Pardon, but I don't get it...
I typed the \shorthandon{"} after the \begin{document} but it didn't work!
And all my frames, incl. the titlepage are after the \begin{document}, as you said. So I still can't spot the mistake, nor do I understand your suggestions!

And yes I posted the same question on an other forum as well, but noone ...
