Sounds like you need to change your keyboard language.

RE: How do i change my keyboard layout when typing @
That usually happens when you are typing on an IBM keyboard using standard
keyboard layout or vice versa. If you own an IBM keyboard your "@" should be above the right shift button and your double quote on the "2" - check if your keyboard layout options include something like IBM 220 or 319 and try them out. If you own a standard keyboard your "@" should be on digit "2" (shifted), right above "Q" & "W" - then your keyboard layout might correspond to another layout, such as IBM's. Where is your "@" situated? "Will" wrote: > When i try to type @ my keyboard always types ". I have tried to change > several settings without success. Any ideas? |
