I had it yesterday, but now I get this #
and when i'm supposed to have " I get an @
and @ is now "
a squiggle has just been lost completely and replaced with this |
  1. is now \
Some of these symbols are lost forever and I have had to copy and paste

some one has been fking around and I'm pretty sure it's my son, I have given him chinese burns, nipple pinches, wedgies and other forms of playground torture, but he's a tuff cookie and will not squeal.

Can someone look out for my missing £ as I am trying to do invoicing and it's proving difficult.

Anyway, anyone kn ow how to fix it?

Your computer has switched to US keyboard settings, it is a PITA.

Only solution is to replace it with a new laptop....

As a temporary fix why don't you just invoice in dollars?

That's not a bad idea. What's the exchange rate like?

Or hold down the alt key and type 156 on the numeric keyboard as a last resort.
