INSERT key in wireless keyboard

I´m new with Mac so totally unexperienced.
I´m used from my windows pc to have an insert key in the keyboard which does not exist in my wireless keyboard of my mac mini. Please help me out I need to use it for certain programs.
thanks in advance

What are you trying to do in Terminal? I use *nix too, SSH to alot of things.. oddly, never needed any "Insert" key.
can you clarify?

Plus and minus keys on wireless keyboard?

hi there everyone. i've got a new aluminum wireless keyboard and i love it to bits. gorgeous bit of design and elegance. on the previous apple keyboard however there was a couple of handy keys next to the numeric pad for 'plus' and 'minus'. Does anyone know how i can find these on the wireless keyboard? these were particularly handy when hit with the 'command' key to increase or decrease the size of text in safari.

excellent, thank you, i'd obviously not looked at my keyboard closely enough! cheers...

Is there any way to get function keys on wireless keyboard to function like they do on a PC for the iPad?

The program is E-term by Eclipse.
Hoping to be able to use wireless keyboard to do this.
No luck so far.

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the post. I researched on your issue using different combinations of VI, pane, and path control event and was unsuccessful in getting an event to fire when the drag starts outside of the LabVIEW window. I think you are on the right path with using a Windows API, which then could be interfaced into LabVIEW using ActiveX or .NET containers. If you are able to detect it, then you can use a user event to fire a drag start in LabVIEW. This should then allow you to successfully fire a drag over event. The NI Developer Zone article below will get you started on creating and using user events:
Using Dynamic Event Registration to Watch for User Inaction With a Control
Hope this helps to get you started on the right path. Have a good evening!

Hi Jonah,
Thanks for your efforts in confirming my results. I'd prefer not to use any activex or .net containers, since this will make the code extremely coupled to a specific platform. If I can find a way to do this, using window handles or something, via WinAPI that would be preferable, because I could use a conditional disable structure to comment out the code on non-windows machines.
If anyone has any ideas about how to receive these events, using window handles and messaging, that would be great.
Thanks,
-Jim

How to use shortcut keys on wireless keyboard with ipad

i just purchased an ipad 4 with a wireless keyboard and do not know how to use the function keys on the wireless keyboard to access the homescreen, scroll up and down, etc. please help with anything i need to turn on/off or download . thanks

If you have more than one keyboard active, you may be using a different one than you want. Use the "globe" key to make sure your virtual keyboard is set to Japanese Romaji or Japanese Kana. Which one do you use?
On the hardware keyboard, use apple/command plus space to switch between different keyboard layouts which may be active.

The number keys on wireless keyboard don't work

Which version of OS X are you using?
• If Snow Leopard (10.6.x) or earlier, go to System Preferences > Universal Access
• If Lion (10.7.x) or later. go to System preferences > Accessibility
In the Mouse section in the preceding, look for the item Mouse Keys - if that function is "on", turn it off.

Some function keys on wireless keyboard not working on iphone 4

I'm having trouble with the brightness and volume keys on my wireless keyboard when its paired with my iphone 4. They won't respond at all. Any fixes? i'm on version 4.3.5

Since the wireless aluminum keyboard was originally intended for personal computer use, I don't believe any of the function keys will work for your iPhone or even an iPad device.

Arrow keys on wireless keyboard

I just purchased an HP wireless keyboard for my HP Touchpad. I cannot figure out how to work the arrow keys.....is there a user manual I can find online about navigating my keyboard? Thanks so much for your help.

Hi,
There is a quick guide in the box. You may be able to find a manual for it but do you know what is it ? HP has many wireless keyboard models.
Regards.

Reassigning keys on wireless keyboard

I've recently acquired an iMac with a wireless keyboard, I'm aware that some of the function keys can be reassigned or 'inverted' so the function swaps when pressing the 'fn' key.
What I'm interested in is making specific changes, for instance 'Dashboard' is assigned to 'F4' and 'fn+F12' - I'd like to assign something else to fn+F12' - or reassign the 'eject' key as '(forward) delete' (Eject could then be used with the 'fn' key. (I use forward delete far more often than eject!)
It's not a major issue, but thought I'd pose the question.
Thanks up front.

My new Apple wireless keyboard (short version) has only the delete key on it. Is there a way to program the additional delete key, allowing me to delete in the right-hand direction? The current delete key deletes only the in the left-hand direction.
Thank you,

Keys on wireless keyboard not working

Finally got my wireless keyboard to pair. However the only keys that work are some of the function keys - nothing else works.
imac with OS X 10.9.1 ---- have zaped PRAM etc - done a hard re-start - changed batteries -- all to to avail. Took keyboard back to store where it worked fine on their computer. Can't figure out how to get tech support - apple makes it as difficult as they can to get any support. Keyboard is brand new.
Incidently the only way I have been able to 'pair' is by going to Bluetooth in preferences rather than 'Keyboard'. If I try the 'Keyboard' route it cant find the keyboard. But if I go to 'Bluetooth' in preferences it will show as connected which it obviously is because some of the function keys work - but nothing else.
Would appreciate any ideas.

Keys on wireless keyboard not functioning

I've just returned from a one-week trip to discover that a few of the keys on my Apple Wireless Keyboard are no longer functioning. These include the all-important DELETE key and also the double apostrophe key, though the comma key still works (comma key + SHIFT = double apostrophe).
Any ideas on how to fix this problem? I'm hoping it doesn't mean my keyboard is shot for good.
Thanks,
Georgia
