problem with new M1 MacBook, globe key doesn't function.

I have a new 20202 M1 MacBook Air with the same issue. The quickest fix I've found so far is to go into System Preferences=>Keyboard=>Shortcuts. There are two panels; on the left panel select Input Source and on the right panel select "Select the previous Input Source ^Space". When the Globe key stops working, simply press the Control + Space keys to restore the Globe key function.

I tried something and it resolved the issue with me immediately (without restarting or so).

I used to check the "use split controller" and "enable keyboard shortcuts" in my 2nd language (Arabic). But when I unchecked them both, it immediately worked perfectly fine.

I hope that this was the reason for that issue, give it a try! ❤️

Go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Input Source, then uncheck the additional options, refer to the screenshot for details.

Thank me later 😉😅😍

Нашел решение для клавиатуры на macbook m1.

Сначала я заменил горячую клавишу на cmd+space, но через некоторе время, месяц-два, снова повторялись "непереключения". Теперь я полностью отключил Siri (как делают настоящие "русские хакеры") и все заработало. Надеюсь надолго.

Видимо она мешалась со своими горячими клавишами (долгое нажатие cmd+space).

Same problem here with my M1 MBA and updated (as of 19 May, 2021). Every time when Fn / Globe not working, ^ Space also won't response.

I have to open up the Sys Pref -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts and click anything, then the Fn / Globe and ^ Space will come back (for a while).

I'm quite sure it is a macOS bug. Let's us get it reported and fixed.

Yes I do have the same problem and lucky you, I have the answer for it. I have been using MacBook Air M1 for 2 months now and I faced it a handful of times. When the problem starts happening, keep pressing control and then press space. There you go, problem solved.

Restarting the machine resolved it for me.

Control + Space and then the globe key will work again until the problem comes back. But, hey, it's better than restarting!

I have the same issue. I restart or log out and log back in then it works. However, the problem returns. I'm guessing it's a software issue since other fn key functions work when I press it. Only having issues toggling between languages. I sent off a comment to Apple, hope they fix it soon.

Hello Temur! Apple just released an an update yesterday to fix your stated issues.

Try to turn off the Use F1, F2 etc.

Checkbox located at System Preferences\Keyboard.

In some cases that helps.

Nobody in these forums knows when Apple will fix something, but you can add your voice to those asking for it to be given priority via

And in the meantime there are some other ways to switch keyboards

I've been having this problem as well. What worked for me was to just shut down my MacBook at night.

Yeah I've got the same issue, as well as the power/touch id button doesn't lock the computer upon press. It still reads my print just fine. A restart fixes it until it comes back. Hoping Apple fixes it soon.

Same problem here. I hope Apple release an update to fix this problem. I found a "solution" which is to start the mac under Safe Mode, then maybe the problem can be solved. This is the link.

Now im working on Safe Mode so i hope it can be solved!

This solution works. I just also unchecked and checked back "Select the previous..." and "Select the next..." on the right panel.
