Add on keyboards with navigation keys

iOS 8 added the ability to add 3rd party keyboards, something I've wanted for a long time. But when I look at the offerings in the app store, they don't seem to offer much other than different appearance, shortcuts, different spell check, etc.
I want a keyboard with the four cursor keys, Page Up/Down, Home, End, Alt, Cmd and maybe Tab. Does anyone know of a keyboard that has those extra keys?
Note: I'm not talking about an external Bluetooth keyboard, I'm talking about apps that replace the virtual keyboard.

Keyboard shortcuts allows you to choose the key sequence used to activate any Menu Item.
If your issue is only inside Firefox, use their keyboard mapping mechanism instead, Described here:

Note: Firefox Keyboard shortcuts can be customized using the Customizable Shortcuts extension.

  • HT5636 I am using an Apple keyboard with numeric key pad.

    I have a new Mac OSX 10.9.2. I am using Bootcamp to run WIndows 8.1.
    I have just connected a new USB Apple keyboard with numeric key pad.
    All works fine in OSX. But in windows the numeric numbers on the keypad wont work.
    Numlock appears to work, but nothing happens when the number keys are pressed.
    The keys / * - +and entre all work ok. Just not the numbers.
    MIcrosoft SUPPORT REFUSED to help me because i am using a mac, they claim it is a hardware problem.

    I would look for a program which would display the ascii value of typed letters
    if i had the letter the key send one can assign that value to any other function one wish
    https://www.google.dk/search?q=program+which+display+the+acsii+of+typed+letters& oq=program+which+display+the+acsii+of+typed+letters&aqs=chrome..69i57.11855j0j4& sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#q=program+which+display+the+ascii+of+typed+let ters&spell=1
    if the program would get no ascii value from the num keyboard then I suppose ms were correct
    if not then there are tons of free programs to reassign keys as one see fit
    and even if they were not to work one can do it manually in regedit in windows

  • Creative Zen Vision 30GB - How to set IR Remote ON with Navigation keys not working in the play

    I have Creative Zen Vision 30GB player. Within a month of buying, its navigation keys stopped working. I took it to the customer service of store where I bought it and they fixed it (their solution was to make firmware update, even though I do not understand how come that can fix this issue). Anyways after another 5 months of not so often use, the same problem returned (key pad stopped working and without it this player is useless). I sent it to Creative and they returned it saying that as it has few scratches on the edges, they believe it has been hit. I never dropped the player and these are normal scratches at the end if you do not use any skin (which I could never find for this player). Btw from my other friend's experiences, Creative always does like this, never considered warranty (so beware!). Anyways now the problem is that I have IR remote for Zen vision but it can not work till IR Remote setting in System->Player Settings is switched ON. And this can not be done as the navigation keys are not working. So please please suggest me some other way if anybody of you know to enable this setting through software. Otherwise this costly player is just a 30GB harddisk for me

    Just wanted to mention - I bought the IR Remote thinking to make the player useful without navigation keys. Now I feel like I wasted more money instead of shifting to some other player by some other company with better customer service.

  • Looking for split keyboard with soft keys

    Does anyone know of a split keyboard that has keys as soft/sensitive as the powebook keys?

    Rubs me the wrong way when someone asks a question and people criticize the question, but I thought I'd pass on my experience.  I was disappointed that the "Nimitz" keyboard with the separate calculator-type numerical keypad and extra programmable buttons disappeared.  Part of the reason was that the keys on the "chicklet" board felt a little more tightly-spaced (way back in the day I had even gotten a keyboard that splayed apart and you could adjust the angle of the keys you hit with your left hand from those you hit with your right).  I didn't like the feel and I was typing more slowly (I'm a fairly quick typer).
    I started looking around to see what replacements would match the uncluttered modern look (wireless being part of that) while giving me the conventional keyboard feel.  (I'm also a keyboardist, as in synthesizer-player, so I know from the differences in tactile feel and resistance and such.)
    But the truth is I stayed with the "chicklet" keyboard.  I just got used to it.  Going back and forth from synth to piano means you never really get used to a bad keyboard feel and it affects your expressiveness.  But once I got used to the "chicklet" keyboard, now when I use a conventional typewriter-style keyboard, it feels clumsy and I find I type no faster than I do on the new one.
    My two cents.  If you find that's not so, good luck on the search for something suitable for you.  Would be nice to have the option for those who want it.

  • IMac Running Windows 7 - Wired Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keys

    I dual boot using Boot Camp into OSX or Window 7. I wanted to use both my Apple Keyboard and Mighty Mouse, but the Mighty Mouse once it lost a connection I could not get it back easily so I switched to a Logitech wireless mouse. My wired Apple keyboard works except for the numeric keyboard to the right. There is no num lock so in WIndows 7 it thinks it is the function keys associated with a PC keyboard. Help.

