So this Thanksgiving weekend I finally had time to re-install OSX on my Macbook (tried creating a partition for windows using boot camp and was told to re-install OSX – just Google “bootcamp partition error”). Log out and back in or reboot to use your new special keys. Click Write to Registry when you’re done adding all your key mappings. Click Type Key to associate a key with the “From Key” mapping and likewise with the “To Key” mapping or just pick one of the choices and click OK. With your Apple Keyboard plugged in, unzip the SharpKeys download to your desktop and run the SharpKeys.exe executable. Grab a free copy of SharpKeys 3.0 from Codeplex A few hours of use later I found myself in a bit of a pickle though…the Apple keyboard has no Print Screen key, no Num Lock or Insert and it’d sure be nice to get those function keys to work. Windows detected it as an Apple keyboard without any 3rd party drivers and with the exception of the Function (Fn) keys, I was using the keyboard in seconds. I figured if I just picked a used one up on eBay and hooked it up to my Sony VAIO running Windows 7 圆4 what’s the worst that could happen? It worked surprisingly well, that’s what happened.
I love the new aluminum Apple keyboard, but am too cheap to buy the iMac it usually comes with.
