I can;t seem to type apostrophes...

OK, so I did that one on purpose, but it does seem that half the times that I try to write them, I get the semicolon instead. It's quite frustrating too, because I know it's not an issue with my computer or anything, but the problem is with me, the typists. Generally I am able to correct them quickly and fix them before posting, but alas a few semicolons get through quite often anyway. And until I fix this recurring error, half my "can'ts" will be "can;ts". Are there any recurring typing mistakes that you make, and if so, what is it?

Hello brian, Well, I am also experiencing this a lot of times, most especially if I am already tired. I always seemed to hit the wrong key. I can type without looking the keyboard because I have already memorized the keyboard. but the problem their is if you don't look at the keyboard and your finger is in the wrong position, not in the home base. Also at times, when I am in a hurry with my typing, I hit F12 instead of backspace. So there appear option to save. And using ctrl button instead of shift. That is why before I start typing, I always see to it my fingers are in the correct position. Happy mylotting!

For me it is backspace and \ It feels so silly that even though I can type out all other things without any problem, only when pressing backspace this occurs and I accidentally press backslash! I can type all other things without any mistake but, this, I can't correct even if I have done this mistake so many times.

That somehow seems worse than mine. I want to type something and I get something else. But you want to delete.

the mistake I make most is proofreading what I wrote while reaching for the send button and then hitting it before I get to the end of the sentence.

I don;t do that, but I do often see a mistake by chance, after I've already hit send (when myLot's going slow, you don't really have much to do but reread your post as it is waiting to send I guess ).

for me it's E and W. I often make mistake to type E and instead of it, type W.

I'm sorry that happens to you, but glad that I'm not alone.
