Dot & Comma Keys not working

Hello there

That's an interesting occurrence, there is possibly one explanation but I might be clutching at straws , Do you use FCPX at all? Because in Final Cut Pro the dot and comma keys are often used as key shortcuts for a precision tool to move a highlighted clip forwards or back in the timeline, for perhaps say, bringing in a visual bang on the first note of a piece of music , that sort of thing. I am not aware of any other App that uses these two keys which is why its intrigued me.

My thinking is ,that they somehow have got caught in a sort of trap between commands , of being still in Final Cut ...OR the shift key is stuck ...OR the keys have been assigned somewhere else as a shortcut possibly for a gaming App.

Sorry to be so vague but I think its something to do with the keys possibly having a dual role .

Let me know if my little stab in the dark sheds any light,

All the best,

Sam

Hello!

Click Show Keyboard Viewer:

Do you see gray keys Dot & Comma when you press that keys on the real keyboard?

If don't – this is keyboard hardware problem.

If you see – start Text Edit.app and try to click that keys on the virtual keyboard. Do you see symbols Dot & Comma in the Text Edit window? If you see – this is application problem in which you try to input this symbols.

If you don't see this symbols in Text Edit window – I'm very impressed and don't know what is it…
