How do you turn on the microphone for an iMac computer with a Microsoft keyboard?
IMAC (RETINA 5K, 27-INCH, MID 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.6), microsoft ergonomic keyboard
Apple's instructions for using dictation are in Use your voice to enter text on your Mac - Apple Support. You would need to find what Microsoft uses as the FN key which may require contacting MS for support on their product.
Go to: Apple > System Preferences > Dictation & Speech and turn Dictation On.
From there you should also be able to either Re-set or Customize the Shortcut.
Windows key is can be mapped as Apple Key, otherwise keyboard is the same
Thanks. I had tried the shortcut previously and that didn't work, but customizing did. I appreciate your insight!
You're welcome!
