Small Liquid Spill on MBP Keyboard... Now not working. Any Help?

I recently spilled a very small amount of liquid on my MBP keyboard (~3 drops), and now the keyboard does not work at all. Any diagnoses or solutions?? I really can't seem to believe that such a small amount of liquid could damage it so much, but maybe I'm missing something! Thanks in advance!

What you are seeing happens when the ambient light level is bright enough so the Mac judges that you don't need keyboard backlighting. If you don't agree and want backlighting anyway, download and install [Lab Tick|http://labtick.proculo.de> to gain full manual control over it.

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

    You need to restore.
    Everything should be on your computer, so you can just sync it back.

    Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken.  If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

    A reset has nothing to do with Internet access or data access.
    A reset is simply pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.
    What are you really trying to do?

  • Lenovo G580 the key "{/[" in the keyboard is not working.Pls help.

    Hi,
    I recently bought this laptop less than a month ago.  few day earlier this paranthesis key is not working any more.  Laptop keyboard is without any dust or blemish. I am running ubuntu and when I checked there is no press/release event being registered, using XEV package. I also ran the system with live cd same issue. Tried removing the key and cleaning the interior, nothing helps. 
    Is this a problem with some connection in the keyboard?  I cannot think of any software issues since It was working fine couple days ago? 
    Help would be greatly appreciated since I am in the middle of writing my dessertation.

  • Hello, delete all of my iphone 3G SHSH and now does not work. any help?

    hi, my iphone 3g not reading, accidentally delete all SHSH, i nedd help.

    If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in ones, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.
    If it's happening on all apps including Apple's, then try closing them all completely and then see if they work when you re-open them : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • My iMessaging is not working, any help as to how to get it working again?

    All of my messages are being sent to other iPhone users as texts, and the Apple system statem shows that nothing is wrong, but it's not working. Anyone else?

    Not enough info in your post to help, such as your Messages settings and whether or not you have a data connection,  Have no idea what you mean by "Apple system statem"

  • Wake on LAN, Keyboard, Mouse not working - PLEASE help!

    Hey Guys,
    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this question.  I have an Asus laptop that is connected to an external keyboard and mouse.  I want to be able to put the PC in sleep mode, then be able to wake it up with the mouse or keyboard. 
    I've tried many trouble shooting steps, including the enabling of "Power Management" / "Allow this device to wake up the computer" and the enabling of the "USB selective suspend setting" in the power options.  None of which
    resolved the issue.  When I enable the "Allow this device to wake up the computer" in the Keyboard, mouse, or LAN adapter, the option does not stay selected after rebooting.  Does anyone know of a solution, or can point me in the right
    directions?
    TIA,
    George
