If you have four keys to the left of the spacebar, it should be the third one
from the far left. If you have three keys to the left of the spacebar, it's the
one in the middle.

On a Windows keyboard, the Fn key is usually the second key from the far left
end of the Spacebar row.
HTH.

When using a Windows keyboard on a Mac, keep in mind that the Windows logo key
serves as the Command key, and the ALT key as the Option key.
These keys can be remapped, but I’ve never bothered to do that.

Basic troubleshooting. Remove all the extraneous variables, and see what
results you get.
Next step would be to try a different USB keyboard and see what happens.

Have you tried connecting the keyboard directly to the Mac mini, and not going
through the hub unit?
Just a thought.

Hi,
I have a standard, very standard (no extra keys) 104-key PC USB keyboard

Working the Mac with this keyboard works mostly, but the exception

I connected a external USB keyboard to it for the first time, and for
some reason the modifier change doesn't work. I do exactly the same as
on the iMac, go swop them around inside modifier keys under Keyboard
preferences but it doesn't work.
Ok, Tim, I'll keep it in mind. Thanks. had this problem before when waking up
the computer, but never on the initial login screen.

Hi,
I think that this has something to do with another screen gaining VO focus.
The Login screen is usually totally accessible if you attempt to use it right
away. If your Mac has gone to sleep or if a Screensaver has activated, then
you need to either click a mouse or trackpad to bring focus
Hi, all,
I've noticed that on the login screen, I can't navigate to interact and find
the username field, etc. Once I use the Magic Trackpad, I can type in the
password field just fine. Would there be a way to troubleshoot this that anyone
knows of?
thanks,

If you can tell me where the function key is, or if you have any other
