keyboard

I have a strange problem with this KB. Every key works fine included CapsLock and LED except the A key doesnt produce an A but replicates the CapsLock feature. Any ideas if its something software (does it on a PC too) or firmware or hardware? Fixable? Or junk? I dont like to chuck out fixable...

Please put your choice in the poll :)

My MacBook Air M2 has developed a mushy key. The 'L' key. Sometimes when I'm typing, the L doesn't show up because it needs slightly more pressure to register. I think a crumb of monster munch (roast beef) may be in there. I have no AppleCare, but it's within warrantee. The problem is a trip...

I put my MacBook Pro M1 into repair on the 3rd January at Sydney Apple Store due to the keyboard failing. Was told it would be completed by the 11th January (simple top section replacement) so I figured it was worth doing so I could have it for the rest of my stay in Aus until the end of the...

On Apple’s website, it says that to get the keyboard in iPadOS, you need to pinch outwards with two fingers on the floating keyboard. But this doesn’t work for me in iPadOS 16. So how do you get to the big keyboard?

Apple can just simply combine the Air and 10gen... The usb-c and Apple Pencil with lightning port is very confusing(Too inconvenient to charge) . Still keeping a 3dot connector at the bottom edge and making a new Microsoft surface keyboard is also weird, thus the vanilla iPad can't use the Magic...

Hey all! I have a 14-inch MBP that I like, but I've noticed that some areas of the keyboard have already started to show some shininess - even with diligent cleaning. I know Apple doesn't recommend keyboard covers for MacBooks, but I'm wondering if anyone has tried decals/stickers on keys to...

I have been experiencing issues with adding emojis from the emoji keyboard that pops up in macOS Monterey when you press the Globe key a couple of times. I finally figured out what is going on. When the emoji keyboard pops up, if you tap-to-click on an emoji character, the keyboard will close...

It's not a well-known issue, but there have been a few reports of macbook pros (2010 - 2015) having loose or wobbly keycaps. Now this isn't something you would really notice unless it bothered you (especially since you would acclimate to it over time), but since I couldn't find any information...

Hello folks. I have been searching around for a possible topic that mentions any dust issue with the keyboards of Macbooks. I noticed something that I have lots of dust particles under the keyboard buttons of my 2021 MBP 14". Do you think it can be a problem after some time, so do I need to use...

The title might be a bit misleading, but let me explain. Two months ago, a friend of mine gave me an Apple A1016 keyboard, that he got for 5€. I couldn't pair it with anything at first, but I soon found out that I have to type in a "secret" PIN (0000 in my case), before I enter the pairing...

So I'm trying to get a clear understanding of which Apple laptops have the scissor-switch keyboard mechanisms vs the butterfly ones. I haven't found a definitive list anywhere and want to avoid buying or recommending the butterfly-style ones to anyone. Can someone either list or point me to a...

I'm trying to decide between the Tactile Quiet and Linear switches on the Logitech MX Mechanical keyboard. About half-way down the page, you can click on buttons to hear the noise the keys make. I'm actually finding the noise of the Linear switches to be more quiet than the Tactile Quiet. Am I...

Hi hope all are well! This is actually an interesting one. Picked up this project with my Dad for...pretty much just a fun mod project. A matte black macbook just sounded badass to me. This began before the announcement of the midnight Macbook. The plan was to separate the keyboard from the...

I've been using my MB since 2016, love this laptop and still is everything I need. I replaced the stupid butterfly keyboard and the battery back in January and it's been running well. I went to use the laptop a couple of days ago and it wouldn't boot up. Battery was fully charged. I plugged it...

Sorry, I didn't know where to post this but in my hopes of saving someone else from this headache, I offer the following story/tip. TL;DR "Having seeming software problems with macros? Clean your keyboard — especially your modifier keys!" My Macbook Air 11" running Monterey was recently...

Hi, I’ve just bought a mid-2014 MacBook pro with non-working touchpad. Only the clicks are working at the bottom of the trackpad but it’s ok because I prefer mouse. But the main problem is the built-in keyboard. When I start typing, it freezes or disconnect for a sec in every 4-5 sec...
