Three words about the new keyboard layout so far - Can't stand it. I don't ever want to have to hold the fn key to access any of the controls I used to have on my first generation MacBook. For me this is a step backward.

    I hope the switch went well. I have been studying universal design for human computer interactions including designing for the blind. I heard mixed things about the Mac audio/speech software. I was just wondering how the transition went?

  • all my letters are mixed up on my mac i dont know what the hells going on,i have to use another keyboard through usb it's not the numbers lock either if anyone can help that'll be great

  • Quit your bitchin'. Change it in preferences.

  • You will eventually get past it though. I still am learning the layout.

  • contd... so although knowing there are people worse off than oneself doesn't make a toss of difference to life's little annoyances... you are sounding a bit whiney.

  • i'm just about to switch from being a windows user of many years to a mac without ever having seen one. and i'm blind. so i have to learn a brand new operating system and a brand new bunch of commands for both the system and the speech software. EVERYTHING is going to be different, and the speech capability is going to be not as good as what i'm used to. so though i can sympathise with people hating change for change sake, part of me is thinking, you have to press a diffferent key ffs!

  • control F3 is the app way you like

  • Yea, there's a setting in System Preferences to use the function keys as normal function keys.

  • maybe you should have found out that you can fix it before complaining about it, champ.

  • like how he says 'button' lol sounds like but-ton
