Hello, new member here. I am slowly building my Samsung device collection, and this question is actually about a keyboard for the TAB S5E that I have a question about. I bought it in a bundle at Costco a couple of months ago, but there is an annoying problem maybe you can help me with.

 

Some of the keys have multiple characters on them, for example the number 2 key also has the " and @ symbols. Using shift only gives me the " symbol, how do I get the @ symbol? I have tried the ALT GR, ALT, CRTL, ALT + shift etc.

I called Samsung support to ask about this, and they do not seem to know what I am talking about.

This is a Samsung accessory, so any help would be most appreciated. Thank you.

Change your language. Make sure you have the French and English keyboard installed. Then you just need to hit the Lang button and do Shift+2 to get @

+1  Appears your language settings for the keyboard is incorrect.  Ensure you have English (Canada) selected

I am not sure what you mean. I do hold the shift key, but there are MULTIPLE symbols on the number keys. If I hold shift +2 I get " not @.
