I'm having a problem with the Key Mapping. Most of the letters on my keyboard don't work when I assign them in the Key mode. A handful of them do, and they will ALL actually MAP when I assign them, but then after switching out of the mapping mode the keys don't trigger the things I assigned them to.
Did something change with v5? I never had any problem in v4.
Next to the midi and key-mapping button there is a button with a keyboard, piano, uncheck that one.

You probably have Computer MIDI Keyboard turned on. This means that you can only map the keys that are not being used as a midi keyboard. If the button to the left of the Key Map button is highlighted, turn it off.

The big give-away is that the icon flashes when you try to use the keyboard.

i've been using this
http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=38415
to give me a two octave midi keyboard for assignments/playing on top of the key assignments. the single octave the abes gave us ain't enough and having to type ctrl+shift+k to turn it on/off is a PITA. you can switch octaves and channels easier with tracktionkeys and i think it also has a thing where you can assign chords to be automatically played (i haven't got into it enough to mess with that yet...)
