Hi my Apple wireless keyboard is randomly not responding to some keys, different ones each time. I keep changing my password only for keyboard not to recognise it 🤦🏼‍♀️😡

Do you have another keyboard that you can use, perhaps a wired USB keyboard?

Do you have many other devices connected to your Mac? Try disconnecting those and using the keyboard for a while without them. It's possible that some other device is creating interference with the keyboard.


There really should be no reason to change your password because your keyboard isn't working properly.


If you create another user account on your Mac does the keyboard work properly in that account?
