Spanish accents

Hi,


I used to be able to add accents in to my documents when I would type (Macbook air). I would basically just hold the key down and select which accent I needed, however now for some reason it doesn't do that anymore and looks like this instead: nnnnnnn, or aaaaa, eeeee, etc.


Have I pressed something by mistake or is there anything I can do for it to go back to normal?


Thank you :)

Hi,

To get accent on the Mac, hold down the Option key, and while holding it down, type the letter e; then release those keys and type the letter that you want the accent to appear on: á = Option + e, then a. é = Option + e, then e.
