Hi

was surprised when i needed to place a capital i Using a shift key (either one) and it would not work. To work around, pressed shift lock button. It is very strange. Has anyne encountered something like this? So far, it happens on all windows PCs, have not yet tried with my mac. Will report later.

It is really annoying.

Would appreciate your reply.

Just to be clear, you're asking for help with a Windows problem, right? I can't think of any reason a normal keyboard shift key wouldn't work. I'd suggest unplugging and replugging the keyboard and/or rebooting the PC.

Thanks for your reply.

It is an APPLE bi-lingual keyboard. I tried two PCs and it was the same. After logging into my macpro, it was working fine, and upon return into windows, the problem resolved. Perhaps inside the keyboard there's some electronics that experienced a glitch... weird. I have never had this problem before. It resolved after connecting it to mac. Simple connecting and disconnecting while on PC, did not help....
