So, my Mac was used by my little brother for about a week, and I think he might've eaten over it. The keyboard feels a bit weird, and the space bar is slightly less responsible. I'm one of those really OCD type people who wants things basically in tip top order.

Was wondering if Apple Care covers things like cleaning under the keyboard and what not? My Touchpad Click is a bit slow too.

Thanks!

check your browsing history. If you see any porn sites, that you haven't visited yourself, then you just might be in a sticky situation :D

Apple Care does not cover cleaning; you can do a computer maintenance once a year if you have ProCare. Apple's advice is just get compressed air and do it yourself.

I can't believe I'm going to check if my 9 year old brother is looking at porn...

I figured =p

There is something for sure in my keyboard

Any suggestions without breaking it? My n key is very... unresponsive

'N' key huh? Check that browsing history, get some compressed air (with gloves, face protection, etc.) and blow the ***** under there. Clean the keys will rubbing alcohol.
