I want to buy a MBP with retina display, can I get the keyboard in another language than the ones listed?

I would like to buy my new mac in the states, but want the keyboard to be in another language than the ones listed (english, french, spanish and japanese). Is this possible if I contact them?


Btw, I know that you can change the language in settings, but I want the physical other keyboard, not to just change it on the mac!

MacBook Pro with Retina display, Mac OS X (10.7.4)

She can order the macbook pro with any of the keyboards and pick it up. That they are offered as individual prices only means that you buy the computer,, and oddity items like portugese keyboard, is that price, they will install at time of purchase for no extra.


Have you actually done this? It does not sound correct. Those are wireless hardware keyboards. They cannot be installed on a MacBook. If you are ordering from the Apple online store, you can get a Macbook with US, French, Spanish, and Japanese keyboards only. And you can't "pick up" anything from the Apple online store.

hopefully they can do the same at the apple store 🙂 Thank you!


I think they can from a physical retail store, but you should ask them directly. Normally the kinds of keyboards available via special order should be those shown at the site below, but I have heard that some probably are only available outside the US.
