French USB keyboard for writing email??

I was wondering how i could get a usb french (or french-canadian) keyboard for my macbook. I often write emails to people in france, but i hate using the keyboard.
I tried to go to the canadian us store to buy the keyboard, but then when i tried to order it, it said it could only be shipped anywhere within canada.
Is there any way i can get a french keyboard in the us??

Canadian-French, Canadian-English. Yeah
If u live in canada i think apple gives u a choice.
France-French and Canadian-French have keys like AZ and QW in different places. You might want to make sure you get the one you are used to.
I just need all the accent keys.
Of course you can make all the accents on the standard US layout as well, via Option/alt key shortcuts (e.g. é is made by Option/Alt + e, then e). Or you can install a US International layout.

Re: full size USB keyboard for Tecra A8

Looking for a full size USB keyboard for a Tecra A8 with keyboard layout more like desktop; del key next to \ and larger cap locks key farther away from A key. Other layout issues not a problem.

Hello
You can use every keyboard. Go to a local computer dealer and have a look on the different keyboards.
There are keyboards with a lot of multimedia keys, normal keyboards, small, ergonomic keyboards and so far.
By the way I use Logitech keyboards for years and never had problems with it.

Need a desktop email client specifically for WRITING email.

I prefer to read my email through my web browser at gmail.com and don't want to deal with managing duplicate mail with my desktop client. However, when writing email in a web browser, adding files and images is a real pain. I need drag-drop functionality to speed up my work flow. Can I configure Thunderbird (preferably) or Apple Mail to write email using my gmail account, but not clutter the inbox with any mail at all?

Hi
Looking at your wishes I'm wondering if you have considered an IMAP account?
With IMAP the emails on your computer are synchronised with those that are on the server. Each email has metadata recording things like "read" or "unread" status and this metadata is kept sync'd between the computer and server.
Also, of course the location of the email in your mailbox/folder system is kept sync'd as well.
So, all in all, that which is on the server is the same as that which is on your computer.
I have used IMAP for some time and I would not return to using a POP account personally.
I think it would be good for you to try out an IMAP account for it is easier to see how it works that it is to describe. In practice it is very simple and intuitive.
.Mac includes a very slick IMAP account indeed, another you might be interested in is FastMail. .Mac does a free trial period so it might be easiest for you to look at that. If the other things with .Mac don't interest you then I can recommend FastMail which does cost a bit of money annually but it is very well worth it.

Can the new iPhone allow landscape/ horizontal keyboarding for text/ email?

One of the things that made me stay with Blackberry was that it was clearly better at typing text and emails. I chose not to buy the original iPhone based on the difficulty of typing text and email in only a portrait/ vertical setting.
Viewing horizontal/ landscape web pages is available - what I would like to know is if horizontal typing for text and email will be a feature?

We will more than likely see when it comes out and we get to play with it. "Small" features like this usually don't get much airtime during a keynote, but it would be nice to see, I hope it's there.
Maybe a mag will do a report on it before we get it.
Thanks for your response. Its too bad everything is so hush hush. It would be nice to see a spread on any new features or enhancements. Hopefully before the actual hands on experience.

please help me...

The Axiom is actually my favorite M-Audio controller, so I second that vote! While I'm a keyboardist and appreciate well-implemented fully-weighted keys (and real lives pianos!), I much prefer M-Audio's semi-weighted keys in their Axiom line to their fully-weighted controllers which are a little gluey and difficult to play.
So I second the vote for the Axiom.
However, I prefer the larger Axiom models (the 61, actually), but would recommend the middle sized Axiom 49 even if you are a one hand player. I've found that given the choice, one hand players typically prefer the larger keyboard even if only using one hand on it at a time. It just feels better to have room to plop your other hand on the keyboard, even if you don't.
That having been said, the 25 note keyboard might be perfect for the way some people work, and is obviously far more mobile and easier to accommodate on a single desk.

