Hello,
I have a 13-inch, 2017 MacBook Pro and I've recently come up with an issue with my shortcuts for the symbols, such as @.
Usually to type the @ symbol, I should only have to press the combination of the option + 2 keys, but lately, in order to type it, I have to press the following combination: fn + option + 2.
How can I reset the shortcuts for the symbols? I have this issue with a few other symbols.
Thanks
MacBook Pro
Typically it is the shift key 2 to get to the @.
Option 2 gives you ™
For the special characters use the option key.
for your fn key you make changes

In my keyboard's layout, shift+2 would give me the " symbol.
The option key would allow me to access the @ symbol, and this has worked before without the need to press the fn key or changing that setting as it keeps me from having access to the special features of the F1, F2, etc. keys.
