    Multi-Device Bluetooth Keyboard Recommendations

    My Logitech K850 combo has very spotty input and it's unpredictable. Sometimes it's smooth as butter, sometimes it drops or repeats keystrokes and the mouse input gets all jumpy. I paired a Logitech MX Anywhere 2 mouse (bluetooth) and that works great, so I'm thinking it's just a problem w/...

    Magic Keyboard on 2020 MacBook Pro shows problems. New hardware not as reliable as promised?

    After I had three MacBooks with faulty Butterfly keyboards, I was relieved when Apple finally announced their new MacBook "Magic" Keyboards. I ordered a new MacBook Pro in early May. A few days ago I noticed that the MacBook behaves strangely: It appears as if the system receives random...

    Installed Security Update 2020-004 twice and got keyboard issues

    Hi, After installing Security Update 2020-004 on my mid 2012 Mac Air the keyboard started generating the wrong characters. This has happened in the past and so I tried what worked before and switched accounts. No problems with the other user account - the keyboard worked fine and I'm writing...

    Editing Fantastical without using mouse

    Does anyone know how I can edit Fantastical without touching the mouse? I know the shortcuts they have but I want to be able to move up and down my tasks or events and edit their details without ever leaving the keyboard. It is such a great app that I can't believe they wouldn't make this...

    iPhone I upgraded to iOS 13 and freaked out! <rant>

    Excuse me for a very emotional style, but I'm feel toasted and need to share with you some things killing me with Apple for a few years already, and I'm sure, you too. This is simply a last drop into a bowl. Apple discussion deleted my request regarding the problem and I'm bursting! I've been...

    Keyboard doesn’t work

    After a few seconds when I restart the computer and try to fill in the password the keyboard doesn’t working, the touchpad doesn’t work either. The computer itself starts looking for a blootooth keyboard for connecting. The only button that works is the power button, so I can only turn on and...

    How can I add Ctrl-based keyboard shortcuts for the [ and ] keys?

    I've been playing with the idea of mapping all of the keys to the right of the P in a QWERTY keyboard to some kind of modifier key, preferably Ctrl on my Mac. How can I add shortcuts such as `Ctrl-u` and `Ctrl-i` to [ and ], respectively? Looking around, I haven't found a good way to do that...

    Hi, for little over 4 weeks I own a IPP 12.9 and SKF. Due lockdown, I‘ve only used the SKF in house. However, there is already serious wear on the keyboard. Do other also experience this? I expect to have a faulty SKF as I also experience frequent keyboard disconnects. Will see if this can...

    The 'Magic' Keyboard for the iPad Pro 12" - Am I the only crazy one here?

    Why in Zeus's Infinite Wisdom is this Magic Keyboard worth $350? :apple:🙄🤫🤭🤔 Have we all gone mad, or am I alone on this? :rolleyes: Also, what's so 'magical' about it? I dig the fact that the cursor appears on the screen, but that's worth $350? You can't even tweak shortcut keys the way you'd...

    Macbook's butterfly keyboard issues is not about dust/debris at all!

    ~Last year, my old 2016 Macbook Pro got completely unusable because of the keyboard issue (it started after a few months and wasn't a big deal, then it got much worse over time), so I bought a brand new Macbook Air 2018 thinking a keyboard cover will save me, from the day one, I've put a...

    Magic keyboard alternative for iPad Pro 11”

    I was just wondering if anybody was aware of a keyboard case with a trackpad for the iPad Pro 11 inch? I’ve been looking around but I haven’t been able to find anything for the 11 inch iPad Pro specifically. Maybe I missed something? It would be nice save a little money, which is why I’m looking...

    What do you guys do when your ONLY Mac needs to be service?

    As the title says, what do you guys do when your only useable Mac has to be returned to Apple/Apple Authorised Reseller for repairs and battery replacement? Service time may take 2-3 weeks. If you have a Windows computer, do you use it in the meantime? Or use your iPad, or iPhone? Buy a new...

    Magic Keyboard scrolling stops working

    Will stat off by saying I love the Magic Keyboard for my 2018 11” iPad Pro and the trackpad has changed how I use the iPad in ways I never imagined, it really makes it a real contender for a laptop substitute. I have a weird issue where the two finger scrolling will randomly stop working after...

    The least Tim Cook could do is offer better trade-in for people forced to trade due to their faulty keyboard design!

    The keyboard on my 13" MBP has been replaced once and badly needs it again (and has needed it for some time but it's a pain to get it fixed). The primary reason for replacing my current MBP with a new one is purely for a functioning keyboard. My wife has endured the bad keyboard on her MBP for...
