![]() Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes. Have you travelled recently to Hel**? With your Mac? But, if I type this something in the Google search page of this same browser, no problemo! :( ![]() But if I go back to "Notes", I cannot! Or, if I try to type something in the address bar of the browser I am in, it is frozen! (No key entry is allowed). Yes, I find for now I can type fine here. Can you type in this Apple Discussions text box?Ī. It's all at default, there is no "Sticky" or "Slow" keys set, or anything turned on. I checked everything in those two Preference settings. Have you checked the settings for Accessibility and Keyboard?Ī. For then, the same behaviour would show in the "Stickies" app. I tried other keyboards, same deal! Also, since some keys like Printer work, and since it is intermittent but somewhat predictable, that too leaves the keyboard off the hook.Ī. Does plugging the keyboard into another USB port resolve the issue?Ī. But then after typing a bit, it starts back up again, where the keyboard (almost) freezes! Sometimes it'll stop typing again after a sentence and a half! It somehow, at some point, resolves itself without my having to do anything, including not needing to log out of the session. I logged out of my session, then it started working again, then it came back! I restarted the computer, it started working again, then it came back! It's just not going away!Ī. Because it ALWAYS works fine in Stickies!Ī. I thought "Is it a keylogger?" - but it can't be. I made no changes to my macos recently, no new software, no new nothing. No! It works fine in "Stickies" app! It is the only app I've found where the keyboard always works, even while still frozen when I switch to "Notes" or "TextEdit", etc!Ī. So the keyboard freezes up in all apps?Ī. Moreover, sometimes it will be frozen in my browser, but work in TextWrangler!). But I have seen this same 'freeze' occur after a short time in TextWrangler. When it freezes in "Notes", I then try typing in TextEdit, TextWrangler, or a browser, and still no characters appear! (However, while frozen in Notes app, it may work immediately afterward in TextWrangler. Keypresses don't work in "Notes" app only or all apps?Ī. Some keys like the Printer key still function!! So all keys are frozen, when keypresses don't register?Ī. I'm on High Sierra, but I have NEVER encountered a problem like this one before, on any macos, including Sierra/High Sierra. No numbers, no letters, no RETURN key, no SPACEBAR. macos "Notes", and then all of sudden, BAM! My keyboard makes like it hit a brick wall, and won't type ANY character. All of a sudden, my iMac developed this REALLY weird keyboard problem that is driving me NUTS.
