Keyboard change on MacBook Air on M1

Hey! I'm having exact same issue.

That's so annoying!

I have to sign out and only then it begins working fine.

But...

Few more pushes and boom - here we go again

P.S. I've tried googling and nothings helps. Hope here somebody knows how to fixit.

I'm pretty sure only Apple can fix this bug in the new feature they added with Big Sur. Make sure you complain via the feedback channel link provided earlier,.

The globe key is new with Big Sur. You can still use the old shortcut, Control Space. You turn this on or change it in system preferences > keyboard > shortcuts.

If you are using a non-latin keyboard, you can also use Caps Lock.

I'm experiencing the same problem. I tried to set up English Spanish Latin America and Japanese. It will shuttle between English and Japanese with the caps lock key but not Spanish. I removed Japanese. Now it still won't shuttle with caps lock. I have to go up to the menu bar in order to change between English and Spanish. Super frustrating. You used to be able to turn on a mac and just use it with minimal need to find out how to do something. These machines used to be intuitive. That's no longer the case I'm wasting loads of time going on youtube just to do simple things.

Caps lock has never been able to switch between two latin scripts, like English and Spanish, only between a non-latin and the last used Latin script (like Japanese -- English or Japanese -- Spanish).

I think both two new MacBooks are having this problem. I'm using a MacBook pro M1 and I'm having that problem too. The only way to fix it is to restart my mac but after a couple of times, it stops working.

I sent feedback to Apple and I'm wishing to fix it because I'm switching languages all the time and it takes forever to change them without the keyboard shortcut.

For many years before last October everyone used Control Space instead of Fn/Globe. It still works if you check the box in system prefs > keyboard > shortcuts, and is normally pretty quick.

Quite a few people are reporting this. Let Apple know about the problem so they can fix it

I Have the same issue. I have not log out and log in again to fix it for a few pushes and then again.

I have the same problem. It is really annoying! I push Cntrl + tab, whenever the "globe" button refuses to work. It starts working again after pushing Cntrl + tab.

I have the exact same problem...

I have the same problem.

I have exactly the same problem. I have to restart the machine to have it work again.
