Getting t400s with spanish layout keyboard in california

Hello,
I am a Spaniard currently working in the north of San Francisco and want to know if I can get the new T400s with the Spanish layout in the keyboard (preferred "Spanish from Spain", though I could manage with "Latin America" layout).
Since I'm here, it doesn't make sense to buy my laptop in Spain, so I wonder what can I do. 
Any suggestion will be welcomed. 
Thanks!

Hello again,
When I try to buy any of the listed FRU numbers for the particular part I'm looking for ("Spanish" keyboard for the T400s: FRUs 45N2081, 45N2168 and 45N2221, as listed in here), nobody seems to find the part in the phone 18003887080 (then extension 2, then 1, then finally 1). 
Those FRU don't even come up in the system of the agents who attended me, so I can't buy the part I'm interested in. Finally, one person in support told me the lack of those FRU numbers for one specific part of the T400s could be because the computer is fairly new.
I don't know what to do: to wait for the part I'm looking for to appear?
I don't even have the confirmation that part will be available in the US anytime soon.
What would you recommend?

  • Spanish layout keyboard

    Hello everybody,
    sure that will be a simple question, but I was unable to find the spanish special characters in my keyboard.
    In the set up, I can see that the used keyboard it's the spanish one, but don't show the spanish layout.
    Anyone that can help me?

    I totally agree with the starter of this thread. I was baffled to realize that the manual does not say NOTHING about this vital information. Mac is very user friendly but the documentation is equally important to be user friendly, i.e informative so you do not have to look for the info in message boards.
    Have you configured any international keyboards? I guess that has to be done first in "Settings/General/Keyboard/International Keyboards. In the list, toggle the ones you need and then in "Keyboard mode" i.e when entering data into your Ipod, you press the globe to change language of your keyboard. This info can be found in the manual. I hope this is what you were asking for.
    Cheers

    Hi I have only 2 days in USA to buy Mac Book Pro 13" with Retina display. The issue here is that I'd like to get the westerns spanish keyboard and at the apple store the guy said it will take 6 days. I was wondering if I do the purchase within the express checkout, Will I be able to get the laptop before leaving NY on the 7th of May 2014?
    I do not have any experience with the express checkout, actually I do know how it works, any advice please?
    Thanks!!!!

    Call the store on the telephne and ask. However, I doubt it since a store would not normally have an item with non-USA features
    Also, this is the Mac Pro desktop forum. I requested your post be moved to the MacBook Pro laptop forum

  • Were to get Qosmio X70-A-11Q with a Portuguese keyboard layout

    Hello,
    I live in Austria but I am Portuguese.
    I am wondering if and where I can get the Qosmio X70-A-11Q with a Portuguese keyboard layout.
    I wouldnt mind buying it directly from the factory or wait a little more.
    Thank you in advance!

    >And would toshiba.pt send the laptop all the way to Austria by post?
    Toshiba.pt does not sell the notebook. but you have to find an dealer who would sell this device.
    >How about guarantee? Do I get support from Toshiba Austria?
    I think all warranty details can be found on Toshiba page (Toshiba.pt)
    But from my knowledge the notebook is covered by one year standard warranty. Of course you can purchase some additional services you should check this on Toshiba page.
    But the standard warranty covers only the notebook for one year and in case something would go wrong you have to repair it in country where you made the purchase.

  • Spanish layout on English keyboard

    Hi,
    I have a new MacBook white and it ships with US keyboard layout; my native language is Spanish and I want to use the Spanish ISO keyboard layout anyway. I set up the layout properly and everything works fine: when I press the ";2 key I get the "ñ" (and that's how it should be).
    The problem is that I cannot get the "\" (backslash) character.
    In a desktop keyboard, the backslash is gotten pressing OPTION-"the key at the left-top", but when I press that in my MacBook, I get a "less or equal" sign.
    Do you know how can I get the backslash with some keyboard combination?
    Regards,
    ernesto

    Ernesto, I think you'll find that Command-option-6 will give you the \ that you want. For future reference, it's fairly easy to find what you need by using the Keyboard Viewer. How do you see that? The simplest way is to go to System Preferences > International > Input Menu tab. There, put a check mark into "Keyboard Viewer" and also into "Show input menu in menu bar" at the bottom of the pane. Now also put a check mark into "Spanish" in the scrollable list in the center.
    At this point you should see a Spanish flag in your menu bar, no matter what application you're using. When you can't find a character you need to type, simply go to the flag, click and select Keyboard Viewer. By playing around with the shift, option, command and control keys (alone and in combination) you should be able to find what you need.
    Good luck!

