thinking of it ive had a few keyboard issues so I am wondering if its my iMac.
had to get a new keyboard as id broken my apple one, and the two older apple ones I had from my mini and 2011 iMac, I had problems with. one occasionally randomly typed extra characters, and the other, randomly one key wouldnt work at any one time, this settled down to only be the Z key but had been others. weirdly at one time the O worked, the shift worked but I couldnt get a capital O by **** o only by caps lock. every other key worked with shift.
anyway I digress. bought a microsoft keyboard and mouse, mainly because they were white (I know). already hate it for one main reason, when I restart into bootcamp to play fallout I have to re-pair the mouse and keyboard, and do it again when I restart into Mac.
but thats not my complaint/question.
if I leave my Mac for more than 5 mins, moving the mouse is instantly fine, but it takes the keyboard about 3 or 4 keypresses before it wakes up and starts typing. once its awake I can type fine as I am doing right now. but its annoying that every time I sit down and go to type I have to remember to tap a key a few times otherwise the first word of what im typing will be missing the first 3 or 4 letters.
any ideas?
