Wireless Keyboard - Whatsapp and FB

I just bought the docking and the wireless keyboard (apple store) for my iphone use, purpose of this becuase of i dont want to use the onscreen keyboard.
however, i cant enter every single sentance i had type. so i need to click on SEND button manually on the screen.
I wonder how can i ENTER? i try COMMAND+RETURN but its not working.
please help me. if not can i refund the keyboard.

As I've been checking, this is a matter of the App, name it WhatsApp. If you try to do it with MSN messenger you'll be your keybord working well (meaning, using ENTER to send the message).
I don't want to make Apple life specially easy, but this particular issue is not for they, hehe.
Kind regards.

Apple wireless keyboard, mouse and trackpad battery management is SO MESSED UP! HELP!

I have like 2 dozen batteries that I have swapped in the days since 10.8.4. The **** thing just drains in like 4 days. I am using apple wireless keyboard and mouse/trackpad (either at a time) with my macbook pro that is in closed lide clamshell mode less than a feet away from these devices. the batteries are draining like crazy! 3-4 days! they used to work for like weeks! i have heard in another thread that there is some bluetooth driver issue.
i know many of you would come up with things to check for like other wireless devices, etc. but like I said i have been using this since 2011 and only now since 10.8.4 they have gone crazy!
whats even more weird is that i dont think the batteries are really draining. its something to do with the battery management hardware/software that fails to see the power inside. when i remove the currently dead battery and put in one that was indicated having 0% charger i get a magically 50+ % sometimes event 80! a reboot and the figure is something else! since this is happening with all the three input devices i think its something to do with macbook pro.
any fix?

SOLUTION:
Put the devices in "Manual paring mode"
1. Turn device off.
2. Push and hold in power button until the LED starts flashing on and off.
3. Try the paring procedure.
4. It should work.
I went to the apple store and this is what they did. They got the trackpad paired no problem, but the keyboard would refuse to make connection. At first they blamed windows and didn't want to replace the keyboard because it worked fine under OSX. However I made them try one of their keyboards and it paired fine. So they ended up swapping out my keyboard for one of the newer ones and now it pairs with both windows and OSX with no problem!

Wireless keyboard A1016 and new MacBook Pro

I have searched but can't find whether my old Apple wireless keyboard (white case) is compatible with my new MacBook Pro. My computer finds the keyboard but then asks for a passcode and it doesn't connect. Maybe I need a firmware update??

{quote}Thank you for your help.{quote}
No problem. I love my white plastic Bluetooth keyboard with the NUMERIC KEYPAD! I plan on using until I die or Apple offers another Bluetooth keyboard with the numeric keypad. I'm sure there are lots of others that feel the same way.

Why is my Apple Wireless Keyboard connected and paired, but I can't type anything?

Hey,
I’ve been using Apple Wireless Keyboard (A1314) for a year now. Yesterday it stopped working. I can see it’s connected and paired, but I can't type. I tried unparing and pairing it again and sometimes it helps - I have no idea why, but once in ten attempts it works. When it works, though, some strange happen - like my Mac increases it’s volume level like I hit F12 on the keyboard.
When I go to Bluetooth menu battery level is hardly ever shown up. Also, when my keyboard is connected it takes a few seconds to open forementioned bluetooth menu.
So, it there change I will be able to repair it? It’s not like it costs $5. :c

Hello:
Try resetting the SMC.

TS3048 Wireless keyboard erases and retypes what it wants. Help please!

Occasionally, and just now while using PhotoShop, my wireless keyboard erases numbers I've typed in dialog boxes and types different numbers. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks much in advance!

Hello:
Please do not post the same question twice in different forums.
As someone indicated, it is probably a failing/failed KB.

