P: Shortcuts don't work anymore after upgrade to MacOS Monterey (I use non-English keyboard)

Hi, is there anyone with MacOS Monterey using Adobe apps and non-English keyboard?

 

After upgrade to Monterey the vast majority of shortcuts stopped working for me -- almost everything including Shift / Alt and special symbols, which are different on English and Czech keyboard, which I am using. I work in Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign and XD. The problem occurs in all of them.

 

I am absolutely frustrated because I am a shortcuts-freak. I found a partial solution – it is possible to manually add all shortcuts for any specific app – but sorry, it is really time consuming and temporary (I use more devices, so that if would be neccessary to set it up on every devices). I will be glad for any tip to re-enable all shortcuts that worked for me for many years.

I currently use MacBook Pro 16'' Intel i9 (2019), everything is up to date.

I think the problem is here: when you press CMD, the keyboard layout does not change. I made a video showing the problem: https://youtu.be/NnN48M1k2X

You are right dokulilales. Non-working shortcuts (like cmd-0 for showing full page in a window), which is (in my case on Czech keyboard) obtained by pressing cmd-é, was the first thing I have noticed in InDesign after upgrading to macOS 10.12 Monterey. At least I see I’m not alone dealing with this issue. I’m going to ask Apple as well once martino90325442 sees the problem on Apple’s side. 

 

Thanks guys for posting.

I have the same problem. 

Since in the Czech Republic we have for example on the right side of the L key an Ů key, when trying to hide/show guides, the program gets command+Ů, rather than command+;.

In the past, there was no problem on the Czech version of the keyboard.

I have the same problem, but not only in Adobe programs, but also in others. I think the problem is on Apple's side. It's weird that no one on the web solves this. Keyboard shortcuts don't work for me in Sublime Text, Atom, etc.
