You posted in the OS 10.3 and earlier forum instead of the OS 10.6 forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

  • Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    Just bought a new mac mini, wireless keyboard, and track pad. My track pad will not synch. All advise I have been given is to change items in the setting menu, but I cant because I still have to get through the setup!!

    The power button for the Trackpad is on the right hand end of the battery case. Press that button to initiate the pairing process. On the top of the Trackpad just above the power button is a tiny green light (you probably cannot see it unless it is lighted). That light will indicate ehther or not the Trackpad is discoverable. If the Trackpad has discoverable the green light will blink on and off. If it does not pair within 3 minutes you will have to press the power button again to re-initiate the pairing process. Once your Trackpad has paired, you can just leave it on and it will pair automatically when you reboot your Mac.
    If you are having problems pairing, try turning off any other Bluetooth devices within 30 or so feet of your Mac mini. That includes other Computers, iPhones, iPads, etc. that may be in the area. Once your Trackpad has pairedwith your mini, you don't have to be concerned about other Bluetooth devices.
    One other hint, I find that although the Wireless Trackpad does not eat batteries as fast as the Magic Mouse it still uses more than the Wireless Keyboard. It is a good idea to keep a supply of AA batteries around. I have used Apple's Rechargable batteries, but found they did not last that long before needing to be recharged. I have had the best battery life from Duracell Quantum batteries.

  • Are the apple wireless keyboards and mac book pro keyboards the same size?

    Are the apple wireless keyboards and the mac book pro keyboards the same size? I have the most current wireless keyboard and I use it with my iPad. Thanks in advance

    I took it to the same shop where i purchased they sent it to the apple
    service centre and it is a week and no one informed me abt the problem
    or the action on it.
    We are mainly just users to users here, and sometimes a Apple folk will respond, but it's just a direction to a Apple support document, no service or account issues are handled here.
    Will they replace the mac book pro as it is still in warranty
    We don't know what Apple will decide to do in your case, the best source of information is the shop you brought it to.
    They might be in the process of fixing it, or they might be deciding they need to keep your machine for investigation.
    Apple will take care of you, make sure you buy AppleCare and a external drive for TimeMachine if you haven't already.

  • Control 2 macs with 1 keyboard and mouse

    I have two iMacs, 27 inch 10.7 and 24 inch with 10.6. Side by side. The two communicate wirelessly using Apple Wi fi.
    I want to use one keyboard and mouse for both.
    I have downloaded "synergy" on both computers, however, attempts to control both have failed.
    I know that Apple screen sharing is an option, but I would prefer to use "synergy" or a similar program.
    (I vaguely recall controlling both computers in the past, but cannot recall how I did it.)
    Help? Control two Macs with one keyboard and mouse. That is my goal.
    Thanks.

    Try the software Teleport from Abyssoft. http://www.abyssoft.com/software/teleport/
    I just installed Teleport on Macbook Air and Macbook Pro and am now working on both with a single wireless keyboard and glidepad simply by dragging mouse from one screen to the other.

  • MAC Remote Desktop Keyboard shortcuts

    It drives me crazy when in Mac I use cmd+c cmd+v while when using Remote Connection I need use crtl+c crtl+v.
    Parallels in theirs solution support both combinations in Windows. 
    Can you add option to Remote Connection for Mac to personalize (redirect) shrotcuts ?

    Hi Rafal,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    You can try below 2 methods, if it success for you.
    Method 1:
    You can set universal keyboard shortcuts in System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Application Shortcuts > All Applications, you can enter menu values (Save, Copy, Paste, etc) and then assign new key combinations to
    them.
    Method 2:
    1. On the RDC menu, click Preferences, and then click
    Keyboard.
    2. In the Mac column, double-click the keyboard shortcut that you want to change, and then press the combination of keys that you want to use instead.
    NOTE:  The new combination of keys must include one modifier key and at least one additional key, such as CONTROL + F10 .

    I need to transfer files from an 'original' iMac to a brand new one. The old Mac has no keyboard or mouse. Could it support a current wireless keyboard and mouse?

    Assuming that "original" means a G3/CRT iMac, not wireless. The G3 iMacs didn't have Bluetooth. The good news, though, is that any standard USB keyboard and mouse will work with them, even the ones designed for Windows that you can pick up for ten bucks or so.

  • MAC Mouse and Keyboard Do Not Work, when I am trying to re-install the OS using "Command R" option

    I am trying to re-install MAC OS 10.8.2, but when I hold "command R" I am asked for the firmware password, but the keyboard and mouse do not work.
    If I only select "option" during the boot up process it will ask me for the firmware password, keyboard and mouse work, but I can only select the HD option.
    Can someone advise what is the problem here, and your resolution.
    I have tried different commands "option + command + R' with no luck.

    I tried what was provided on the link, but it is not working.
    I hold it down, before the gray screen and the chime, but it only prompts but the firmware password.
    I tried based on the specific order in the support document and at a random press and hold.
    No go any other thoughts?

  • Can I control two Macs with one keyboard & mouse simultaneously?

