Is there a way to make the F19 function key on my Magic Keyboard be a delete key? When using the numeric keys it would be helpful to have a delete key close by.

No, I don't believe there is. However, you can create app keyboard shortcuts, Apple explains this in Create keyboard shortcuts for apps on Mac - Apple Support

If you don't find a way give a Macro app a try. Go to the App Store and search for "macro" and you'll get a number of options. There are a number of free apps that you an try since you're only looking to change the F9 key.


I use Keyboard Maestro which is probably the most powerful macro app available and more than you need for F9.
