I got a a razer huntsman elite keyboard about a year ago. All that time and my media keys don't work, I already renamed the "Jamie T1" file to "Huntsman Elite" but it still doesn't work. Does anyone know to fix this? (I want to use the media keys for iTunes by the way)

For me (Black widow elite) it seems to be a problem with synapse. Try turning it off an try the media keys.
Yes, I agree, Black Widow Elite media keys only work if you don't use Razor Synapse. Seems pretty dumb that I bought this keyboard without knowing that major flaw.
I got in touch with support and was able to fix the issue. In my case I had to go to device manager, delete the razer black widow drivers and restard my pc.
Synapse can only control the primary sound output and the media player that runs via this hardware / driver, right?
I hope that I'm just blind, because i dont find any other option to setup...
Otherwise that would be pretty lousy if there is just one option : - /

I would like to control itunes directly ...... especially the volume and play / pause. even if other players (youtube / soundcloud / vlc etc) are open in the background.
