    Hello, I've got some problems with my keyboard - the new slim wireless one, shipped with my new iMac 20".
    The problem is that cmd - tab and brightness up/down, exposé and dashboard buttons to the left stops working sometimes. Also the F9-button on my mouse(via USB Overdrive) stops working, making it probably a software error. :)
    The only solution is to log out and then in again.
    Anyone know what's wrong?

    (I also can't use cmd - < to switch windows within the active application, which have never worked in this installation)

    Sorry, can't help you, but I have a similar problem.

    Just got the wireless keyboard and the Function keys don't do what they're supposed to. ie, F1 & F2 don't control brightness, F3 doesn't control dashboard, F10 & F11 don't control volume etc.

    Tried changing them in preferences, but no joy.

    Any advice?

    It seems that the drivers aren't installed. Did you get a CD with the keyboard? Install it. :) It worked without the disc for me, but however. At least it sound like OSX don't know that you have the new keyboard.

    Besides, my problems are gone after the the latest software update for iMacs. :)
