I have been having this issue for a while: When holding the shift key and then pressing space bar the key stroke is ignored. It is quite frustrating when trying to type a document.

Things i have done:
-Erased and fresh install (multiple times not for this specific reason).
-Keyboard has been replaced by Apple (when changing the battery they changed the whole lower shell for me last week under AppleCare).
-Checked keyboard shortcuts.

Everything seems fine.

Anyone else experience this? Looking on the apple forums leads me to posts that have since been deleted.

Thanks!

I feel like my avatar. I found an app that was trying to use shift + space as a shortcut :p
