Q: New apple magic keyboard's function keys don't work
I am running Yosemite.
I just purchased the new keyboard and paired it with my Macbook Pro.
When I press the Volume up key, it just takes me to the dashboard. It doesn't matter if I press the fn key in the lower left or not.
The Volume down key shows the desktop.
I have updated all software on my mac, except going to El Capitan. I don't want to do that yet.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.5), Brand new Magic keyboard

Apple clearly states that the new keyboard, mouse, and trackpad require OS X 10.11. Either upgrade to El-Cap, live with the limitations you've discovered and continue on 10.10, or return the keyboard for a refund.
