Umlaut not working

Hello,

I have a MacBook Pro and I just updated to Version 11.0.1 MacOS Big Sur, and now my Umlaut is not working. When I hold down the letter it just keeps repeating. Please help!

Hey there dgilliland,

Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We understand your keyboard is not working as expected after updating macOS. We’ll be happy to help.

Make sure you’re following the steps in this link to use characters with accents in macOS Big Sur:

Enter characters with accent marks on Mac

If that’s not working, boot your Mac into safe mode and try there:

Start up your Mac in safe mode

We hope this helps.

Take care.
