Mac Boot Recovery Mode Bluetooth Keyboard

I edit Broadcast TV shows and I have a dual boot MAC Pro so I can run both Final Cut Studio and Media Composer. I'm tired of having to swap keyboards when I need to change edit systems. The Keyboard cover solves that issue and had the added bonus of protecting the keyboard from my mishaps with coffee during long edit sessions. So I now get by with one keyboard that I can't fry with my Starbucks. It's a win-win situation. You gotta love that!

This mahine is the most powerfull MAC I have ever purchased. The only thing that I do not like about it. Is the it does not come with recovery discs.

I decided it was time to finally make recovery drives for several computers in the house, as well as a utility drive with several boot up images and diagnostics. This 5-pack fits the bill perfectly.

Love the feel of this very compact bluetooth keyboard. Great if you're a windows or mac user. Very easy to set up.

Both the keyboard and mouse are easy to set up via Bluetooth and the Logi Bolt Receiver. I love how I could customize the keyboard with the Logi Options + Desktop App. It's also easy to have them switch and work with both my personal Mac and work computer (Mac.) the mouse is also very comfy and I don't even need a mousepad for it to work well which is convenient

I have a 2019 Mac Mini that always had weak bluetooth reception for my mouse & keyboard. I bought is as "refurbished" and this is probably why someone returned it in the first place. Anyway, to get to the point, I ordered 4 solutions from Amazon and this Mini USB adaptor was the only device that fixed my problem. I'm using that same keyboard & mouse to type this review. Even though there wer no instructions on the device, I did plug it in, turn off the Bluetooth reception in the Mac Settings, used a wired mouse to turn Bluetooth back on again and it has worked perfectly for the past 3 weeks. My frustration has ended!!! Thanks StarTech!

Best keyboard IMO. Keys feel nice, Mac or Windows keys, Bluetooth and/or USB connection (programmable to match mouse), 3 device (easy to select) option, excellent battery life + spot to place your phone. Literally everything one can ask for.

I bought two of these for two different older Win10 computers with spinning hard drives that were degrading, making the computers very slow. First was my wife's nearly 9 year old laptop. First attempt at cloning drive failed because the computer shut itself off during the process. Be sure to go into power settings and disable automatic shutdown or sleep mode. Once I did that the cloning succeeded. Second PC was a desktop with a 250GB spinning drive. The SSD is 1 TB. Using the cloning wizard, it wanted to create a 217 GB Windows partition (same size as it was on the spinning drive) and it wanted to blow up the recovery partition to well over 700 GB. Well, that's stupid! It should have kept the recovery partition the same size and increased the Windows partition as much as possible. So I halted the cloning and restarted it in manual mode, which allows changing the partition sizes. In manual mode the cloning software made the correct suggestion: it kept the recovery partition and two small mysterious partitions the same sizes that they were on the hard drive, and it increased the Windows partition to 871 GB. So I accepted those sizes and did the cloning. Why couldn't the wizard have figured that out? Bottom line - pay attention during the cloning process to make sure the wizard isn't doing something dumb. Both computers are now running much faster than before. My wife is delighted with her new laptop. She says it is now super-fast. B&H sale price was great with free two day delivery.

Best upgrade for my Mac Pro systems boot drive.

Upgraded to the new Mac mini M2 since my old Mac mini would take over 5 minutes to boot up to the Finder.
