+Bench. Posted July 18 #1 Share Posted July 18 Hi, I just bought a new laptop and I can't find how to get capital letters and was wondering if anyone on here can help as it's now getting on my nerves. I need capitals for my WiFi password. Thanks.

Piney Posted July 18 #2 Share Posted July 18 "Shift" like on a old typewriter? @Hammerclaw What do you think? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bench. Posted July 18 Author #3 Share Posted July 18 Yes that's correct, I have the guy calling me back tomorrow. I'm going to reboot it and see what happens. It's a refurb might be the laptop itself. Thanks for reply. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How-to Geek It won't let me access anything until I put my password in. It goes straight to internet password Got my nephew coming soon to have a look. Thanks for the help. I'll let you know how I get on.. Hopefully he'll sort it. Thanks again everyone. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bench. Posted July 18 Author #6 Share Posted July 18 Ok it was me just being a bit thick.....simply not used to doing it that way🤪 My nephew came and held the shift button down and pressed a letter and low and behold it changed. I would have posted this a couple of minutes ago but I couldn't stop laughing 🤣 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have posted this a couple of minutes ago but I couldn't stop laughing 🤣 I used to teach basic software use to hospital staff and I always tossed in the explanation of how to use the shift key to capitalize letters because the staff we trained worked in the kitchens and janitorial as well as the nurses and other technical staff. There was almost always someone who simply had never used a keyboard 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Hammerclaw Posted July 18 #10 Share Posted July 18 (edited) One of the far left wide keys should be cap lock. Edited July 18 by Hammerclaw 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
