MacOS Karabiner-Elements不生效解决方法

每回MacOS一升级，总会遇到Karabiner-Elements不生效的问题，所以统一总结一下

Karabiner-Elements

Karabiner Element，作用是键盘按键改键。

我通常用于把右 Command 和 Capslock 键利用起来，避免快捷键冲突，简单 note，详见sorrycc的《我的快捷键技巧》

• “右 Command”改成F19: 切换到Complex modifications --> Add rule --> “Change caps_lock to command+control+option+shift.” --> 打开文件~/.config/karabiner/karabiner.json 把caps_lock替换成right_command
  
• 我试了后, 把“右 Command”改成F19,发现我右 Command+delete还是经常用的，所以接着在Karabiner Element 的“Simple modifications” 把 “right_option” 改成了 “left_command”。
• 另外参考Mac 自定义应用程序快捷键配置了Mac app，比如Chrome和iterm3的一些快捷键。免费，开源。

MacOS 14.4.1 Karabiner-Elements不生效

额外把’karabiner_grabber’ full disk access rights makes it work. However, I had to restart Karabiner twice afterwards and 重启电脑.

MacOS 10.14.6 Karabiner-Elements不生效

遇到了macOS 10.14.6 Karabiner-Elements 疑似无法正常使用的问题
参考Does not work on MacOS Catalina #1867

For some reason the permission prompt is not showing up for me when I open Karabiner-EventViewer. And EventViewer says “EventViewer failed to observe keyboard devices”. So I cannot find out a way to use saagarjha’s method as stated above.

1. add karabiner_grabber and karabiner_observer to “Security & Privacy > Privacy > Accessibility” apps.
2. And after sudo killall-ing both processes, Karabiner-Elements is working for me again.

sudo killall karabiner_grabber
sudo killall karabiner_observer

In order to fix, I needed to add the following entries to the Security & Privacy > Privacy > Input Monitoring list:

/Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/Karabiner-Elements/bin/karabiner_grabber
/Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/Karabiner-Elements/bin/karabiner_observer

其他改键工具

Some other tools that should work for you are:

1. hidutil: macOS-native remapping tool. See MX Keys not active in logi options+ via bluetooth #3082 (comment). Only work for simple modifications
2. skhd: https://github.com/koekeishiya/skhd.
3. Hammerspoon or BetterTouchTool.
