Key fn + Backspace does not work with apple wireless keyboard
Hello,
I want to user the WIndows Key DEL. However, the apple wireless keyboard dosn't have such a key. I read, that FN + Backspace will solve this. It does not work on my apple wireless keyboard. I'm using BootCamp 3.2 and WIndows XP, running on a Mac Mini 2010.
In addition, I also read, that FN + Cursor Left sould work like POS1. But this doesn't work, too.
Windows shows for the keyboard: Deutsch (Apple)
Regards Dirk
Hi mate,
This worked for me:

Auto-capitalization not working with apple wireless keyboard?
My ipad settings have auto-cap on. When using the on-screen keyboard the auto-cap works. When I switch to the wireless apple keyboard auto capitalization fails to work.
Any suggestions?
Does anyone have the wireless apple keyboard working with auto cap on iPad?Did you ever find a solution to your problem? I have the same issue but mine also includes the period shortcut.
If I am hooked up to my keyboard the auto stuff doesn't work even if I manually tap the screen to type.
The fact that this does not work is the issue - not laziness in relying on shortcuts. This needs to be fixed. -

Brightness control does not work with the bluetooth keyboard connected on my iPad2. Please someone could help me ?
Julien-
I have the Apple MC184LL/A Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard. The brigtness control works with mine, as do most of the other functions.
Try cycling the keyboard off and on. Hold the power button until the green LED goes out. Then press it one more time to turn it back on.
You might try resetting the iPad's network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. Then you may need to reconnect your WiFi and Bluetooth.
If that doesn't help, try resetting/rebooting the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart in a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

Home sharing does not work with apple tv
Can anyone help me. I used to be able to stream all content from my home master computer to my Apply TV. Now it suddenly does not work.
Apple TV itself works just fine. I can also airplay using it with out IPADs.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes. Reset the modem/router. Reset Appletv. Tried with Norton disabled. etc.
Nothing seems to work.
I keep getting the 'Turn on your home sharing in Itunes' message. But it is on.
Help is appreciated.Welcome to the Apple Community.
Sometimes just disabling Norton isn't enough, you may need to hunt down every last file it has written to your computer then re-install iTunes. I understand Norton can be quite a nasty little intrusion.
I know very little about PC's or security software as I have neither, but the following article might help you.

IPhone (3,3G,4) does not work with Apple Universal Dock.
I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch that has been upgraded to iOS 4. My iPod Touch will no longer sync via the Apple Universal Dock. Also, my new iPhone 4 also will not sync via the Apple Universal Dock.
Trust a geek not to give up. I decided to get to the bottom of the "iOS device does not work with the Apple Universal Dock" problem. I noticed that the iPhone 4 and iPad came with slightly different USB-Dock adapter cables. I wondered if that might be the issue. My Apple Universal Dock was connected to my Mac via the original dock adapter cables which are slightly larger. I connected the newer cables between the Mac and the Apple Universal Dock and .... voila! Both the iPod Touch with iOS 4 and the iPhone can now connect via the Apple Universal Dock. Apple changed something in the way the adapter cables function.
Of course I still have the problem with the car head unit dock adapter ... Sigh. I'll have to call Best Buy ( uughh! ) and find out if they'll do the update for me. The were the vendor authorized installer. -
FN key not working on Apple Wireless Keyboard
EDIT: Found the culprit: USB Overdrive was taking over the external keyboard. After disabling USB Overdrive for the keyboard, the FN key started working again.
I have Macbook Air (Mid 2013) connected to a Cinema Display and Apple Wireless Keyboard. MBA is running the latest Yosemite (10.10).
I tried using FN + Delete on the wireless keyboard to forward delete but it didn't work, it just deleted. I tried other keyboard shortcuts that require the use of FN key, and none of them work either. But when I try these directly on the MBA's keyboard, the FN key works perfectly there, just not on the wireless keyboard.
I've removed the bluetooth keyboard and tried reconnecting, restarting computer, login out and back in. Nothing works. Anyone have any ideas?
Message was edited by: Isko SalminenI disabled "Any Keyboard, Any Application" and "Any Other, Any Application" but I still could not use my Fn key on my Apple Wireless Keyboard. Uninstalling (removing the driver) restored Fn key functionality. In addition downgrading from 3.1 to 3.0.2 on Yosemite also solved this issue.
Did you actually try what you wrote?
I should also note that the Fn key on my rMBP's internal keyboard works with 3.1, oddly enough, but the Apple Wireless Keyboard's Fn key does not. -
ICloud does not synchronize Notes.app with Apple Wireless Keyboard in use
I own an Apple Wireless Keyboard and an iPhone 4 with the newest software, iOS5.1
When using the build-in Notes application by Apple and the original Apple Wireless Keyboard, synchronizing fails. I guess this is because Notes.app never triggers the "synchronize event", like it does when using the on-screen-keyboard. The trigger "done" is just missing. This error might also happen in other (build-in) apps, I've just seen it with the Notes.app
Could you please tell me if you already know this issue and are working on it? I told Apple Support about it for iOS version 5.0 and nothing changed since then. Please advise.Welcome to the Apple Community.
First check that all your settings are correct, that notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the notes you are adding are added to your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by checking in accounts on an iOS device, or the left side panel in mail on a computer), non iCloud notes will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your notes are in the iCloud group, you might try unchecking notes syncing (mail and notes on a computer) in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling notes syncing. -