Wireless keyboard freezes and takes time to 'unfreeze'

Hello,
My wireless keyboard randomly freezes when playing games and stays 'pushed down', even when my fingers are off the keys and the button isn't really down. It's really annoying me and getting me frustrated. I don't know whether its the connection between the keyboard and the usb stick i have in my desktop computer or something else. My mouse doesn't have this problem, and the keyboard and mouse both came together when i bought the computer about 2-3 weeks ago. Any help will be much appreciated,
  Sam

@ Legendary333,
Thanks for that information.
1.       Turn off the computer
2.       When you turn it on tap the F8 key repeatedly, it should lead you to a black screen with a list of options
3.       Toggle down to safe mode with networking and press enter
4.       Once in safe mode test you keyboard there
Test it for at the least 20 minutes to see if the issue occurs in this environment.
Please respond back at your earliest convenience.
Thanks

Differences between wireless keyboard old and new?

I was thinking of buying a wireless keyboard and appear to have a choice of buying the current model at reduced price (MB167B/A) or wait a couple of weeks for the newer model (MC184B/A).
This is obviously a no brainer - buy the cheaper one!
But what is the difference between the models? Apart from the newer one requires higher system requirements (MacOS X v10.5.8 and Aluminium Keyboard Software Update 2.0).
Many thanks for any help.
Cheers,
Tony

Hi Tony:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
I have an "older" Bluetooth keyboard and it works just fine.
For about 20 bucks, I would buy the older one. I cannot see any difference in functionality.
Incidentally, battery use is an issue that has been discussed in these forums at length.
FWIW, I use 2650 mAH Duracell rechargeables and a 15 minute charger. I have a bunch of rechargeable batteries and I am never longer than 15 minutes from a full charge. Rechargeables do not have the battery life of Lithium ones, but I really do not care for the reasons I indicated above.

Wireless Keyboard slow and weird

I loved my Mac when I got it but lately the keyboard is very slow to display on the ssscreen and types strange by putting double letters and spacees. I have just bought a new keyboardd because I thought the oooldd one may have got damaged by the kids buttt the problem iiiis still there (as you can see). I ammmmm devastated as it has totally ruiiined the use of my lovellllly immaaaaaac. Can anyone help me?

Testing testing, I have just put the new batteries in it that came with the new keyboard and the display is still fairly slow and the characters are doubling as much. It is a pain as I can only type very slowly for the keyboard to work and I am a fast typist. It is very frustrating, I spend more time using the backspace than anything else!!! There is a slight improvement but not much.

Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse (Bluetooth) Problems

Hi folks,
I recently got a new Mac Mini, wireless keyboard (Apple) and Magic Mouse. During high LAN activity, the keyboard and Magic Mouse will often lose connection and will have trouble re-connecting even when LAN activity goes back to basal levels. If they do not lose connection, the performance becomes terrible and both lag significantly during use.
This behavior does not happen on my MacBook Pro.

Other things to check-
Do you have anything on top of your mini, or is the top of the mini under a desk or other obstruction? The bluetooth antenna is (as you are looking from the top down at the mini) to the top right of the Apple logo on the plastic case top. Try clearing any clutter (if there is any), or establish a clear line of sight with your keyboard and mouse to the unexposed top of the mini and see if the dropouts occur.
Also, microwaves wreck havoc with bluetooth. Any machinery in the same room as your mini and keyboard/mouse?

Rechargable Batteries for Wireless Keyboard and Mouse

I'm wondering if rechargeable batteries are compatible with the Wireless Keyboard & Mouse, and if so, what types does Apple recommend? I'm constantly going through regular batteries to power these devices. Thanks.

I bought some ordinary rechargable batteries from Maplin Electronics (AA NiMH) and they were perfect (even came with an AC charger) for £9.99 (they supplied 6 and 2 AAA), so perfect for the keyboard.
Hope that helps.

