Is there a key on the MacBook Pro to toggle display options for a projector

I have had some difficulty getting my InFocus projector to consistently work correctly with my MacBook Pro. Is there a key on the MacBook Pro that toggles the options for projector display? There was one on my last MacBook and my previous PowerBook.
Thanks -
Dudley Warner

No, there is no longer a key to control external display modes (it's F7 on my 1st gen MBP, but the option was removed along with the embedded numeric keypad in the Early 2008 models). There's not a substitute keyboard shortcut (with the exception of installing a macro player like Keyboard Maestro). Your main option is System Preferences > Displays (as stated, ticking the box to show Displays in the menu bar provides a helpful shortcut).

The volume keys on my MacBook Pro stop working after using headphones.

The volume keys on my MacBook Pro recently stopped controling the volume after I've used headphones. I still have sound; I just can't make the volume increase or decrease. The mute, however, still works just fine. Because I have sound from the intenral speakers I know the computer doesn't think the headphones are still in the jack. A reboot fixes the problem, but as soon as I use headphones the problem starts up again. I want to fix this permanently.
I don't know if this helps but all the other keys (brightness, play/pause, etc) still work. I recently had to reset the PRAM because my computer refused to sleep when the lid was shut. I've checked system preferences and everything seems to be in order.
Can someone please help!?

I found this advice on another thread after encountering the same problem - I did the reboot and it worked fine and dandy!
I spoke with Applecare to fix my Macbook volume. Apparently there are pins inside the speaker/headphone jack that can get jammed. We fixed mine by doing some sort of reboot:
Turn off laptop.
Hold down the Option, Command, P, and R keys (all four at once, it's tricky!) and while holding down the four keys, turn on the computer. When you hear the second chime, release the four keys.
This re-set the sound toggle to internal speakers. Now I'm afraid to insert headphones again, but I assume this reboot will work over and over.

Is there a way one can safely remove the keys on a macbook pro lap top and clean under them without causing damage? Or is it best to just take it in for that.... say if one spilled a small amount of maple syrup? Help please.

Is there a way to remove, clean, and safely re-affix the keys on a macbook pro without causing damage.... or is it best to let the Pro's do it?

i would let the pros do it. ive dismantled my mbp before and its a pain with all the little parts. you basically have to remove everything from the bottom up (logic board, ram, all cables, cd drive) to get to the keyboard.
how much junk you got under those keys? the space between the metal and keys are small, unlike a pc laptop (though most pc laptops have easier keyboards to remove) .

Don't use any cleaning spray. Wipe with a moist but not wet microfiber cloth.

I need a new Delete key for my MacBook Pro

My daughter ripped my delete key off my MacBook Pro and I need a new one. Anyone know where to get one from and how much they would be? Thanks!

Do a Google search or call an Apple store or an AASP. Ask them about the cost.

Did Apple changed the Expose & Dashboard keys in the MacBook Pro?

The new MacBook Air came with two new keys, mission control and launchpad. Did Apple changed the keys in the MacBook Pro they are selling or are they selling them with no change, because since now the dashboard is in a different place the key is useless.

No they did not, but I fell like they should replace the icons on F3 and F4 since they are so much easier to get to using gestures.

Question using numpad key commands on MacBook Pro

Hi, I'm using a MacBook Pro which does not contain the imbeded numpad. I am always using these key within Logic. Does anyone know a workaround for this or would I have to remapped certain keys? Many thanks.
Ed

Previous Mac laptops had the numpad inbedded in the keyboard, but now it is no longer there. I'm trying to find out if there is a way to map these keys on a MacBook Pro, and if so which keys there are. In Logic, the numpad is a very important feature for me. Thank you for any help on this...

Does anybody have any solution for a non-functioning key on a macbook pro

Product Name: Macbook Pro 13", 5,5, Mid 2009
OSX: 10.6.8
Description of problem: The right arrow key will not work or function.
Other details: At startup, when a button either the Apple, Finder, File, etc are pressed the highlighter moves to the right and repeats moving to the right as if the right arrow key is stuck. When another key (any) is pressed it stops and all other keys function properly. The right arrow key will not work.
Steps I have tried to resolve the issue. Rebooting, SMC reset, removing key tab and cleaning.
Any ideas????

Hi JamilMereck,
first of: you can edit previous posts in a time-frame of some minutes (haven't measured it ...).
After that they become non-editable.
I admit I have used microphones some years back with and without PCs (have switched to Macs 2.5 years ago).
But I always had the mics connected to a mixing desk, which provided Phantom Power.
Since I gave up my 'Singing Career' (wasn't good enough) I also abandoned the use of microphones.
To your questions:
It might be that PCs with specified Microphone-In ports are also providing power to them or the microphones themselves do not need any power.
And the 'compatible with...' refers to the usage on computers in general.
The iMic from Griffin works with OSX 10.5 (scroll down on the webpage to 'Product Compatibility' the left icon symbolizes OSX 10.5).
As said above, I am no longer up-to-date in usage of microphones, but when you want to use a microphone with the standard connector you have to get either a microphone preamp or a mixer.
If you use the mic only (really only) with your Mac Pro, you might wanna look for USB-connected mics from Samson or Audio Technica for example.
And don't get upset, I understand you fully and any kind of 'insult' is for the manufacturers and not for me

My command key on my macbook pro retina 2014 is sinking

So I have recently bought a Macbook pro retina 13 inch 2014 model.
I have been using it a lot lately especially for typing and using the command key. I notice that my left command key is sinking or in other words, the left command key is much lower or deeper than other keys if it is not pressed.
Is this normal? I am afraid if I keep using this left command key it will be a problem in the future.
Thanks.

Sorry for bumping this OLD thread. But I am having the same problem. How did you guys exactly resolve it? What did Apple do when u went to the store? (Assuming you did)
Thanks.
