Using an Apple magic keyboard (Japanese issue) with Windows 11?

[Kenny202]

Long shot here but give it a whirl. I bought an apple magic keyboard (Japanese / English) off marketplace for my Ipad. Works a treat. As a bonus I was hoping to use it with my PC but many of the shift / symbol keys in different areas to whats shown on the keyboard. Mainly symbols above the numbers (+, ( , ) ,* etc etc. When I connect to the Ipad it actually asks if I want to use it in Japanese or English layout. Selecting English works perfectly. Just wondering if someone knows of a setting or something I can change on the PC to make it recognize the keyboard correctly.

 

Yes its Japanese English, yes I am an idiot, yes buyer beware, pay peanuts get monkeys etc etc. No motherly advice please, just someone that may have a solution thanks  🙂

It’s rather strange to ask windows questions on a dedicated Apple products forum.

Better to ask in a different forum as you are likely to have more information available.

Well it is an Apple Keyboard albeit using with a Windows PC and the forum is Apple products. One each way bet really and you know good old Asean Now, someone will be along to tell you you are in the wrong forum no matter where you post 🙂 I will give it another day here, cancel the post and try the general computer area. I doubt I will get an answer anyway really....strange question generally