    Just an idea for you. There is an entire Apple Discussion forum dedicated to Boot Camp and Windows.
    Whereas, not everyone here with an Intel iMac has installed, tried to install or has experience with BC & Windows, everyone there has or at least has an interest. You may attract help more quickly there.
    The Forums are at the bottom of the main Apple Discussions page under Windows Compatible Technology. Here is a link;

  • Hardware Request: Corded backlit keyboard with black keys

    When I bought my MBP I thought it's backlit keyboard was just some silly feature.
    Well ... now I can't live without it. Thanks Apple.
    The problem now is that I use my MBP for work plugged into a big monitor , mouse and keyboard. I have a very good keyboard from logitech (MX3000), and now I hate this lightless *******.
    What I'm asking is something you could name Keyboard Pro, with numerical keypad, additional USB ports (like the current one), black keys (white ones get dirty very easy) and that magical light beneath it. Put some macro recording keys and I'll go crazy.
    Hurry up, or I might burn $130 in that Razer Black Widow Ultimate.

    Hi and welcome to Discussions,
    in this Forum we are all just Users.
    Very seldom that an Apple employee reads this.
    So, why not tell Apple directly through an 'official channel' here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • Setting up new keyboard with function keys

    Hi,
    I just attached an older mac USB keyboard (from the G3 era) to my MacBook. It works fine, but I want to know how I can setup my function keys to change the volume, display brightness, etc. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

    I still don't know how to program in volume and brightness keys, but it doesn't look like anyone else does so I'll mark this as answered.

  • Unable to find the Add-on SAP_BS_FND Keep with Vendor Key

    I am upgrading from EHPI Support Pack Stack 3 to Stack4, I am now stuck at the Configuration stage of the roadmap phase IS_SELECT - Keep the present version of the add-on (Keep (with vendor
    key)). I wanted to keep the add-on SAP_BS_FOUNDATION with Stack 3 asthere is no Stack 4.
    How to find the Key information or the note. Also please find the attached Screenshot of the same.
    Regards,
    Karthik Ravoori

    Hi Mukesh Kakani,
    In case you have installed an SEM, E-Recruiting or SAP Learning Management system, which technically means that an SAP ERP software component (ERECRUIT, SEM-BW, FINBASIS or LSOFE) is installed in your SAP NetWeaver system, you must not use a stack configuration file created for an SAP ERP system. Instead, you have to use a stack configuration file for SAP NetWeaver (either downloaded from SAP Service Marketplace or created by SAP Solution Manager Maintenance
    Optimizer)."
    So you qualify in this pre-condition: you have SEM-BW and FINBASIS installed on your NetWeaver system
    "Maintain your SEM, E-Recruiting or SAP Learning Management system as an ERP system in SMSY in order to download the EHP packages and to be able to maintain the system. Afterwards you must not use the generated Stack XML, but instead use a generated Stack XML from SAP Service Marketplace and include the packages for ERECRUIT, SEM-BW, FINBASIS or LSOFE in the IS_SELECT phase during the installation of EHP1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0."
    In order to for you to proceed, you are able to apply SP4 using SPAM and JSPM. But when upgrading the next system in your landscape, please alternate XML file as proposed above. This will prevent the installation of the ECC component SAP_BS_FND and avoid the reoccurance of this issue.
    Regards

  • Keyboard with more soft keys

    I have recently bought HP Compaq 6730b notebook (product number: NB019EA#AKD). It is a good notebook but there is one issue that I don't like. Pressing keys on keyboard is too hard for me to be comfortable. My local HP call center told that HP doesn't have replacement keyboards with softer keys. Of course I expected this answer. But they also told that I can try to obtain keyboard replacement from other producers. There can be some keyboards from no name companies that can be more soft. Do you know such keyboards? I don't want to buy one and pay for transport to my country if I am not sure about it if it is better keyboard than I already have.
    My keyboard number is 487136-B31, but I think that it is common for all HP keyboards.

    Generally what do you think about keyboards in HP? Do you think similarly as I or not?

  • IPad case with 10 key?

    Is there an iPad case with keyboard that includes the 10 key OR is there a case that carries the iPad and a full keyboard? I want something that is compact without having to separately carry the keyboard or the number pad.  I am a CPA so not having the 10 key is a deal breaker for me.  Thanks!

