Spanish keyboard repair in US

I reacently encountered a problem (water damadge) with my mac 13" keyboard, it was bought in spain, i was wondering if the Western replacement keyboards would fit this MBA since there seems to be not only a diference with the "ñ" key but also with the hardware itself, or so ive been told, my question would be if this is true, and if so what can i do to replace the keyboard to western? is it thtat complicated?
(and if anybody would have information on where to purchase a used Spanish top cover that would also be wonderful!)
Thanks!

These people sell replacement keyboards, you might ask them. The photo seems to be ANSI rather than ISO.

  • I am English but live in Spain, When I got my new Macbook Pro I set the language to English, so far so good. Then I stupidly set the keyboard to British when it is obviously a Spanish keyboard. How can I reset it to Spanish. Sorry cant find question mark

    LizMaddock,
    you can reset the input source to Spanish by selecting the Keyboard pane of System Preferences, selecting the Input Sources tab, and pressing the “+” button in the lower-left corner to select one of the Spanish input sources. The “Spanish – ISO” input source is most similar to the physical Spanish keyboard layout.

  • How do I switch through the English and Spanish keyboards on my ipod touch while I am typing instead of stopping and going into settings?

    I went into settings and added the Spanish keyboard on to my ipod touch. But here's the thing. If I have the keyboard in English, while I am typing I can't use any Spanish because it wants to correct all my words and turn them into English words, and this happens vice versa when typing in Spanish and it makes corrections in English. When I type I am constantly switching back and forth between Spanish and English. Is there any way to change the keyboard language while I am at the typing screen? For example on my Samsung Galaxy 4g, all I have to do when I want to switch languages is swipe my finger on the space bar key from left to right. That way I don't have to stop writing, go into the phone settings and find the language and switch it, slowing me down considerably because I would have to stop every few minutes.  Is there no way to do something like this on my ipod touch??

    Use the Globe key.  Hold it down and you will get a list, or just hit it to switch.
    The Globe key should appear if you have more than one keyboard chosen in settings.

  • I want to know if in New York apple stores have Macs with spanish keyboard

    I live in Spain and I will go to New York this summer, I want to buy a Macbook pro, and in new york are cheaper, my question is if in new york apple stores have computers with spanish keyboard, and if I can buy it at the moment.
    Thanks

    Yeah, but if I buy the mac in the US is legal, and I want to know if there is any way to ask or get a mac with Spanish keyboard to be sent to the store I go, or if they could send me the mac to the hotel where I resides if I buy it online

  • Characters typing as Spanish keyboard

    This is quite baffling...
    I just installed CS6, and trying to type &, instead shows /, etc. Then I figured it was typing as a Spanish keyboard setting, although all my pc settings (control panel, etc.) are English.
    Any ideas? Thanks for looking.

    If the keyboard is in the middle of the screen tap the tiny keyboard then slide your finger up to dock. If the screen isn't scrolling try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons 10-15 seconds till the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait 15-20 seconds till your iPad starts on it's own.

  • Tilde equivalent in spanish keyboard?

    Hi everyone, i working with perspective grid and i know that for dragging your artwork 90º from the active plane you need to press de tilde key while dragging. Now my spanish keyboard doesn´t have such a key, so: may i change the shortcut for this task anywhere into the customize keyboard shortcuts menu?.
    By the way in order to actually write the tilde character i can press "alt+ñ" in my spanish keyboard but this doesn´nt work while dragging in perspective mode...

    Anyway i find good idea mapping the sortcut to a tablet (or maybe vía
    an application such a QuickSilver or similar). I'll try it Next time i
    need to use the tilde key hardly in a project that requires isometric
    drawing.

  • Sending a text using the Spanish Keyboard

    When I send a message to some one in Spanish using the Spanish keyboard, they cannot read it because it shows as a bunch of squares and symbols. They are using an Envy touch to see my messages. Can some one help me? Is anyone having the same problem? Thank you!

    Hi I have only 2 days in USA to buy Mac Book Pro 13" with Retina display. The issue here is that I'd like to get the westerns spanish keyboard and at the apple store the guy said it will take 6 days. I was wondering if I do the purchase within the express checkout, Will I be able to get the laptop before leaving NY on the 7th of May 2014?
    I do not have any experience with the express checkout, actually I do know how it works, any advice please?
    Thanks!!!!

