Is there a Backspace key or can one of the F keys be programmed for Backspace? I only see a Delete key where Backspace would normally be.

Delete functions as the backspace key. This is like it is on a regular mac.

Delete in mac keyboards is identical to backspace key. But there's no delete key (in normal pc keyboards).

There is a backspace and other multi-directional keys on the Logitech K811. I have never seen their F1 key nor used it. This keyboard is, hands-down, the best bluetooth keyboard I have tried (3 so far, including Brookstone and Apple).

Hi - The backspace key is located in the lower right hand corner of the keyboard. You can space back, forward and up and down with these keys. Good luck

My delete key reversed itself after 3 months. Now it only deletes backwards! Then the arrow keys quit. Now the illumination keys don't work.

This keyboard makes interesting use of the function key. If you press the Delete key, which sits where backspace normally is, you erase the keystroke to the left of the cursor, and keep moving that direction. But if you hit func+delete, you repeatedly delete characters that were to the right of the cursor, while it stays in the same place. func+ctrl+delete erases whole words that were to the right, ctrl+delete whole words to the left, and so on. very functional.

Not a problem at all. The only problem is the keyboard dose not have a back space key?

You use the Fn key. There is s function on the top right on one of the F keys you press along with holding down the Fn key.

It sounds like the Microsoft keyboard software got installed or upgraded. The F Lock button will resolve this issue, but you have to do that every time you restart the keyboard. The permanent fix is to install the MS keyboard software and then re-assign each function key from the default action back to the Function action as a Macro. Example: F1 becomes help and F2 becomes undo. Most of these functions still work within popular applications when they are functions keys.You have to do the same thing with newer laptops regarding the top row of keys.

You can do all the shortcut keys with cmd key + x (cut), c(copy) etc. Also this keyboard has the cut, copy, paste, undo keys on the left side which I used all the time which saves a lot of keystrokes. This has been a great keyboard and my wrist pain has gone away totally since switching to this one.

The cover does have 1 key covering both the return key and the backslash key above it. It does not keep you from using both keys individually and as normal. They are conjoined because when you type in Hebrew you can use either key with the shift key to write a backslash. When used without the shift key, even with the Hebrew keyboard, it will function as a return key. Honestly, I hadn't even noticed they have the same key covering until you asked this question, so it has never been an issue.

For all you mac people here, i suggest downloading ControllerMate, which i was able to configure to support most of the special keys (sometimes with my own scripts rather than the intended purpose). Its not free, but its worth it to have this sexy keyboard work properly with my mac

There are instructions included with the keyboard. However your software has to be able to keep up with key combinations that are entered way faster than any human can. My one game that uses macros was not able to keep up with it and the key combination was always only half entered.

The "delete" key label is also standard on a Mac US-English keyboard, not "backspace"... so their label is in keeping with that found on other Apple products.

Exactly as the pictures (especially the 3rd picture) shown, the backspace is a larger key about twice the size of a regular key, and the enter is NOT a L-shaped key, just like the backspace key.

Though it says "delete" (most likely due to space on the key), it does both, and backspace is the primary function of that key when used with an ipad. To backspace does not require a keystroke combination, just position your cursor using either the arrow keys or by touching the screen, then hit delete. To actually forward delete letters, you must use the combination fn + delete. (I have repeatedly tested both functions on the actual Ultrathin keyboard using an iPad Mini this morning. Using the left arrow key as presented by another user is unnecessary to backspace, the delete key alone is sufficient. And using the right arrow + delete continues to backspace, not forward.)

If you press the star key on the top of the keyboard below the silver 3 key you may find some info. The 5 silver keys 1-5 are programmable, I believe. The sliding black key between letters G and H enlarges or shrinks items on the screen. The others that have icons on them are straight forward. I don't know what the silver arrows by the wrist rest do. I was very unhappy that it came without a manual.

Just hit the backspace button and it erases the last letter put in.Now, will someone tell me what to do when it tells you you're using an incorrect password (and you're not) and it won't let you in to change the password or do anything else. I've lost all the addresses I put in mine.

when you are typing in information and you make a typing error just hit "backspace" for however many times you need to. Otherwise I am not sure what you are doing. I will be glad to try and help if you give me more information.

The apostrophe is the fn key (blue) and letter L ( if youo look under the L you will see the ') not sure waht you mean about mouse pad unless yu mean the indentation on bottom left? You can do ome navigation via the updown left and right keys though

I'm not sure as I don't use those "non function" keys. Keep in mind, to use the traditional function key you have to hold the activate function key at the bottom left corner. If you don't, you can be in the middle of a game, for example, and suddenly activate a media player. It's mapped in reverse to the traditional keyboard. I'll try to test it tonight.
