Try resetting the Keyboard:


close all applications press the F1 for 30 seconds

if this has no effect, remove the connection to the keyboard:


if a wired keyboard: unplug from Mac, wait a minimum of 5 minutes, reconnect.


if a wireless keyboard:

remove the batteries from the keyboard

if there is a power switch on the keyboard, gently press the switch several times

press a variety of keys occaisionally for a minimum of 5 minutes [this discharges the capacitors in the keyboard]

replace the batteries and turn it on
