[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1792178, member: 46727"] Assuming that your MacBook or MacBook Pro is a UK model with built in UK style keyboard, the only way that I know to have both the external and internal layouts the same and work simultaneously is to purchase a UK Apple wired or wireless keyboard. I used an external wired keyboard for years with a MacBook that I previously owned. Both layouts matched and worked together because the external keyboard was an Apple keyboard. Apple hardware for the most part is proprietary and designed to work with genuine Apple devices. PC keyboards do work with Apple products but there are trade offs. I guess you know that Logitech is a large supplier of devices that are designed specifically to work with Apple products, however, your Logitech keyboard was designed for PCs. That may be the difference. [/QUOTE]
