Switching English keyboard for a Spanish one

I am thinking about getting a "new" refurbished 13 inch Macbook Pro. It comes with the English Keyboard but because I write a lot in Spanish for my job I was wondering if there's any way to bring it to the store to have the keyboard replaced (is that covered in the warranty?) to that language.
Is that possible at all or do I have to custom order a Spanish keyboard layout from the website?
Thank you!

Contact the store. As far as warranty is concerned I doubt that swapping the keyboard is covered under warranty. If you mean that when the keyboard is swapped out will the machine be covered under warranty then contact the store but I don't see why not.

  • Tecra M3: Change english keyboard to a german one

    Hi,
    I have received a Tecra M3 with an english keyboard, though we are located in Germany. This in fact makes it a bit hard to deal with german special characters. Is it possible to simply exchange the keyboard by a german one? And, if so, how much does it cost?
    Thanks, Carsten

    Hi
    I really dont know how much it costs but I am pretty sure that you can exchange the keyboard to German one. Service partner can order it for you. After that install German operating system and .. enjoy the life.
    If you want to exchange it alone, be careful because of warranty but the exchange procedure is very simply and you can do it alone. If you need some help write gain.
    Good luck!

  • 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?

    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

    my iMac keeps typing a minus sign. I switched my wireless keyboard for a plug in Windows keyboard, and it keeps typing this one character. I took the batteries out of the Mac keyboard, so that is not the problem. I am running Mac OS X 10.6.8. In parallels, I don't have any problem, just on the Mac platform.

    Thanks for your observation. I realize they are different versions, but when I use the "Software Update" menu, this is as far as it would update. Is there some way to update the iMac beyond what "Software Update" does? I've tried it several times.
    Please Note.
    Upgrading OSX 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) to 10.8.3 (Mountain Lion) is not an update. It is a paid upgrade. Just as with 10.7 (Lion) you must purchase it from the App Store with yor Apple ID and install it after backing up your current computer state for safety.

  • Spanish characters in English keyboard?

    Hi all,
    I have both British and Spanish language inputs from System Preferences so I can switch between them.
    This constrains me to use the character palette. when typing Spanish.
    Does anyone know the keystrokes for accented vowels in Spanish, using English keyboard?
    The characters are: á, é, í, ó, ú, ü and ñ
    Thanks in advance

    It is very easy to learn and remember the accents on the Macintosh keyboard, unlike in Windows which are done as ALT- 000, where 000 is some forgetable number.
    You don't have to learn each specific instance, just the associated vowel which is most commonly used with it. The set of pre-keys works with the other vowels as well.
    So for example the umlaut ¨is most commonly seen on the German ü so just remember the associated cmd u followed by whatever vowel after to get:
    option u = ä, ë, ï, ö, ü
    similarly
    option ` [under the esc key] = à, è, ì, ò, ù
    option e = á, é, í, ó, ú
    option i = â, ê, î, ô, û
    option n = ã, õ, ñ
    Some work more directly such as:
    option a = å
    option o = ø
    option s = ß
    option b = ∫
    option c = ç
    option d = ∂
    opton f = ƒ
    Some are more arcane but still memorable:
    option q = œ (think of an extended o)
    option w = ∑ (think of turning the w on its side)
    option r = ® (fairly obvious)
    option t = †
    option y = ¥
    option p = π
    option v = √
    option m = µ
    option = = ≠
    Usually the shift gets the capitalised version (doesn't work out 100% of the time).
    This is what I love about the remarkable clear headedness and forethought that went into Macintosh design. Fortunately most of this has survived the transition to OSX.
    Even if I don't specifically know which key does it a quick guess and try gets it for me.

    Yes, this feature does exist still in Mac OS X.
    To activate this feature, do the following:
    1. Open System Preferences.
    2. Choose the International Preference Pane.
    3. Click the Inputs tab.
    4. Check the Character Palette.
    5. You will notice a flag appear in your status bar next to your battery Life.
    6. Click the flag, and select Show Character Palette.

