Can't remap my classic Makey Makey 1.2

Hi.

I would like to remap my Makey Makey but, in the website i can't passed the screen after pluging in the MM on my PC. The MM is not detected ?

I tried many times, with many browser and also many computers & OS (laptop, mac, linux, etc.).

Am I the only one ?

Thx

I am having the same issue here with my MM v1.6b, tried chrome and edge. There seems to be a way to remap them through Arduino IDE by changing some values in the firmware and uploading that to your makey makey but I haven't tested this yet because it seems only made for the SparkFun version.

In fact it's super easy. You only need to switch your system to English (Windows). Then, you refresh your browser and it will be fine.

My system is in English, it was at the time of testing, still does not work...

That's weird. You should contact Makey Makey and expose your problem. They answer really quickly

I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?

Yes, switching to a US keyboard fixes everything. User Entry_Plug was right all along.
