The iMac will no longer accept the characters A, S, D and F. As one of these characters make up my password, I can not log on. I have restarted the machine a couple of times, but nothing changes. Grateful for advice
Wired or unwired keyboard, please be VERY specific. Apple has made many keyboards over the y ears so we need to know what you have.
Please try resetting the SMC 2-3 times back to back with all wire peripherals disconnected including printers, scanners, EHDs etc..
