Hi this is a new problem that I did not have a few weeks ago.
I have a Logitech Illuminated Keyboard running on Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
The problem is that I cannot type a tilde.
Instead when I press the tilde I get this character:
§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§§
I cannot for the life of me figure this out, except that I vaguely remember I can asked to redetect the Mac keyboard layout for this keyboard and I think i chose the wrong one.
Now I get this weird character when pressing tilde. How can I fix this? Or how can I redetect this keyboard layout? Thanks.

Don't know if you are still reading this but if you download a program called
Ukelele
, you can make custom keyboard maps.Then you need to put the keyboard map into
~/Library/Keyboard Layouts/
, log off and then back in.Once you have done this you can choose your custom keyboard layout and you will be able to use the ~ key without any problem (I'm using a Logitech illuminated keyboard using the default Logitech-UK keymap that comes with
Ukelele
and everything works).
