Mac Sequoia – No modifier keys/no Keyboard

[Dariusz]

Hey

Just installed NoMachine on my Mac M1 + latest OS.

When I go to keyboard/shortcuts/modifies/there is no keyboard here.

I cant configure modifier keys on my Mac.

Can any1 help? I’m on Windows all latest.

Thanks!

Check that you have a keyboard attached to your Mac mini. That way you can see the shortcuts configurations in settings.

So the NoMachine wont simulate keyboard? I need a physical one ?

Of course the keyboard is simulated, or it wouldn’t work, but the fact the OS hides that setting if a physical keyboard is not attached doesn’t depend on NoMachine 🙂

Hey
Ok I’ve got physical keyboard.

It seems like I can now map the keys ctrl/alt/windows key, but none of it works

I cant ctrl-c, ctrl-v etc etc, any idea how to make it work? Pretty impossible to use NoMachine and develop apps on mac without modifier keys.

Hi, can you enable grab the keyboard in the connection menu (connect first, open the menu with ctrl-alt-0), proceed to Input)?

Keyboard
Grab the keyboard input – Ticking the box disables the capturing of some system key combinations allows you to use those shortcuts in the remote desktop.
