Hello ksfromthecreek,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. We see you need help changing your keyboard spacebar from controlling your mouse on your MacBook Air. We have steps to help. There was a change in the Accessibility settings. Depending on which macOS you have installed, the instructions may vary slightly:
- Open System Settings (also known as System Preferences)
- Select Accessibility
- You may either need to click the Alternate Control Methods tab, or look under the section titled the same
- Disable Mouse Keys
Mouse Keys allows your pointer to be controlled using the keyboards keys or number pad. Read more here: Control the pointer using Mouse Keys on Mac - Apple Support
Reply back with any further questions or concerns.
All the best.
