You keyboard is set to US settings. You need to change to UK or Irish language.
What OS are you using?

You have your keyboard set to US

Change it to English (Ireland / UK) in the language menu of control panel

one of the differences is the "@ key and the ' ' key are reversed.
so instead of going shift apostrophe, you just go shift 2.

but of course the best option is change the settings from the US version.
