Hi all,
I recently purchased a 13" MacBook Pro w/ Touch Bar.
Over the past few days, my "e" key has begun responding intermittently, mostly working but sometimes not (sometimes double-entering as well), all without contact from food or water. I tried compressed air to no avail.
I took it into an Apple Store this evening and they suggested that I return the computer as they didn't yet have any key-covers. I don't particularly want to go through that process for obvious reasons, so I am left with two choices: return the computer and potentially wait for weeks (it's not stock-- it has a 3.1 ghz processor), or wait until the Apple Store has the necessary parts. I guess there is a third option.. return the damn thing and buy something else But despite everyone's hatred for this computer, I rather like it.
Has anyone had similar problems with their keys on their MacBooks or new MacBook Pros? And what would you do in my situation? I didn't purchase Apple Care, so I'm unsure how costly of a repair this might be outside of the two week delivery window.
Thanks!
