Try caps large and press on apostrophe (like in a Qwerty type board on your computer.
thank you henkie for your reply to my post.
i must be missing something here; but , out of all the punctuaton marks displayed on the z8 online keyboard [ tried caps lock option ] i cannot locate the apostrophe mark.

Hi,i am not familiar with the z8 online keyboard (is it the same as Gboard on z10/11 ?)
You might wanna try Google the answer to your question,i did so for my computer,with search question like"apostrohe,likein i am"
Or in Windows by using co-pilot option.
Hope this helps
I tried out your search on my Z11 ;what you might try is type I,then switch on your Gboard to ?123,then you can find the apostrophe, and now type m
Forget about capslock,it only works on laptop!
Hi
Sorry, I don't know the Z8 either, but can't you install another keyboard (like eg Leankey?)?

Or Gboard,as it defenitely works there,maybe available in Playstore?
henkie,
i do not know if the z8 online keyboard is the same as the gboard.
woste...... thank you. i did not know it was possible to change the z8 keyboard to an alternative.... is it easy to do
on the z8 k/b i have tried both the abc and 123 options without success........ no apostrophe found.

Did you search for leankey or another one in the Google play store?
woste
if i find leankey in playstore; how do i put it to use instead of the z8 keyboard.
sorry, but i am not tech savvy.
if leankey is successfully put in place , will i be able to carry on as i have normally done since i bought the z8 4 years ago [ with the benefit of having access to the apostrophe mark of course ]

Have you tried searching without using the apostrophe?
None of the titles in my provider's programme list have them anyway.
e.g. I'm Alan Partridge is listed as Im Alan Partridge.
thanks fox radio,
i have tried searching without including the apostrophe.......... no results found.

Hi
As said I don't have a Z8, but probably in menu > keyboard or so and choose the alternative keyboard.
Another suggestion : try with a mini-usbkeyboard (one that has the apostrophe key of course).
I find it a bit odd that the apostrophe isn't included as default. There are many obscure characters that will probably never be used, but for some strange reason there's no apostrophe.
thanks woste,
as i said i am not tech savvy and am nervous to experiment with anything outside of my original z8 settings which have worked very well for me over the past 4 years.
the apostrophe issue does not affect titles like for e.g schindler's list .only; from my experience, titles like i'm still here.
