myst V from macgames. Safari was terribly slow. It also crashed frequently and when I got on this discussion page to ask about this, as I was typing my concerns, the wrong type characters kept appearing--I would type the letter i and a 5 would appear instead. When I tried to use the delete button to erase the 5 the it wouldn't move.
    I then got out of Safari and int word to see if I would get wrong characters in a document. The same thing happened. I kept getting a combination of letters and numbers in the document I was typing. I then shut down the power book and turned it back on without being online. I was able to type in word without getting the mixture of numbers and letters.
    I guess I shouldn't use the power book to get on the internet. I know macs aren't supposed to get viruses, but could the problems safari is having be a virus or some other destructive thing? or perhaps my powerbook has a virus? I was planning to upgrade the imac's 10.1.5 to Panther and use safari as explorer doesn't work well with some websites and safari was reccommended. Perhaps I should stick with explorer 5.2
    I have updated to 10.4.7. recently. Is there a safari update I need? I don't remember any of this happening before the update, however I rarely use the powerbook to get on the internet, so it could have been happening before the update to 10.4.7. Also since there is something wrong with safari, is there a different browser I could use with the power book? the imac has explorer 5.2. What about an anti virus program for the power book? Any suggestions or recommendations on how to deal with these problems would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Edith

  • Keyboard types two characters at once

    When I try to type in a password for a printer the keyboard types two characters at once.  i.e. 11 when I typed 1.  This only happens when I'm typing the printer password.  Why is this happening and how do I make it stop?

    Hello kiddk66 and welcome to Apple Support Communities,
    " This only happens when I'm typing the printer password."
    So that's got to be a software incompatibility issue. Can you use another computer and eliminate the password or is this part of a shared workgroup of something like that?
    Otherwise it would help to know which computer, size, year and OS you're running.
