Qwerty instead of Azerty before loggin in

Hi everyone,
I have a mac mini and an AZERTY keyboard, when i start my Mac mini and i type my password to access my user account my keyboard seems to be set on QWERTY (which is annoying to type my password correctly) and then once I'm logged into my account my keyboard works as normal (azerty).
I bought my mac mini in the UK and the azerty keyboard on the apple store website, my mac is configured in french and so is my keyboard.
Is there a reason why my keyboard behaves that way ??? and what is the solution to fix this little issue ?
thank you for your answers.

  • If we buy a refurbished MBP with qwerty can apple change it to azerty before sending us the computer?

    If we buy a refurbished MBP with qwerty can apple change it into azerty before sending us the computer? Because I'm going to buy one (online) when I will be in the US.
    Thanks!

    Refurbished MBPs are as presented.  No changes can/will be made.

  • Pressing forward slash (deselect active photo) instead of backslash (before and after edits)

    In the Develop module, when editing, I sometimes make the mistake of pressing the wrong slash key and end up with the message No Photo Selected instead of the 'before' view that I wanted. If I have similar pictures, I find it hard to recover from this - when I go back to the Library module to try to track down my picture, it's been deselected, of course.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance - Helen

    As soon as you realize you have pressed the wrong key you can press Cmd/Cntrl + Z.
    This will undo what you just did, which is press the wrong key.

  • Using a QWERTY and an AZERTY keyboard at the same time

    Hello.
    Is it possible to use a QWERTY keyboard and an AZERTY one without having to change the layout in the settings each time I want to type with the other keyboard?
    Thanks.

    Actually I'm using this solution right now bit I'd like that when I type on the QWERTY keyboard, the Mac uses automatically the right layout and then, when I type with the AZERTY keyboard, it switches automatically to the other layout.
    Maybe there is an app for that? :-)

  • Physical keyboard is qwerty on an azerty asus transformer, only in firefox

    on an azerty asus transformer (Belgian model), the physical keyboard behaves in firefox as a qwerty keyboard regardless of the locale.
    This only happens on firefox, and the virtual keyboard behaves normally.
    Is there something that I should configure ?
    Thanks,
    Rémi

    Hey Rémi
    Thanks for reporting this. There is currently an [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=669361 open bug] investigating this issue. I'm not sure if there's a workaround at the moment. It would be best to follow activity in the bug report if one is posted.
    Thanks,

  • Run script before loggin starts

    Hi everyone
    I'm using a tmpfs for my /var/log folder, and because I don't want to loose all logs I have modified /etc/rc.local.shutdown following this thread so everything gets backed up each time in a different folder named after the time at which I shutdown.
    https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 10#p528010
    But I'd prefer to have a XYZ folder with all logs which gets loaded to my tmpfs /var/log, so everything works like normal, and finally before shutdown, everything is copied back to folder XYZ. This way my HDD is only accessed for loggin matters at startup and shutdown. So far it's not difficult, except I want to run my script which does just that, before any loggin starts.
    How can I execute commands or run a script while booting just between my tmpfs is mounted (declraed in /etc/inittab) and loggin starts? If possible including the minilogger at arch boot
    Thanks very much in advance

