    Hi all,

    I am working on a MacBook Air and the keyboard seems to be inputting random charaters. For example the 'g' inputs a copyright sign, 'v' inputs a tick etc. I plug in a USB keyboard and its fine. I have checked all the input settings etc and all appears ok.

    Does anyone have any idea what may be happening please?

    Many thanks for your help in advance.

    Kind Regards
    Dave

    Copyright is Option G, so maybe your Option/Alt key is a little sticky or playing up?
