Q: Wireless Keyboard - Need a Delete Key

I've recently bought the Apple Wireless keyboard.  Brilliant.  But I can't find how to make a delete button. 

There is the back space but nothing seems to work with it (alt/ctrl/cmd) for simple delete. 

Tried to find a way to programme the keys but haven't worked it out

 

any suggestions appreciated

    I simply used the CMD key plus the Backspace and it worked. Hope it helps

    Hi , I know it's few years to late but have just a iMac and it comes with the compact wireless keyboard so I struggled with this same problem. These posts helped me and I discovered new things.

    On my home screen/desktop fn+backspace don't work but command+backspace does.

    In apps like Photos both work but command+backspace don't ask questions.

    In word processing app like Notes: fn+backspace = Delete

                                                                 backspace = back 1 space

                                                           alt+Backspace = back 1 word

                                                 command+backspace= back 1 line

     

    Best is to press all keys and discover new combo's:-)

     

    Regards Hindenburg