    Here we are again
    I'm trying it now the way you suggest. I've written two simple scripts (my first ones ) which do as following:
    [ LOGs => RAM ]
    I call to this script in /etc/rc.local. It saves all logs in ram and then links the so that they appear again in /var/log
    note: my /tmp folder is a tmpfs
    #!/bin/bash
    #/usr/bin/log-ram.sh
    # Create /tmp/log: necessary for each boot because /tmp is volatile
    # Copy /var/log to tmp/log: copy my complete logs to ram
    # Rename /var/log to /var/log.backup: so I have a backup of them
    # Create a new empty /var/log
    #Link /var/log to /tmp/log: all logs (located in ram) appear in /var/log
    echo "Copiando LOGs de HDD a RAM"
    mkdir /tmp/log
    cp -Rp /var/log/* /tmp/log/
    mv /var/log /var/log.backup
    mkdir /var/log
    ln -sf /tmp/log/* /var/log/
    Questions:
    -Do you recommend calling this script latter or is it here ok (/etc/rc.local)? If it would be latter, where do you reccomend it? As you already noted, it has to be excecuted as root
    [ LOGs => HDD ]home sweet home)
    I call this script in /etc/rc.local.shutdown
    All logs get copied back to /var/log and also a backup is made. Note that each time this script is ececuted a new backup is generated. That menas that for now I have to manually erase them when they get to many. Later (when I learn a bit more of scripting) I'll make the oldest get automatically erased.
    #!/bin/bash
    #/usr/bin/log-unram.sh
    #Refresh the content of /var/backup so it's up to date
    #Remove /var/log: so all symbolic links get erased
    #Recreate /var/log: is there a faster way to do this and the last step?
    #Copy from /tmp to /var: from RAM to HDD
    #Rename and change directory of /var/log.backup with an unique identifier (time at which script is run).
    echo "Copiando LOGs de RAM a HDD"
    now=`date +"%Y%m%d_%Hh%M"`
    cp -Rp /tmp/log/* /var/log.backup/
    rm -r /var/log
    mkdir /var/log
    mv /tmp/log /var/log
    mv /var/log.backup /var/log.old/$now/
    Questions:
    Is there a faster way to erase al symbolic links
    As said, this are my two first attempts to writte a bash script (excetp the hello world one lol). So I probably did a lot wrong.
    For now it seems to work (when calling them from shell) but I still didnt tried them with real powerup & shutdown. (Ill do it after posting this).
    Thanks in advance
    EDIT:
    These scripts are give me problems. I'm trying to make now a syngle script which copies from HDD -> RAM or RAM -> HDD depending on if logs are already loaded or  not. This way If my system crashes I dont have problems while booting (like the firefox-sync script).
    As soon as I have something, I'll post it here

  • In ical, why doesn't the alarms show after the time instead of just before

    In iCal, for ALL my laptop and desktop computers, you are able to get an alert message before and after an event. I would like to also have AFTER the event on my iPhone, BUT there is NO AFTER option..........am I missing something?

    Change
    contentPane.add(textArea); // add the thing into the frameto
    contentPane.add(scrollPane)and it should appear
    Looking at your code you set the GridBagLayout manager to the ContentPane. You add the text area to the scrollpane and then try and specify the constraint of the textarea on the content pane, but its in the scrollpane. So you may want to change that too
    Note that:
    import java.io.*;
    will import any classes required in the * directory meaning that you don't need the following line.
    import java.io.IOException;
    The same goes for
    java.awt.*;
    java.awt.event.*;
    The java.lang package is imported as standard so you don't need to declare and import of this.

  • Qwerty instead of qwertz

    Hello Folks,
    after updating to 10.4 I have a wrong keyboard layout in my classic environment using 9.22 (German). I have trashed all possible prefs files including the "Classic-Prefs" and keyboard prefs - with no success. This must be a problem of the classic environment since everything works fine when I boot with OS 9.2.
    Does anyone have a good idea about this?
    Stefan
      Mac OS X (10.4.2)  

    Stefan, I don't know too much about that, but since no-one else jumped in before…
    Please list "all possible prefs files including the "Classic-Prefs" and keyboard prefs"
    Which elements are actually set to German? Just the 9 keyboard, both 9 and X systems, fonts, what?
    Is this an Apple German keyboard layout, or who else's?
    Classic can't switch to another language setting because OS 9 is not multi-lingual. You could install a System Folder in any one language, or separate System Folders in different languages and choose among them from Classic System Preference, but 9 and therefore Classic can't switch once it's running…
    When it looks like "German" is selected does that really mean fonts look German, or is the menubar wording actually in German, or something else?

  • Known freshly set firmware password, not being accepted on new MBP with retina. Locked out of bootmenu.

