Trying to find a wireless keyboard to operate my sony smart tv its a bravia hd
I would like to know the same thing, I've had the XBR 55HX929 for three months and am very unhappy using the $299.00 universal remote the keyboard functions are cumbersome and the process slow and not worth the effort most times. I regret not going with the samsung smart TV for the ease of using the smart functions. I really hope there is a solution.
It would be most helpful to get a direct answer from Sony with salient details. The posters hereon have Bravia high end TV's and would like the convenience of keyboard usage. I have read through the thread and cannot figure out whether - A wired computer keyboard with USB connector will actually work?Will a USB dongle and bluetooth keyboard work?Will a mouse work?Is there any Sony keyboard option?What option can we use to input text other than the remote controller which discourages use. I have a KDL 40 EX 720 and after reading through your thread, I have no clue what works. Can you offer some precise information please. Thank you. John F

am trying to connect my wireless keyboard to my apple tv and it stays in a searching mode and does not pick it up. help
Welcome to the Apple community.
There probably isn't a lot you can do, since the router settings will be beyond your control. Many such services in hotels and the like, use a system whereby you need to login through a webpage, since the Apple TV cannot display webpages, there is no way around this. You would probably be best asking at reception if this is the case. -
I am trying to find the Armenian Keyboard and it seems as though it doesn't exist. How may I write in my language? When will Apple develope the Armenian keyboard? I dislike using 3rd party apps that have the keyboard but Apple continuously does not integrate it into the Iphone users updates.
Nobody here would know if and when an Armenian KB will be available. Nobody here works for Apple and they do not monitor this forum.

I have an imac and at start up I get an error message saying "can't find wireless keyboard" and it tries looking for one via bluetooth. Unfortunately I only have a usb keyboard, which doesn't seem to register. I can't type my log in details in so I can't use my computer. I have tried changing the usb port the keyboard is plugged in to, I have restarted, and I have tried an SMC re-boot. The keyboard does work on another computer (the one I'm writing on), but I can't get it to register on the imac. Any suggestions?
iMac from 2008 and I am pretty sure its 10.6.8, but not positive because now the computer won't even get past the grey apple screen.

Can you borrow a wired keyboard? And / or take the keyboard into an Apple Store and ask if you can try it on one of their Macs.

Cannot press enter after passkey to pair wireless keyboard on restarting iMac as enter was remapped
My wireless keyboard needed new batteries, when I replaced them it wouldn't repair so I rebooted the iMac as it said in another thread. When prompted for passkey I cannot press return/enter as previously it stopped working and I remapped R shift as enter- which I presume only operates if the system is paired?
Any help please to repair keyboard?Connected a wired keyboard but when trying to pair the wireless keyboard it still wont pair as hitting R shift ( remapped as enter) is not accepted.
Hitting enter/retunt doesnt do anything either
Any ideas anyone?? -
I am starting my new Mac Mini and am trying to connect the wireless keyboard but it doesn't work! The keyboard only blinks green but doesn't connect? I can easily connect the keyboard to my MacBook without any problems.
Does anybody have a clue about what I am doing wrong?Is it Mac OS X Server or client? If Server, a wired keyboard is required during setup (or a remote installation from another Mac); if client, maybe you should unpair the keyboard from the other Mac before trying to pair it with the Mini.
Just some guesses...
