hi, for some unknown reason my powerbook g4 shift keys have just stopped working. i'm unable to make letters capital or access basic characters like the "@, ?, or _" keys (i'm having to use a USB keyboard to type those) in fact i cant seem to find those keys anywhere on the key board with any of the command keys held.
I just got it back from the Apple store for an unrelated problem but the guy said something about he changed the keyboard cos a key fell off while he was cleaning it.
I don't think its a hardware issue because both shift keys are not working.
I've been through the international settings menu, under system preferences and have altered my languages set to British or US (neither work).
also i used to use copy and paste short keys ctrl+c and ctrl+v, now ctrl has been replaced with the Apple key??
i'm using tiger 10.4
