Title shortened for clarity by moderator.

Was "I'm using Illustrator cc when entering point text in only comes in vertical. How do I change it to horizontal?"

Go to the Tool panel. Click and hold on whatever Type tool is shown. You should get another small panel. You should see one tool highlighted. Try The one that shows a capital “T”. I’m on a tablet right now so I can’t show a screenshot.

Like Larry, I'm also on a tablet. But here is a link to Help with a picture of the Tools panel and the seven Type tools. Also, "T" is the shortcut for the Horizontal Type tool (only if you do not have an insertion point.)

In case you haven't fixed it already: which version and which language do you have installed?
