According to a Mac forum on Excel 2011 for Mac, the only way I can fix my cell pointer movement so it properly uses the arrow keys, I have to do "Shift"-"Control"-"Command" F14. Where is the F14 key? I have a MacBook Pro and an Extended Keyboard, both of which were purchased mid 2010. Thank you for any help you can provide.

The original poster has a valid question. Where is the F14 and F15 keys. Apple obvious has a key combination for this on the Macbook Pro (With out using an external keyboard) being that in keyboard settings F14 and F15 are set to for brightness control. I find it difficult to believe that a macbook is set to function keys it does not have access to or is not set for another key combination right out of the box.
When you go to your preferences and are looking for a setting and see this, it certainly makes it confusing if you can only use this with an external keyboard.
As for the external keyboards, you can get a mac keyboard with the extended F keys. Unfortunately, that does not help those that did not buy the external keyboard.
Macs do not have a F14 key. You can make your F key shortcuts by going to System Preferences/Keyboard/Keyboard Shortcuts.

After many trials and tribulations I found that the system preferences are showing inaccurate information.
The brightness control is actually F1 and F2 for lowering and brightening your screen.
Now the question is why does my system preferences show inaccurate information?
FWIW, my external Apple USB keyboard has f1 - f19 keys accross the top.
