How to change function keys not listed in keyboard preferences?

Hi,
I am trying to delete the f14 and f15 function keys which now set brightness. I want to use these for photoshop actions, but can't now. Also, shift/f12 opens the dock and I'd like to remove that as well. The keyboard pref. doesn't not list these are being set and I can't turn them off.
Thanks -
Stu

I don't think Apple provides a simple way to change or override keyboard shortcuts that affect hardware functions like screen brightness, except in a limited way for laptops that have an FN key.
The shifted versions of Dashboard & Expose shortcuts are among the weird little "eye candy" features of Tiger. Adding "shift" to the shortcut does the same thing as the unshifted version, but v..e..r..y s..l..o..w..l..y, at least on Macs that support advanced Quartz display features.
As noted, you can change the shortcuts for Dashboard & Expose, but I'm not sure if the slow motion, 'shifted' forms are inherited by any other key combination besides the F9 through F12 ones.
[Edit]:
For a really weird effect, try holding down shift & tapping a random sequence of F9 through F12 strokes: because everything is slowed down, you can have several Expose effects occurring at once on the screen.

Changing function keys to symbols

Hi,
I used to have an ibook with a wireless keyboard, and on the wireless keyboard I had reassigned the function keys so that they had symbols that I use all the time. f1 Ø etc, however I have now bought a new macbook and these no longer work. I've been trying to work out for ages how I did it so I can reassign them but can't remember how I got up the keyboard map to do it, could someone let me know?
thanks very much
vbw

I can never
remember the key codes for the three extra letters in
the Danish alphabet!
æ Option + '
ø Option + o
å Option + a
If you want to put them elsewhere, one possibility is to make a custom layout with Ukelele:

How to change the Function Keys functionality?

Hello everyone I'm new here :)
I have a stupid big problem which is whenever I try to click the function keys in Programs, Games, etc.. it doesn't work for that program or game it just does what's on them!
For an example when I click on F10 or F9 it changes the volume, and when I click on F2 and F3 they change the brightness of the screen!!! And F5 doesnt refresh!!! Thats it they do nothing else at all, how can I change that to their old original ways like in Windows Vista and XP!!!
I'm not sure if the problem is with Windows or Toshiba Laptop, I have a Toshiba Satellite Windows 8.
Pleaaaaaaaaase someone help! This is urgent.

You can change it to work in standard mode.
To do this open Toshiba desktop Assist > System settings > Keyboard and change Function keys mode to Standard F1-F12 mode.
After restart check it again.

Changing functionality of Function Keys in forms 10g

Dear users....One of the big difficulties users facing in my 10g forms applications is that its Function Keys have totally changed like that of Enter-Query or Execute-Query. In forms 6i user was habitual of working with F-7 & F-8 for this purpose but in 10g its quite different. Can u tell me that how can I match the functionality of these Function Keys in 10g to that of Forms-6i???

Hey Arun...I've read urs recommended post, I wish to give u 10 pts if u give me the answer for this question too ;) Can I use my newly created fmrweb.res in my own application? I mean other users should keep on using the default fmrweb.res file but I should use the file compatible with 6i shortcut keys. Is there any configuration for this in formsweb.conf file?

You do not tell us what OS version you have. In OS 10.8.2, do this:
Apple Menu / System Preferences / Language and Text / Input Sources.
Select the language you want. Mine is set to Canadian English.

L420 Screen Brightness does not change with Function Keys

I have installed the latest driers and since then I am unable to change the screen brightness using function keys. I have installed multiple driver updates hence it is difficult to find out which driver is causing the issue. Any pointers in this regards would be a good help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The newest Intel HD driver (from Intel) is causing this issue. Uninstall it and reinstall the driver provided from Lenovo.

F1 and F2 keys won't change to standard function keys even after changing keyboard preferences.

I want to use the function keys on my MacBook Pro as standard function keys. I checked the box in keyboard settings that's supposed to change this, and I changed the Mission Control shortcuts that corresponded with function keys. F3-F12 all seem to have gotten the message, but F1 and F2 still change the screen brightness and won't work as standard function keys no matter what I do. How can I fix this?

Is there a way to Change the Function keys on a bluetooth keyboard for ipad

I just got kensington wireless keyboard for my ipad 2 but the program that i am using dosent allow me to use the function keys instead for volume, brightness ect.

I have had to explain often that no pressure is needed. It's a "touch" screen, not a "press" screen. Most people believe they have to push down hard to make some sort of contact.

New keyboard, function keys have changed, how to get standard functions back?

Hi, I recently just bought a new keyboard with numerics and when i hook it up, all my function keys are different. F12 now shows me the date and time/calculator. F11 scoots my open boxes do the side.
how do i get it back to the standard functions? ie, F1-F2 controling brightness, F10,11 and 12 controling sound.

Is this a new Apple wired keyboard? Perhaps model MB110LL/B?

[SOLVED] Function Keys Problem On Dell Inspiron N5010

Yesterday I bought a new laptop (Dell Inspiron N5010) and immediately installed Arch Linux on it. But when I launched the installation framework, I needed to use fdisk to partition my drive manually and to open another tty, ctrl + alt + f2 or up to f7, none of them worked. When I use f4 or f5 for example, it changes the brightness of the screen cause these keys have icons on them which represent the brightness control. So I quitted, took care of that fdisk issue and got back, installed Arch Linux successfully. When launched in GNOME 3, nothing was changed. It still uses f1, f2, ... and so on as "just function keys" without using "Fn" key. It's fine somehow cause my system automatically detected those keys, I can use every single function of my keyboard. But without using Fn key, I can't actually use any fx key for my own use. For example, I can't use Tilda anymore cause when I use only f1, it tries to open monitor control stuff.
So... any ideas?
Edit: It seems that this problem is all about Arch Linux. A friend of mine has the same laptop and he has just tried Mint Debian RC and function keys worked properly. So, there's a problem and it seems it's related to Arch Linux (or maybe Xorg version, somehow?).

