what up.

never really had a problem with public wifi until DP5 and now I cant seem to log on at all. Anyone figured out a way around this? maybe deleting some systems preference files and whatnot?

Also... lately and very randomly i've been losing my keyboard and trackpad while working on **** throughout the day. I'll be typing away like a fiend and boom! not one key including the trackpad work except for the hard rest button. And I end up losing any unsaved work like long-ass posts on the fb or google minus.

Does anyone know what's the deal with the latter?

Thanks fellas! :)

Strange, something similar happened about an hour ago with my keyboard and trackpad. I ended up plugging in an external mouse to restart elegantly, and suddenly all my pending keypresses/clicks finally went through –*like they were stuck in a buffer somewhere. Anything more concrete would be helpful.

(additional: I haven't had any issues with public wifi so far)

In regards to the keyboard. I just reinstalled the DP5 update. Hopefully fixes it, haven't had it happen yet.

I'm having the same issue with the Apple Bluetooth keyboard and trackpad. As a result, I entered a bug report. No issues with wifi, though.

yeah I reset the p-ram and it seemed to help the wifi but I hope the keyboard stuff doesn't come back, cause i never turn off my Air. Only after a week or two when safari starts to slow down or malfunction. Maybe there is something else to reset that I haven't reset yet.


Thanks for the input guys.
