Need help remapping new keyboard

I got a new keyboard for my Mac but some of the keys don't seem to be working as I need them.  The keyboard is made to function with both OSX and iOS, so it has some F buttons that will work for both, such as volume, brightness, etc. However, some of the regular keys have been replaced to work with iOS, the most important ones being the ESC key and the Eject key. The keys won't work as what I need them to and I can't seem to find a program that will let me just remap them to those keys. What can I do to map those keys properly?

Hey rios741416,
Have you already tried using the options in the Keyboard pane of the system preferences to accomplish this goal?
OS X Mavericks: Change keyboard, mouse, and trackpad settings
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14317
To change settings for your keyboard, use the Keyboard pane of System Preferences.
You can adjust the key repeat and make other changes to keyboard keys, choose text options, modify keyboard shortcuts, and choose a different input source (such as Greek or Chinese).
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,
Braden

  • Need help remapping my keyboard

    I just recently purchased an iMac and there are only a few things about the keyboard that I'm having trouble getting around. I need help assigning a different function to a couple of keys.
    1.) I need the 'Home' key to go to the beginning of the first word on that line
    2.) I need the 'End' key to go to the last letter of last word
    3.) I would very much like for the cursor to follow me when I hit page down or page up
    Any help would be appreciated. I'm not techy or a 'computer whizz' by any definition of the word so go easy on me if you can!

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions. 
    Take a look at DoubleCommand (link).
    The Home and End keys do work in some applications without extra software... MS Word is one example.

  • Cant type password 2get in2 lap-keyboard broke-help with new keyboard

    Hi, i need to put a new keyboard into my laptop because some of the keys on my current one arent working. I know how to get the laptop open and replace keyboard, but what i am not sure about is if i will be able to use new keybaord straight away or if it will need some sort of installing once laptop on? ..... because my prob at moment is that i cannot get onto the laptop as need to insert my password at turn on, but two of the letters i need arent working!!
    so in short, can i put in new keyboard and it work straight away so that i cen enter password and back onto laptop.
    thanks for any help Jen

    While I cannot answer your question from personal experience, I suspect the answer to your question is that there is no need for any set up.
    However, you should be able to attach any USB keyboard (no setup needed) and use IT to log on to your computer.
    Good luck!

    Now i got my music on her itunes libary but when i did a test download of an app, it wont show in the library. I have even done the 'transfer purchases'. and its still not showing. I am slowing loosing the will to live with it! I really need help.

  • NEED Help Importing new Activities.

    Hi All,
    I am working on a project where I have been asked to add two new activities to all the 841 WBS codes belonging to the project. That means I have to add around 1600 new activities. So instead of going through the tedious task of adding those manually, I was wondering if there was an easier way like importing from Excel or anything else to do this. I need to finish this within this week, so I need help urgently.
    Please Help

    You can absolutely add new activities in via Excel import however how much easier this ultimately is depends on the structure of your project (ActIds, Codes, Relationships, etc) and the underlying data to be added.
    In a large project I have some exposure to Excel is used frequently to make activity level additions/changes, but the schedulers spent a decent amount of time early in the project re-naming activity ID's for grouping purposes (I believe specifically to help with excel imports).
    If your additions to each WBS follow any sort of consistent pattern then it may be quicker to use Excel. Even if it ends up not saving much time initially, at the very least you will have a process down for the next time you need to make major changes to your schedule.

  • Need help buying new hard drive

    I have a macbook that needs a new hard drive and need help knowing what hard drives to buy that will be compatible with it. It is a macbook pro 17inch model no: A1297.
    Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

    Any 2.5" diameter, 9.5mm thick SATA drive will be compatible.  Currently they come up to 1.5 TB in capacity.  I have a 1 TB Seagate SSHD (hybrid) drive installed in my primary MBP.  The cost is a modest premium over a conventional HDD of the same capacity.  Boot and shutdown times are significantly faster when compared to a conventional HDD,  I can recommend this as an option.
    If the bank account permits, an SSD will produce the overall maximum performance gains.  Boot, shutdown and resource hungry applications will be noticeably faster.  Casualyll use such as e-mails and text editing will produce no meaningful performance differences compared to a conventional HDD.
    I am of the opinion that the cost premium is still too high for the benefits that they afford.  Other have different views.
    Ciao.

