Hi all, When we recently went overseas, I bought a 1TB portable usb drive for ongoing back-ups of our MacBook Pro (I already had desktop drive backups at home). The MacBook Pro has a nominal 200GB HD and currently shows a capacity of 185.99GB with 136.38 on disk and 49.61GB available. I would

Yes okay Daniel, curiously, I did try it on my PowerBook and confirm that all the letters came out. Now all we need is for some curious person with an iMac or G5 to give it a go. Of course I must ask, why did you do this in the first place?? Wendy On 05 Sep 2006, at 19:38, Daniel Kerr

Yep, Daniel, I also get some missing characters. ABCDFGHJKLMNSVXZ I have an old G4 450MHz, with 10.4.7 However, looking where the 'missing' keys are on the board some of these correspond to different alphabet character on non English keyboard layout ... could that be part of it? Cheers,

Oh Daniel get more sleep! You just knew I would have to try it . In fact, when you hold down both shift keys, a bunch of keys go dead. Function keys F1 through F9 become non-responsive. Almost the entire top row of letter keys (Tab, Q, W, E, R, T, Y, I and O) go dead. The

For Daniel and the rest of us who just 'had to find out WHY' It turns out the double-shift-dead key roster is slightly different between the notebook built-in keyboard and the desktop keyboards. P and [ are double-shift-dead on the Apple USB desktop keyboards, but not on the

Yes, that was my second finding,..it's the whole entire top row of keys. Perhaps something to do with connections, that short out that top row when two modifier keys are pressed. Or maybe the computer just says If you're bored/silly/mad enough to press more then one shift key (which really isn't
