P: Crashing when writing caption metadata

Lightroom crashes when I hit the circumflex accent to enter text in the Keyword List or the Metadata section. Using Lightroom Classic 13.0.1, Sonoma on a Mac Studio M1 Ultra. A friend who has the same setup was able to reproduce that behaviour also.

P.S. My workaround is to write the text in another application then copy and paste it in Lightroom.

Bonjour, oui c'esr la même chose sur la version espganole.

Adobe est au courant du bug et travaiile dessus.

Ok thanks, I'll try not to use special characters, I use a Spanish keyboard.

Waitng for the next release.

In my case, this is my keyboard

I have just added English standard layout. While this is active I can use the (') key without crashing.

Ahh.. Sorry for the formatting there.

I can use any other keys on keyboard in keyword area. Its when this one hits it crashes.

I use Apple's keyboard layout for Latvian language and custom made, this error happens on both of them. 

The moment I type any of these charachters it crashes. I have standard apple keyboard, but in order to acsess these letters for latvian alphabeth I have to use combination of two different keystrokes. For ē - ("+e), for ķ - ("+k). App crashes at the moment I hit the (") key.

I can use any other keys on keyboard in keyword area. Its when this one hits it crashes.

I use Apple's keyboard layout for Latvian language and custom made, this error happens on both of them. 

"Crash whenever enter any of the special charachters like "āēšķūī" etc. are written in keywod field in Library module."

Does this occur when you copy/paste the characters into the Keywording panel, or just when you type them directly from the keyboard?  

If it happens when typing on the keyboard, then:

1. Please post a careful phone pic of the entire keyboard.

2. Which language do you have selected for the Mac OS input language, e.g.

This will help Adobe understand the scope of the issue.

If this occurs when copy/pasting into the Keywording field, then you may be encountering a different problem than others in this thread, and we'll need to get more details. 

My educated guess is that the non-English keyboard bug will be fixed in LR 13.1, likely due in December (I have no inside information).

Subject is self explanatory of this bug - Crash whenever enter any of the special charachters like "āēšķūī" etc. are written in keywod field in Library module.

Im on LR 13.0.1, Mac Sonoma 14.1.1

At the start i though this might be related to a bug where lightroom has errors when acsessing catalog on external drive, but this also accurs when catalog is stored on local drive. Tested on a brand new catalog and lightroom crashes instantly. Has this been resolved btw?

I have keyworded photos in catalog for more 10 years using these charchters in Latvian language and had no issues prior to this release.

Very keenly looking forward to fixing this issue and catalog reading issue from external drive.