    Call the store on the telephne and ask. However, I doubt it since a store would not normally have an item with non-USA features
    Also, this is the Mac Pro desktop forum. I requested your post be moved to the MacBook Pro laptop forum

  • PS Elements 6 for Mac - Spanish keyboard shortcuts

    A colleague uses a Spanish (SORT) keyboard on his Mac and cannot work out how to expand and contract the brush in PS ELements 6 (normally "[" and "]" on a US/UK keyboard, but a complete mystery on a Spanish one).
    Is there a resource which shows exactly where PSE keyboard shortcuts are on various international keyboards?
    PSE6 - Mac - Spanish keyboard.

    Thanks, Barbara. I couldn't find it in your book (which I treasure), but I will pass that on to my amigo. He'll have to chop to the English keyboard for when he wants to work in PSE. I think that should be easy enough. Thanks again, Geoff

  • Shortcut in Spanish Keyboard

    Hi all, does anyone know how to increase/decrease size of adjustment brush in a Spanish keyboard?
    I know the short cut is ] / [ but in a Spanish keyboard to write down does symbols you have to press alt++ and alt+` and that doesn't work as increase/decrease brush size in LR2.
    I forgot to say i use MacOS X

    why this keyboard shortcut is not customizable
    Good question – and an old one for users with non-english keyboards.
    I think there was a thread in the old Feature Request Forum, but you may want to check
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/products/photoshop_family_photoshop
    if there is a current one that you could add your support to or start a new one.
    Instead of an Action a Script should also work, but as I use a non-english keyboard, too, I can’t record the ScriptListener-code and performing the task via the Document Object Model might take noticably longer with documents that have very many layers.

  • Change to spanish keyboard. Possible?

    I'm thinking about getting one of those refurbished Macbooks. They seem like a really good deal. Howevre, I was wondering if there's any way to change the keyboard from English to Spanish?
    Some months ago my wife took her iBook to a genius bar. SHe needed her keyboard replaced because it was decoloured. Will I be able to do the same? Just take it into a store and have them order a spanish keyboard for my macbook? if so, does anyone know how much that would cost?
    Thank you very much in advance to anyone who can help me with this. If I don't have to pay a premium price because of the keyboard alone, I will be a VERY happy man!

    Might be useful to know that I just bought a MacBook in Bangkok and they took off the English/Thai keys and put on just English ones! They just prise them off and click the new ones on. They did it in about an hour. So far, none of them fell off!
    No apparent damage to the key surrounds either. If Apple make Spanish keys, then it should be a matter of someone helpful putting them on for you...

  • Spanish Keyboards for Bolivian Orphans

    I am setting up a very basic computer lab for a Bolivian orphanage. I have a $1000 grant, I will cover the rest of the costs. I am looking at buying two Lenovo G550 2958A4U laptops (Newegg: http://tinyurl.com/ygoks92). My goal is to provide systems to help expose very poor 11-15 year old children to technology. I hope to make their interaction with these systems as fun and friendly as possible. My greatest worry is the US keyboards that come on these systems. I see 3 (reasonably normal) options:
    1. Replace keyboards manually with Latin American keyboards
    2. Buy USB wireless Latin American keyboards to supplement these systems.
    3. Require them to use keyboard shortcuts to type some Spanish characters.
    I have two questions:
    1. Where can I find Latin American keyboards for Lenovo G550 2958A4U laptops and how much do they cost?
    2. Do you have any better ideas?
    Optional background information-
    The amount of physical material that I can move to the orphanage is very limited. It follows that laptops are preferable to desktops. I plan on installing Ubuntu 9.10 with the Latin American language pack. I will be the only IT person and I will only have remote access to the systems.
    Thank you very much for your time and help,
    Daniel

    if you buy laptop from ( spanish ) lenovo, spanish keyboard option is available but i'm not sure you can find any model you like to buy.
    shop.lenovo.com : spanish
    if you can find keyboard module it costs about 40-120$.
    so, i suggest you to call support line for this issue.

  • How to get pound sterling symbol on spanish keyboard?

    how to get pound sterling symbol on spanish keyboard?

    Depends which Spanish layout;
    Spanish - alt + 9 (alt is opt or ⌥ on some keyboards).
    Spanish ISO - shift + alt + 4.
    You can find all these using keyboard viewer;
    System Preferences > Language and Text > Input Sources tab. Top of the left column, tick (check) "Keyboard and Character Viewer", Bottom of window next to search field, tick "Show input menu in menu bar"
    System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard tab; tick "show keyboard and character viewers in menu bar"
    Hold down the alt key and the alternative symbols and diacritics will be shown. Shift + alt shows more.
    The input sources menu in Language and text allows you to select  whatever keyboard you want.
