I spilled some water on my newish Apple keyboard. It is the white
ones I
believe they are still selling. Anyway, I got water on it, and only
the down
and left keys work. I took it apart, dried 99 percent of it, put it
back
together, still doesnt work. I am about to go try again and really
clean it.
But if someone knew specifically what was wrong that would help a lot.
Spilling water on it is probably better than Coke or coffee with cream
& sugar.
I have not spilled anything on our keyboards, but have taken several
used ones we bought apart for cleaning.
There is an excellent take-apart, cleaning and repairing tutorial (with
great pictures) here:

BTW, whats with the USB entender it comes with that has a notch in it.
Why is Apple doing this? I wanted to use the extender for my Apple
mouse in
the meantime but I cant, all because of a notch which serves no purpose
whatsoever.
I never noticed that notch until I purchased three used Apple USB
extender cables on the Swap List, then discovered how useless they are
for other things. Of course, what Apple really needs to do is put a
decent length of cable on their keyboards and forget the extenders all
together.
