Remapping shortcut keys to macbook pro keyboard

i want to remap my up arrow to prev edit and down arrow to next edit similar to FCP7 shortcut, however, when i edit the CS5.5. default shortcut key layout nothing seems to change on the macbookpro? I could use the FCP7 layout but i want to try and learn the CS5.5 shortcut keys. There is not Page up or Page down equivalent on the Mac keyboard. I've discovered that fn+left arrow=sequence start and fn+right arrow=sequence end. I am wondering if someone has uncovered this holy grail or could give me some pointers.

Try Fn+Up Arrow and Fn+Down Arrow.

Disable F-keys on Macbook Pro keyboard?

Hey,
As I sometimes use my Macbook Pro for work (programming that is), I sometimes need the F-keys for shortcuts the programs I use. (For instance, IDEA).
Is there some way to disable - temporarily - the OS X shortcuts on the F-keys so other programs can use them?
Thanks in advance!

Use the checkbox in the "Keyboard" tab of "Keyboard" system preference.

The Insert Key in Macbook Pro (Middle 2009)

Hello,
I'm looking for the Insert Key in the Macbook Pro.
I found that : http://www.hjaltilava.info/2009/07/01/insert-key-on-macbook-pro-keyboard/
I tried it, but it didn't work.
This key is necessary in a simulator like FlightGear.
Someone have idea ?
Thanks !

SnqKe, there is no Insert key to find for the Mid 2009 MacBook Pro.
Software such as [KeyRemap4MacBook|http://pqrs.org/macosx/keyremap4macbook> can allow the emulation of keys not on the keyboard. If it doesn’t already have an option to emulate an Insert key, the author of KeyRemap4MacBook is quite willing to add new options to the software — he has added a few on my request.
For FlightGear in particular, it comes with its own key binding files, so even without any key remapping software installed, you could modify FlightGear’s data/input/keyboard.xml file to change the key of the script that is normally bound to the Insert key.

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows). The key behaves the same for the laptop keyboard and for an external Apple keyboard? This just started in last week after 6 months of use

My left shift key on Macbook Pro Retina (15") is behaving like the F11 key (show/hide open windows).
The left shift key behaves the same on the laptop keyboard and on an external Apple keyboard.
This just started in last week after 6 months of use. The right shift key and other keys on the keyboard all appear to work correctly.
Suggestions greatly appreciated.

I have a solution to this issue now after a discussion with Apple Support. Some where in the last few weeks, there was a change in the key that would do a Show Desktop under the Mission Control settings in the System Preferences. Even though the key sequence that was shown for the Show Desktop setting did not include the Left SHift key, by changing this first to having no key sequence and applying that and then changing it back to the F11 key, the Left SHift key issue that I was having has cleared up.
A second issue that was uncovered was that the SSD had some issues (uncovered when I ran Disk Utility using the Repair Disk key). I had to restart and use the Disk Utility through the Command R sequence to get to the stand alone Disk Utility. The SSD appears to be running better as a result as well.
Hope that this is of use to someone else in the future.

If you are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare, call them. Let them deal w/it. Out of warranty, your keyboard may need cleaning. Use a vacuum hose or a can of compressed air to get the dirt out from under the keys. For instructions to remove the keys if it comes to that check out the following websites:
iFixit
TakeItApart
Search YouTube for Macbook Pro “How To” tutorials.
If you do not want to DIY, take your MBP to your local AS or an AASP.

Macbook Pro Keyboard and Trackpad Not Working

few days ago, my Macbook Pro keyboard and trackpad started to act very oddly.
Basically, the keyboard doesn't work at all. I press down the keys, and all I get is that error message sound. The volume and display brightness keys seem to work, but almost all of the others just won't type anything. it-s like any key command or alt would stay pressed so when i click any key its trying to perform other function instead of just typing the letter. that-s probably the reason why the trackpad is also being very odd. When I first turn on the laptop, it seems to work as normal. I can click on an application, and it opens. But about one minute after the laptop first starts, it's like anywhere I click on the trackpad is a right-click. To open an application, I click like I normally would but instead of opening, a menu pops up as if I right-clicked. This happens in Finder and everywhere else that I've tested (for instance, I can't drag any Finder windows to different positions on the screen, because it acts as if I right-clicked instead of left-clicked), no matter whether I tap or click the trackpad.
I have reset my permissions, but that didn't fix anything. I verified the hard drive and it said there were no problems. A big issue is that I can't do anything that requires me to type in my password, since I can't type anything. I tried to reset the PRAM, but I don't think that it even registered me pressing the Command-Option-P-R keys when I booted up, so i just removed the battery for a while, i am not sure that did anything at all.
i tried to reinstall the os, i had mavericks and i installed a fresh mountain lion but the problem persists. i recently installed virtualbox and the keyboard seems to work right as long as i do not press any of the following keys command, alt, shift, etc.. if i press any of them same thing happens. i found that if i connect a usb keyboard everything works, but when i use the inbuilt keyboard the problem is back and a i have to connect disconnect the usb keyboard to be able to type or use the trackpad normally.
any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

