inimicus Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 My keyboard and mighty mouse combo work fine, sir. Did you make sure your USB ports are fully working?

Chris Mills Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Unplugged my Aluminium keyboard from my PowerMac G4 and plugged it into my hackbook. Worked a treat on Kalyway.

aylamrin Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 Hang on, are you using the wired or wireless model?... Are you using a proper USB 2.0 port. Try changing the port if that works... You can reset correct file permissions from the Disk Utility... or here are a few commands ... Fire up terminal and type these commands... cd /System/Library/Extensions chown -R root:wheel * chmod -R 755 * Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/117895-apple-aluminium-keyboard-doesnt-work-in-my-hack-mac-im-on-1053-zephyroth-and-leo4all-1052-doesnt-too/#findComment-835758 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meowpard Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (...)do you have anything pluged into the 2 usb connectors on the keyboard ? Good point. Maybe there's too much powerconsumption by other device. (max. 500mA per sourceport) I plugged an optical mouse (Vivanco) into my (white) keyboards usb-ports and both stop working. Another mouse just worked fine. Same with different usb-sticks. edit: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=103364 posting #4-#8 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/117895-apple-aluminium-keyboard-doesnt-work-in-my-hack-mac-im-on-1053-zephyroth-and-leo4all-1052-doesnt-too/#findComment-868769 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua-mac Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 It is the aluminium firmware update combined with your bios. I had the same problem on an Asus P5K3 Deluxe after I updated the bios and applied the update. The only way round it was to roll back the bios. With the keyboard plugged in the motherboard froze while booting although it worked fine on real macs and had worked fine before I upgraded the bios.