IBM USB Keyboard with Ultranav - part works part doesn't

i have an IBM usb keyboard 02R0400 with built in touchpad and ultranav.
i am running a brand new 2month old Lenovo Thinkpad T61 with Windows Vista x64 and the last time I tried to conquer this problem I messed up my mouse drivers so bad I had to do a fresh reinstall of the OS. The machine is running so much better as a result of rebuilding from scratch so no worries but suffice it to say I don't want to go through that again.
CONTEXT:
- using thinkpad on a port replicator. have the US keyboard on the desk with my USB external mouse and second screen. nothing too tricky about the setup. windows vista x64. no other msft or logitech mouse software is installed - just msft vista doing it's auto install thing.
SYMPTOM:
- when i plug in USB keyboard it is recognized and the keys and the touchpad work but the ultrnav trackpoint does not which is really irritating as I like to use it and don't like the touchpad at all.
- given i am not currently able to find a vista driver on the Lenovo site I am a little confused. I don't really want to install driver software for XP/2000 given my unpleasant mouse driver corruption experience earlier and would like to run this install as lean as possible.
- the OS is clearly trying to install the ultranav but failing as it shows just an "unknown device" under mice and pointing devices in the device manager.
- also, when i go to the mouse control panel in the OS it's showing two ultranav tabs, one for the laptop and one for the keyboard but the keyboard one is not functioning and is greyed out as in it's inactive and I can't configure it
KEY QUESTIONS:
- How do i untangle this driver mess? And get the right driver installed so that I can get the trackpoint working on the USB keyboard without messing up my laptop ultranav trackpoint? Key here is that I don't want to mess up the drivers so that when I detach my laptop from the port replicator the keyboard and mouse pointer on the laptop don't work which is what happened last time? Should I just run the XP/2000 installation software for the keyboard or will that possibly screw up my vista OS - don't want that?!
BEST GUESS:
- What's so odd about this is that I have used external USB IBM/Lenovo keyboard like this for years and this is the first time I have ever seen an OS get confused and create two ultranav tabs on the mouse control panel so I am thinking this is a vista x64 issue?
Thanks for any thoughts on how to further diagnose and pinpoint the problem here or for suggestions on the proper workaround as this sure is annoying and seems like it should not be happening -- it's just a simple USB keyboard for god's sake! ;-)

Saw this post today.
Same problem here. What worked for me is the latest ultranav driver.
I installed the latest ultranav driver from lenovo.com after trying a lot of stuff just as a last resort.
Voila! everything works now.
Hope this helps if you have not already found the solution

What keyboard for a 14-inch G4?

I have a 14-inch iBook G4, 1.33 GHz. It is missing the "L" keycap and the "nub" underneath it. Make typing most anything a challenge! I thought I would try getting a USB keyboard for it, and looked on Ebay. How can I tell which keyboards (new or used) will work with my iBook? Portability is not an issue, since the screen is cracked, and I have it attached to a monitor on my desk.

Hey leafbyniggle,
How can I tell which keyboards (new or used) will work with my iBook?
Any of the older USB Mac keyboards will work with your iBook. Like any for the iMac CRTs, the white Pro keyboard. The new thin Aluminum one would be the only one I can think of off the top of my head that has had issues about working. Don't remember the exact post.

Hebrew / English Keyboard for 700 MHz eMac

Does anyone know of a Hebrew English USB Keyboard for a 700 MHz eMac either made for a PC or Mac? If it's for a PC how do I get an ⌘ key besides using a decal?

Have you tried a Google search on Hebrew USB keyboard? You should find a number of sites, including this:

The kind of Mac you have is not relevant.

Help with the Korg nano key usb keyboard!

