This post is regarding the old Macbook Air with no visible # symbol on the Keyboard. On new Macbook Airs – it’s simply Shift-3
Okay, this is a bit ‘niche’-ey. I have a US Macbook air with UK Keyboard layout and have spent a few months passively looking for the ‘hash’ key, whilst sort of admitting to myself that I’d probably bought a £1200 machine with no DVD drive, no changeable battery and NO HASH KEY.
But.. about that one, I was wrong… There is a hash key!
Anyone with a US Macbook Air on UK Layout : Ctrl-Alt-3
Finally!

Hey! I noticed you added me on Twitter (shift_)
What WordPress plugin did you use for the “Share this” social bookmarking icons?!
Hi Anthony,
It’s called Sociable. It’s available at the wordpress plugin repository.

Just bought my first mac. I am facing same issue here but ctrl+Alt+3 don’t seem to work for me
Thanks for the tip ! I’ve just inherited a Mac Book Air, and really needed the hash key (for comments in a high level programming language). On my computer is is alt 3 not control alt 3.
