Is the new iMac keyboard (small) the same as the one in the new 15" MBP?

Hi, I have an easy question but I couldn't find any information on the Internet. I just bought a 24" iMac and I was willing to buy a skin for the keyboard (I already have an iSkin for my 15" 2008 MacBook Pro and is great). When I opened the box I had the surprise of a smaller keyboard (without the number keypad). So the skin that I was looking to buy for the imac keyboard did not fit in the new one. My question is, if the iMac keyboard is the same as the one in the new 15" MacBook Pro. I ask this because I can't find a skin for the new small imac keyboard and if it is the same as the MacBook Pro I can buy the skin for that keyboard. But before wasting my money I wanted to be sure they are the same.
Thank you very much in advance

That's no news, although it there are other things apart from the layout that could make them different: the spaces between keys and the format of the keys are also important. As I don't have an new MBP I was wondering if someone could tell me if the keyboard of the imac and the one of the MBP are the same.

  • Using the new imac keyboard on the macbook pro

    is there a software update that allows the use of the new features of the imac keyboard when hooked up to a Macbook pro (core2duo) It would be great if the screen brightness, dashboard keys, etc would function as they are labeled.

    I suppose you're thinking of the 27" iMac that might be used as an ext screen and/or the 24" LED.
    Both come with a MiniDisplayPort input - that will work with current MBpros. If you want to connect an older MacBookPro with only a DVI connector you'll need an additional DVI to MiniDP converter.
    Such animals exist and cost approx 100 Euro like this one: http://www.atlona.com/Atlona-DVI-to-Mini-DisplayPort-Converter-p-17859.html

  • I bought this very nice iMac. The first time I ever use a Apple product. Can someone please tell me where the delete key is on the keyboard. I cannot think for one moment that Apple did not provide for such a key. Please help.

    I bought this very nice iMac. The first time I ever use a Apple product. Can someone please tell me where the delete key is on the keyboard. I cannot think for one moment that Apple did not provide for such a key. Please help.

    The delete key does a backward delete because it is the natural way to delete while typing. May not be to you and the millions of youngsters who grew up with windows computers. When you are typing and want to delete that which you just typed you are already at the end and you delete back to where you want to re-type. When you go back to a document and want to delete a selection, you have to go to the end of the selection instead of the beginning. it's just the way its always been done on macs. it takes some getting use to.
    If you select text to be deleted with your mouse then the delete key deletes the selected text. same for either delete key method.
    It is not convenient when you tab to fields in a form. That why fn-delete does a forward delete.
    Macs have a couple of keyboards. The small "wireless keyboard" only has the (backward) delete (fn-delete forward). The larger "Apple Keyboard with Numeric Keypad" has both a Delete (backwards) key beside the = abd it has the "delete >" key in the groups with fn, home, end, Pg up and Pg dn. This keyboard is best for users who have switched from windows or are familiar with the windows forward delete.

  • I have a new (mid-2011 27" Imac with 2 Thunderbolt ports each driving one 27" Thunderbolt display. The 3 displays work perfectly in OSX Lion but in Bootcamp 4.0 with Windows 7 (64 bit) only 2 screens come up. everything is up to date. Anyonce who can help

    I have a new (mid-2011 27" Imac with 2 Thunderbolt Ports each driving one 27" Thunderbolt display.
    Graphic card is AMD Radeon HD 6970M  with 2Gb of VRAM.   All works 100% in Lion but
    in Bootcamp 4.0 running windows 7 Professional (64 bit) Only 2 of the 3 screens work not all three.
    Tried updates, calling Apple etc. But no luck.  Windows doesn't recognize the 3rd screen while
    checking on the driver in windows is tells me it's the latest and best available. ?  In VMware
    Windows 7 also works fine over three screens so windows can do it. But I need it natively to
    work. (i.o.w. in Bootcamp). Does Anybody know how to solve this, or if Apple is working on a
    solution for this ?  It really hurts to have one of these expensive screens staring at you being dead.

  • 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.

    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.

    You should really read the manual.
    "How do you restore from backup? "
    Restore.  When given the choice, choose to use backup.
    "And how can I check to see if the pics and videos are on my computer somewhere first??"
    They would only be where you put them.  What program did you use to import them?  Pics/vids taken with ipod are not part of the sync process at all.  You should be importing them just as you would with any digital camera.
    If you did not import them, then they are not on your computer.

  • My own package of the same name as one in the repo...

    In a nutshell, how does pacman handle a user-created package of the same name as one in the repo?  I ask because I'd like to customize the build options on a package that's in the official repo.  Is it best to simply change the name of my package or is pacman smart enough to know that package xyz installed locally is not to be upgraded to package xyz from the repo?

    thayer wrote:What I typically do is bump the release number to 99, such as foopackage-1.0-99.  By doing it this way pacman won't upgrade the package unless a new upstream release is made, such as 1.1 in the previous example.
    Similarly, if you build a package locally to fix some packaging bug, and you expect that you'll be interested in any updates at all, I bump the release number by 0.1 so it's bigger than the version I'm fixing but smaller than whatever the Arch maintainer will supply next.

  • Will the new 13 MBP 2.4 Ghz be fast enough to properly run Aperture 3?

    I'm in the market for purchasing a macbook pro (currently have an 07' model macbook), and my question is will the 13 inch 2.4 Ghz be able to properly run aperture 3? My current macbook is able to run it, but quickly overheats and becomes alot slower, and while the 15 inch mbp does sound great, the size is just too big for me (also on a tight budget).
    Thanks for the help.

    Depends on your definition of properly and, more specifically, what types of images you usually work with in Aperture. JPEGS would be no problem. Smaller RAW files should be fine as well. If, however you're working with RAW files from a newer DLSR (15-24 megapixels each), then you're going to find Aperture sluggish. This isn't only because of the processor, which is still decent, but also because of the slower integrated graphics rather than the higher performance discrete graphics found in the larger MacBook Pros.
    You'll also have a relatively slow 5400 RPM hard drive unless you're going for an SSD (which I doubt given your budget). All these factors add up to limit performance in one of the most performance intensive apps around.
    FWIW, if Aperture is your primary app (it's mine and I love it), I'd go with a 15". Besides performance, the screen size on a 13" is pretty small for working with apps like Aperture and Photoshop and hi-res photos. If you really can't swing the 15", you might want to take a look at Lightroom. Although I don't like it as much as Aperture, particularly when it comes to organizing my images, it does perform much better on slower hardware.

    The music sync is one way - computer to ipod.  The only exception is ituens purchases.  The ipod is not a backup device.
    Copy everything from the old computer or your backup copy of your old computer, to the new one.

    Regarding your first question about bookmarks, I think you discovered the answer in when you pressed the address bar. The second tab there has your bookmarks.
    As for the keyboard, I'm not sure why your Firefox is reacting so slowly; mine seems to show keyboards even when I don't want them. If you have accumulated a lot of history, perhaps that's an issue?
    Did you use any third party software to move your Firefox data from internal memory to the storage card?
