Not on the same lines,..but I had a call out once for a clients computer which was “randomly” doing weird things on the screen. After spending some time on it, I couldn’t see anything happen. Then, in a text document while showing her something else,..it randomly wrote letters on the page. Then stopped. After going through and checking, I saw there was another Bluetooth keyboard “linked” to it. I queried it and they advised it was in the cupboard as “wasn’t working well”. Turns out it was still on, and had something resting on it. When a truck or larger vehicle would go past, it was enough to set it off and do “strange things”…… After turning it off, and removing it from Bluetooth settings,…problem resolved :) Happy client. :) hehehe. :)
But yes,…electronics can do “strange” things :)) Kind regards Daniel Sent from my iPhone XS --- Daniel Kerr MacWizardry Phone: 0414 795 960 Email: <daniel AT macwizardry.com.au> Web: <http://www.macwizardry.com.au> **For everything Apple** NOTE: Any information provided in this email may be my personal opinion and as such should be taken accordingly, and may not be the views of MacWizardry.
