Won't Recognize Extra Keys on Keyboard

I just bought a new Keyboard (Razer Tarantula), and it has 10 keys that can be programmed. But I can't get my computer to recognize that my keyboard has these extra 10 keys. I am trying to program macros into these keys, but I can't because my computer recognizes all of them as the "A" key. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
thanks!

Have you installed an OSX driver for it ?

I added a new cpu switch to the mix and now openwindows won't work because it won't recognize the mouse or keyboard. Has anyone else had problems with these new mouse and keyboard emulating switches?

IPhone 6 Plus - remove extra keys on keyboard in landscape mode

is there a way to remove the extra keys that appear on the keyboard in Landscape mode? I would rather the extra keys are not there so that the letter keys are larger? thanks

There is no way to modify the existing keyboard. However, iOS 8 allows for adding third party keyboard. Search the App Store. Another keyboard may better suit you.

Imac core2 duo mountain lion won't recognize D key for diagnostics

I've tried everything I can thnk of to get my mac to boot diagnostics. Is there any way to get a diagnostic only bootable media? Wired or wireless keyboards make no difference. Nor does booting with the option key, selecting the CD, and pressing the D key before going on.

Tommy197944 - i have tried all 4 USB ports as well as different USB cables. I took the drive to the Apple Store where they tried it on several different systems. iMAC running OS X 10.8.5; MACbook Pro running OS X Lion and a MACbook Pro running OS X 10.8.5. Both MACbook Pros mounted the drive but the iMAC failed to mount the drive. I remember a blog response saying swapping the OS X Mountain Lion's DVDPlayback.Framework file for OS X Lion's DVDPlayback.Framework might solve the issue.
It is perplexing that the exact same Samsung DVD Writer, model SE-208DC/TSWS mounts on MACbook Pro running the latest version of Mountain Lion (10.8.5). That MACbook Pro also had an internal DVD Writer. The Samsung DVD Writer was also tested on a MACbook Pro running Lion and it also mounted correctly. So what did Apple change in OS X Mountain Lion that would prevent the iMAC from mounting the external Samsung DVD Writer. The Samsung DVD Writer has no drivers for the MAC. It depends on the OS X files. I am trying to keep a positive attitude and hoping Apple did not change OS X Mountain Lion to prevent 3rd party external DVD Writers from mounting correctly with the new IMACs that no longer can be configured with an internal DVD Writer.
Most grateful for some proven solutions.

Phone won't recognize any keys

I have the Blackberry Curve 8330 smart phone through Boost Mobile. I have only had it for at least 5 months and have had no real problems except for a few here and there. About less than a week ago though, my phone started to restart for no reason without me touching it. Today I was texting a friend and after I hit send on a message I put the phone on the desk beside me and when I looked at it again after a few minutes the phone was restarting again so I didn't worry about it and looked away. Again when I looked back the screen was black and I figured it was done restarting so I tried to hit the keys so I could text again and it wouldn't work so I didn't know what was wrong. I pulled out the battery since none of the buttons would work and again I looked away because it takes so long to start up. When I looked back it was the same story. I tried another battery I have and it was the same story yet again. Finally I tried to connect it to the computer since I thought maybe the battery might be going dead since they both were refurbished and when I did it went straight to the home screen which means it was on. I tried to hit all the keys and yet again it wouldn't work. All I can do is move the highlighter through the icons on the home screen, but I cant click them with the trackball. I searched online for help at this point and found on here a section that says about restarting the OS and thought that might help, so I followed the instructions as they appeared on here and it is still the same story, but now in the back of the phone there is a message that says about the Blackberry and it seems to be the user agreement message that pops up so when the OS is redone so I think it worked, but yet again the keys won't work. Then my alarm went off which I forgot was on, and it was keep going off and I couldn't stop it so I again restarted the phone and the alarm is keep going off every time I try.
Can anyone help me get my phone fixed? I don't have the money for another Blackberry and would like to keep using the Blackberry as it is a good phone. What can I do to fix it and would this be covered under the warranty? I do text on the phone a lot so could that be what caused it/ I don't think it would be from texting though because none of the buttons work, not just the keypad but also the mute button on top and buttons on the sides. Please help me.

It does sound like a hardware problem. You should have a one year warranty on the device. Contact your wireless service provider for assistance in getting it replaced.

New Mac Mini won't recognize passcode for wireless keyboard

Just unboxed my new Mac Mini and have started the install process. Made it to the wireless mouse ok, then the keyboard. It finds the keyboard, gives me the passcode, then I enter it and press enter as requested, and nothing happens. It just spins through the process again and again. I have installed new batteries, turned all things on and off at random, and turned off bluetooth on all other devices that might be interfering. Any ideas?

Take the batteries out of the keyboard
Turn off the computer
Put batteries back in keyboard and hit the power button on the side
wait 5 seconds
turn on mini
go back through the setup process
works every time for me

I have a I Mac 6 years old. We downloaded leopard and now the computer won't recognize the mouse or keyboard. What do we do?

I have a 6 year old I Mac. Last night we tried to download leopard and now it doesn't detect the mouse or keyboard. Then, the whole thing wouldn't reboot! Help!

