New keyboard layout

Hello everybody!
Does anyone know if there will be Bulgarian in the kb layout soon?
Regards.
Blackberry! Here, now, forever!

I have tried this
- deactivate the F8 SPACES shortcut.
- create a new shortcut for App Itunes F8 "Play".
also later added
- create a new shortcut for App Itunes F8 "Pause".
No result, does not work except that Spaces is no longer activated with F8.
Did I miss something? Do I need to restart the computer?

Hit PrtSc on new keyboard layout and lost clipboard data?

The new keyboard layout place the PrtSc button at the bottom row of the keyboard between left Alt anc Ctrl.
I think some of you might have already tried that, when you try to press the right Ctrl or Alt (for example try to press Ctrl+V... etc) or even just accidentally hit the PrtSc key, and then the text that you copied will be cleared in the clipboard so you need to go back and copy again.
Even worse: You can't recover if you cut and closed the application, then hit PrtSc and let the clipboard to be overwritten!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There are two ways to deal with the problem: (1) bypass Windows print sceren functionality or (2) install a clipboard manager.
To bypass Windows print sceren functionality you can install a program. An opensource example is Lightscreen. You can configure it to directly save the print screen into your document directory instead of overwriting the clipboard. There is an extra benefit, that you don't need to do print screen, then open Paint, then paste, then save the image just to upload or save it.
An opensource example of clipboard manager is Ditto. It tracks changes in the clipboard and save a history of everything. In case if the PrtSc key overwritten the clipboard, most of the time you will be able to recover.

We need new keyboard layout in Korea.

Hi~
We need new keyboard layout in Korea.
The Google offers new keyboard layout for the Korean language.
It is called 'single vowel keyboard'
It has 4 less keys. So one key size can be wider than that of qwerty keyboard.
It is much easier to type and creates much less mistyping.
I hope apple would offer the same keyboard layout.
Sincerely,

Here is the image file of new keyboard layout.
I hope it will help.

Creating new keyboard layout

My last Mac model was 7500 (long time ago) with Mac OS 7.x. Since then I used PC with Windows OS, and now I am back to the game again. Mac OS is changed significantly since then, so I have to start from begining.
Now, because Macedonian keyboard has not the same layout as in Win OS I would like to redefine it, or to create a new one. I could do it then (with some tricks that I forgot) but not now. Can anybody help me to do it, please?

you can use Ukelele to create a custom keyboard layout

Does anyone know how to make an icon for a new keyboard layout?

I have added a couple of keyboard layouts to my input sources and would dearly provide them with distinctive icons, but all icon makers I find on the net seem to cater to PCs only.

Going to the App Store, there is a link for support. That takes me to a facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Friendly-for-Netflix/
Which when I lookup the info, takes me to:
http://www.oecoway.com/
Since there are no support links on the latter link, I would just message the owner of the Facebook page and tell them of your troubles. If they are non-responsive, you may want to just as the App Store reverse the charge, with the feedback that the developer is non-responsive to user questions. If it is functional for the $5 you paid, just keep it, and hope for an update you can use.

New keyboard layout appeared after update - how to remove it?

Hello community,
I'm using two keyboard layouts RU and DE and switching them with Ctrl+Shift. After a recent update a third keyboard layout appeared - US. I checked /etc/X11/xorg.conf, /etc/hal/fdi/policy/10-keymap.fdi and /etc/rc.conf but in all of them there is no US layout. Setting everything there up for the DE and RU layout didn't help, still the US layout is in the layouts list in Gnome. If I remove it from that list, it appears after the next reboot. So how can I go rid of it?
Here are the config files:

Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"

Thanks, PhotonX

Thanks for your input, guys, I think, this issue has been already reported (quite a long time ago) which is even the top entry of the most wanted tasks: http://bugs.archlinux.org/toplevel/proj1 So the only thing we can do is to follow the comments and to hope for a fix.

Custom Keyboard Layout

Tried to create a couple of custom keyboard commands via tools> custom keyboard layout. FCS2 seems to completely ignore the two changes that I made (I did unlock and lock during the process)
Is there a step I’m omitting?
m

I think what you have to do is save your changes into a new keyboard layout - and do it before you close the layout window. Then load the layout and you should be good to go. I did a quick test and that seemed to be how it worked.
Hope that helps.

