New keyboard and intel iMac not working at startup with Leopard. Help?

Hi,
I'm using an Intel Core Duo 20" iMac and Apples' new keyboard. With Tiger, at first the keyboard wasn't recognized by the system during startup. After installing keyboard software update 1.2 everything worked fine.
Now I've installed Leopard and I'm back to where I was: the keyboard again isn't recognized at startup, so I'm forced to use the remote during startup to change to the windows partition , and I'm not able to reset PRAM settings.
Anyone with a solution?
Thanks

Start-up commands are NOT recognized on Core Duos - YET...
there is an expected firmware update in the near future
for all start-up commands - use the old keyboard
ALSO - holding down the menu button on your remote during start-up allows you to select a start-up drive while moving with the control function
+found that by accident...+
Thanks,
den

  • Keyboard and trackpad are not working, Keyboard and trackpad are not working

    I'm using MBP 15" late 2008 with Maverick OS. A couple of days ago, the internal keyboard and trackpad are not working at all. I did all the troubleshooting. I even reformat it; installing the snow leopard and re-installing the maverick but no good result. I believe there's no problem with my keyboard because i can still do PRAM on my lappy. Everytime i'm booting up my MBP, it always looking for bluetooth trackpad and keyboard. I have not used those bluetooth peripherals from day 1 i've started using MBP. I just read on the internet about the same problem has happened on MBP 13" retina and APPLE fixed it by updating the software. I wish Apple will also do something for the old MBP to fix the intermal keyboard and trackpad problem.

  • My wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on my All-In-One computer?

    Q.: My wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on my All-In-One computer?
    A.: If your wireless keyboard and mouse do not work even after changing the batteries, please try re-syncing them by following these steps.
    1. Make sure the computer is on, plug in the USB receiver. Push the button on the USB receiver until it flashes blue.
    2. While the receiver is still flashing, press the red connect button on the keyboard (Make sure the batteries are installed). The USB receiver should stop flashing after pressing the button on the keyboard. It may take up to 8 seconds to sync.
    3. Repeat the same process for the mouse. Push the button on the USB receiver, then press the connect button on the mouse (Make sure the mouse is on).
    Note: This applies to all MSI All-In-One computers that include the ES500W wireless keyboard and SW130 mouse.

    "This machine has an added 4 USB ports, could this be causing a problem?
    It definitely could be the source of the problem. Perhaps the PCI card was bumped loose during shipping?
    Have you tried removing the card? That's where I would start.
    Keep us posted.

  • Installed ios 6 on new iPad and siri will not work.

    Good morning, I installed ios6 on the new iPad and siri will not work. Each time I try to use siri she says "uh oh, I'm having a problem. Please try again. I have tried turning siri off and back on again. Resetting the iPad, resetting the network, turning Airplane Mode off and on again. All to know avail. My iphone 5 works great and so does my wife's iphone 4s with ios6. I have called Apple support but there only suggestion was that the servers were busy. If that was the case my other devices would not work either. Plus the servers wouldn't be busy for four days. Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I was looking forward to using siri on the new iPad and other folks don't seem to be having a problem.
    Thanks, and have a great day.

    Then you need to change your device details as this still says iPad2.
    It's very possible Apple's servers have been busy for 4 days as not everyone downloaded iOS 6 on the day it was announced. I downloaded it last Friday, myself, as an example.
    There are a millions and millions of people using Apple iDevices.
    Just because everything went fine with the iOS 6 updates of your iPhone 4 and 5 doesn't mean something couldn't have gone wrong with an update to your iPad3
    If the iOS update missed something during the download, I am not sure how to go about re-downloading iOS 6 to fix the issue you are having.

    off. Make sure there are no alarms set for your
    calendar either.

  • I had to return my first Ipad2, and now the new won't connect to itunes.  I verified I had the latest itunes, used the new cable and verified the port worked by syncing with my ipod, I reloaded 10.2.2 and restarted my PC. Still won't work - thoughts?

    How do I activate Acrobat XPro- I've installed CS6 Premium on my computer and Acrobat does not work and says its not activated. It is listed on the programs on the computer but will not respond. How do I fix this?????? Help Adobe?????

    Hi t0m#2410,
    How did you install Acrobat, did you install it as a part of Suite installation.
    If it is a part of suite then deactivate suite uninstall Acrobat, Reinstall Acrobat using Suite media. Launch Photoshop first and Activate.
    Then try launch Acrobat.