Does Expose work with the wireless keyboard?
I've been trying to use Expose with no luck. I hit F9 and I either fast forward through a video or nothing happens (depending on whether iTunes is on).
I've opened Expose in preferences and confirmed the keys, even changed them to see what happens. Nada. I can only think that it might have to do with the wireless keyboard. I do have Expose set for my mouse but when I deselect that it doesn't change the fact that I can't access with my F buttons.
What do you think?

Option Key for Boot Camp not working with New iMac Keyboard
Hi, I own a early 2006 Intel iMac. Recently, my wife complained that the keyboard was getting dirty. Basically I think she liked the new keyboard on the new Aluminum iMac better. We purchased it back in August and everything worked great. Oh I also had the beta version of Boot Camp installed. Everything worked great, hold Option down on boot and could choose which OS to go into.
Fast forward to now, purchased Leopard and love it! Decided to wipe the system and do a fresh install. Everything is installed (Leopard, Boot Camp, Windows XP) and working great, that is except when I press and hold the Option key at start up. If I have the new keyboard installed, the Option key does not bring up the boot manager. However if I plug the original keyboard in and hold Option, it works!!!
Ok I could see a problem if the new keyboard was NOT an Apple product. But it is and frustraiting as I can use the control panel to choose. This is a long round about method and does not make a happy wife with me. HELP!
Jhan JensenThanks for the info! I was about to call myself and I may still do so. I am hoping if Apple gets enough of these calls then maybe it will spur them on to get it done sooner. (Apple are you listening) I will do the same with the KB swapping, she will be happy at least she can still use the new keyboard. She types a lot and has be really happy with the new keyboard and its response.
Thanks again for the help!!!

IPhone 4 wifi not working with apple wireless network

I am having a strange problem with my iPhone 4.
It won't detect the wireless network, I have a time capsule with an airport express.
I have another network that is not an apple hardware and that runs fine but slightly weak.
At the office I also have time capsule based wireless network and there it is the same issue.
Contacted apple support but they had no idea and as they cannot support the iPhone in Belgium but rattier their crappy chosen GSM provider that the word support does not exist in their world.

The 1 key does not work on my wireless keyboard what do i do?
Hi i had a usb keyboard for a while and the 1 key did not work but i could but use the numbers on the right side of the keyboard but we just got a wireless keyboard that doesnt have the other numbers on the right side so we cannot use the number 1. But it will work in the login window and on other accounts. i do not know how to fix it, what do i do?
Hello:
If I understand you, the number one key works some places, but not others. This is true of the wireless KB as well as the old wired KB.
If I do understand, let us know. If what is happening is different, post the correct information, please.
