How can I use a USB keyboard with my Macbook Pro?

My MBP will not recognize my brand new USB keyboard.
I have tried the keyboard on two other Macbook Air's and it works perfectly.
My MBP:
OS X Yosemite
10.10.1
Macbook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Late 2013)
2.4 GHz Core i5
8GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Mac HD
Graphics Intel Iris 1536 MB
Thoughts on how I can resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Greg

Brenden,
Thanks for the reply.
I've gone your suggestions in detail and the keyboard is still not working.
From what I can tell this is a known issue with Yosemite.

Someone at Apple must be able to figure this one out.

  • Can I use an USB disc with my macbook pro bought in 2005.  What capacity will it take 2.00 or 3.00?

    can I use an USB disc with my macbook pro bought in 2005.  What capacity will it take 2.00 or 3.00?

    The first MacBook Pro's were not released until the beginning of 2006, and they had USB 2 ports.
    Anything available new in 2005 would have been a PowerBook G4 and they also had USB 2 ports.
    A USB 3 disk will just transfer data slower then it could do, if you plug it into a USB 2 port though, so you can buy either.

  • How can I use an A1082 monitor with my MacBook Pro?

    I received an apple A1082 monitor this past weekend from a friend and we couldn't, and still can't, figure out how it can be used with my MacBook Pro. I know that I need an adapter, but where does it get power from? Thanks in-advance. Richie.

  • My MACbook is connected to my iMAC using thunderbolt. How can I use my wireless keyboard with my MACBook with the lid OPEN?

    It might work with the lid closed but I want to use the both screens. I try to detect the keyboard and the track pac on my Macbook pro but nothing is detected except my iMAC.

    The easiest way is to copy the iTunes folder from your old PC to your MB (put it in the Music folder as a subfolder), along with the other valuable data on the old PC. Or restore it from a backup of your old PC. Then authorize iTunes on the MB to the same account you had on the PC. When you sync it will warn you that your content will be deleted, but it will be replaced with the same content from the MB. Before syncing you should also make sure there is at least one entry in iCal and Address book on the MB (assuming you sync to Outlook or equivalent on the PC) to assure that your contacts and calendar entries will move over correctly.
    Al alternative that is less effective is to connect the iPhone to the MB without syncing, and choose "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes File menu. This willl copy purchases music, videos and apps, but not ripped tracks from the iPhone to the MB.

  • How do i use an external display with my macbook pro?

    How do I use an external display with a macbook pro?

    Just buy the proper adapter cord, such as MiniDisplay port to HDMI for example.  Plug it in and it will be automatically recognized.  Use System Preferences > Displays to set options.
    The display can Mirror your primary desktop or Extend the Desktop.

  • How can I download videos from youtube with may MacBook Pro? I cannot download with real player. So how can I do it?

    How can I download videos from youtube with may MacBook Pro? I cannot download with real player. So how can I do it?

    There are two apps that I know of - and I would also swear that they come from the same developer, although they've different names. Both have free trials and both cost $40 (but both do 'other' video conversion as well).
    One is WonderShare - I bought this one and it works very well for downloading YouTube videos as well as converting just about any file format you can think of.
    The other is iSkysoft Video Converter (just noticed that it's now $36).
    I tried them both and finally decided on WonderShare. Give them both a trial run and decide if you like either one enough to buy it. I don't know of any 'free' software that will allow you to download and convert YouTube videos, but perhaps someone else will come along and know of something...
    Good luck,

  • How can I use a USB camera with cRIO 9022. Please see my strange problem.