    I'm presently the operator and head audio tech for a major Off-Broadway show. I'm running the show on Ableton Live 6 through a Mac Mini, using a MOTU 828mkIII as the Firewire audio interface to the console. "Show control" is basically straight music playback, plus arming and disarming loops, triggering sound FX cues, and stopping and starting playback. The show has been exceedingly stable, no real reason to worry - but the fact that I don't have a redundant backup system concerns me. Theoretically, I can use our Denon CD players to run the show off of discs I've burned, but it's only viable for me because I know the show; a sub running the show would be up the creek - and if we hit a snag and run out of loops, forget it. Furthermore, those of you who've worked with Live know that in a performance based/show control situation, you can remain in an audio loop indefinitely, without any worry of a CD running out of prerecorded loops. (This is a specific reason why we're using Ableton for this show - the music can keep "vamping" until automation and rigging give me the clear to proceed.)
    Considering that I'll be taking some time off this summer, I don't want this to be a concern for my sub(s), so I've charged myself with the task of building a redundant backup. Problem is, I'm not sure how to do it.
    What I've been looking at is a dual Ableton Live/Mac Mini/Firewire interface system. Basically, to duplicate what's running the show presently, and have it running in tandem while the main playback system goes to the house - but for both to be controlled by only one mouse, keyboard and screen, so there's no delay in the event of a crash. If one fails, I send the audio from the backup into the theatre. There would be no disruption of playback, except for the operator`s response time in switching to the backup`s audio output.
    Software like Synergy and Teleport let me share a single keyboard, mouse, and screen over two or more computers - +but only control one computer at a time+. And I've looked for KVM switches and USB "splitters" but they also seem to be toggle devices between one or another computer - which leads me to think I may have to network the two...
    Any ideas are appreciated, even the obvious ones, as I may have overlooked some or assumed some to be out of the question.
    That`s basically it - *simultaneous realtime* control of two computers from one keyboard and mouse. Both Minis performing the same task at the same time.
    Is there software/hardware that can do it, or can I network the backup as a "slave" that mimics the master?
    Thanks.

  • How do you Control Alt Delete on mac Book Pro keyboard when using VM Ware?

    This must be the stupidest question I'll ever have to ask...but....normally in the office I have a separate mac keyboard/screen/mouse and log into Windows via VM Ware. I am using the latest Mac Book Pro model. I have to click on the window and press Control Alt Delete before I log in. This works fine until the day I was out of the office and had to press Control Alt Delete via the Mac Book Pro's own keyboard and nothing happened. I passed the laptop over to 2-3 other mac friendly people and we all were left scratching our heads.
    Can anyone shed some light on this??
    Kris

    Google is your friend!*
    Turned up another Apple Discussions post that said to press  + U at the ctrl-alt-del prompt to bring up the 'visually challenged' tools, and to turn on the on-screen keyboard. This should allow you to log in, then once you are in, remap the keys to something more convenient, maybe assigning the right-hand-side command key to DEL. Unfortunately, I haven't used a Windows PC in ages, so I can't tell you how to do this.
    On a related note, I've just discovered that I don't have an  key on my MBP. You learn something new every day!

  • New Mac Mini - wireless keyboard issue

    I bought a new mini and wireless keyboard and mouse. The mouse works but the keyboard is not being recognized. Any help? It is a new mini so I cannot get onto the preferences and I do not have another mac keyboard.

    Scrounged a Microsoft USB mouse and plugged into Mac Mini. Allowed me to click through to new pane telling me I had no keyboard connected, please connect one. Well, that's progress.
    Took a number of attempts. Eventually it saw and displayed my KB's Bluetooth ID, but then failed. It was almost "reluctant," like it was trying to get out of work. This is not behavior I am used to from non-sentient digital equipment. Unless... never mind.
    With a functioning KB and mouse I finally was able to open Lion and System Preferences and discover the DEFAULT trackpad settings DISABLED clicks! I assume Apple has a method to what seems madness. Otherwise those Stuxnet saboteurs have been moonlighting in Cupertino to devise an out-of-the-box fail.
    I didn't start out an Apple fanboy but since 2007 their products have turned me into one. Yet I was so disappointed today I planned to return the Mac Mini, KB and Magic Trackpad tomorrow. My Apple Store is nearby. I kinda knew that USB end run would work, but I was insulted they made me resort to such a kludge.
    I cannot imagine why that initial Bluetooth pairing procedure hassle remains without some kind of service bulletin addressing known problems. So many people have commented on it over these boards. I flatter myself to conclude Apple does so many other things right that once in a while things get past them.
    As usual, now that I command Lion OSX on an HDTV from the couch, I'll be keeping this Mac Mini as part of my home's Apple suite, crossing my fingers against Bluetooth issues.

  • New Mac Mini-wired keyboard unresponsive

    Hello..
    I just took my banrd new 2.6 ghz Mac Mini out of the box. I hooked up my Apple wired keyboard and mouse from my ~~2009 Mac Pro.  The mouse functions. The keyboard is not responding--It works fine on my Mac Pro.  All I have done so far is turn the computer on and it wants to know my Wifi network.  I can select the network with the mouse but cannot enter the password.  The keyboard appears to be dead.  Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated...
    Thanks
    Rocky

    I have a feeling you've tried this already, but...
    Try plugging the keyboard into a different USB port on the back of your Mini. Plug the mouse into a USB port on the back of the Mini, too; not into one of the USB ports that may or may not be on your keyboard.
