URGENT: MBP Keyboard Broken

Westyfield2 · 19 Jul 2008 at 16:56

Machine: 2.4GHZ SR MBP

History: Yesterday sometimes the keyboard and trackpad would hang for 5-10secs, but bluetooth mouse would still work. Also it would sometimes think I pressed the eject or volume up key, when I was nowhere near them.

Today: Its been happening off + on all afternoon, but now the keyboard/mouse have gone and won't come back!
Rebooted but still dead so can't login!

Ideas anyone?

Sorry about typing, am on iPhone.

Reason it's urgent is that all today progress on my coursework is saved on there!!

Do you have access to a USB keyboard/mouse to plug in?

It worked

Grabbed the G15 keyboard from my PC and used that to login and copy my Coursework over.
Right at the end of copying, the macs Keyboard came back to life, but it had been dead for a good 30mins.

So what now? Is there anything I can do/try to fix it? It's 10months old and I bought the 3yrs AppleCare so I guess if not it's just take it down to an Apple shop.
