Unless something creeped up on my while i wasn't noticing, "tab" is just for guitar/bass. It's a roundabout way to read music by diagramming fret and finger position, some say tab is cheating cause it's not really reading true music notation. The only thing i'm aware of for piano is a "fake book" or fake sheets which provide basic chord layout for a song, but "basic" is the key word, it doesn't provide all inflection and doesn't account for the original sound and style.

Here's something that may be of help.  Try this link:\n\nhttp://www.pitt.edu/~deben/freebies.html#Keyboard%20Classics\n\nThis link as free sheet music and simple to play.  It should play well on a key board.\n\nGOOD LUCK!

There is the one way of buying your keyboard and just watching a self-help tape or there is the option of spending a little extra on a keyboard with a step lighted teaching system where the keys actually illuminate as you are learning your song. They work great and help you from beginners stage to advance...real easy to get the hang of. Again, The only downside to this is that the price of these keyboards can run a little higher than the normal keyboards, but if your really into learning on your own they are worth the trouble.  Hope i was of some help!

Get a book that is easy to read and follow. I suggest "Instant Keayboard" by Gary Meisner. Follow the instructions. Be attentive when you hit a key. Remember the note. Practice, prctice, practice. If you really want to learn to play instrument(s), practice regularly ... even if it is for 15 minutes a day.\n\nThere are other easy to follow books to. Gary Meisner is something I like for beginners.

The Insert key (often abbreviated to INS) commonly found on keyboards is mostly used to switch between the two main modes of entering text on a computer. The first is Overstrike-mode, where the cursor, when typing, overwrites any text that is present on and after it's current location and which isn't used much anymore. Most Operating Systems only use insert-mode, where the cursor inserts characters at its current position between two other characters. \n\nThe Insert key would traditionally take you into insert-mode. However this is usually the default mode on modern Operating Systems. On Apple Macintosh computers the key is rebranded into a Help key. When you press the key the Help-functionality of the application will be launched. However when using commandline applications it still behaves like the Insert key for compatibility reasons. \n\nHOWEVER, I HATE IT AND I HAVE NEVER WANTED TO USE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is no "easy" way to tell. Key signatures are purely representative of the Ionic or major key. Any relative modes must be determined by analyzing the phrases and/or chords.\n\nYou're primarily looking for the root where the phrase resolves to (i.e. A in the case of A minor). This goes for jazz and classical music.

Keyboard or piano music usually is notated separately for both hands, one line with the violin key and the other line with the bass key.\n\nGuitar notes use the violin key lowered by an octave.\n\n\nApart from music notes, guitar music sometimes is written down as tabs, indicating the bound for each string.

Tabs and notation are ways of writing down which chords you are to play.  They are the simplified method of writing music for people with no musical training.  Chords are what you are playing if you play several notes together at one time.  \nCheck this out, it may help you.\nhttp://www.guitarnoise.com/article.php?id=78

first determine what key the music is being played in... then find your self some scales... penatonic seems to be the easiest... then match up the penatonic to the key of the song... and make it up from there...

Depends on the keyboard :-)\n\nBut in general, the Function key -- the top row, are aux keys.

Electric or acoustic?\nIf you don't know how to do it I suggest you take it to a music shop and get them to show you how. It's a lot easier to show someone than to just explain it. I figured out how to do it on my own--if you mess around with it a little you'll probably figure it out yourself.\nGood luck!