New iMac wireless keyboard and magic mouse dropping connections

Hi looks like I am just another one who's got problems with Apple's wireless keyboard (KB) and magic mouse (MM).
I bought my iMac 21.5 at the beginning of last Dec. For the first few days, I noticed that the connection between MM and iMac dropped perhaps once a day when I was editing some HD footage in iMove 09. I am rather new to Mac so initially I thought iMove was dominating CPU power hence the temporary drop.
But in the next few days, I found my MM dropped connection a bit more frequently like 3-4 times a day, during word processing, browsing in Safari or even when I am doing nothing. Plus I also noticed that the KB began to have the same problem as well. Well, in all cases the communications resumed almost instantly or shortly after I clicked MM or a button on the KB. It's only the on-screen notices are very annoying....
The situation got worse in the final week of 2010, the connection (both MM and KB) dropped more frequently and sometimes communication didn't resume instantly, instead the Bluetooth Setup Assistant pops up searching for available devices....and then finally connected. Annoyed by this I took the MM to the retailer and swapped for a brand new one (from a boxed iMac), came home and hey! problem solved! but just for a MERE few hours.
On the last day of 2010, after a couple "rounds" of drop-and-reconnect I was hit by the "Bluetooth Not Available" problem after a connection failure. Left it for some moments and no sign of recovery at all! Luckily and ironically I plug in my wired USB Microsoft mouse so that I can still navigate, went to System Preference and found the Bluetooth icon disappeared as if no Bluetooth hardware was ever installed at all! OK, turned off the iMac from the menu, waited and restarted. No joy and scary enough, I can't even get into the system coz I got log-in enabled but without a working KB to enter my password. Without a choice I dug out my netbook PC, arrived in this forum and found I wasn't the only one. Followed instructions here, did a SMC reset, PRAM reset, etc then magically everything is back! Once back in, I deleted the plist, deleted devices, restarted, re-favourite MM and KB, etc. The next day, I use the installation disc to perform a hardware check, but no problem found!
But always a but, the problem still persists, so a call to Apple technical support who suggested literally the same thing I've done above and asked me to monitor the problem in case it needs repair. Honestly, I am not keen to do that as the nearest Apple centre is far from me and always busy. Not sure if anyone here can shed some lights on my problem. I needa ensure all channels are exhausted before I bring the thing back to Apple for an inspection as a last resort...
Many thanks guys

Hi, I post this because this is very similar to what is happening with my new 27in Imac.
Townsville March 05 2011 bought all singing and all dancing 27inch IMac with wireless KB and MM at new reseller grand opening. Straight forward out of the box. First night a kernal panic message and screen shut down and unable to start. Phonecall to apple care got it restarted with the apleoption+pr keys. Fine for a while, then repeated screen freezes watching eye TV.
Persevered, with similar repeated screen freezes. Reset memory for eye TV. Seemed to fix that problem, but during this time also noticed MM and KB were disappearing and not responding, only to come back by frustratingly turning them on and off, waving them near the imac and even turning the imac off and on manually, to have them come back for a while and even dragging out a cable mouse to navigate. Cut a long story short, I hoped it would sort itself. 20 days later while watching eye tv I noticed the mm and kb drop off. Cable mouse found the BT issue you guys have discussed. System Preferences showed no BT at all. Rang apple care. Went through the same drill and identified a hardware problem with BT which should be replaced, and after discussion about the other issues, suggested a replacement would be within range but to talk to the store, cause it was so new, took it back to store where my story was confirmed in a confirmation of the customers story check.....for a while.....
then all reappeared as if nothing was wrong, fortunately it was witnessed by the store, so off it went to Brisbane for the 4 day turnaround. Wednesday the tech rang BT MM and KB all working fine. Further explained all the above, so he has stress tested it and I am informed it is has displayed none of the bad behaviour and is working well and on its way home, hopefully by monday. So will keep you posted. No new mac offered, no replacement BT module offered.
PS I have only ever owned macs, still love them, and scripting this on my mac book, which incidentally, has never missed a beat.

Installing old wireless keyboard drivers on a new bootcamp?

