Is the Keyboard.h library installed by default because I can't seem to be able to do #include <Keyboard.h> . I have looked in the libary manager but couldn't seem to find it. Any help on this? I just get: fatal error: Keyboard.h: No such file or directory
Keyboard.h (and Mouse.h) only works on devices that use the ATmega32u4 processor, like the Leonardo or Micro. See: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/MouseKeyboard
Hello John, I have a Micro and everything set right. Strange, the "Library Manager" function shows "No Internet connection available..." allthough I´m writing online into the forum at the moment!? It took me hours searching, but just can´t find a "Keyboard.h zip". Please help! Thanks kindly! Marc
Keyboard.h is built into the IDE. It is not a library you install.
I have an Arduino UNO R3, I can not load the keyboard.h to my project, it always sends me the following error message:

and the proyect all ready have the '#include <Keyboard.h>'
I'm ussing the following code:
#include <Keyboard.h>
#include <HID.h>
// constants won't change. They're used here to
// set pin numbers:
const int buttonPin = 2; // the number of the pushbutton pin
const int ledPin = 13; // the number of the LED pin
// variables will change:
int buttonState = 0; // variable for reading the pushbutton status
void setup() {
// initialize the LED pin as an output:
pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);
// initialize the pushbutton pin as an input:
pinMode(buttonPin, INPUT);
Keyboard.begin();
}
void loop() {
// read the state of the pushbutton value:
buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
// check if the pushbutton is pressed.
// if it is, the buttonState is HIGH:
if (buttonState == HIGH) {
// turn LED on:
digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);
Keyboard.print("You pressed the button ");
}
else {
// turn LED off:
digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
}
}
I am currently having the same problem with an Arduino/Genuino Micro. I have used this specific board with the HID keyboard interface about a year or so ago without any problems, and now it doesn't work.
I'm using Arduino IDE v1.6.13

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.
Can you please post a copy of your sketch, using code tags?
They are made with the </> icon in the reply Menu.
See section 7 http://forum.arduino.cc/index.php/topic,148850.0.html
I think you will find the library only works for the Leonardo
Thanks.. Tom.. 
I had the same problem using Flora
This worked for me:
- Tools > Boards > Boards Manager
- Install TeeOnArdu (Then select that board from Boards Manager)
- Tools > USB Type > Serial, Keyboard, Mouse < Joypad
- Upload and run code again (might need to restart IDE)
Good luck!
