[QUOTE="mcfly1204, post: 1302191, member: 216368"] I have a white MB, and the keys were getting pretty grimy. The cleaning consisted of a little pressure being applied to the keys and trackpad with a cotton ball and some rubbing alcohol. The good new, the keyboard looks great. The bad news, now the keyboard is erratic. For instance, anytime a textbox takes the focus, backslashes are continually typed into the field. Speaking of backslashes, I cannot type on on purpose. To go along with that, a single backslash is entered when i press the following keys: '0', '-', 'p', ';', and '/'. Whenever I type a '?', '|' appears afterwards. In addition, I can not type a capitol 'o', only lowercase. The trackpad seems to function fine. Any thoughts, because I would ap\pr\eciate it. [/QUOTE]
