IMac Wireless Keyboard - protective skins? (Pre - Aluminium Flat keyboard)

I have a pre-"the new" aluminium wireless key board and have been using a silicone skin to keep it clean, quieter to use and more ergonomic to feel for a few years now but it seems the only retailer I can find in the UK has now stopped selling them. No surprise there.
Being a designer I have always used the 'raised' key keyboards for faster work and for better feel when touch- typing and for shortcuts, so I have the if it aint broke reasoning! And it's still pristine white...
Does anyone know of anywhere in the UK or a helpful exporter in another country that sells these mystical skins?
I have a found a couple of HG manufacturers but they are wholesale bulk. eBay is not an option.

Try the Bluetooth Keyboard/Mouse forums.

  • My iMac keeps typing a minus sign. I switched my wireless keyboard for a plug in Windows keyboard, and it keeps typing this one character. I took the batteries out of the Mac keyboard, so that is not the problem. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.8.

I took the batteries out of the Mac keyboard, so that is not the problem. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.8. In parallels, I don't have any problem, just on the Mac platform.

    Thanks for your observation. I realize they are different versions, but when I use the "Software Update" menu, this is as far as it would update. Is there some way to update the iMac beyond what "Software Update" does? I've tried it several times.
    Please Note.
    Upgrading OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) to 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion) is not an update. It is a paid upgrade. Just as with 10.7 (Lion) you must purchase it from the App Store with yor Apple ID and install it after backing up your current computer state for safety.

  • How to change the battery in the imac wireless keyboard

    how to change the battery in the imac wireless keyboard?

    FYI, there is no "iMac" wireless keyboard. 
    If you have an Apple Bluetooth KB, simply remove the plug (screws out) on the left top side of the KB.

  • Aluminium wired keyboard problem with iMac

    Just bought an Aluminium wired keyboard for my 2.66ghz iMac 20". When I press shift 3 for the £ sign, I get a #
    If I press alt and 3, I get the £. How can I get this working as it shows on the keyboard?
    Allan

    Ah, got it working properly, changed the input language from US to British. If only that would work with Google!
    But, any idea where on the keyboard I got a smiley face from when i was checking which keys produced which symbols with the alt then shift keys.

  • IMac wireless mouse/keyboard unavailable after awakening from sleep - OS X 10.10.3

    I am using an iMac21 inch late 2012. Has been working perfectly until I upgraded to OS X 10.10.3. Now when the iMac wakes from sleep neither the mouse or keyboard are connected. The only recourse is to force a hard restart with the power button.
    i have tried the following to no avail:
    SMC reset
    PRAM/NVRAM reset
    reboot (reconnects until computer sleeps & reawakens)
    bluetooth off/on
    repaired Bluetooth devices
    Removed & reconfigured devices
    I have set sleep (in Energy Preferences) to wait indefinitely & that has 'resolved' my issue. Albeit with an increase in energy use. Of course this isn't a fix.
    I Would be grateful if anybody had some tips on how to resolve this situation.
    thanks
    paul

  • [Wireless Keyboard] Where can I buy this keyboard layout?

    Hi,
    I bought a late 2009 iMac 27" (on May 2010) that came with the following wireless keyboard.
    Recently, one of my keyboard keys broke and after trying to repair it, the worker said it was better to get a new keyboard. Problem is, I can't seem to find the original wireless keyboard layout in the store. I'm portuguese and this is the layout you can get in the store.
    Is ther a way to buy the original keyboard that came with the iMac?
    Thanks.

    Hi BGreg,
    It's in the screenshots. It might be easier if you click on the pictures.
    First screenshot shows the keyboard that came with the iMac, the one I'm currently using (with the faulty key).
    The second screenshot is the portuguese wireless keyboard that Apples sells at the oficial store. If you look closely they are different.
    While all the letters match in both keyboards, the Enter key is completely different and all the special characters keys (´,§,?,^ and so on..) are in different places.

  • Can I print from my ipad2 to my iMac wirelessly?

    I'm new to ipad2 and want to know if the Bluetooth or wifi can be used to send Pages letters to my iMac wirelessly.   I'm able to Share/ print through
    iTunes but that entails hooking up wires.  Any help for me minus purchasing the AIRPort?

    You can't print via bluetooth (that is aimed at devices such as headphones and keyboards on iOS devices). If you don't have an Airprint supported printer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356) then you might be able to print via wifi via your PC/Mac using apps such as Print Central and Print n Share.
    I don't have the Pages app or print from my iPad, so I can't say which print app is best (or if they work with Pages)

  • IMac suddenly fails to recognize my Apple bluetooth keyboard

    My old wired keyboard works fine. No damage is visible.  New batteries don't help.  It connects to my iPad just fine, but not the iMac running OSX10.8.5 Mountain Lion. in System Preferences>keyboard> Bluetooth keyboard search does not find a keyboard. Wireless mouse works fine.

    First make sure the batteries aren't dead and that the keyboard hasn't already been paired with another device. If it hasn't, the keyboard should pair automatically when you reboot. You may have to press and hold the power button on the right side of an Apple keyboard until the LED starts flashing.
    Otherwise see these support articles:

    Unreliable wireless performance may occur when USB 3.0 external devices are close

  • My iMac 24 can no longer be paired with the keyboard; it doesn't recognise any keyboard at boot up, even the one it is paired with. Can anyone help, please?

    Brian - The batteries are fine and there has only every been one keyboard paired with it. We have tried my MacPro keyboard as well, and it will not even recognise that there is a discoverable keyboard nearby.

  • How do I connect a Lexmark x6570 printer to my iMac wirelessly?  The basic user guides are not helping me and the add printer is not finding my printer...

    How do you connect a lexmark x6570 printer to an iMac wirelessly?  The basic user manuals are not helpful as the printer is not showing up when using the add printer function.  I my printer is working fine wirelessly with my windows laptop so it appears to be functioning fine.  This is my first time using an Apple at home...
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    I am using a Mac with this router. Any ideas how I can set it up to print wireless. Im not a tech person so this gets confusing for me sometimes. 
    Thanks!

  • Flat keyboard - no help key - eclipse

    Hi all,
    on eclipse, context-sensitive help is called by "help"-button. And it works fine with a standard mac-keyboard.
    But there's no help-button on the new flat keyboards or macbooks.
    Using AppleShift? doesn't work, creating a new shortcut in eclipse-preferences doesn't work too.
    It seems it has to be the original "help"-button, who's not there.
    The problem is discussed on fdt-board and eclipse-newsgroups, but without a solution.
    Does anyone know how to invoke context sensitive help with a macbook or a flat keyboard on eclipse?
    Or how to "bypass" the help-key to the f1-button in the system?
    thanks

  • I have just brought a new ipod and it won't work with my old imac as it is running pre 10.5 software. I can't upgrade the software, so what should I do?

    There is nothing to do, unless you buy a new computer.
    Mac OS 10.5.8 or later is required.

    When i want to ask the guaranty status of my apple wireless keyboard, i got an error: apple keyboard We're sorry, but this serial number is not valid. Please check your information and try again.

    If you purchased the iPhone from Apple or an authorized Apple reseller,
    contact them for assistance. If you purchased elsewhere, go back
    to that retailer and get them to give you a new iPhone or your money
    back.
    If you have checked the serial number carefully and re-entered it
    and that gave you the same error message, contact Apple if purchased
    from Apple or authorized retailer; otherwise you have been scammed
    and need to pursue the matter with the business you obtained the
    iPhone from.
