    Hey CBangaru,

     

    So if I understand you correctly, when you are logging in to your iMac, your keyboard works fine, but after login it does not function as expected, is that right?

     

    The good news here is that because the keyboard does work before login, this is not a hardware issue - the physical keyboard is fine. We want to troubleshoot this for a software issue. I would suggest that you use the steps in this article - Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue - Apple Support

     

    In particular I would start with the section titled If the issue occurs in various applications, or in Mac OS X​.

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    Happy computing.
