@ is " and " is @

[Michael Maggs]

I have installed hackintoshed OS X on numerous setups now and have never solved this little annoyance. I have never even found a workaround either.

 

I can only assume that pretty much everyone would have had the same issue with this.

 

Yes the character @ is where the character " is and vice versa.

 

This is pretty annoying on a dual boot machine when you regularly switch between using OS X and Windows XP because you have to remember that these keys are swapped round

 

I was just wondering if anyone has actually done anything to resolve this minor but rather annoying problem

 

Please let me know if you have. It makes me terrorise little fluffy kittens

 

Thanks in advance people

Obviously you need to change keyboard layout according to the keyboard used. If there is no correct layout present in default list, you might need to create/edit most similar yourself. There are 3d party applications for that.

THANKS!

 

Hey thank you as I said its something thats been niggling me for some time. I downloaded ukelele and altered a version of the British keyboard (remapping those keys), saved it with the addition of 'altered' to the name. Then loaded that keyboard map.

 

That program is pretty useful and you don't have to run the program in the background as it just allows the editing of standard keyboard maps. very useful and totally solves my problem.

 

Thank you very much for your assistance.

 

YAY! :D
