My computer types in qwerty only when i use firefox, even when the control pannel is set for azerty.
I just bought a new laptop with an azerty keyboard. Only when i use firefox it types in qwerty, with all the other programs and applications it types in azerty. I already changed the default keyboard to Belgium so that normally is not the problem. Is there anything i have to change in the firefox settings to be able to type in azerty. Is it because i downloaded the english version? thank you

See:
- http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/The-Language-bar-overview - The Language bar (overview)
It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident.
- Make sure that you have the Language bar visible on the Windows Taskbar.
- You can do that via the right-click context menu of the Taskbar: Toolbars > Language Bar.
- Check the keyboard language (keyboard layout) setting for the application that has focus via the icon on the Language bar.
- You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application.
- The default keys to rotate the layout is a combination (Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.
- To avoid an unintentional switch assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctr+Shift)
