Full Version: Spilled Coffee

I spilled coffee all over my keyboard (don't even comment bigcry.gif ) and the keys slowly stopped working.
I have an iBook with a removable keyboard.
I'm trying to dry it, and while I'm at it, clean it, but can't figure out how to take off the number lock part. Can anyone help?

Also, I really needed that half of the coffee. bigcry.gif
And I have to use a Dell now to post this. bigcry.gif

So please please help.

Thank you.
Xi
Bump.

It is likely hosed (especially if there was sugar in the coffee).
Start looking for a replacement keyboard on eBay...
Xi
So there's nothing at all I can do?

ETA: Keyboards on eBay are cheap; the shipping is scandalous.

It might work, then again it might not.
Or it might work partially. Let it dry and find out...

Thanks so much.
It's dry (I think); I put back the a. It doesn't work. If the a doesn't work, I might as well spend 25 dollars on a new keyboard. Am trying to find the cheapest one that will ship the soonest.

BTW, your siggy is driving me nuts. I've been trying for days to get that song out of my head.
ETA: But it's okay. This Dell is driving me even more nutter.

Did you try unlocking it?

It's disgusting, Shuli. And embarrassing. A friend saw it and asked, why are you talking to someone like that.

It's just that some eyes are too holy to see things they shouldn't.
Now change your avvie before even not seeing it starts to have a hashpa'ah! mad.gif

Well even if I was there I dont think I would have seen it....

(But why in the place that you avie is suppose to be on h.com, is there those X as if a pic was there but it did not up load as opposed to other peoples which I can see?)

I thought of you over shabbos, when the subject of mussar came up. tongue.gif My host was saying that the way you can tell mussar was properly given, is if the person thanks you for it afterwards...

Because I never switched over when they stopped hosting avvies on the site. And I figured everyone was getting bored of seeing my yingele.
