Just bought a function key version of the 2017 13in MacBook Pro. I think the keyboard might be developing faults.
Frequently when I login to a programme or site after waking, the login will fail. I watched the keypress sequence a bit closer and saw that one or two of the keypresses would actually give a backwards character delete in place of the intended character - so the login would fail as insufficient characters have been entered. This happens at least once a day.
Today I saw that pressing keys would cause a jump out of the character entry box and cause an entry box restart. So it's getting worse.
It's as if the character I actually enter by the keypress isn't the character I'm asking for. Bad keyboard or something else ? Hacked keyboard ? To test this I'm going to run the same install using an external SSD on this 2017 MacBook Pro and a 2014 MacBook Air. This should isolate the keyboard.
Anyone else with a similar problem ?
Cheers.
