Hi! Yesterday I spilled some juice all over my Apple Keyboard. It is the Aluminium USB version. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB110LL/B/apple-keyboard-with-numeric-keypad
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Keyboard#Apple_Keyboard_.28109_keys.29 It is model A1243 introduced in 2007; System requirements were back than Mac OS X 10.4.something; in the store it’s now 10.6.something… After unplugging it I washed it using water, but the juice was in so deep that I feared I won’t get it all out without enought water, so I put it under running water. I inverted it and allowed it to try for about 20 hours. I later found that 24 to 48 hours would have been better: http://guides.macrumors.com/Spilled_Liquid_On_My_Mac_or_Keyboard The good news: the built-in USB hub works. The bad news: the keyboard doesn’t. Not one keypress was recognized by the system. I tried to find a solution on YouTube, like how to open it, but I cannot find a good video that would help. Most videos deal with how to clean the individual keys rather than how to open it. Did I plug it in too early? Could it really be broken beyond repair? All suggestions are wellcome… Thanks, Andreas aka Mac User #330250 -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
