Hi AppleVis.
I have been talking about my new keyboard in other posts and I love it.
The problem I am having is that there are no function keys and also there is no fn key.
Near the space bar I have control, option and a globe key.
How can I use function keys?

Found an fn key via voiceover help. I just cannot seem to make it work.
On my old keyboard I used to press the f 7 key, for example, to start or stop playback, but now this is not working.
I assume that the fn key plus one of the number row keys should trigger things but I cannot do it.
Actually I wouldn't need that if there just is a shortcut for being able to do playback start and stop and also next or previous track.
