How to use the Macally keyboard

The first time that you plug this keyboard into your Apple computer, the “Keyboard Setup Assistant” window will open. Please follow the instructions to identify the keyboard and use this keyboard correctly.

Then, choose “Apple Menu”, open “System Preferences…”, click on “Keyboard” and then click on “Change Keyboard Type…” to run the “Keyboard Setup Assistant” and re-identify the keyboard.

The top row keys on this keyboard can be used either as shortcuts (icons) to perform specific tasks or as function keys (F1-F15).

  • When the keyboard is connected to your Mac, all shortcut keys, except F4 (Show Launchpad) will work automatically. F4 (Show Launchpad) requires a quick setup as explained below:

  1. Open System Preferences, select Keyboard and then Shortcuts.
  2. In Shortcuts, select Launchpad & Dock and click on the Restore Defaults button. The Show Launchpad checkbox will be empty and none will appear behind Show Launchpad.
  3. Check the Show Launchpad checkbox and a blank field will appear behind Show Launchpad.
  4. In this field, type the following 3 keys simultaneously: Control-Shift-/ (forward slash). The 3 symbols are recorded in the line of Show Launchpad.
  5. When the setup is done correctly, you can open Launchpad by pressing the F4 key.

Standard function key mode
Press the “Fn” and “Esc” keys simultaneously to switch to standard F1-F15 function key mode. Fn Lock LED will turn On. When you want to switch back to shortcut key mode, press the “Fn” and “Esc” keys simultaneously. Fn Lock LED will turn off. Please note that when you start/restart your computer or simply unplug the keyboard from your computer, the top row keys will automatically restore to shortcut key mode.
To perform a secondary function without switching from shortcut key mode to function key mode and vice versa, press the “Fn” key with one of the top row keys simultaneously. For instance, when you are in shortcut key mode and you press the F11 key, volume will increase, but when you press the “Fn” and “F11” keys simultaneously, you will activate “Show Desktop” in Mission Control.*
You can also customize the F1-F15 function keys in Finder or Applications through “App Shortcuts” in “Keyboard” system preferences. See the Apple support page for more information about setting up shortcuts.
