  • How do you get the Apple Wireless Keyboard to accept function keys?

    I use the Apple Wireless Keyboard with my iPad2 and I use the VPN to connect to my work-related software which requires that I use some of the function keys as actual F1, F2, F3,...etc.  When I hit F2, the iPad2 responds with the Screen Brighter action.  How do I get the keyboard input to just be F2?  Thanks!

    Thanks. But I tried that and nothing happens.  I've looked though all the System Preferences sections and can't find anything on this.

  • HT1461 Are wireless keyboards and mice not supported with Boot Camp?

    I unfortunately need to use Windows to run a program my family needs.  Do I really need a USB plug-in keyboard and mouse versus the wireless ones that come with the iMac?

    Wireless keyboards and mice work very well with Windows.
    During installation though you will be required to provide keyboard input to select menu options. This is required prior to Windows or Windows wireless drivers being installed. Hence the reason that you need a connected keyboard during installation.

  • Magic Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard with Bootcamp and Win XP Pro 32-bit

    Does the Apple Magic Mouse and Apple Wireless Keyboard work with Boot Camp running Windows XP Pro (32-Bit)... I read something leading me to believe there maybe a problem and you need to use a wired USB mouse/Keyboard.
    Is this true?

    Apple Wireless Keyboard is able to work in Boot Camp via Window XP Pro, it's good enough.
    but the Magic Mouse, it's not able to work completely in Window XP Pro,
    it's just work like a normal bluetooth wireless mouse,
    all the Multi-Touch features like scroll, rotate, swipe, pinch and tap click are not gonna work,
    even you are configure via the snow leopard, so please be reconsider.

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard brightness keys not functioning since 10.8.4

    Hey all,
    since the new update, I've been experiencing several malfunctions, among which the two brightness keys on the Apple Wireless Keyboard. Every other key seems to be working as usual.
    I tried resetting the P-Ram, but nothing changed.
    Any hints?
    Thanks,
    Z
    Setup:
    MacBook Pro 13", Apple Thunderbolt Display, Apple Wireless Keyboard, Apple Trackpad

    Reset the SMC > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    If it doesn't work, reinstall OS X 10.8.4 through the Combo edition > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1659 This will reinstall everything which was updated in 10.8.4, so it should fix this issue

  • HT1171 How do I forward-delete in Windows using an Apple Wireless Keyboard?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1171 says that forward-delete maps to but that key doesn't exist on an Apple Wireless Keyboard (as far as I can tell). Anyone know how to achieve this, as well as home, page up, and page down functions?
    I've tried https://code.google.com/p/uawks/downloads/detail?name=Install UAWKS 2008.09.17.exe and uxsoft.cz/projects/awk, but these don't support forward-delete, home, page up, or page down.
    Thanks!

    Fn and delete works for deleting stuff to the right of the cursor, if that's what you mean?

  • My apple wireless keyboard got wet a year ago i sprayed the cleaning spray on it some of the keys are working but some of the keys aren"t working. it got sprayed a year ago What should i do??? Can it be recovered plz tell?

    I sprayed it a year ago i really like the keyboard and i really need it can it be recovered??? My apple wireless keyboard got wet a year ago i sprayed the cleaning spray on it some of the keys are working but some of the keys aren"t working. it got sprayed a year ago What should i do??? Can it be recovered plz tell?

    There is almost no chance it can be recovered, except at a cost far greater than a new keyboard.  Once wet, spraying with a cleaner will not do any good and most likely will make the situation worse.
    Best thing at this point is go to your Apple store, or the on-line store, and buy a new keyboard.  Water damage is not covered by the warranty or AppleCare.

  • Can't type Shift t on Apple wireless keyboard

    When I try to type capital T on my Apple wireless keyboard, I can't type shift+t to make it. (  when type shift+t shows nothing on my display monitor. ) I have to press caps lock and t to make capitel T. Can anyone help me to solve this problem? Thank you.

    start in Recovery & use Safari there - does the problem persist ?
    if so, likely a problem inside the keyboard, but try new batteries.
    If it works there - test in Safe mode

    Hello darciajohn,
    If you have an Apple TV (2nd generation or later) and are running Apple TV Software 5.2 or later, you definitely can use an Apple Wireless Keyboard with your Apple TV.  I found an article with the steps on setting this up:

  • I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

    I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help me please...

    You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
    http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
    Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
    http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
    Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
    http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
    In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

  • Can't pair apple wireless keyboard in Windows

    Hi
    I have just purchased the new June 2009 Macbook Pro. I've used bootcamp to install Windows XP and i'm trying to pair my apple wireless keyboard.
    Its the brand new apple wireless keyboard but when i search for the device in the Bluetooth control panel, its displayed but when it attempts to pair it says completed ok, but the keyboard still doesn't work.
    Any ideas?
    Cheers
    Andy

    ' Peter, I'm sorry to say this, but it sounds like you specifically either have a genuine hardware problem, or your Windows installation is sicker than most. You should never see the sort of symptoms you're talking about in a normal, healthy system!!!
    ' However, the bad / sad fact of the matter is that, even were you not in the position you're in, you couldn't use either keyboard or mouse when in Windows!
    ' I am able to (and have done - my Vista system is still configured successfully with 'em - I haven't removed them despite them being useless!) propperly pair both devices on Vista without much of a challenge - pretty standard fair actually... But that's all a smokescreen. Despite this - and despite being able to actually query each device over bluetooth for the services they provide and so on - they still cannot be actually used!!! No matter what, there is never any response from the OS to input or actions on either keyboard or mouse.
    ' <Shrugs> What can I tell ya. It does sound like Peter needs to move onto solving his bluetooth problem though anyways - in case this causes trouble for him (you) at some later date with devices that actually would be useful!
    ' Later!

  • Plz help: can i type Chinese using Apple wireless keyboard????

    Kind of struggling whether should i buy a wireless keyboard for my ipad air 2 as i may have lotta word job related to Chinese and French, and i know that French is okay with the English keyboard, at least much eaiser than typing Chinese characters.
    So the real concern is, can i type Chinese with the wireless keyboard without any problem?
    I've seen some solutions (all didn't mention if it has been proved yet or not so i automatically assume they are all just beautiful hypotheses) posted in the community claiming you just need go to settings then select the international language you wanna use, and you will be all set (in both virtual and external keyboard)----is that true??? Pleeeease help, thousands of thanks

    Hi Chloe Violette,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you would like to use the Apple Wireless Keyboard with English letters to type characters in different languages. This can be done by changing the import sources to type in other languages, including Chinese. For information on this process, please refer to the attached article. 
    OS X Yosemite: Use input sources to type in other languages

  • Why is my Apple Wireless Keyboard connected and paired, but I can't type anything?

    Hey,
    I’ve been using Apple Wireless Keyboard (A1314) for a year now. Yesterday it stopped working. I can see it’s connected and paired, but I can't type. I tried unparing and pairing it again and sometimes it helps - I have no idea why, but once in ten attempts it works. When it works, though, some strange happen - like my Mac increases it’s volume level like I hit F12 on the keyboard.
    When I go to Bluetooth menu battery level is hardly ever shown up. Also, when my keyboard is connected it takes a few seconds to open forementioned bluetooth menu.
    So, it there change I will be able to repair it? It’s not like it costs $5. :c