I wanted to share an experience of keyboard problems with windows 7 and bootcamp, and then ask a question about bootcamp on my soon-to-arrive shiny new iMac.
Current machine: Core 2 duo 24" iMac mid 2007; Mavericks; bootcamp created with version 3.0, but then upgraded for Windows 7
Yesterday did an upgrade install from Vista to Windows 7 and installed the latest bootcamp version 4 drivers. (this was a 32 bit not 64 bit setup - since the Vista I upgraded from was 32 bit).
I then had driver problems with my 2007 vintage wireless keyboard... The keyboard would work for a moment or two, but then stop. It was still paired, but nothing you typed showed up in Windows. (It worked fine in OSX of course...)
Eventually after huge amounts of googling some page gave me the idea of changing the driver for the keyboard.
If you go to Control Panel -> Device Manager -> Human interface devices -> Apple Keyboard then right click and select "Update Driver Software", then select "Browse my computer", then select "Let me pick", you get a list of all the driver versions that have ever been installed on your computer for that peripheral. Because I had started out with a Bootcamp 3 installation, which I'd then updated, the version 3.0.0.0 apple keyboard driver was still in the list of available drivers. Selected that, and bingo, the keyboard worked perfectly.
Only issue is, I've just bought a nice new iMac (arrives next week) and I can't see how I can get the version 3 keyboard driver onto it's boot camp. I want to set boot camp up from scratch, so that I can have 64 bit windows running. But if I do that Boot Camp Assistant 5 will install the very latest drivers, presumably including an apple keyboard driver that doesn't like my old wireless keyboard. And while the bootcamp 4 and subsequent driver sets include separate .exe files for different things (including the keyboard), the 3.x drivers were just a single executable. And if you try to run it on top of a more recent set of drivers, it just tells you it isn't needed and stops.
Question: Any idea how I can install the 3.0.0.0 keyboard driver on a brand new iMac with Bootcamp 5.0 set up?
(For various reasons I've ordered my new mac with the wired keyboard, but I might still sometimes want to use it with my old wireless one).

It depends on which version of LP9 you own.....
If you don't already own an earlier version you cannot buy Logic Pro 9 any longer from Apple.. It is discontinued....
If you do own an earlier version then...
App Store version? Just sign into the Mac App Store... using the same Apple ID you used to purchase Logic in the first place...and Logic Pro 9 will be found under the Purchase Tab for you to click on and download..
DVD Version? Install via DVDs .... If you don't have a DVD player in your Mac you will need to purchase an external one.... or use another Mac which has a DVD drive using Remote Disk
DVD or CD sharing: Using Remote Disc
Install....
Do not run Logic but instead....
Update to 9.1.8 via this link....
Logic Pro 9.1.8
Now launch Logic....

How can I troubleshoot this problem with the iMac keyboard? My keyboard disconnects and reconnects within seconds but all the typing is lost while it was offline. This is usually 5 seconds or less but happens 2 or 3 times in a minute. Annoying!

My wireless keyboard disconnects and reconnects within seconds but all text that was typed during the time offline is missing. i have to go back and retype missing parts. What can I do to troubleshoot this. The computer is only about six month old. This problem is new in the last couple weeks. Thanks for suggestions.

Beat me to it, Donald. But there is a possible alternative. If the batteries have been replaced since new, were they replaced with the same batteries or another make. There are examples around which do not fit perfectly and leave a certain amount of movement inside the battery housing. That could lead to instability such as the OP describes.

Budget alternative to Apple Wireless Keyboard?

Because of my current apartment set up, my computer is rarely in a position where a corded keyboard will suffice anymore. The cords are just too troublesome and even with a USB extension cable, it's not long/free enough for me. So I've turned my head towards wirless keyboards, and I have a few questions.
1. What is a good budget alternative to the Apple Wireless Keyboard (AWK from now on)that will run in OS X? By budget, I mean cheaper than the AWK, and preferably with a bluetooth adapter included (though this is a negotiable term). Those designed for Windows that still work with Mac are acceptable, as I believe that this software (http://gnufoo.org/ucontrol/ucontrol.html) should alleviate the alt/windows key problem.
2. Do I need the D-Link Bluetooth adapter to use the AWK, or are cheap alternative such as the following possible candidates?
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833340003)
3. While browsing, I came across a Keyboard/Trackball combination which claims to work with Macintosh. I tried to locate a review that could confirm or deny it, but was unable to. The product is this:
http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/index.php?mainpage=product_info&productsid=4066
Does anyone have any experience with a wireless keyboard+trackball, and would they recommend it?
I just want to know all of my options before I purchase a new keyboard.
Power Mac G3 800 mhz Mac OS X (10.4.2)

Eventually just bought the Apple Keyboard.
