Hmm, I tried that and it didn't work for me. I'm accessing a PC from a mac. I'm using the PC for a 3d program called Cinema 4D. This software works with a lot of shortcuts. E.g. Press 3 and drag the mouse around and you can rotate your scene. I am unable to do this using Team Viewer. I've turned 'Send key combinations' on and off, I've restarted on both ends, I've even logged into the app from a browser. Nothing works so far.
I use several remote methods from a Windows 10 computer. When I switch between TeamViewer, Remote Desktop, Hyper-V, my numlock.will toggle on and off.
I have not had any problems with my keys not working on remote systems.
This worked for me to
I have noticed that if I press home in TeamViewer the spacebar and the rest of the modifier keys don't work
The mentioned method works
Have this problem also, but not on the Beta version.
I don't know why or how, but I was able to bypass the problem.
I closed TeamViewer completely on my Mac. Then I accessed my account through the Teamviewer management console in Safari. I was asked to autorize the opening of the Teamviewer app and I did. And after I reconnected to the Windows computer through the app, all keys on my Mac keyboard were working in Windows.
Hope this helps!
I just sent them a note as well. On the Windows 10 machines the number pad does not seem to be working for numbers. Just the cursor commands (Enter may work, but didn't try it.)
I submitted this feedback to Teamviewer as well while testing out the Beta. Same scenario - OS X 10.12 to Windows 10 Build 1607. Anything that requires the use of the shift key does not seem to work.
