Switch Keys @ and "

[Talbs13]

Hello guys/gals,

Does anyone know of a way to switch the @ and " on the Mac?

Sounds like US and UK keyboard, check settings

 

[Talbs13]

Changed it to English (British) and still the same.

Which keyboard are you using on which Mac?

 

[Talbs13]

Just a portable keyboard on a Macbook Pro.

I'm guessing not an Apple keyboard? There are some specific remapped generic keyboard configs about, I used to use one when I had a non-Apple keyboard but I can't remember where I downloaded it from. GIYF

I have a keyboard layout one which remaps to a proper UK keyboard if you're interested?

 

[Talbs13]

Yes Please. As long as it switches the " and @

Thanks dude!

Much appreciated.

I guess i'm odd, but I prefer the Apple UK keyboard layout, just seems more logical for " to be shift+'

Can use both with ease thou.

Not odd, totally agree!

Snow leopard is a pain in the ass for this - you need 64-bit drivers/mapping to get the natural keyboard working properly which MS can't be bothered to release yet!

you could always boot the 32 bit kernel, no?

That's even with 32-bit kernel - you need 64-bit drivers if the app is 64-bit native it seems.
