If you tell us what country you are in and give an example of keys that produce the wrong thing, we can probably tell you which input source you need to activate.

The 2012 MAC book doesn't boot
the 2012 MAC book doesn't boot, grey screen with the apple in the middle and the progress bar when it reaches the end it shuts off
Try SMC reset.
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer. -
my Mac book will power up but the apple sign remains in the middle of the screen and a gear turning below it -nothing else happens -can you help?
A couple of things to try:
PRAM reset by holding down cmd-opt-p-r on restart. Hold down the keys until you hear the second startup tone.
If you have a wireless keyboard, wait until you hear the startup tone, then press the keys.

Boot into Safe Mode by holding down Shift key on restart. Same timing applies to wireless keyboard.
Safe Mode takes a while to boot. It will show a progress bar. It will boot to the login screen. Log in, then restart normally.

Boot into Recovery HD by holding down cmd-r. Same note for wireless keyboard. Once booted, run Disk Utility and repair Macintosh HD (or whatever you have renamed it).

You can purchase Lion from the Mac App Store. You will need to meet the requirements for Lion, but the Mac App Store will tell you whether your Mac is capable of running Lion or not. -
Anyone had keyboard white letters on mac book air go blotchy and clouded and in first year
anyone had keyboard white letters on mac book air go blotchy and clouded and in first year
reality check,.....
I never mentioned it being covered by Apple or by Apple care. I know such wear is owner abrasion..... however such cases are usually not abrasion rather acid skin wear,....either way though it's not a defect rather usage marks. Also very possible due to rough skin on fingertips.
As to dominic and B being wrong that it will "be fixed".. you yourself do not know that and the OP should contact Apple, given the cost of keys are next to nill and Apple cust. service is #1, nobody knows the exact answer to 'covered or not'
*you are however correct on the letter glyphs.,, the keys are inverse over opaque. however its not painted rather a screening coat.
I'm so used to seeing 100,000+ keyboards over the years that are black plastic with white silk screening. As such, the silk screen comment was my error and I actually knew better, ..
~~Regardless of these facts, ...cursing did not validate your point one iota.
correcting a minor error by cursing in a family board is beneath you and shows poorly upon the decorum you are intended to present.

Mavric doesn't support my 5 years old Big Screen Display, OR? Tried to connect my Mac Book Pro after installing Mavric, The Screen didn't work as before. I could only see the Desktop but not the movies for example.
<E-mail Edited by Host>It appears what happened is the installer though it was looking at a empty drive and just went ahead and installed.
I of course am assuming here you didn't use Disk Utility to format the drive first before installing, that would wipe out your files and programs for sure.
So what to do, what to do.
Well there is hope for you as long as the drive wasn't Filevaulted.
I'll explain. When a hard drive writes data for the first time to a drive, it starts at the very top and works it's way down.
When OS X was installed the first time, it was at the top of the drive, unless you upgraded then the upgraded OS X could have been written elsewhere.
Now when you just reinstalled OS X, the new OS went on the top of the drive, overwriting any data that was there previously, so what was there you have lost forever which is about 8GB or so. If it was the previous OS there, then your more in luck because only the old OS X was overwritten.
The remaining space on the drive still can have a copy of your files, provided it's not overwritten yet.
It's because when a hard drive deletes data or reformats, it doesn't remove the data off the drive or overwrites it immediately, it's just made so it's SPACE is available for new files to be written there.
So technically one can recover the deleted data off a non-encrypted/scrubbed hard drive with special software.
The way it does this is it reads the 1's and 0's of the files themselves, and through a lot of figuring out, can tell what that file is and what it belongs too.
So what you will have to do is this:
Create a data recovery/undelete external boot drive
or if you don't have the skills, then take it to a local PC/Mac tech and they can do a direct image of the drive and then you can run Data Rescue on it to rebuild your files. -
Mac Book Pro on boot up, the apple sign will appear with the spinning wheel. After a period of time the screen will turn grey, but the mouse will still operate, but not boot up.
If it was purchased brand new then it's running a version of Lion, so to reinstall Lion:
Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button. -

I am planning to buy apple air mac book. i am not that technical will i be able to handle apple mac book. i am aware of using windows os but can i get software like that of notepad, word pad in os X lion. can i get partitioning in macbook,
Yes. Switching to Mac might be overwhelming at first, but it is not difficult. I Just started using Macs regularly about 9 months ago after using only Windows based pc's for over 15 years. Macs come with TextEdit , but you can also purchase MS Office for Mac or use Apple's version, called iWork.Yes, you can partition the hard drive of a Mac. Read these also: http://www.apple.com/support/switch101/, http://www.apple.com/support/mac101/. With regular use of a Mac, you will be able to use it without even thinking about it, just like how you learned to use a WIndows pc.

Does Apple mac books supports STADD V8i.pro
Greetings friends, I am an undergraduate civil engineer and i am going to do my MSc n Structural engineering and I am using apple Mac book for about 6 months and like to know whether the MACBOOK SUPPORTS STADDV8I PRO ... and i m totallu confused... help me out.. i dont know will it work propely or slows down.. graphical issues
i should be able to use all 12 cores
Using all the cores available is a Classic unsolved problem in Computer Science.
In general, very few Application Programs can do this, unless they have been hand-coded to do this. Some programs that are doing this are Ray Tracing, DVD-encoding, Frame Stress Analysis, Weather Forecasting or other Fluid Dynamics problems, or similar very specific Applications.
Almost everyone purchasing a 12-core computer is wasting their money unless they will be running such programs. The additional cores will simply not be used, regardless of what Operating System you are using.
For most Application Programs, a computer with fewer cores, but Faster is a better choice. These are more likely to be used and will always run at a faster speed when they do.
Most Users who are purchasing Macs are willing to pay the Premium Price to get the best User Interface there is on any computer, Mac OS X. If you expect to throw out Mac OS X, buy a less expensive Workstation-class computer from Dell or HP. -

how i can see video from my samsung galaxy 111 on my apple mac book 13
While I don't use a Mac, I belive you connect the device to the computer via USB and then import the file using a file utility similar to what you do when you import digital pictures. I'm guessing that the Mac has something like this?

and i've sharepoint 2010 sharepoint 2013 virtual machines can i run those two virtual machines on apple mac bookAre you looking for installing SharePoint Server on Mac Book?
If yes then I do not think it is possible because SharePoint server needs Windows Server OS for installation.
However SharePoint 2010 can be installed on a Windows 7 PC (Just for Development purpose)
