Hi Tiffanitsa, > > Okay. It's the function key that I'm missing on this new keyboard. > This is very very bad.
You said in a post in another thread that you bought this USB keyboard from the Apple Store? If it is a full size keyboard the Fn key is in the second bank of keys, between the numeric keypad at the far right and the regular keyboard keys at the far left. At the bottom of the second bank of keys, there are the arrow keys in the familiar "inverted T" configuration. Move up from the left arrow key to the six-pack of keys above the inverted T of the arrow keys. The Fn key is at the far left at the top of the six-pack, and to the right of the delete key on the regular keyboard (first bank of keys). The six- pack keys are: Fn, Home, Page Up then the next row below these: forward delete, End, Page Down. Also, your MacBook should be in warranty if you have AppleCare, but you can check by going to the Apple's Online Service Assistant (Google it or use the web page address here): https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do In the first text field type in the serial number of your machine. You can find this by going to the Apple Menu (VO-M) and arrowing down to select "About this Mac" (and return). At that page, you'll be at the Software Update button. VO-Left arrow to the field for your operating system version (e.g. Version10.5.6). Route your cursor here (VO-Command-F5). Then click twice using VO-Shift-Space by holding down the Control, Option, and Shift keys and tapping the space bar twice. The first click gives your MacBook's machine build code (identifies when it was manufactured). The second click gives you the Serial Number. VO-Right arrow and then VO-Left arrow back onto this field to hear it announced. Then use VO-Shift-C to copy the last phrase to the clipboard. If you open up a TextEdit window and paste with Command-V you'll have the information you need. The phrase will be "Serial Number Wxxxxx". You only need to copy the part with letters and numbers to paste into the text field. You also need to change the pop up button for your country to United States. When you press return, or navigate to the "Continue" button and press (VO-Space) You'll get information on your warranty status. But the people at the Apple Store should have been able to check this for you, HTH Cheers, Esther --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
