    2016 12" MacBook A1534 - Space Bar Replacement

    I consider myself pretty handy, but i can't figure out the space bar replacement on my A1534. I really don't want to do a whole keyboard replacement, local shops quoting me $300+ (and, I could use a new battery too). At that point, I might as well buy a new machine. I bought these two...

    USB Keyboard - Connecting

    I have two Apple A1243 low profile with numpad keyboards. One of them connects no matter which usb port it plugs into. The other one will not connect using the usb ports on the front of the mac, but connects via usb ports in the back. Can you think of an explanation for this?
