Q: Caps lock and Shift Key behavior

Hi,

 

I am using mac from 3 years now but just notice one bug or feature in Key board.

If my caps lock is on and I type any character with Shift press I am expecting character in lower case but it is always coming up in Capital. So looks like caps lock is not changing behavior of shift key. Is this always like this or is there any configuration that I can change.

    Hello!

    Please make sure that this is done:

    In System Preferences under keyboard, at the bottom right should be a button titled "Modifier Keys"

    Make Sure That Caps Lock Is selected To Act As Caps Lock.

    Thanks Carson for reply.

    May be I not able to explain the problem earlier. Caps Lock is working perfectly fine. As my understanding and hows the windows or linux  keyboard works with this scenario I am expecting lower case character when I have Caps lock ON and I press any character with  Shift Key.

    Step 1 :Caps Lock On

    Step 2: Shift Key + I  <<You can press any character>>

    Expected result Is "A" but result COMES AS "A"

    Ah,

    Try going to System Preferences » Keyboard » Modifier Keys » Restore Defaults

    This should eliminate the issue.
