I'm a happy user of the - never having to change batteries is quite liberating. However, this keyboard lacks a few things, including dedicated Scroll Lock and Num Lock keys, that you may find on other keyboards. I don't use those two keys often, but I do use them while working in Excel. After some trial and error, and some Googling, I figured out how to turn them on and off.
(Because there aren't any physical keys, there aren't any indicator lights for these keys' states. Instead, you have to look at Excel's onscreen indicators, at the lower right corner of the worksheet.) Scroll Lock: Press Shift+F14.
Num Lock: Press Shift+Clear (on the numeric keypad). I'm not sure if these shortcuts work on other Logitech keyboards or not.

crarko adds: The hassle of dealing with batteries has kept me away from wireless keyboards all along; this may just change my mind. I also just discovered this: if I turn on Mouse Keys while the aluminum Apple board is plugged into my MacBook Pro, it forces the laptop's keyboard to act as if I'd enabled Num Lock. And this MBP doesn't even have the numbers on the keys. I didn't realize it was possible to get into that Num Lock mode on MacBooks since the 2009 models.
My MBP went to sleep after I'd unplugged the keyboard, and I found I couldn't log in to wake it up, because I didn't know how to disable this Num Lock feature on my MBP. Some of the letter keys were typing numbers. I fetched the keyboard and plugged it in before I realized I could just smack the Option key 5 times to turn off Mouse Keys. Oddly, the MBP's keyboard doesn't type numbers when I use its own Option key to toggle Mouse Keys. Anyway, I seem to have stumbled on a way to enable Num Lock on my MBP keyboard, but can't rediscover it. Searching the web turns up lots of options, none of which work for me, such as Shift + Clear, Option Clear, Fn Clear.
Cheap Logitech Solar Keyboard K750 Dk For Mac Work With Pc
The reason for this comfort is twofold. The first is the incurve. While most keyboards dip heavily in the middle the K750 keys are more subtle – as if you’d pressed your finger tips gently into a soft surface. This makes them cushion your fingers better and you feel a grip for the keys earlier. The second element is the action of the keys themselves. For such a thin keyboard there is a remarkable amount of travel, not too much (about 5mm), and the keys then quietly spring back in such a manner than your fingers don’t lose contact with the key on the way back up.
The effect this creates is an ability to dance from key to key, there is no stabbing action from one to another. For touch typists this is perfect because the extra duration of contact means your fingers spend less time airborne meaning less chance of losing your positioning and consequently making mistakes.
Heavy typists will also be keen to learn that the traditional keyboard weakspot, the space bar, is just as well balanced as the rest of the keys. Needless to say this review was written on the K750 and while it may be little over 1,000 words, I would have been happy to go on for another 1,000. All of which doesn’t mean the K750 is completely flawless. Google answers: internal modem for mac. With its design you’d think it would be targeting an Apple audience, but Logitech has yet to offer Mac drivers. It will work on a Mac, but without the useful Solar App. Furthermore at £69.99 the K750 isn’t cheap. That said for what is on offer I wouldn’t say it is extortionate, particularly for heavy typists.
”’Verdict”’ The Logitech K750 Solar Keyboard is a wonderful example of smart design, innovation and practicality all combining to make a class leading product. Given the low power consumption of keyboards it is surprising in hindsight that a truly independent, high class wireless design had yet to surface. Now it has we’ll find it very hard to go back to wires or batteries. It is hard to admit, but we’re genuinely excited about this keyboard.
Take one home and we’re sure you’ll feel exactly the same.
