How to do music notes, love hearts and other symbols in Facebook status updates and chat
You now know how to add Facebook emoticons to your chats, but do you want to know how you can add hearts, music notes and other cool symbols to your Facebook status and chats?
There are two ways!
1) Copy Facebook symbols from here!
♥ – love heart
♫ – big musical note
♪ – small musical note
☺ – smilie face
☻ – smilie face #2
☼ – sunshine
2) Do the Facebook symbols yourself!
This works for some people and not for others, but each of these characters can be typed on your keyboard using the ‘alt’ button.
First, if you’re on a laptop make sure you ‘Num Lock’ is on! The ‘Num Lock’ button is on the top right of your keyboard.
Next, hold down ‘alt’ (the one in the bottom left of your keyboard) and press type the following:
Hold ‘alt’ then type 2 – ☻
Hold ‘alt’ then type 3 – ♥
Hold ‘alt’ then type 4 – ♦
Hold ‘alt’ then type 5 – ♣
Hold ‘alt’ then type 6 – ♠
Hold ‘alt’ then type 7 – •
Hold ‘alt’ then type 8 – ◘
Hold ‘alt’ then type 9 – ○
Hold ‘alt’ then type 10 – ◙
Hold ‘alt’ then type 11 – ♂
Hold ‘alt’ then type 12 – ♀
Hold ‘alt’ then type 13 – ♪
Hold ‘alt’ then type 14 – ♫
Hold ‘alt’ then type 15 – ☼
Hold ‘alt’ then type 16 – ►
Hold ‘alt’ then type 17 – ◄
Hold ‘alt’ then type 18 – ↕
Hold ‘alt’ then type 19 – ‼ (it’s one character!)
Hold ‘alt’ then type 20 – ¶

Thanks

karis, press hold the function key [fn] and press the number lock key [num lk]. once the number lock is on the following keys become the same as a number pad:
m (=0) ,j (=1),k (=2),l (=3) ,u (=4),i (=5),o (=6),7 (=7) ,8 (=8),9 (=9)
fn and num lk to release the number lock.

♫ Ok, for all the LAPTOP users! It took me all day to figure this out! hold down Fn key and F11 together, Fn is grey on the bottom left side of your keyboard. Then the green light on F11 turn on. Now you can hold down ALT key and type 14 ♫ tada!

MAKE SURE YOU’RE USING THE NUMBER PAD NUMBERS AND NOT THE OTHERS.

Yeah you found the beginning to this, but I have found the whole list and here it is. Hold ‘alt’ and enter any number from 1-31 to get (☺ ☻ ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ • ◘ ○ ◙ ♂ ♀ ♪ ♫ ☼ ► ◄ ↕ ‼ ¶ § ▬ ↨ ↑ ↓ → ← ∟ ↔ ▲ ▼)or numbers 127-254 for the following (⌂ Ç ü é â ä à å ç ê ë è ï î ì Ä Å É æ Æ ô ö ò û ù ÿ Ö Ü ¢ £ ¥ 1 ƒ á í ó ú ñ Ñ ª º ¿ ⌐ ¬ ½ ¼ ¡ « » ░ ▒ ▓ │ ┤ ┤ ╢ ╖ ╕ ╣ ║ ╗ ╝ ╜ ╛ ┐ └ ┴ ┬ ├ ─ ┼ ╞ ╟ ╚ ╔ ╩ ╦ ╠ ═ ╬ ╧ ╨ ╤ ╥ ╙ ╘ ╒ ╓ ╫ ╪ ┘ ┌ █ ▄ ▌ ▀ α ß Γ π Σ σ µ τ Φ Θ Ω δ ∞ φ & ∩ ≡ ± ≥ ≤ ⌠ ⌡ ÷ ≈ ° ∙ · √ ⁿ ² ■)Between 31 and 127 are all of the standard letters and symbols. That list has foreign language letter, more equation symbols, and most of the Greek alphabet.

there is an upside down question mark just to confuse people ¿¿¿¿¿ its alt + 0191
November 16, 2009 at 8:04 pm
Okay, for all you MAC users, just copy and paste the symbol u want to use. IDK if anyone else has already said it, but I am also a MAC user and i make them all the time.

November 29, 2009 at 8:16 pm
On a Dell Inspiron it’s ‘Fn’ + ‘Alt’ and then use the “number pad” (they’re marked in blue next to the normal key marking)

You can’t add them in your Facebook name, only in your status. You can put them in your MSN name though.

Thanks for this feed, it finally worked for me on my lap top, gateway windows vista, using the alt, Fn and the choosing the numbers in blue on the Letter buttons, such as on J there is the number 1 in blue.
Great thanks so much everyone ♪☼♀♪
