Just randomly my keyboard started inputting all characters incorrect.

Ex: when I type Q, an A shows up. When I type M, nothing shows up.

This is happening on my MBP keyboard AND my external Apple board.

Don't have much time to search as Im using my dads laptop right now.

Any help would be appreciated.

Oh and yes I already restarted and its still happening.

Thanks in advance!
 
I don't know why it would do that, but you could look into reseting certain parts of the computer, like the PRAM.

If that doesn't work, then I don't know.
 
Could you have it set to AZERTY mode? You'd have changed the settings in the International Preferences.

Yeah that was the issue.

But I didn't actually go into the preferences and change anything!

Is there a shortcut to change it?

I have US, French and Lithuanian selected as inputs, but it seriously changed as I was typing something.

I def did not change it myself.