I switched it in the bios so I don't have to hit the function key to activate the F keys. So I would have had to hit Fn+Ctrl-Alt-F1 for example to get to TTY 1. Now since i switched it off in the bios All I have to do is hit Ctrl-Alt-F1 to get to the terminal. But in order to turn off wifi from the F key (for example) I have to hit Fn+F2. It's switched.
I can't tell you how this was helpful. I've never noticed that there was an option in BIOS's Advanced menu for this. I updated it as "Function Key" and it solved my problem, thanks.

X1 Carbon 2014 Function keys not working in windows7

Hello.
I have a brand new X1 carbon(model: 20A7-005KMD) that was installed with our company image, running windows 7.
Alle drivers in device manager has been installed, and system update is updated.
The carbon has the "touch" function keys and they only partly work.
When booting the computer i can swap between the different functions, but when i get into windows, its is "stuck" with only the options F1-F12. The F keys work, but i cant change settings by pressing the FN key on the left side og the touch display, and get sounds/brightness settings etc.
as said, this works just fine during the boot.
Any ideas what can be causing this and even more important - a fix?

Hi Guys,
We are currently having the same issue on the X1 Carbon 20A7 models (20A7000LAU). In BIOS or during boot the function changing works without issue (limited to two (2) function screens how-ever), it stops working once you log in. If you then lock the computer you can change the functions, but then once you unlock the device, it stops working.
When the drivers are installed and the device is restart we get the above behaviour, if we uninstall the drivers the function keys will function as expected till the device is restarted. This is very strange behaviour.
On a device received by Lenovo there are 4 function changes/screens in total, we can only make two work temporarily as listed above. We have tried the following.
1. MDT 2013 Delivered Windows 8.1 x64 image image. All drivers/software components installed from the lenovo website. We receive above issue and cannot resolve by uninstall/reinstalling.
2. Vanilla Windows 8.1 ENT x64 image installed from Microsoft Volume Licensing portal, installed all drivers supplied from the Lenovo Website. The same behaviour is seen as above and is reproducable.
3. We have als compared all drivers/software installed on the factory supplied model to a manually built device, still the above behaviour is witnessed.
4. We have manually exported drivers from the X1 Carbon device from lenovo and injected them into the vanilla Windows 8.1 ENT or PRO newly imaged device, still the same behaviour above.
Please let me know what I'm missing, I'm certain this is a bug in the drivers for this model.
Regards,
Nic

Function keys not working in XP under Boot Camp

I have a slight problem with Boot Camp with XP.
When I first installed it long ago, I recall there was a Boot Camp icon in the Windows tool bar, and the function keys could be used to change the volume, brightness, and keyboard backlight. Now, there isn't, and they don't.
I've run 'repair' from the Leopard DVD, but still the functionality hasn't returned. This is particularly irritating within a game because I can't even change the volume without quitting to desktop.
Note that the Boot Camp partition is also used by Parallels, just in case that's a factor. Other than that, I can't think what it was I might have done to have caused whatever Boot Camp installed to facilitate this functionality, be removed/disabled.
Any ideas how I can repair it without starting again from scratch?

I'm having similar issues with no real luck. The only 'solution' I've found is to manually start the KbdMgr.exe program each and everytime I turn on Windows. The program is in the Bootcamp folder, and I put a shortcut on my desktop.
KbdMgr is set to start with Windows, but it doesn't. I've even done a repair install of Windows, removed and reinstalled Bootcamp drivers with no success. I can't find an actual solution anywhere, just workarounds.

How do you reset the special keyboard function keys?

I used to use an older external keyboard that had Dashboard as F4. Now I got a newer keyboard that has Launchpad as F4. I was used to the old way, so I went into the keyboard shortcut for Dashboard and set it as F4. To my disappointment, however, it only works when I hold 'fn'. (I didn't expect this, as when the key was set to F13 holding fn wasn't required.) So anyway, that is even worse, and I wanted to change it back. However, it wouldn't let me. (In Launchpad & Dock > Keyboard Shortcuts, there used to be a checkmark next to Show Launchpad with a blank area on the right, but now when I try to click Restore Defaults, it forces me to choose a key... and pressing F4 without holding fn doesn't register.) And I know I can make it use all function keys as standard function keys, but not just for F4. And if I do it for all of them, I lose the other keyboard controls and I don't want that. I don't want to have to be stuck with the FunctionFlip 3rd party tool forever... How can I actually reset they key (or ideally, make it bring up dashboard without holding down fn)? You'd think that if it's so simple to change a setting one way it would be simple to change back. I'd even delete some prefs file if i had to.

I figured out that if you remove the ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.symbolichotkeys.plist file and restart, that restores the keyboard.
Second question: Is there any way to make F4 (without holding fn) bring up Dashboard on Lion that doesn't require FunctionFlip? If it matters, I have a Time Machine backup of the symbolichotkeys.plist file from when I had the older keyboard.
