Hi fellow members ,


My keyboard is acting wierd from this morning. The top row (qwertzui) and the numbers were not working at the begining. I thought it's a sticky key issue. As I saw some posts in the internet I went to accessibility option and turn on/off the mouse key option . But it doesn't do any good. I could not login as I could not enter some of the keys. So I logged in as guest. In an editor (pages) When I press 'a' I get å. After pressing option + caps lock now I get 123456 when I press q w e r t z u i . Now I am taking out each key and cleaning them underneath. It's so painful . Do you think this is a hardware issue or a software? I am using an iMac . Os - high Sierra , mid 2011 .

What can I do so that I can get going again ?

Your answers and insights will be appreciated.
