How can I set the key repeat rate if characters are typed too fast or too slow when I press a key on the keyboard in Mac OS X?
If you hold down a character key briefly, the character begins to repeat. You can set how long you must hold down the key before the character starts repeating and how fast it repeats once it starts.
To set how fast characters repeat, open System Preferences and click Keyboard, then click the Repeat Rate tab.
You can press a key to see how the settings work.
