Morning all,

Here’s a weird one. The +/= key and the left and right cursor keys on my Apple Bluetooth keyboard (connected to a Mac Mini) have stopped working. All the other keys work fine. I’ve Googled the problem of course and tried all the suggested fixes, but nothing makes any difference. Anybody come across this before? Anybody have any ideas what I could try? Anybody have a spare keyboard for sale :-)

Thanks

Sounds like a hardware issue unfortunately! I’ve got a box full of spare PC USB keyboards if you want one to tide you over

Thanks Sam,

Yeah, a hardware issue seems probably, but it also seems a really strange one.

Thanks for the PC keyboard offer, but I think I’ll probably hunt for a wired Apple keyboard on eBay.

Cheers
Phil