    All the cases I've seen for the iPad are basically the same size as the iPad, which means they're too small to have a 10-key.  Even the keyboards on those "keyboard cases" have to make the keys a little smaller than normal due to the iPad's size.  (Roughly 90-92% of normal.)
    I know you said you didn't want a separate keyboard, but one of the few "portable" keyboards with 10-key I've seen is the Matias:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Matias/FK204/
    I have not personally used that model so I don't know what the feel of the keys are, but I don't know of any more keyboard still being sold that have 10-key and are "portable".  You could use any Bluetooth keyboard, but pretty much everything else with a 10-key is a not-so-portable desktop keyboard.
    There is the LMP 10-key add on to the Apple Wireless Keyboard.
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/H4606ZM/A/lmp-bluetooth-keypad?fnode=MTY1NDA1M g&s=topSellers
    I have not tried it on the iPad, but if it does work, then the Apple keyboard could work for you.  It would be a little larger than a "true portable keyboard", but that might not be a bad thing since too small of a keyboard would probably cause more typos for you.

  • Use standard ISO keyboard with MacBook?

    Hi all, does anyone know a way I can use a standard ISO keybaord, either USB or bluetooth, with my macbook?
    I'm a developer and find Apple ones too flat/nice looking and terrible for coding on. When I plug in my nice chunky dell keyboard, it is recognised but I can't use the Windows key as the Apple key, making it unusable.
    Does anyone know a way to map the keys to the Apple ones, or a good coding keyboard with chunky keys that I can buy?
    Thanks!
    T

    Yeah, I used an old PC plug in one that worked fine, I just plugged it into my display so there were still only three cords into my MBP.  Then I got the bluetooth keyboard from apple about a week ago and there have been no problems, its like there is no difference (except the apple keyboard is way better to type on!)

  • HT201178 when using apple bluetooth keyboard with iPad, hitting the enter/return key while typing in iMessage only adds another line not 'send' the message? is there a setting to change that somewhere?

    when using apple bluetooth keyboard with iPad, hitting the enter/return key while typing in iMessage only adds another line not 'send' the message? is there a setting to change that somewhere?

    Everywhere that I've checked it is not possible to do this. I would like to even do this using the vkb. I hate having to stretch my thumb all the way up just to send a message. It's messaging, not a report or email. Seems backwards. Hopefully some day Apple can add this option.

  • Soft Navigator Key in the virtual keyboard

    Hi 
    I don't know whether anybody has such issue :-
    In any text input field, if you want to insert a word at the begging of the sentence, is it very difficult to move the cursor with my finger?
    For instance:
    I composed a text message "will meet you later", but now I want to add "I" at the beginning of the text, so the full sentence will be "I will meet you later".  
    The issue is I have problem to move the cursor in front of the "will ...."
    I know this is not a problem, it should be a enhance feature. Like Sougo IME, there is a soft navigator key pad will be easier for the big finger user.
    what advise?
    Regards 

    Assuming it's an Apple layout keyboard, hold down the command key.  When you hit the space bar once, the menu of available languages will pop up, and you can toggle between them with the space bar.  After you find the language you want, release the command key.

  • HT5176 I have a disability that limits my keyboarding abilities and speed.  A blue tooth add-on keyboard will provide some help.  However, I expect to rely on the dictation function.  Will "dictation" work in conjunction with a wireless keyboard?

    I have a disability that limits my keyboarding abilities and speed.  A blue tooth add-on keyboard will provide some help.  However, I expect to rely on the dictation function on the ipad 3.  Inasmuch as the blue tooth keyboards have no "dictation key, will "dictation" work in conjunction with a wireless keyboard?

    I also have admiration for Steve Jobs.  I've been a Mac user since 1984.
    Given that a wireless keyboard will not have the dictation key, there ought to be some way to work around this issue. All that is needed is some way to toggle between keyboard input and microphone input. Perhaps using AppleScript and/or a hot key, I can set up a voice command or define a hotkey to toggle between the 2 inputs.
    What do you think?

  • How do I turn on long press keyboard to write the same character many times with one keystroke only? I can only write 1 letter at a time with each key press. To write "aaaaa" I need to press 5 times the A key. I didn't use to do this.

    I know this has something to do with INSERT key in Windows I guess. But suddenly I was using Mac OS X Lion and a keyboard sign appeared in the top bar, and the keyboard didnt work as it usually does. I mean, I wanted the long press key to write multiple caracters of course. Please help!

    It's now a hidden option that can be turned on with a terminal command.  The easiest way to do this is to download TinkerTool from this site:
    http://www.bresink.com/osx/0TinkerTool/download.php5
    Then go to Tinkertool > General tab > Select "support key repeat".
    Logoff and login again.
