Hey all, i'm just wondering how I go about reprogramming the functions of the F buttons, as I want to change the ones which don't have a picture on them to do something, like on the macbook F11 clears the screen, which isn't a function on the new keyboard.

Oh and also, I've noticed the enter button on the macbook keyboard has been replaced by an 'alt' button which is far more handy for spaces, is there anyway I can swap this around on my macbook keyboard because I don't use the small enter button.

Thanks!

System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts. That should let you reprogram keys or key combinations.

AFAIK, Expose functions should still work with your mac and an external Apple keyboard. Expose shortcuts will show up in the Keyboard Shortcuts panel.

Hey, thanks for your reply. Only thing is, in there I can only change the shortcuts for the keyboard on the mac itself, which isn't necessarily what I want to do, as I want to change the shortcuts on the wireless keyboard.

Thanks
