Same Layout on Macbook Air and Logitech MX Keys

Hi


So I already have a Macbook Air w/ Latin American layout:

and I recently bought a Logitech MX Keys Mini for my Mac Mini, which also have a Latin American layout:

as you can see, they are practically the same,

but in my Mac Mini when I go to Settings -> Keyboard I find that the Logitech keyboard appears with an ANSI layout and the layout is not the same as the Macbook Air, even when it say that is Latin American, so in my Macbook Air appears like this:

and in my Mac Mini appears like this:


and both keyboards have the same physical layout so I don't understand why I cannot use the exact same layout. This specially affect with the key "<" so when I press "<" in Macbook Air appears the < symbol, but in my Mac Mini appears the "|" symbol. So, is there any solution to this ? is a Logitech related problem? Any way to have exactly the same layout in both keyboards ? Just trying to get consistancy with both keyboards


I already try connecting trough BT and trough Logi Bolt receiver, but no changes. Also choose the ISO Layout in the assistant, but it's stuck at the ANSI Layout


Both Macbook Air and Mac Mini with M1.

Getting a machine to recognize the right ISO or ANSI "keyboard type" can sometimes be problematic. Hopefully Logitech will have an idea that works

If it cannot be fixed, you can make a custom layout with Ukelele which at least will fix the < key problem.

Hey there, sadel1! 


Thank you for posting in Apple Support Communities.


Since this is only happening with the Logitech keyboard and it’s happening on 2 different computers, it is likely something with that keyboard. We would suggest reaching out to Logitech to see if there is something that can be done so the computer can recognize the correct layout.


Kindest regards.