    Hello,
    I have a MBP 15" with retina display and 16GB of RAM.
    I bought it end August/early september and it has worked great so far, really happy with it.
    After encountering some people that have had theirs stolen, i figured it was a good idea to enter a firmware password so that people can't use external drives to boot up from.
    I just rebooted holding the alt key, clicked utilities -> firmware password and I set myself a password. It is one word, starts with a capital letter and has 2 numbers incorporated in it.
    I then immediately rebooted and held alt again to test it. I enter the exact same password (100% sure) and for some reason it just deletes the entered password when i click enter/the ok arrow and it does nothing.......
    Please tell me this is a known MAC problem, I am 100% sure i'm not going mad, but this kind of problem is annoying me! I have a dualboot windows 7 partition that I would like to continue to use without working virtually from within MAC OS X.
    Thanks, any ideas appreciated!
    Best regards,
    Nick

    Sigh i found it ....
    Apple you could have mentioned that you enter it as QWERTY instead of AZERTY -_- My letters were coincidently all the same, however the numbers need shift pressed in the latter which they don't in the former.
    Oh well, Back to enjoying my wonderful machine now
    Bye and sorry for the unnecessary read! Hope it helps some with the same problem.

  • IP-settings and keymap for guest

    Hi,
    I have a few questions about the configuration of a guest.
    1: How should I set the IP-settings for the virtual NIC?
    I used a free IP on my network, as the gateway I used the same gateway as the server and as the netmask ofcourse also the same netmask as the server. I can ping to other computers on my network, so it's working fine. But I can't surf on the Internet with the guest. Do I have to change the nameserver?
    2: How can I change the keymap that is used on the guest?
    During the installation of OEL5U1 I chose to work with the keymap: be-latin1. When I open the file /etc/sysconfig/keyboard, I can verify that this is the keymap being used on the guest. But still, when I type, it's still qwerty instead of azerty and I can't find several characters. Is it possible I have to change the keyboard layout on the OVM Console, on the plugin?
    Thanks!

    1: How should I set the IP-settings for the virtual NIC?
    you may surf on internet using ip address directly? and do you need set http proxy in your environment?
    2: How can I change the keymap that is used on the guest?
    If you are using a keyboard with a layout other than US, the key mappings may not work properly in guest OS on the graphical console. (note:466564.1 Keyboard Mappings Does not Work Properly for Guest OS)

  • Keyboard changed from azerty to qwerty

    I had my Nokia Asha 200 flashed since it started giving problem of conflicting apps: nokia xpress.
    Now its using qwerty keyboard instead of azerty. I have problems getting other letters and symbols since A gives Q, Q gives A, W gives Z, Z gives W, trying to type and gives qnd.
    Help please, its from bad to worse
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The question is whether your Asha 200 has reverted to version of software dictated by seven character alphanumeric product code starting with "0" upon label unber battery or whether incorrect software has been installed upon device by using inappropriate software.
    What I am trying to say is if this Asha 200 was pre-owned before you got it, all may not be what it seems and qwerty keyboard may have been swapped to azerty with appropriate software at some point for resale. When you re-install device software via Nokia Suite it has reverted to it's original "Qwerty" product code.

  • HT5633 Apple TV Bluetooth Keyboard Layout

    Hi,
    how can we change the keyboard layout.
    It doesn't recognize the AZERTY layout and use QWERTY instead...
    Cheers

    Only English QWERTY is supported.
    "Apple TV uses the U.S. English keyboard layout regardless of the keyboard's hardware layout."
    I had some friends that ran into this. Probably best to submit feedback at http://www.apple.com/feedback/.

  • Logout session

    I have a filter to control the session of my application.when the user logs in he will be able to access all the jsp pages .
    Problem--- Even after user logs out , he is able to directly access the jsp pages , by typing the url .(but before loggin in he would be redirected to login page if
    he tries to access any jsp page directly)
    What should I do to avoid this problem , (ie when the user hits the "logout" he should not be able to directly access the jsp pages any more , he needs to be redirected again to login page.)

    ganeshpuppala wrote:
    I am actually just using a logout link Probably not a good idea. You should have a logout servlet that directs you to a "goodbye" page, which could be the login page, but it should be a different URL.
    , (its a href tht redirects the page to the login.jsp ) , I cannot invalidate the session here.(ie I cannot create a seperate jsp page for the logout -- how do I I invalidate the sesion here?)
    So when the user hits this logout link he is redirected to the login page.
    But after tht when he enters the url directly he is able to directly access the pages.
    I'd say that the user should request a page inside the site and get the login page instead.
    Is this really just a browser cacheing problem?That always serves to confuse the issue.
    In general all dynamic pages should be returned with cache supression headers (you could add these headers in your filter).
    These include pragma: no-cache cache-control: no-cache, expires <ancient date>
