The 'for mac' doesn't allow you to forward delete (`fn` + `delete`) and doesn't have a forward delete button like the 'normal' one. The `normal` one does swap the `fn` and `control` keys on the lower left which can be annoying when you first start using the keyboard.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.On the Mac version of this keyboard, fn+delete will NOT delete to the right. Instead, ctrl+D does it. If you're using this keyboard with Microsoft Word, there is a way to assign this command to a more convenient key combination, such as shift+delete. How to do it: In Word, 1. Go to Tools/Customize Keyboard. 2. In the Categories box, scroll down to All Commands and click it. 3. In the Commands search line, enter "backspace" (without quotes) and press Enter. 4. Click "TcidBackspace." 5. Click in the "Press new keyboard shortcut" line and press shift+delete. While you're there, you might also search for "delete" and assign option+delete to the command DeleteBackWord, which deletes the word to the left of the cursor, and assign command+delete to DeleteWord, which deletes the word to the right of the cursor.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The latest version of K380 (purchased in July 2021) still does not delete forward with "fn+delete". The alternative way to delete forward is "ctrl+D".
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello, the Mac version of the K380 will have specific dedicated Mac keys, such as CMD, on the keyboard layout.
