K800 For Mac



If anybody has a positive experience of compatibility the K800 wireless Logitech keyboard with MAC OS X Version 10.7.3?

I connected the KB to Mac mini with 'Unifing' (Logitech) software installed, but I do not have full functionality: I have no NumPad working. Some of keys respond not correctly. For example, there is no 'point' key at the Russian layout.

The first K800 I bought in 2014 is superior in every way. The biggest disappointment comparing the old and new K800: Opening the old K800’s battery cover revealed two regular AA batteries (Eneloop’s) that you could swap out if you wanted, instead of plugging the keyboard in to charge it. In that way it was 100% full-time wireless. Logitech K800 Review: The opinion of ComputerTechReviews. Even if you have to recharge the batteries every 10 or 15 days. K800 is irreplaceable if you want a keyboard to use. For example, with a living room PC from the sofa and in low light. It is also perfect as a regular keyboard.

I asked Logitech support for the driver and they told: 'All Logitech products works on standard OS drivers and if you have any problems with it it is better to contact Apple...'


Below - my correspondence with the Logitech support:

Logitech 02/28/2012 10:35 AM Dear Aeksei Thank you for contacting Logitech's Customer Care. Sorry, but no one has experience K800 on the MAC OS X Version 10.7.3 Best advise to you is to contact apple. They might help you with drivers. Kind Regards Denis M. Logitech Customer Care - Asia-Pacific


Aleksei Pariy 02/27/2012 08:47 PM Thank you for the prompt reply. First of all, I want to assure you that the keyboard itself is working. It works without any problems in Windows 7. Mac Mini also properly functioning, I believe. It had been just bought and tested true. But, the keyboard in Mac OS X ... When I try to change the keyboard type, system reports that the keyboard should be identified and invites to press the key, right to 'left shift' key. Then the system prompts to select the keyboard type of the three options:

- ISO European

- ANSI U.S.

- JIS Japan

None of these options lets work NumPad. I have no NumPad working. Some of keys respond not correctly. For example, there is no 'point' key at the Russian layout. Please let me know if anybody has a positive experience with the K800 an the MAC OS X Version 10.7.3?


Logitech 02/27/2012 03:38 PM Dear Aeksei Thank you for contacting Logitech's Customer Care. You can use your keyboard on Mac. Only we do not have Software for it, but it should work without any s/w. All Logitech products works on standard OS drivers and if you have any problems with it it is better to contact Apple of Microsoft. To test keyboard you can try it on different PC and if problem stays - it is hardware, if not - software. Kind Regards Denis M. Logitech Customer Care - Asia-Pacific

K800
If you want more freedom and less cable clutter on your desk, the Logitech K800 Wireless Illuminated Keyboard is a versatile option that strikes a nice balance of comfort, size and features. The keyboard has a streamlined slim design that’s thin on the front and tapered towards the rear, giving it a wedge shape that allows it stand upright whenever it’s not in use to save space -- not exactly a quality you’d look for in a keyboard but can come in handy for those with limited real estate on their desks.

This keyboard is undoubtedly the best in its field ... it's also the only product in its field for the time being. So if you're looking for a wireless backlit keyboard then you simply don't have a choice, the K800 is the product for you.

The K800 is a great wireless keyboard for home or office use. The backlit keys are good enough for you to decipher the keys in pitch black, but at the same time aren’t bright enough to blind you. T
