Hi, I am using Parallels with my MacBook and I am running XP Pro in German. Just a simple Question: How can I type the "@"-Letter? I have tried every single combination of letters and keys. Please send me your suggestions and hints. Thanks . . .
Yes, I did. Also Shift CTRL Q. I have no ideas left. Any other suggestions? I am happy for every idea. Thanks for the answer.
In mine it's ctrl+alt+2, which is the Portuguese layout. If ctrl+alt+q is not working (the german layout I believe) than maybe the keyboard layout isn't well configured under XP, double check those settings.
The keystrokes required for typing different special symbols are listed in the table below: 1) If you have French(France) layout: @- "Alt Gr + 0" # - "Alt Gr + 3" 2) If you have German(Germany) layout: @- "Alt Gr + q" {- "Alt Gr + 7" }- "Alt Gr + 0" [- "Alt Gr + 8" ] - "Alt Gr + 9" 3) if you have Swedish (Sweden) layout: @- "Alt Gr + 2" 4) If you have Norwegian(Bokmal) layout: @- "Alt Gr + 2" $- "Alt Gr + 4" {- "Alt Gr + 7" }- "Alt Gr + 0" [- "Alt Gr + 8" ] - "Alt Gr + 9" 5). If you have Dutch (Belgian) layout: @- "Alt Gr + 2" Press "CTRL + ALT " instead "Alt Gr" on MacBook and MacBook Pro Also you can do the following: 1. In the Mac top bar, click "Parallels Desktop->Preferences", choose "Keyboard" tab. Check "Translate from AltGr to NumEnter" option. 2. Then try to use the Enter key to the left from cursors keys instead of AltGr Press FN+ENTER to reproduce INSERT (only for Mac Books and/or Mac Book Pros) How to find out the keyboard layout in Mac OS X and Windows: * Mac OS X: open Mac -> System Preferences -> International -> Input Menu and find out what layouts you are using. * Windows XP: open Control Panel->Regional and Language Options->Languages->Details->Installed Services, where you can find the layout.
