Some specific behaviors I'm observing in Microsoft Word 2011 on my Mac:
- Shift + F moves the cursor into the Find box on the toolbar, instead of typing a "F" character.
- Shift + 9 opens help instead of typing a "(".
It seems like the Shift key is functioning as a Command key. I haven't made any changes to my Word settings to customize keyboard shortcuts. I did install another IME last night and configure the shortcuts to switch between IMEs, but the behavior only occurs in MS Word.
Any ideas on restoring default functionality?

It's possible you could try resetting the default shortcuts from the settings...
