SpeedfreaK Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I'm a happy os x86 user, but i have one small problem: every time I want to type @ I have to copy it from somewhere else because there is no key with that symbol on my keyboard in OS X ( I use a standart keyboard (no USB)) (in windows, i type @ with the 'alt gr' key and 2) Does anyone has a solution?

ndr77 Posted December 6, 2006 Share Posted December 6, 2006 in italian layout "@" symbol stays near the "L" key... in windows is "alt gr" + "ò"... in osx I just use the win key instead of "alt gr", so @ = win + ò US layout, if I'm not wrong is "alt gr" + 2, so I suppose in osx win + 2 might work...
