Hi, just set up my blue-tooth keyboard with my Mac mini.
I've been trying to figure out how to disable the fn keys check box thing.
I'm in System Preferences, under the keyboard tab.
I can find no check box about disabling said key any where.
I'm using the latest version of the OS.
Anyone have any ideas?

System Preferences-Keyboard and move right until you reach @use F1, F2 etc as standard function keys.

Hi, so from what apple support said. unless your using a apple keyboard, witch I'm not, that option won't be there.
That's kind of dum, I was trying to disable those keys on the Logitech k480 bluetooth keyboard.

Default behavior of FN keys on Logitech BT keyboards is controlled thru Logitech Control Center (LCC), which you can download from their website. It's been a few years since I used LCC, and I seem to remember it was not designed with accessibility in mind, but with patience I was able to toggle the FN function of my K760 BT keyboard using VO.

I tried the downloaded software, but I couldn't get past the installer.
Also when the keyboard is paired veia bluetooth, a message comes up about can't find wireless trackpad, or mouse.