Download means to install off the internet or a computer server. Leopard 10.5, and Snow Leopard 10.6 are only available on CD. A 6 year old iMac should be able to install 10.5 from CD, if the following requirements are met:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2275
And if these are met, 10.6, Snow Leopard can install on them:

Are you sure you meant download, and you meant Leopard?

WoW won't recognize keys after update

I just installed 10.5.6, and now WoW won't recognize ' as a usable key in the game. So if I want to use it to make the character auto-run, it won't do anything. I can still assign the key to something, but the game itself won't register its use. Works on my MacBook which I haven't upgraded yet, doesn't on my iMac.
Anything which might screw with this in the update?

Hi, I have a similar, though not exactly the same issue, I'm using the DVORAK keyboard layout.
I had my "wasd" keys mapped to their DVORAK alternatives ",aoe" respectively. They no longer work and if I try and remap them in the "Key Bindings" interface, they strangely come out as "wasd".
Also if I want to open chat in game, I have to type the '/' key, which is under normal circumstances my 'z' key. Once in-chat it's fine and I can type using DVORAK again.
This is ever since the upgrade to 10.5.6. It might as well be a WoW issue, not a OSX issue.
I'm not the only one with this problem - see my post on the WoW-forums:

I have a sync key, have installed Firefox 28, but it won't recognize my account?

Ok. Firefox was my main browser on my old laptop, but I ended up having to wipe it's hard drive a few weeks back.
Before I wiped the hard drive I saved a recovery key. It did not say that I needed an account, just the key, so that is literally all I have. I did not have a firefox account back then. (Note: I'm pretty sure I didn't have an account at least, because when I searched for an account on Firefox with the only two emails that I use it couldn't find an account under either.)
Now that I'm trying to recover my old data, I've read that I have to download a pre-29 version of Fireox, so I got Firefox 28 mobile, but the damn thing insists that I need a Firefox account ALONG WITH the recovery key to gather the old data. It won't recognize my new account info (that I just made when I downloaded the newest version of Firefox before realizing it wouldn't be able to sync), so now here I am. With a seemingly useless sync key, a useless sync account, and all of my old bookmarks and passwords lost to the ages.
Is there anything I can do, or should I just give up?

hello, for the old sync system in firefox 28 and below you also had to sign up with a mail address and password originally - to connect firefox to the old account you would need to have all those three pieces (mail, password & recovery key) available to you unfortunately...

Tiger won't recognize Japanese IME keys

I'm using OS X 10.4.6 with a Japanese keyboard. I need to switch between Kotoeri and USA input methods frequently. On this keyboard which I have imported from Japan, there are buttons specifically for this purpose.
However, I cannot make Tiger recognize the keys. If I select "Japanese JIS keyboard with input method keys" from the keyboard preferences, everything works fine except for the keys next to the spacebar and the key to the left of the '1' key.
In keyboard viewer there are just holes where these keys should be. "power", "sleep" and "wake" seem just fine. What can I do to fix this?

If
I select "Japanese JIS keyboard with input method
keys" from the keyboard preferences, everything works
fine except for the keys next to the spacebar and the
key to the left of the '1' key.
Exactly where are these preferences that mention a JIS keyboard? I don't see them on my machine.
I have heard of machines not recognizing a JIS layout at all, in which case resetting the PMU may fix it. But your problem seems different, if everything works right except a couple keys.
As a temporary work-around, you should be able to switch between US and Kotoeri using Apple + space (or whatever you have set in the shortcuts prefs for the Select Previous Input Source function).

Stuck at login screen after Yosemite Upgrade - 2013 27" imac won't recognize keyboard or mouse

I installed yosemite without issues on my 2013 macbook pro retina so decided to try it on my 2013 27" imac. Install went fine until I get to login screen. Wireless keyboard and mouse won't pair so I can't type in password. Connected generic wired keyboard and mouse and still won't recognize it.
However, when I restart it I can hold down option on keyboard and it will bring up list of hard drives to boot from (I also have windows installed with bootcamp) so I know imac pairs the key

So the iMac was purchased by my father in 2011 shortly before he died. I thought, why not check if he also purchased Applecare at the same time? Turns out he did! So after calling and trying to reset the SMC, etc. with it not working the Apple tech told me to turn it over to an authorized repair shop here in Louisiana. Hopefully they can fix it.

Start won't appear after clicking start button or win key on keyboard

It's happened after update to 9926. First start menu works properly but after reboot it broken-down. Right click works fine. Before reboot i disabled "Windows search" service but i don't think it related.

Start won't appear after clicking the start button or win key on keyboard on the second user account. It works fine on the administrator account. UAC changes have no effect. Re-booting has no effect. Build is 9926

New iMac keyboard won't recognize devices

My new iMac won't recognize my iPod when I plug it into the keyboard. I have to plug it into the display . This is tough because of it's location. Anyway to make the keyboard recognize?
Also, neither keyboard nor display will recognize my JVC camcorder of about 1 year old.
Thanks. Customer Service allows me to book a call back for today but they call back to say they are closed.....

HI,
Go here for a list of compatible camcorders.

Always connect the iPod to the USB port on the back of the iMac, not the keyboard.
Why is it difficult to connect to the display?
