Here is a list of problems in my life:
1. I pour water on my poor MacBook Pro keyboard. Wipe it up, Shut it down.
2. Next day. Restart. Some keys act wonky.
3. I need a program to disable the internal keyboard as a temporary fix. I have a wireless one. I install key remap for macbook. I install double command. Neither were able to do that. Shutdown.
4. Restart. Neither keyboard works. I learn that having both those programs installed at the same time will do that.
5. Uninstalling either program requires typing my password. But the programs won't let me use the keyboard.
6. Keyboard viewer won't type the symbols I have in my password.
7. Symbol viewer won't type into the Mac password box.
8. Pasting into the password box isn't allowed either, at least with out shortcuts.
9. I have a Linux boot disc on my desk. Perhaps I can delete the folder through Linux. Insert disc, change boot disc to the CD. Linux won't delete the file because of permissions or some ****. Shut down.
10. I can't boot Mac OS since my boot disc is the CD and I can't hold down any of the keys that tell it to boot to a menu or straight to the OS since the keyboard doesn't work.
11. The external keyboard should work while booting since the program hasn't started. It did while logging in. It doesn't now.
12. On the Linux cd there is an option for boot from first disc or something. It tells me there is no disc and that I should insert one and press any key.
13. Try to put in the Mac OS disc, but the eject button is on the keyboard that doesnt work.
14. I will boot Linux then eject on shutdown. Oh, now the disc is going to decide not to work. Clicking "try Ubuntu with no change" loads for a while then goes to a black screen.
15. I retry this several times. I also give it loads of time, finally letting it sit till it burns away the whole battery.
The battery does recharge. First thing going right all day.
16. I can't remember my password, so I make a new account from my phone to post here.
17. As soon as I finish typing this I drop my phone and click onto a new page, erasing the entire message.
This is the current situation of my story.
Do you have any suggestions on how to boot OSX, or how to fix my keyboard issue(s).
Thanks
