I am not sure what you are trying to do. Are you just looking for a way to have your wireless components not get lost? Also, there should not be a practical reason to replace a Logitech keyboard with an Apple one unless you prefer the touch of the Apple keyboards. On 4 January 2018 at 10:20, jeff

Hey guys thanks for the responses. It sounds like using the keyboard with mail is just the best way to go, as if you need to toggle the trackpad voiceover on and off you are just defeating the purpose of speeding things up.
