Mac. E-Prime. Keyboard. HELP!

Hi Anne-Wil!

Thank you for getting back to me. Yes. I made sure to define the allowable 
response as "h" in this case. I'm really so confused about all this. It 
runs fine on a PC. Its driving me absolutely mad. I don't understand why it 
will pick up the key presses when I input the subject # and session # but 
as soon as I try to move past the Introduction screen using the space bar, 
it does nothing. 

So can I ask, you run EPrime through Bootcamp and have been able to use the 
keyboard as a response device successfully then?

Best,
Mel
