How do I Make a Heart Symbol with my Keyboard

June 1, 2009

“How do people make those cool little heart symbols on their keyboards?”

To make a little heart with your keyboard enter ♥  you will see a cute little heart like this ♥.

Another way you can make a hearts symbol is by using the ALT key and your numeric keypad together, that’s the number keypads on the right hand side of your keyboard not the numbers on top of your keyboard. Press the ALT key and the number 3 key at the same time (ALT + 3) to get the same heart symbol. Let me try it right now, ♥. There it worked like a charm, much faster than the other method I showed above ♥ this is kinda fun ♥.

Some other fun ALT key symbols:

ALT + 1 = ☺
ALT + 2 = ☻
ALT + 3 = ♥
ALT + 4 = ♦
ALT + 5 = ♣
ALT + 6 = ♠
ALT + 7 = •
ALT + 8 = ◘
ALT + 9 = ○

ALT + 14 = ♫ Musical Note
ALT + 15 = ☼ Sunshine Symbol
ALT + 0169 = © Copyright Symbol
ALT + 0153 = ™ Trademark Symbol
ALT + 0174 = ® Registered Symbol

It didn’t work at first until I figured out wat was wrong with the directions. Here’s the right way to do it.
DIRECTIONS: HOLD the Alt BUTTON DOWN and then press the number 3 ONCE, push the number pad only DON’T HOLD DOWN, and then RELEASE the ALT BUTTON! Then there u go!
♥♥♥☺☻♠♦◘○•◘○◙♀♪♫☼♂
TRY IT WITH VARIOUS NUMBERS!
THE NUMBERS ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE KEYBOARD NOT ON TOP!
It also worked on Microsoft Words for me!

holly August 24, 2010 at 11:47 am

If u can’t do it just copy and paste the symbols ♫ ♪

♥lauren♥ August 24, 2010 at 7:39 pm

No! It does NOT work. Nothing does. I tried top numbers. Side numbers. AND copy paste. Actually some of them do work when I copy paste this is weird. Look.
ALT + 1 = []
ALT + 2 = []
ALT + 3 = []
ALT + 4 = []
ALT + 5 = []
ALT + 6 = []
ALT + 7 = •
ALT + 8 = []
ALT + 9 = ○

ALT + 14 = [] Musical Note
ALT + 15 = [] Sunshine Symbol
ALT + 0169 = © Copyright Symbol
ALT + 0153 = ™ Trademark Symbol
ALT + 0174 = ® Registered Symbol

karrie August 29, 2010 at 3:29 pm

in order for the codes to work you have to use your key pad on the right. not the numbers on top.

if you have a mac……..
go to facebook, click where you want the symbol to go, then go up to edit at the top click,click again on special characters, chose your symbol and click enter.
Hope this helps ✌

it doesnt work for me

Louise September 20, 2010 at 4:12 pm

You have to hold down ‘Alt’ and press ’3′ once – at the same time to get a heart.

Note – it’s not ‘Alt Gr’ it’s just – ‘Alt’

♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♣♣©☼◙♫♣

I held ‘Alt’ and typed ’3333′ or ‘Alt’ and ’5′ to get – ♣

Experiment with holding down ‘Alt’ and typing any number key four times!

‘Alt’ and ’9999′ is – ☼
‘Alt’ and ’8888′ is – ©
‘Alt’ and ’6666′ is – ◙
‘Alt’ and ’5′ is – ♣
‘Alt’ and ’14′ is – ♫

It only works on the side number keys though, not the ones running across the top!

alice September 20, 2010 at 5:51 pm