My return key on Macbook pro doesn't work

My return key on Macbook Pro stopped working, also the shift key

Hello there,
It sounds like the return key is not working on your computers built in keyboard. I would use these steps from the following article to help isolate and resolve the issue:
Try logging into a different user account. If the issue does not occur when logged into a different user account, then troubleshoot for software issues.
You may have accidentally set an option that changes how your keyboard operates.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Dictation & Speech, and then click “Text to Speech.” If “Speak selected text when the key is pressed” is selected, deselect it or press Set Key to select another key.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click Keyboard. Make sure Slow Keys is turned off. If Slow Keys is on, you must hold down a key longer than usual before it’s recognized.
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Language & Text, and then click Input Sources. Select the checkbox next to Keyboard & Character Viewer, and then select “Show Input menu in menu bar.” Open the Input menu and make sure the correct keyboard layout is selected. To see the keyboard layout, choose Show Keyboard Viewer from the Input menu.

Typing shortcuts on a MacBook Pro?

Can you create typing shortcuts on a MacBook Pro, Late 2011? What I mean is, if I type "hitw", can I teach my computer to type "How is the weather?", like I can on my iphone/ipad?
Thank you!!

Use Siri for simple queries like "How is the weather/" - it will save you time, and the information will be more complete.
Okay, now the question you wanted to get answered. Read this link for a the procedure you want:

How to type vertical line on macbook pro keyboards?

Please tell me how to type vertical line on macbook pro keyboards?

(1) It sounds like you might be using a Spanish keyboard. You should specify this to begin with. Unless you do, the default assumption is that you're using a US keyboard. The advice you received is correct for the US keyboard.
(2) To see how to enter any character available with your current keyboard, enable Keyboard Viewer, as described here
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mh35878.html>
(3) There is no "alt" key on a Mac keyboard. You are talking about the Option (⌥) key. See (search for "Alt key" in)
What's it called on my Mac?

(4) My advice is move on from Fraise. AFAIK, it's dead. Try TextWrangler, which is free and more capable.

Some coffee got spilled on my MacBook Pro keyboard

Some coffee got spilled onto the keyboard of my MacBook Pro keyboard (it's the newest model), when it happened I turned it off immediately and quickly turned it over to have it drip out of the keys. I blow-dryed the keys with cool air and let it sit upside down for almost five hours. I went to turn it on and it started working fine. Is there a possibility that my laptop got liquid damage if it's turning on fine? Should I take it into an Apple Store to double check? There isn't one near me so I'm trying to avoid a trip if I can.

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service ASAP. You are not qualified to handle liquid spills on a computer.

Only part of my macbook pro keyboard backlight works

only part of my macbook pro keyboard backlight works , all settings and f6/7 keys work ok but only a triangle in the centre lights up, so the rest of the keyboard is dark.
Pleqase someone shed some light.
Bought in May 2012

It is likely a hardware defect. If you bought it in May of 2012, it is still under warranty. Take it back to the store or mail it in to be fixed.

My MacBook Pro keyboard doesn't work to log in, but lets me type if I'm logged in as a guest. What do I do?

My MacBook Pro keyboard doesn't work to log in, but lets me type if I'm logged in as a guest. What do I do?

OK, some more info.
I have re-installed os/x and applied all of the updates.
I have tried to migrate my existing accounts and the problem consistently manifests as below:
1. In a new user account, I can log in and use the keyboard then logout
2. If I log in to the migrated user account, the non-numeric keys on the keyboard do not work. If I then log out, and try to log in to another account on the same machine, the non-numeric keys continue not to work.
This would seem to suggest that as the profiles being migrated are on a machine with the same version of up to date OS/X, the issue lies with either the Macbook Pro (other people have also had keyboard problems) or with the migration assistant not working properly given that the current profiles work fine on another mac.
Any more ideas anyone?

Macbook Pro keyboard not functioning upon waking.

Hello Apple Discussion Community,
Since installing Yosemite, I have been running into an extremely annoying issue that I hope will be addressed in a future update. So far, I have searched Google and the Apple discussion forums for someone else experiencing this problem, but have had no luck.
I do not know how to recreate the bug, as it occurs randomly. Sometimes, after my computer goes into a brief sleep (monitor turns black) or a deep sleep (monitor turns black, external hard drives power down), the Macbook Pro keyboard will not function at all upon waking. No matter what key I hit, it will not respond -- as if it is not plugged in, despite being a component of the laptop.
I have read about people experiencing issues with Wireless/Bluetooth keyboards, but so far not with the physical laptop keyboard.
If it does not function right after a deep sleep, when I have to enter a password to log into my account, I must log into the guest account and use the virtual keyboard to enter in my username and password so I can restart the computer. After a restart, it functions properly.
Has anyone else experienced this bug? Does Apple know about this issue and can I expect it to be patched in the future? Is there any advice someone can give me to prevent this from occurring anymore? Do I have to re-wipe my computer and complete another fresh install of OS X Yosemite?
I'd appreciate any advice or information!
Thanks,
Dylan

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.
