Very frustrated that the caps lock key does not work in the VM running OS 10.6 using an Apple Magic Keyboard in Parallels 11.Tried keyboard system preferences in the VM to try to locate the bluetooth keyboard to try and sync but the virtual machine could not detect it. All other keys seem to work in the virtual machine including the shift key so I can create capitals but I need the CAPS LOCK key to function. Any ideas?
Hello Mark, - Open Terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal) - Type in the following command and hit 'Enter': defaults write 'com.parallels.Parallels Desktop' 'HID Host Hook.CAPSLOCK Sync' -bool false - This command will disable automatic CapsLock synchronization between Host OS and Guest OS and will allow them to have different capslock states. - Also try to reinstall Parallels Tools and check if it works!
I assume you enter this in the Terminal on the VM. Tried it and did not work. Does this get entered on the Host machine Terminal?
