Does this keyboard support ctrl/shift/eject to turn off the display? Other non-Apple keyboards I've tried don't.

Yes it does. I was able to do this with my setup (two thunderbolt displays and a MBP). This keyboard is designed with Apple in mind, it's very compatible and a simple set up out of the box as well.

The key board stuck on the last letter of a word and continued to make that letter. If I pressed delete, it would stick on delete until everything I wrote was deleted. I took it to the Apple store and they exchanged it even though I had purchased it on Amazon, so I'm back in business. The new key board has been great!

It is used as the "Home" button found on iOS devices. When connected to a MacBook Pro it does not have a default setting but if you use the Fn+"Home" key combination it will become the escape key you are looking for. Hope that helps.

No. The keys are different. Especially the bottom row left and right of the space bar. Amazingly Apple does not put a Windows button on their keyboards!!

No, but I was not looking for this feature. There is a notch for the home button. I will say that I have been impressed with the overall quality of the product and it has been great when using as a second display for my iMac. It matches the design of the apple products better than anything else I found at this price point.

Hope you find this article helpful. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4740340?start=0&tstart=0 Keyboard does not come with key. You have to press n and select either or &#324;. Regards

No. There IS a magnet in the keyboard groove to give the mating a slight *snap* into place, but it will disengage almost instantly if you pick it up by the iPad.

Yes, I'm up to 10.10.1. The ONLY negative is that there is no indicator to tell you if the caps lock is on or off. They did provide software for the MAC that is supposed to show it on the screen, but I never got it to work.

There are 3-4 different backlighting modes...one of which is completely turned off. No issues entering bios after installation. Had this keyboard for about 6 months and I love it. The only thing that's missing is volume control, but can manage without that.

No, this keyboard does not have a right shift key.I've also experienced the problem mentioned before about the tablet slipping. Additionally, Ive not been able to use the keyboard beyond the initial charging. It . Seems to re-charge & I get an indication that it connects to the tablet via Bluetooth, but when I type nothing happens. I highly recommend you search for another product to meet your needs.

The case does not turn off the screen. I found this official tweet:@BelkinCares Does the QODE Ultimate Keyboard Case (F5L151ttBLK) turn off the iPad Air screen automatically when the case is closed? - 17 JanBelkinCares:@water604 Hi. This doesn't have that feature. However, it has a lot of other features. Check here: bit.ly/HLJpdL 05:21 PM - 17 Jan 14

Not as far as I know. What device are you using it with (a PC, tablet, phone)? It works natively when I use it. You can try unplugging it and powering off device, then restart the device and then plug it back in, making sure not to press any buttons while doing this. Hopefully it won't act funky after this.I'll suggest the obvious and say that you can also try pressing the blue "FN" key on the bottom left to activate/deactivate the designated alternate key functions, then try pressing the space bar and see if that works.

Short answer to your question is "No". It does not have a "fn" key. I am in the process of returning my recent purchase of this keyboard. Didn't work on iMac so it won't work on a MBP. Of course, if you NEVER use function keys, it's perfect.

If it's on the tablet default settings the screen will turn off. Unrelated to the keyboard. The keyboard does not affect the tablet whatsoever besides it adding a bluetooth keyboard.

Yes. There is a button on the right side of the keyboard to shut off the light.

The backlight stays on until you turn off the computer or you turn it off with the keyboard button. However, the lights are customisable with the included software, so all you would have to do is use a script to turn it off after some time. But it's probably just easier to push the button.

Yes, you have off, 3 levels of brightness and a cycle mode which goes basically over the course of several seconds goes from bright to dark and back to bright. A cool party trick, not so much useful in actual use. Basically you have 5 levels to go through, including off. I don't recommend off though, the dimmest setting suffices if you are contemplating night use. There is no bleeding of light from under the keys so it is not distracting. Even the medium level isn't too bad, though it is definitely brighter. The brightest mode is VERY bright, but not blindingly so. The LED's are very even and make it seem like the letters are floating :) I use my keyboard mainly in low-light, by the way. -edit- No problems entering BIOS.
