How do I know if I have a UK keyboard or an international one?

Hi,


I just bought a new macbook and I forgot to ask the staff for an international keyboard.

How do I know if I have a uk keyboard or an international one?


Thank you!

The serial number is written on the outside of the box. Plugging that SN in may return some insight:

If you bought in from a brick & mortar why not call, or look on the email order if bought on line.


You can also make changes to preferences

You can go to System Preferences > International > Input menu, check the box for Keyboard Viewer, then click the flag in the menu bar, select Show Keyboard Viewer, and press the option key, shift-option, etc., to see what shortcuts/symbols are available.
