Hi Brian,
I know the Apple USB Keyboard and they are such a favourite. I use the
same and love this model.
Sounds like there is nothing wrong with the USB socket on your iMac if
it’s servicing the KB without the Numeric Keypad so I like Peter’s idea
of giving the suspect KB
Hi Brian, It is worth plugging the keyboard into another computer with

Hi folks,
I got one of the above about a month ago.
I am absolutely wrapped.
It is great to use a proper keyboard again.
My typing is faster and far fewer typo’s.
And I can hear it.
I do not like those flat keyboards from Apple.
I would recommend the DAS.

I bought one online from HK, but it was for the older model with

Does anyone know where I can reliably source one?

Hi Daniel
You might recall that my wife purchased an iBook G4 14 laptop
(M9628X/A) from you back in April 2006. She has managed to rub off the

Today I had call to fire up the old 24 iMac - but the keyboard is plugged
into the back of the new machine - so I thought I'd just use the wireless
keyboard - and that's
Replying to my own post, from further reading of Apples support site:

If your wireless keyboard isn¹t paired with your Mac, the indicator

Just to add my two cents worth. A couple of years ago; before I became a
convert; I was trying to find out how to remove the keys from my keyboard
attached to my old PC. I was surprised how many people on the net had actually
put their keyboards in the dishwasher. It was pretty
Hi all
I always like this Keyboard cleaning thread when it comes up.
As an other option (once the keyboard is clean,...) look at getting
something like the iSkin range of Keyboard covers.
I use them on all the keyboards I have here (and laptops too). Although they
