Macbook Air keyboard not so responsive I don't know what it is with the 2020 M1 Macbook Air keyboard but mine has a really gritty feel to it now after just over a year. It feels like there's sand behind all the keys. I keep it in a case when not in use. It's really annoying just how much its sensitivity has decreased. I'm sure there will be minuscule pieces of debris behind the keys but I've not known this issue with any other Apple keyboards, at lease not to this extent. Is this a common issue associated with this Mac?

Keyboard Marks on M1 MacBook Air Screen Anyone else having issues with their M1 MacBook Air keyboard and enclosure leaving marks on the screen? I regularly clean the keyboard and periodically the screen, and don't use a keyboard cover. I don't normally take my MacBook anywhere, and I take care of it. It is stored on a desk every night outside of a case. There is nothing that would cause this besides poor design. The other annoying thing about this is it also means that any dirt/debris that happens to get on the keyboard and isn't wiped off before closing the screen will be ground into the screen, potentially leaving permanent marks/scratches. Is this a known issue, and has anyone had it rectified? Thanks, Richard.

Brand new MacBook Pro M2 14" - Keyboard appears to be rubbing on screen when closed After only a few weeks, I've started to notice that the spacebar and other keys are starting to rub on the screen when the MacBook is closed, leaving marks. I'm very careful with it when I travel, but with the tolerances so low, I'm getting concerned that this could become a serious problem. Any recommendations on an ultra-thin microfiber cloth that may help prevent further damage? I should have kept that flimsy sheet that came with it, but I'm not sure that would really solve this problem. I think two or three of them together might have. TIA for any advice.

Maybe wash your hands before using the computer.

You'll have to ask Apple directly, as this is a user to user problem assistance community. As such we have no access to Apple's R&D decisions, development decisions or corporate policies of any type.

My personal opinion is no.
