Can you use this connected via USB for your PC like a standard USB keyboard should you need to access CMOS etc, use it outside of OS?

No idea what you just said lol but I don't think you can, I never tried. I think you can only connect it via Bluetooth.

1. The device has a USB cable but I believe it's only used for charging but not for USB signal connection. So your answer is no.2. However, the BT adapter can be used to link it with the PC via BT instead of USB connector.

It actually has a bt receiver you can pull out of the back and plug into your usb. Be careful, though, there's the usb port and a little housing that keeps it clicked in, I broke the housing just pulling it out.

I don't know since I have a PC. Works well in mine and all I had to do was connect to my computer like any other keyboard.

Yes. Looking through other reviews regarding this keyboard, it appears others are successfully using it with their Mac OS equipment(I cannot give first hand knowledge as I don't not own one)

No the keyboard does not work just using the usb cable. You have to connect the keyboard to bluetooth.

I have connected keyboards, mice, external hard drives, and combo keyboard and touchpads to it. All worked fine. It has effectively two USB ports--a regular one and an on the go port that will also let you access it from a computer. If you need more than two USB connections you will need a hub, and the advice to use a powered hub is good, especially if the additional devices are like a network card, bluetooth dongle, or dongle for a wireless keyboard.

Comes with USB connector so, no. Don't like this product for computer either. Keys feel flimsy to touch & there are no directional keys. Does not facilitate rapid numerical entry.

most keyboards which have a mini USB connection can be used. The only key is they must be android compatible

No, there is no USB port in this keyboard. Those only exist in high end keyboards.

It's a standard USB keyboard, worked fine with my desktop & laptop.Whatever you connect it to, consider the possibility of a kid pulling it away across the room - a laptop is lighter and easier to pull off the table this way. (Taping some of the cord to the table might help. Also, taping the keyboard's end of cord to back of the keyboard will protect the connection there.)

It's a little touchy with USB keyboards. Some work, some don't, and I haven't found one that works with all apps. If you have a keyboard you want to connect, try using the front USB port.

The keyboard plugs into a standard USB port, so I don't see why not. I use it on my PC, so can't say for sure, but USB is USB, I think.

W7 will bark about that, I opted to ignore the driver and simply plug it in as a USB keyboard, it registers as a gaming keyboard. Caveat: I bought it to have a mechanical keyboard and use it for coding and writing rather than gaming.

I use a powered USB hub. This allows me to connect "any" USB keyboard. with no dropout or speed issues. I can also connect external hard drives or thumb drives as desired.

Since this pad has 1 USB port you can use any keyboard that takes a USB connection. This works well until you need to use the USB drive for something else.

I have not tried doing that but I can tell you that I've plugged this into front-facing USB ports on my tower PC and it works just fine. This is a great keyboard, feels great since I went from an ergonomic 4000 to this.

Yes, you can use it as an external keyboard...just make sure you have a USB port to connect it.
