I don't know how this happened or how to fix it but my friends are not going to be able to read what I post. My son just moved to a new city and gave me his lap top. Could he have set me up with a time bomb to goof on me? Help! Or as I like to say" "cho hu fox iw gibberish".

Note - I don't do Facebook so I have no idea what to check. Good luck!

(8,492 posts)My DIL is Japanese. She used my computer, switched it to Kanji and forgot to switch it back. I went through 8 hours of withdrawal until I could get a hold of her and asked her how she did it so I could switch it back.
She apologized for about a week.
