    Number instead of letters coming up
    5 a0 hav5ng th5s *r6b3e0
    I am having this problem, when I type I am getting the blue numbers on the respective keys typing in instead of the letters,I have to hold the function key down to get the letters. Please help.
    The above is how it comes out without holding keys down.

    Thank you