  • Qosmio X500 - Need to purchase new keyboard

    Hi
    can anyone tell me which particular exact Replacement Keyboard do I need for my Toshiba Laptop...?
    It is a Backlit Keyboard UK & Black
    * The Spacebar Key does NOT work and I need to buy a Replacement complete Keyboard to fix this problem
    The Laptop Mode Number etc is as follows:->>>
    Model Name QOSMIO X500
    Part Number PQX33E-02X01UEN
    Do you need the Serial No. as well..?
    Please can anyone tellme as the more I look I find so many different keyboards that I am gettingconfused which is the RIGHT replacement KEYBOARD for my Laptop..?
    Thanks
    A

    Hi
    As far as I know the compatible keyboard has a part number: A000048040
    But you can use any standard A4+10key flat half glossy black keyboard.
    You can also contact (call) the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country to get (order) a new keyboard for this X500 Qosmio series.
    The guys would be able to order such keyboard directly from Toshiba.

  • [Athlon64] Noob needs help optimizing new system

    Sorry to post yet another thread, but I've been lurking for the past few days and I only get bits and pieces of what I need. I'm pretty clueless about this stuff as it's my first home-built system
    See my sig for system info...
    I'm needing help with bios settings. The pertinent stuff (I think - hopefully I got it all down):
    CELL MENU
    CPU Clock speed: 2200
    DDR Memory Freq: 100.0 MHz
    High performance mode: Manual
    Cool n quiet: Disable
    HT Freq: 800 MHz
    Dynamic overclocking: Disable
    Adjust CPU Ratio: Auto
    AGP Freq: By Default
    HT Voltage: Auto
    Mem voltage: Auto
    CPU voltage: Auto
    AGP Voltage: Auto
    Spread sectrum: Disable
    DRAM
    DRAM Clock Mode: Manual
    Mem clock value: DDR200
    CAS Latency: SPD
    Burst Length: 8 Beat
    Bank Interleaving: Auto
    Active to CMD (Trcd): SPD
    Active to precharge (Tras): SPD
    Precharge to active (Tvp): SPD
    DRAM IT Timing: Disable
    ADVANCED CHIPSET FEATURES
    AGP Mode: Auto (this is "greyed out")
    AGP Fast write: Enabled
    AGP Aperture size: 128
    VLink 8X supported: Enabled
    My questions mainly concern memory. I bought all this stuff at the Tiger Direct outlet store in Naperville, Illinois. I had intended to buy the K8T Neo-FSR (754 pin), but they were supposedly out of the 754 pin 3400+, and this board/CPU combo had a $100 rebate. Yeah, it's one of those deals with the odd 939 pin 3400+ that everyone has been talking about.
    In any case, I already had the Corsair CMX512-3200C2PT picked out, as Corsair said it was compatible with the board. I wasn't aware of the MSI compitibility chart until I came here later that night. I STILL can't find that chart off of the MSI web site.
    Anyway, I got it all hooked up and got the standard 4 red LEDs. Not knowing what to do, I took it back to Tiger Direct and the tech played around with it until he stuck an el-cheapo stick (Corsair VS512MB400) in there and it worked. But it only works in slot 2. So here I am.
    I started to run memtest86, but it took too long to run and I aborted it for now. For what it's worth, it said the RAM CAS value is 2.5-2-2-5. I don't know what the hell that means, but I know it's important.
    My questions:
    1. I assume I need manually to set my memory clock value to DDR400?
    2. Now that I can get the thing to post, is there any chance I could get the "good" Corsair memory to work by setting the correct latency/CAS values? Again, I don't know what I'm talking about, so forgive my ignorance. What I'm wondering is if I can set everything to what Corsair recommends while I have the cheap memory in there and then replace it with the good stuff?
    3. With this board, am I better off with double-sided or single-sided sticks? As I said, I went into the store intending to buy the Neo 754-pin board, but they were out of the Athlon 3400+ in 754 and only had the 939 pin.
    4. Anything else in my bios settings that stand out and need to be addressed? I want to make sure everything is optimized.
    EDIT: I almost forgot: My CPU temp is runing around 42-49 degrees. Am I in the danger zone? I just bought a generic cooler for now and intend to get a Thermalright XP-120, but I can't find it locally, so it will have to wait.
    AND FINALLY...
    I don't know if this is related to anything above, but I have been having a hell of a time getting the 6600GT to run DirectX9+ games. The latest drivers for Windows 98SE was 66.94. Yes, XP will be installed soon, but for now... It was failing on dxdiag test for Direct3d 9 and also the third DirectDraw test. I was about to give up and take it back when I discovered that a new beta driver came out today (71.84). I installed it and it passed all of the dxdiag tests. I thought I was in hawg-heaven, but when I run Call of Duty (the only DX9 game I have besides HL2), it slows to an absolute clawl. The level starts out somewhat normal at first, but quickly slows down to the point that performance can only be measured in seconds per frame! All of the patches 1.5 and 1.51 for UO have been installed, but that shouldn't make a bit of difference.
    If I don't get my CoD fix soon I'm gonna reinstall that Geforce3.
    Thanks much and sorry again for such a long post.