Unwanted switch of keyboard layouts

I have created a new keyboard layout file for german Dvorak typing. The .keylayout file was placed in the keyboard layouts folder and after that I enabled the new layout within the system preferences.
So far everything works fine. In some applications my layout switches back to the last system keyboardlayout without any coment or warning. It happens also, when passwords are needed. In Ical I can edit an event completely in Dvorak until i hit the date an time fields. Then the layout switches to the last System Layout, that was selected before.
I tried to move the layout into the system keyboard layouts folder, but with no effect. The packages that come with OS X contain also a variety of different layouts (.keylayout files). When I try to use a "original" .keylayout file ( like US extended.keylayout) the effect persists. I have no idea how to resolve this problem, as the original apple files also fail to work properly.
I will try another user profile as a last test.
Any Ideas?
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.7)

If I select from the mathematic symbols, no
character will be typed by the keylayout generated by
Ukelele.
That's because the mathematical symbols range cannot be handled in a Roman layout, only in a Unicode layout. In a Roman layout you must use the ascii versions. I would try using a Roman custom layout that you have not had to change via BBEdit and see if you have the same problem. Adding non-Roman characters to a layout which is supposed to be Roman could cause problems. Also make sure you give the layout a keyboard ID which is unlikely to be used by any other layout.
Is there some reason you cannot use the ascii ><? These are what are normally used rather than the special Unicode versions.
<div class="jive-quote">The characters generated are different from the ones created by the original German Layout.
Could you explain that in more detail?

Swiss keyboard-layout only french version! Need german version (ö,ä,ü)

Hi folks,
I use a swiss keyboard on my Mac under Bootcamp. Problem, there are two different
layouts here in Switzerland for the same kayboard. One is in french, one is german.
Bootcamp seems to support both of them, but its not true. Both keyboard layouts
are similar. Either layout: "Deutsch > Schweiz (Apple)" or "Französich > Schweiz (Apple)
in both layouts, the key é, è, à still are é, è and à instad of changing to ö, ü, ä.
This is really bad... the programmer should come visit switzerland, and see why this works like that!
what can I do?
kind regards.

Hi Xenitra
I had the exact same problem when using Parallels Desktop. I resolved the problem by downloading and installing "Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4" as source I chose " existing keyboard -> Schweiz(Apple) and did the necessary modifications for ä.ö,ü resp. é,à,è and saved and verified the new keyboard layout.
Then I selected build which created the application to install the new keyboard layout in the system.
Finally I chose my new layout, et voilà ;-) Should work also with bootcamp.

Exchange a brand new computer because of the keyboard layout ?

Hi !
I'm currently in Finland for work, and I bought a Macbook Air, it's brand new so.
But I didn't thought of the keyboard layout, which is of course Finnish;
Do you think I can exchange this MBA with a one with the correct layout back in my country;
Or is it better to return this MBA here, and buy a new one once I'm home ?
I'd like to be able to return or exchange the MBA in my country, is the refund/exchange policy international ?
Thanks

The European law state you have anyway a 7 day open box return policy for this kind of product, I think I'll go to the store and ask if they can exchange it for one with international/US keyboard or give me a refund if they havn't got one.
I got a callback appointement with Apple Support France tomorrow (my country) to ask them if it's possible to use the warranty to exchange layout. But as you said, I don't think it's possible since the keyboard is working perfectly fine..

Buy new MacBook in Paris (with English keyboard layout)

I want to buy new Macbook in Paris with US keyboard layout not French one. Since there are no official Mac Store in France how can I do that ?
Oh one more thing. I also want to laser Russian alphabet on buttons in Paris. Is it possible to do that ?

http://store.apple.com/fr - this is a reseller.
No, it's not, not if you mean an independently-owned company apart from Apple. It's the official Apple Store, owned by Apple. When you order from that Apple Store, you're ordering directly from Apple.
why don't they writу full number with France code - as far as I know it is 33. so it is 33 0800 046 046
Probably because they assume that anyone ordering from the French Apple Store is in France and so doesn't need the country code. Why you can't get through to that number from another country, as I presume you're attempting, I can't say.
Well the information I have from Russian reseller is that they order them from US or UK they do not laser buttons in Russia.
Again, what Apple can and will do for a distributor/dealer is different from what they can do for an individual purchaser. Apple computers sold in a given country are usually only sold with a keyboard applicable to that country. Getting a different keyboard is often just not possible as may well be the case for you.
A workaround might be to get a MacBook with a keyboard from another language and get a set of Russian keyboard overlay stickers. Another possibility would be to purchase an external USB keyboard with Russian keys. Neither option would be an elegant solution but it might be worth it if you can save as much as you say by buying in France. Again, though, note that Apple France will not ship a system to you in Russia (or any other country); you'd have to go to France to get it.