    Hi,
            I would like to use a USB camera with NI cRIO 9022. I used the same USB camera with NI USB 6216 DAQ device and developed a VI(within a PROJECT and outside it). So, It is working fine with NI USB 6216 device when I use the Vision Assistant Express VI and gets detected in its Initialization Window.  Please see JPEG File 3 where I get NO ERROR.
            I am facing a problem when I want to use it with NI cRIO 9022. What exactly I am doing in this case is:
    1) Create a NEW PROJECT
    2) Add Targets and Devices(NI cRIO 9022)
    3) Use the Scan Interface mode
    4) Create a NEW VI under the cRIO 9022 device 
    5) Use a Timed Loop(Synchronized with Scan Engine) for continuous Data Acquisition and Sending from the Analog I/O modules.
    6) Use the Vision Assistant available through the NI Vision Acquisition 2010 Module(I get STUCK HERE! The Express VI opens the Initialization Window, but I don't see the USB camera like in JPEG File 3)
    I am facing difficulties with this HOST COMPUTER, cRIO implementation differences. On my host computer I have the software packages as shown in JPEG File 1, and on my cRIO 9022 as shown in JPEG File 2.
    Can someone guide me how to overcome this and get the USB camera detected when I am using NI cRIO 9022?
    NOTE: If this is a problem with software mismatches on HOST and NI cRIO 9022 device, please see JPEG Files 1 and 2 for available software and Host and cRIO 9022.
    Thanks.
    Amar.

    Sorry, don't know what happened there you can boot to Recovery but you can't access DW, but you can make  boot disk on a USB drive (use DiskmakerX) and that will allow you to access DW (which does nothing useful on a new machine) Diskmaker X works with 10.7 to 10.9
    Thanks, I'll give that a try. The only thing I have to use as a thumb drive is an old iPod that's only a half a gig in size. I hope that's big enough!

  • Can i use my netgear stora with a macbook pro?

    thinking of purchasing a mac book pro 15",would i be able to use my netgear stora with it?
    if i can ,is it easy to set up.
    big jump for me moving from microsoft to apple ,trying to find out as much as i can ,

    Yes, it has a NEXXTECH PS/2 adapter to UPS which I connect to my old laptop (emachines). Is it compatible with Apple?
    If that Nexxtech adapter converts to USB, it probably will work fine for alpa and numerics.
    What sometimes happens is a Mac does not recognize a keyboard, so it will ask you to type some specific characters, like z and m and . If you get lucky, it will recognize the layout and assign the keys correctly and all will work. Command and Option may take some playing around to get them straight. Some shortcut combinations may never work properly.

  • How can I use my Magic mouse in a Macbook pro?

    I have an iMac and I'm using the magic mouse. I just got a Macbook Pro and would like to use the mouse with this computer too.
    How can I make it work in both computers?
    I won't use them at the same time of course. I use one during the day, and the other at night so I'm hoping to make the mouse work in both.
    Thanks in advance!!

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
    You have been very helpful! I will try that! Thanks!!
    PS: One last question, will it work if I put it in "sleep" mode or it has to be shut down?
    Thanks again!

  • Can I use an Easycap DC60 with my macbook pro?

    Hi, I have purchased an Easycap DC60 and downloaded Easycap viewer but it doesn't seem to recognise the device. Have I bought something which is not compatible or is there something out there that I can use? I wanted this to copy old VHSC tapes from a camcorder and edit on my macbook. Any help on this would be gratefully received.

  • How can i drive 2 external displays with my macbook pro?

    I just purchased an Macbook Pro and wanted to know if there is a solution to drive 2 external Apple
    Cinema Displays simultaeously.  (Set up so displays operate as 1)?

    I believe the TripleHead2GO requires all three external displays to be identical. Verify this with a call to Matrox. There is also a maximum resolution limit for the three displays together, which you'll want to be sure is acceptable to you and will look OK on your monitors. Ideally, the maximum resolution the TH2Go supports for each display will be the maximum resolution each display is capable of when used alone, because the displays will be sharpest at their maximum resolutions. If used at any lower resolution setting, they will be noticeably blurry.
    I'm not aware of any other three-display options for the Mac that enable the monitors to operate with normal responsiveness (USB video adapters are slow). Yes, the TH2Go is expensive, and that's probably because it's the only game in town.
