ericrcan Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I bought this for my PC, but now that I am using OS X i want to use it on here now. It works great, except the Media keys do not work right. There are 8 of them, and this is how it works: Previous: works fine Next: works fine Volume Up: does nothing Volume Down: does nothing Play/Pause: volume down Stop: mute Mute: does nothing Change Keyboard Color: works fine. is there anyway I can remap the keyboard to get it work work right? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtotho Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 perhaps go to saitek's site and look for drivers for mac, if they have them. Also try system preferences-keyboard and mouse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericrcan Posted March 14, 2008 Author Share Posted March 14, 2008 I have tryed both of those, and i still cant find anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtotho Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 dont count on it working then. Luckily i got the sleeker, nicer looking, Saitek Eclipse I Keyboard. Only special keys it has is Volume up, down, mute, and the level of LED on the keyboard. My volume keys work correctly i may add. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zonker Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 dont count on it working then. Luckily i got the sleeker, nicer looking, Saitek Eclipse I Keyboard. Only special keys it has is Volume up, down, mute, and the level of LED on the keyboard. My volume keys work correctly i may add. I have the same board with a logitech USB trackball mouse. Both work flawlessly. I have the Antec 900 case as well. Great looking case with excellent cooling. I put a blue LED 120mm fan in the side that makes it look even better.

ero Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 *bumping this thread* I have the same keyboard, and exactly the same issue. Maybe someone has thought of a solution by now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtotho Posted June 1, 2008 Share Posted June 1, 2008 i would look for solutions for getting the media keys working on any keyboard, i am sure it is more than just a problem with this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ero Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 That's a good point, I will google around. THanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ero Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I've been googling and googling, so far I've found a tool called Ukelete that remaps keyboard keys, but it doesn't seem to do media keys, or I'm not selecting the right layout. If someone has experience with this program, please drop me a line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikahBrock Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I too have this keyboard and I've researched it quite a bit. Also trying different keymapping software to re-map the keys. There are not, as of yet, any workarounds for this keyboard. Saitek doesn't have any mac drivers for any of their products and seeing as how they just got bought out by madcats (boo!) I'm faily certain we won't be seeing any . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
