Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Please help! My sticky keys aren't working even though they are checked in preferences accessibility box.
I've restarted my computer several times and no luck. could someone out there please advise?
T.I.A.
MacBook Pro 15", OS X 10.11
Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode?
Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.
To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
Open System Preferences>Users & Groups, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
Does it work in the new account?
