Greetings!
I have a very specific problem with my MacBook. :??:
Since I updated it to 10.11 the keyboard doesn't work properly when I start up the computer.
What happens is basically that the "A" key and the backspace one don't work, but if I press them repeatedly and at the same time they start working again...
Can it be a OS problem or is it more likely a hardware problem?
Sorry for my poor English, hope I've been clear.
Thanks to everybody who reads this!
 


You just walked off with somebody else's laptop?
 

No ahaha
It was my father's. As I said, I'm not a really good English speaker

 
I suggest you return it to your father, he may have info on there that he was saving for a reason.
Otherwise, download defraggler and run it on the drive.
 

He agreed on giving it to me a while ago.
He left it there because he bought a new one.
I'll try what you suggest.
By the way he never did things other than writing/editing work documents that now are in his new laptop.
 

Defraggler is only avalaible on Windows and all the other apps that do the same cost quite a lot...

 
Sorry, forgot this was a Mac, have a friend with a PC do it then or run windows in bootcamp if you can. Mac's don't have a real need to defrag often and there's no free utility sadly
 

Thanks for your help anyways