    Thanks everyone for the recent replies, but I started this thread almost a month ago (March 3rd), and much has changed since then.
    New PSU (see sig).
    Replaced the PNY Geforce6600GT with a eVGA 6800
    Added another stick of the Corsair Value Select 512 RAM. I didn't even bother trying to get the "primo" CMX stick to work. I just returned it.
    Went from Windows 98SE to XP Home.
    The PSU did nothing for me at all, but I suppose it's better to have some headroom in the amperage.
    The biggest performance booster was the additional 512MB of RAM. It wouldn't have done me any good in 98SE, but I was shocked at how much it helps XP. Quitting a game is almost instant now, where before it would take a good two minutes or so for XP to recover itself.
    As for games running slow, the 6800 fixed it right up. CoD absolutely screams now, as does everything else I've thrown at it (HL2, Doom 3, Far Cry). I think the 6600GT was just bad or there is a serious driver problem with the 6600GT's. Went from 3DMark03 score of around 5000 (when it didn't crash) to above 9000 now. And this was all before adding the additional RAM.
    Oh yeah, I bought a 74GB Raptor. No RAID for now though. So far I'm not real impressed with the performance. I'm running off of the VIA controller, since my board doesn't have the Promise controller. I don't see much improvement in loading times as compared to the 40GB 7200rpm Maxtor I have running on IDE1. The only time it beats the pants off the Maxtor is defragging. But there's only so much entertainment value in that.  The Sandra "file system benchmark" gave me 57 MB/s, which seems pathetic, but I've read some posts here where others are getting an identical rate.
    And I'm not too happy to discover, too late, that my overclocking capabilities are severely limited while using SATA.
    I do have one more question for now:
    When I installed the second 512MB stick, I originally had both sticks in slot 1 and 2. I ran Sandra's memory bandwidth benchmark and got a much lower score than with the single stick (around 3500 MB/s). WHen I had the sticks in 1 and 3, it jumped up to close to 6000 MB/s. Why is that? Just curious.

  • Need Help with new site glitches PLEASE!!!

    I need help trouble shooting a website. The site is
    www.farrowandwatkins.com. Nav buttons on Mac they display correctly
    which is aligned at top and bottom of content to left on Home page.
    However, when viewed on PC, the buttons spread to fill the
    distance of the "Patients" Page. All the pages spread to this
    length also, but are not suppose to.
    Nav buttons have padding of 10 on bottom, except last one.
    Please help if you can

    First guess would be that there doesn't seem to be a fixed
    height or width on the cell for the 'patients' button.

  • Need help with new 8310

    Just upgraded from earlier blackberry and have two problems I need help with!
    First, in rearranging the icons my browser icon disappeared and I can't get it back even when I use the show all function.  Any ideas?
    Second, unlike my earlier blackberry, messages I sent from my office laptop are not appearing in my messages.  What setting do I need to tweak?  I like my blackberry to show all the messages sent from or received by the laptop.
    Thanks.
    Lauren

    My BB setting was to not hide sent messages, but the problem I think has to do with the settings on syncing with my computer.  Messages I send from the blackberry show up as sent - but I want the BB to match completely with the email on my computer - show every email received and every email sent.  That was how the old BB was set up.  Any ideas on what else to tweak either on the desktop or the BB?  Thanks for your help.
