Changing the macbook keyboard

Hi everybody hope someone'll be able to help me.
I'm thinking of buying my first macbook this summer in the US. But there is one big hurdle - The keyboard. I want it in danish with the special danish keys Æ,Ø & Å.
Whats the price for the keyboard?
Can i change the physical keyboard myself? if not what would it cost to have the apple store do it for me?
Have anybody experience with this i'd love if you could help me!
Joey

If getting a Danish keyboard is beyond what you want to pay, I recommend the overlays, stickers or just writing on the keys. I have been using Macs for Japanese since 1985. Some software I bought once came with some keyboard stickers and they worked really well. I know it's not the same as Danish, and now with modern input systems I don't bother, but I just thought I would add this info.

Cost to change the whole keyboard Macbook Pro 13''??

Hey
i wish to know the estimate $$ for me to change the whole keyboard of my Macbook Pro 13'' Mid 2009

I did two, a 2010 15" and an early 2011 13". The keyboard replacement on these machines is easiest done via replacement of the "top case".
These cost me $79 and $69 off eBay.

Why is the MacBook keyboard black instead of grey?

A curious question about industrial design.
When Apple released the unibody MacBook, why has the keyboard been changed to black instead of the original silver color from the older MacBook Pro models?
I personally prefer grey keys a lot more than black keys as they blend in well with the aluminum body. Grey, like black, doesn't get dirty over long periods of use.
Some argue that the contrast lets a user recognize the black keyboard better. My counter argument is that the silver keyboard on the old MacBook Pros did not trouble users. Since the hands are already rested in position during typing, users don't need to look at a physical keyboard as often as a touchscreen keyboard.
Others argue that it's to distinguish the keyboard from the body. If that's the case, then why is the trackpad silver instead of black?

A silver keycap with a white letter does not provide sufficent contrast as legislated. A silver keycap and a sufifciently contrasting letter color would be very difficult to illuminate. The current ID solution provides sufficient contrast, and the ability to illuminate the letter.
"Do you have any sources that describe the standard?"
I believe the inital legislation was passed by the EU, and it was part of ergo standards, including usability by the physically limited.

Can I change the hard disk on my MacBook Pro to a larger one, and if so what are the sizes I can get? I bought my MacBook Pro in Feb 2006.
Also would it be possible to copy my current apps,data etc to the new drive? I.e. have a mirror image of my current laptop onto the new drive?
Whatever drive you choose to replace with, you need a magnetic 00 micro philips screwdriver to open the case and a container for each of the screws to place in their own sections in order so you return the right screws to each hole. (also a green or dark mat to catch and see any fallen tiny screws)

Before you do surgery, you use the free Carbon Copy Cloner to clone your entire boot drive (doesn't do Bootcamp) to a blank, HFS+ journaled formatted drive (equal or larger than the boot drive)
http://www.bombich.com/
Hold option and boot from the clone, check it out and Disk Utility > repair permissions on both drives. Disconnect.
Do your drive surgery.
Hold option and boot from the clone, use Disk Utility to Erase with Zero the new drive, format HFS+ and then use CCC to reverse clone. Repair permissions on both again.
Reboot and your Mac should be just like it was, only with a larger hard drive.
Piece of cake.

Way to change the universal keyboard commands?

I HATE, HATE, and absolutely HATE Apple's new keyboard command for closing a document without saving it, which goes against all of Apple's other keyboard commands since the beginning of the Mac.
Is there a way to change it? I could create a macro in a third-party macro utility, but it seems like I would have to do this in every Apple app I own.
Is there any way to change the universal system preferences so that command-D closes a document without changes like it used to?

No. It's borked and Apple won't fix it. I solved the issue by running TextEdit 1.6 from Snow Leopard wherein CMD+D works.

Changing the safari keyboard shortcuts possible?

So I was wondering if anyone knew a way to change the shortcuts on the keyboard for Safari, specifically I would like to change the "Command-R" function which reloads the page to "F5". I have gone throught the whole keyboard shortcuts tab in system prefs (System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts) and added the safari menu command and my shortcut I wanted to add yada yada yada and nothing ever works no matter how many times I try or what I change. I am not sure whether or not the fact that I am the Apple Wireless keyboard has anything to do with this but I doubt it does. Any ideas?

Hi
I had to quit safari & reopen before it worked, but yes, it does work with F5.
Did you choose Safari from the applications list in sys prefs-keyboard & mouse-keyboard shortcuts?
then type Reload Page ( including the capital letters ) ? in the Menu Title box?
then leave keyboard prefs?
Let us know how you get on

Can I change the default keyboard shortcuts?

Hi,
I was wondering if it was possible to change some of the default keyboard shortcuts. Some of the actions I use quite frequently have 4-button shortcuts that require a lot more dexterity than I have and I was hoping I can change them to something simple, like 2-keys or 3 at the most. Is this doable?
Thanks

Many can be changed. System Preferences, Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts.

How do I change the optional keyboards displayed on my iPad?

I accidentally added a Chinese software keyboard in setup. How do I delete it? (ipod2)

I assume you mean iPad 2 not "ipod2" ... go to Settings - General - International Keyboards - Add New Keyboard - enter the one you want - then choose Edit - delete the Chinese keyboard.

Changing the landscape keyboard

I'm quite unhappy with all those extra buttons on the landscape keyboard on my iPhone 6 plus. I'd rather have bigger keys. Any way to disable all those extra keys? Or perhaps there's a keyboard out there that doesn't have the extra ones?

You can switch to zoomed mode Settings > Display & Brightness > View > Zoomed. In that mode, when in landscape, the keyboard his nice and big.. however everything else is big too.
I'd love to have the big keyboard but leave the rest the same.
I'm on iPhone 6, so not sure if this will work on 6 plus too. Let us know!

Did Apple change the feel of the Macbook keyboard?

I recently had the logic board of my Macbook (mid 2006) repaired and for some reason Apple replaced my keyboard. But instead of the crisp tactile responsive keys I know and love, I now have a mushy soft keyboard? What gives?

I just bought a new país of Apple earpods from a certified reseller and I am socked by the very cheap feel of the cable compard to the ones I bought just one year ago. Your description about the plastic behavior totally matches my experience with these new earpods. NOT THRILLED AT ALL. They seem like they will last no more than a month.