Bug report: A keyboard layout is incorrect on the remote with Japanese keyboard

This is a bug report for Microst Remote Desktop
===================================================
## Summary
A keyboard layout is incorrect on the remote with Japanese keyboard
## Version Information, I tested
* Client
   * Case 1
       * MacBook Pro with JIS106 Keyboard
       * Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
       * Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.0.24308
   * Case 2
       * MacBook Pro with JIS106 Keyboard
       * Mac OS X Mavericks 10.9.1
       * Microsoft Remote Desktop 8.0.24308
* Remote
   * Case 1
       * Windows 7 Professional Japanese
   * Case 2
       * Windows Server 2008R2 Datacenter Japanese
   * Case 3
       * Windows Server 2012R2 Datacenter Japanese
## Detail of bug
When login from Mac OS X with Microsoft Remote Desktop, the keyboard layout is always incorrect on the remote.
The client machine have a built-in keyboard of JIS 106 layout,
and the primary language is set to Japanese.
But on the remote, the keyboard layout is US 101.
So a input of Shift+2 does not result " but @.
I've seen the above behavior on the 3 remote enviornments described the above.
This bug did not occcur with Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection Client for Mac 2.1.1, even if the system language is English and keyboard layout is Japanese.
## Captures
I've took some of screen captures.
I'm sorry for the capture includes Japanese words, so I added description in English.
Capture 1:
Mac OS X Keyboard Setting
Capture 2:
Windows Server 2012R2 Screen Keyboard
Capture 3:
Windows Server 2012R2 Screen Keyboard, with a additional registry key configured.

This bug also affects the Canadian English settings. If the client is set to Canadian English with a US keyboard the remote server is setup using a Canadian French keyboard. Using the language selection in the toolbar you can temporarily correct
the problem but the keyboard resets to french at the most inopportune times. The was a problem in the earlier RDP client and was fixed so it's sad to see it reoccur in the new client.

How can I get Final Cut 7 to remember my customized keyboard layout?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this community, my name is Flavio, from Argentina.
I'm on a Mac Book Pro Intel Core Duo 2, using Final Cut 7 and I'm using a customized keyboard layout (1 for zoom in, 2 for zoom out), but everytime I launch the application I have to go to Tools>Keyboard Layout to change it, is there a way to tel the ap to launch that layout almays?
Thanks!

It works for me without doing anything special. You might try deleting your fcp preferences
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2491
If that doesn't solve it, describe exactly what your doing to customize the keyboard.
I assume if you do a "save keyboard layout" from the tools menu: keyboard layout after customizing the keyboard and then load keyboard layout after relaunching fcp, that at least works.

Apple's new keyboard...

We have a new machine in today and the person who got it hates the new keyboard.
So far I kind of like it, but I'm concerned if it will be fully functional under Tiger (10.4.11).
The Eject key works, yet when I hit the volume key(F12) it triggers eject instead.
No help in System preferences. Is this an OS thing and I won't be able to use this new keyboard on Tiger?
Thanks for any suggestions.
-Vincent

If you are talking about the new flat Aluminum keyboard, I've been using it in Tiger since it came out. It is a dramatic improvement over the previous one...for me. The previous white Apple Keyboard was horrible.
But that's a personal thing. People who believe that the traditional IBM-type keyboard is the ultimate will have a natural and maybe unfair hatred of anything else. But over the years I have been typing more and more on the low, scissor-key laptop keyboards like the PowerBook/MacBook Pro, and now prefer that. And that's why I like the new, quiet low-profile keyboard so much.
As far as why the volume key ejects, have you checked the keyboard layout setting? It sounds like a case where it's using the keyboard mapping of a different language. If you see a country flag in the menu bar, make sure it's the right country. If there is no flag in the menu bar, go into International preferences and check Languages and Input Menu.

[Solved] Can't login with current keyboard layout and `@` in password

Hi, I'm a new arch user. I followed archwiki to install Enlightenment17. All went fine but I have a problem to login since during setup I inserted '@' in root/regular user passwords. During setup I selected the Italian layout and all seems ok, except grafical login through entrance (from aur, but I tested also kdm, with same results): password not recognized. Before asking, is not a CAPS/NUMLOCK issue since the password works using it in console login. I discovered that I can type '@' with the following combination: SHIFT+2; in an italian keybord this should print a double quote (") but in entrance (and kdm) it correponds to '@'. After login this way, the keyboard works normally (for instance using 'su'). So the problem is limited to graphical login (entrance and kdm) during which a different keyboard layout is used.
Did I miss some config file?
For the sake of clarity:
1) /etc/locale.gen has "it_IT.UTF-8 UTF-8" uncommented
2) /etc/locale.conf contains "LANG=it_IT.UTF-8"
3) /etc/vconsole.conf contains "KEYMAP=it"
4)
$ locale
LANG=it_IT.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="it_IT.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
Thanks for any help.

I exclude a variant problem considering that in any other condition the keyboard layout is right. The system is configured for an it KEYMAP but it is obvious that in entrance/kdm is used an 'us' map. Is this hardcoded somewhere? I also tryed to comment out any entry in /etc/locale.gen except 'it_IT.UTF-8 UTF-8': still 'us' keymap in graphical login screen.
Probably a kind user with a non-us keyborad layout could create a dummy user with password containing '@' or '#' or any other special symbol to verify that this condition is reproducible, a first step for a bug report.
Cheers
