    Default PC problem! (Rep award included)

    Hi all!

    I have a McBook keyboard problem. It' been one month when my McBook had problem with the button. I mean, I was pressing a button but the PC was writing sth else in the screen. It was automatically fixed in 5 minutes. But, yesterday, when I was typing a message, suddenly one button stopped responding. after some minutes, 4 more buttons did the same. The only way to write these letters is only by copying-pasting this letter from the screen.What should I do? I know I can go to change it, but it's tooo expensive.

    Rep award included!( and a lot of it!)

    This is a laptop right? Excellent choice.
    This problem for the macbook is almost common. And this is the only bad with this machine.


    Try this fix from Apple.

    check connection between the keyboard and if possible something might be out of place
    I samo dotle, do tog kamena,do tog bedema,
    Nogom ces stupit, mozda poganom,drznes li dalje?...Cuces gromove
    Kako tisinu zemlje slobodne...Sa grmljavinom strasnom kidaju;
    Razumeces ih srcem strasljivim...Sta ti sa smelim glasom govore,
    Pa ces o stenja tvrdom kamenu
    Brijane glave teme celavo
    U zanosnome strahu lupati...
    Al' jedan izraz, jednu misao,
    Čućeš u borbe strašnoj lomljavi:
    "Otadžbina je ovo Srbina!..."

    Weird, this the fix from Apple for this problem. Can you check the drivers again?

    I misread your first post. I thought the macbook was a month old and already bust (if I didn't misread - seriously get it replaced).

    It has to do with your keyboard, not software. Happened to me with my macbook before. I sent my pc in for a repair and it was working better. Good luck

    The keyboard issue with Macbooks and Macbooks Pros has been an issue for quite a while but in December 07 Apple finally done something about it. What you need to do is go to this page and download the update this should fix the issue if not make it easier to live with.

    I'm no Mac expert, sorry. I assume then your Macbook already has that update then? What happens when you try to run it?