  • Some applications don't put accents with non-english keyboard layouts

    I'm using a Portuguese keyboard with three different macs running Mac OS Tiger 10.4.8/9. Some applications (like Motion 2 and Swift Publishing 2) don't allow writing some accented characters, like (è) or (ê), that are accessed by Shift+normal key, but they do display correctly other accented letters, for instance (é), witch are accessed directly without the Shift key. This happens only in some applications and with a european keyboard layout (I tried it also with the spanish and french keyboards layouts), but not with other applications (it works all right with Word or iPhoto) and the english keyboards.
    Any sugestion as how to solve this? If I create the text in some other application and paste it in Motion it works! But it's a drag.

    Hey KDCruz,
    Thanks for the question. Let's see if we can isolate the issue further, the following article has some great troubleshooting steps:
    One or more keys on the keyboard do not respond

  • X121e Keyboard (Where to buy one with US-Layout)

    Hi,
    I have a X121e with a german keyboard, but i would like to buy a US-Layout keyboard. I found a lot of x100e and x120e keyboards on ebay, but i read on an other forum that they are not compatible to the x121e. Is this right?
    And if it is, do you have any idea from where i could get one for the x121e? I didnt find any on ebay or hardware-shops yet. 
    Thanks a lot,

  • Problem with external USB keyboard layout that differes to the macbook one

    I have a MacBook with a US keyboard layout and attached to an older (pre aluminium) japanese keyboard. As long as I stick in the normal mode (eg not japanese input) all keys work as they should. But if I switch to japanese input, the keyboard also switches to japanese input.
    I suspect it is because in the Kotoeri Preferences under "Keyboard layout for Romaji" is US selected. But from this dropdown I cannot choose any japanese layout.
    How can I fix this? This is really annoying, all the time when I input some japanese text and want to use any of the other characters (eg & or %, etc) I need to use the keyboard on the Laptop because else I do not get the correct characters.

    I don't think that matters -- the point of this preference is to allow correct Hiragana input by people using non-US latin keyboards.
    Yeah, neither do I ... but somehow os x doesn't see the correct keyboard layout once I switch to japanese input.

    Is it not possible using the JIS Japanese keyboard to make & and %? I see them for example on this picture of one.
    If I view the keyboard viewer I see the correct japanese layout, but if I want to type the keys as shown there I get the input like on the US layout on the keyboard in the laptop.
    eg shift+6 = &, but on us you get ^. so when I am in normal input I get the &, but if I switch to japanese input I get the ^. And this is really annoying, especially some keys "disappear". the ¥ (yen/backslash key) just doesn't work at all in japanese input.

  • Where can I get a MacBook Pro retina 13 with Arabic/English keyboard.?

    Where can I get a MacBook Pro retina 13 with Arabic/English keyboard.?

    you have to go to Apple store online then you'll have to go to customize your MacBook Pro, there you choose Arabic keyboard, and it'll automatically contains both languages English and Arabic....... because the Latin letters must have for any computer to be used on email's website and etc. etc.

  • Can I get help with podcasts?  When I try to open the podcasts, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish.  everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.

    Can I get help with podcasts?  When I try to open the podcasts tab, itunes crashes, says "itunes has detected a problem and must close", or the spanish equivalent since my xp is in spanish.  everything else works fine, it even downloads podcasts and syncs.

    The only other thing I can suggest is to use the Repair option for iTunes.
    Download the iTunes programme (do not uninstall your current iTunes) and then "install" the new copy. At some stage you should see an option to "install" or "Repair". Take the Repair option.
    Once you've done that, if you still have a problem, I don't know what else to suggest, except to search through the discussions to see if anyone else has had the problem and managed to fix it.