  • Ukrainian and English keyboard switching

    I have a Logitech Ukrainian English Keyboard, and I have the Ukrainian language keyboard input set in my preferences. For some reason when I am typing in Ukrainian and I need to position my cursor back a space or several to fix a mistake the language defaults to English and I must manually go back and switch back to Ukrainian.
    Now I also have a Apple Russian/English Keyboard and the same problem.
    I type my documents in multi languages (sometimes), and it is most annoying when I switch to Russian or Ukrainian and go back to do and edit to have it default back to English.
    What can I do to keep the language up until I decide to change it not the Mac???
    Thanks in advance!

    On a side note: Every PC Clone shop I have visited has a zillion PC's, but they will install your software for you and for some reason you never get the disks... lol
    They have tons of printers but finding the ink to replace is difficult if you are looking for Epson or HP, but if you want ColorWay or some other after market ink well no problem.
    Paper? We don't have Office Depot types of stores.
    PC Games or Movie DVDs? Are all pirated, or you can download them for free of the net here in Ukraine.
    Finding an original un opened factory sealed copy of Windows 7 took a week of searching in my town, it was only available in Russian (not even Ukrainian which I would have preferred over Russian) the chain store had one copy of each version and Ultimate was $380 or 3000UAH.
    At one of the 4 stores in Kiev (iStore) that sells Macs only, I scored iPods, Snow Lep in Russian, and Apple Keyboards all from Apple and factory sealed. They have iPads and minimal support for repair of the products they stock, so it is not so bad, but Kiev is an hour away by bus. Longer on donkey cart. NO iPhones.
    So in the end, if the only real problem I have ever had with any of my Macs is the stupid keyboard switching back and forth on occasion, I guess I can't really complain. For all of these years they have been hassle free, two virus attacks since 1984. Two actual hardware failures since 1984 ... I buy new iMacs when I feel the need to go shopping or something looks just too good to pass up.
    My internet DSL Line is about as slow as a dead cow dragging a dead elephant up a 50% grade hill. My actual telephone lines were laid by the Soviets over 40 years ago. I make my own vodka!
    Thanks for your help!!! It was much appreciated.

  • Spanish support using English Keyboard

    Hi
    We have a web based chat applicaiton where in we have an end user chatting with a helpdesk agent. At the agent side, he needs to chat with the end user in Spanish. But the agent has an English Keyboard. The constraints in this scenario are
    1. The agent needs to chat with various end users (English/Spanish/French) at the same time. Every time he cannot change the language settings available at the OS level and change the keyboard settings to chat with various users.
    2. The agent might not know the windows based codes for the letters in spanish accent. so he cannot directly key in the codes also. Moreover, this methodology will reduce the efficiency of the agent
    We need some programmatic way of doing this in the applet to switch to other languages using ENGLISH keyboard. Some mapping is required. Any ideas, what technology/utility to use?
    Thanks

    I am not sure I understand constraint number 1: are you saying that an agent who is able to remember the key placement of a Spanish and a French keyboard while using an English keyboard is unable to use a simple hot key for switching input languages?
    I am not saying it might not be worthwhile to do what you suggest, just puzzled that it is viewed as that much of a problem (compared to keeping Spanish vs. French vs. English keyboard layouts straight - I am having enough trouble remembering the Danish keyboard layout while using an English keyboard :-))

  • Can I use one wireless mouse and keyboard for a MB and a pc?

    Hi,
    I am planning to buy a lcd display which basically has both dvi and vga ports. So, I thought I will plug my pc into the vga and my MB into the DVI and use the same display for both machines. I just need to switch between the source through the display menu in order to switch. Now the problem is I can't seem to fiigure out how to use a single wireless KB and a mouse to run in both systems.
    Anyone has any idea?

    jhawk,
    I can see the appeal of your desired setup, but is the limitation the inability to "Pair" the mouse/keyboard to more than one computer at a time? (Practically, that makes sense, you don't want to be blindly moving both cursors around at the same time, since you can only see one screen at a time)
    You CAN operate bluetooth devices on Windows without pairing-you just need to locate the device each time before using:
    http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/wireless/2003/09/18/winxpunwired.html
    So maybe you can pair the Mac version, and just search out the device each time you switch over? (but then you would have to "unpair" it off the Mac too) Maybe you need to write two scripts for each platform: pair/unpair devices.
    Sounds like it would be easier to buy two wireless keyboards and mice :P
    What you really want is a utility like this:

    (its only Mac to Mac though, unfortunately)
    Good luck!