I recently bought the Kord Nano Key usb keyboard for the purpose of triggering drum sounds and sounds from the library. Will this keyboard do this?
I have very limited time with which to read manuals and experiment. Could anyone just tell me how to get going with this keyboard. I have installed the driver and can see that some sort of signal is getting into logic.
If it is possible, can you get me up and running quickly?
Thanks

I'm assuming the Akai came with a manual, I know Logic did, you're going to have to do a little of the work yourself, your question is so vauge that no one knows what you're tried, or if you've even tried anything at all! This is professional software... you HAVE to read manuals... have you used Garageband? Have you plugged the Akai in, have you looked in Logic's online help systen to see how to load a software instrument?
Or job is not to hold your hand, this is a user forum, there are people here that will help but you need to to some work on your own.

Getting the knobs on my USB keyboard to work

I have an M-audio O2 USB keyboard

Ehm, have you read the manual? Controller assignments are described on page 30

Add Vol controls to non-Apple USB Keyboard?

Hi all. I just bought the Kensington Spillproof USB keyboard (for obvious reasons). The only problem with it is that it lacks the volume up, down, and mute buttons that the Apple keyboards have. Is there any way I can make a shortcut (possibly using the F keys) to control sound levels from my keyboard like I used to be able to do on my Apple board? Thanks!

Hi Sound Speed-
Greetings and welcome to the Apple boards
Is this a USB keyboard or an adapted PC model?
If it isn't USB per se it most likely won't play nice with any Mac. Does it worked on a PC with the USB adapter?

Best keyboard for learning on -- looking to buy

I am looking to buy a USB keyboard for my kids (9 & 12) to learn on Garage Band. We are not piano players, but would like to start with the lessons and maybe graduate up to playing sheet music for fun.
Keeping it simple, but wanting quality and some room to grow on....
Any opinions on what to get or avoid?

For kids, I would always pick a standalone keyboard that can produce sounds by itself - you just turn it on and makes sounds, as opposed to a midi controller which always needs a computer attached which might not always be available. There's a ton of instruments on the market - just make sure it has either a Mac compatible USB output or a Midi out (in which case you need an extra Midi interface to connect to the computer).
If you want to head towards serious piano playing, a keyboard with weighted keys would make sense, or an electric piano with midi output.

Do the new slim USB keyboards work with OSX 10.4.7?

Hi everyone,
I really want to get one of those new slim apple USB keyboards for my iMac, but it says on its product description page that the system requirements are OSX 10.4.10. I have 10.4.7 running on my iMac, don't want to update it coz my everything is working perfectly and my theory is if it ain't broke, why fix it? So was wondering if I did get the keyboard anyway, would it work with 10.4.7?
I do hear horror stories of people updating their software and having nightmarish problems thereafter, thats why am very cautious about updating my software, as currently I am in a real sweet spot of stability, and don't want to upset that.
Thanks for your responses in advance!

Well I got the slim keyboard (love it), and did the updates till 10.4.10 as required. It all went ok, but got blue screen of death after the quicktime update, and had to do a hard reset (my first ever on my iMac), and is all ok now - so far...
But! The best bit was - the Gfx card performance is up 20% :))
(I do graphics work, ran a couple of tests after the updates. Neat!)
The updates probably had a Gfx card driver update...
I guess its win win all round, just hope i don't have any stability issues now - fingers crossed!

Convert internal powerbook keyboard into external usb keyboard??

I want to convert a used powerbook G4 keyboard into an external usb keyboard for my MBP. What seems to be needed is a connector with a slot on one side for the ribbon on the powerbook keyboard and on the other side a usb slot. I like the idea of having an external keyboard for my MBP with the same look and feel as the MBP's keyboard. Any ideas?
Mac OS X (10.4.8)
Mac OS X (10.4.8)

I checked system profiler and the internal keyboard is both bluetooth and usb. So all that would be needed is a connector from keyboard ribbon to usb port. Probably none exist in the market as this is an unusual thing. But perhaps I can jerryrig something. It's just the look and feel of the MBP keyboard that I'd like to emulate on an external keyboard. You know, as if the external keyboard was designed exclusively for a MacBook Pro.
