Pairing with HP wireless keyboard

[aoyama]

I have the latest Macbook Pro and thinking of buying the LED Cinema 24 - is it possible to pair an HP wireless keyboard with my macbook? I cannot get used to the latest mac wired/wireless keyboard.

Thanks -
A.

it should work fine if the keyboard has a usb dongle. however i would get used to the apple keyboard and you will be much happier in the end. it doesnt take long to get use to and you will then have the proper keys in the proper places since they will differ.

good luck

Using HP mini wireless keyboard with Macbook pro

Same problem here.

I have one HP mini wireless keyboard, and seems to be impossible to pair with my Macbook pro. The system detects the dongle as wireless interface, and sometimes tries to pair with the system pressing the key next to left shift but didn't worked.

I've tried to see any information at HP.com, but I got nothing.
Seems like that product is deprecated and Mac doesn't provide anything useful.

This is my keyboard, Amazon.com: HP Wireless Mini Keyboard: Electronics
and this is the interface id: HP8EE64B

Please, help.

Here's your answer from HP:

Compatibility

Microsoft® Windows® XP/Vista™/7

It's not compatible with OS X. You might get lucky and have it work somewhat, but it's really designed for Windows. You can buy a nice Apple wireless keyboard for $69 direct from Apple.
