New MBP, uneven keys.

[cluthz]

I just got my MBP and it looks great so far, except that the left shift is uneven compared to the rest of the keyboard.

Can i peel it off and try reseat it to get it aligned with the rest of the keyboard? Or would that damage it even more?

I have a similar problem with several keys. I'm bringing it to the apple store today to see if they can do that. I don't want to do it myself, and possibly void the warranty. So I'll let the genius decide. (Plus I have a few other issues...)

You can pop keys off for cleaning, but if it is new I would take it in and ask them to do it instore.

Yeah, the mbp keys are designed to pop off. Bring it in. They will just pop it off and reseat it. If that doesn't work, they may just replace the key...or they could be a pain and say its cosmetic and no big deal. Only a visit to the bar will tell.

Don't hang out here or you will be sorry you ever purchased a MBP!
