My keyboard on my Macbook pro and mousepad stopped working. I think I pressed something weird and locked the keyboard and mouse. I can plug in an external mouse, but I can't seem to log in.

How can I unlock my keyboard on my Macbook pro? It's in good condition and suddenly the keyboard and mousepad seemed to lock or stop working.


I gave the update and then restarted and can't log in because I can't type.


When I plug in an external mouse I can get the mouse to work but no keyboard. What can I do to make keyboard work?

MacBook Pro 13″, OS X 10.10

Hi,

If your MacBook Pro has Intel processor, resetting SMC could solve your issue.
