use a cotton bud and when not in use push it through all the buttons and down the sides, a cheap and easy way to get rid of dust etc.

sounds like your ALT or CTRL button is stuck down. Try using compressed air to blow any debris from under the keys. You can pop the keys out also to clean underneath with a buter knife or nail file. It pops right back in.

Greetings from the Yahoo Brain in New York City!  \nHope you're watching the live Answers webcast at http://advision.webevents.yahoo.com/asktheplanet/brain.html !\n\n\nHere's some tips I've found to be helpful:  \n* Do not spray anything except canned air directly on the keyboard.\n* To get excess dust, potato chips, or paper clips out of the keyboard:\n  o Try turning the keyboard upside down & shake\n  o Try canned air: Tilt keyboard on end & spray air at an angle between keys (if you just spray the air directly into the keyboard, you are more likely to just force the dust into the cracks.\n  o Try a small vacuum cleaner with crevice tool\n  o Try popping the keys off if you need to get to something like a paper clip: Use a key or screwdriver under the edge of the key. \n* To get rid of the grime from the keys:\n  o Use a degreaser (like Formula 409) (spray on a paper towel) to clean the keys. Use a damp paper towel afterward if you need to remove any residue left from the degreaser. WARNING: Some paper towels shred, if you don't want to clean out the paper crumbs after cleaning the keyboard use non-shredding paper towels or a clean cloth. \n\nNow hey, use an air can blaster, but please, don't become an inhaler.  Over 150 people (mostly kids) die every year from this.  See link for me info: http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/usworld/news-article.aspx?storyid=47153\n\nHope this helps!\n--J.

You will need to buy a new keyboard. Or you can try to open it and clean all the terminals where keys make contact.

Well, it's time to clean it. Go to the store- any store that has techie stuff - and get some canned air. Bring it back. Turn the thing upside down and tap it on the table. Damn! Look at all those crumbs, chocalate crumbs, jelly and assorted coffee blots! No wonder your keyboard sticks. Blat the living crap out of the keys, inside every crevice you can. \n Don't take the advice of those who will inevitably say you can hose it down or put it in the dishwasher. I am a fan of hosing all kinds of electronics, fans, etc., down. But not keyboards. They don't like water. Stick to the canned air.

might be the keyboard, has some dust build up from a little moisture when it was wet, could be corrosio, could be it got on the cable end and it is corroded, I would take it out and check the cable end, if the socket and cable end are shiny, get a new keyboard, you can probably get one on Ebay for about 15$

Wipe it with teak oil and a soft cloth.  Uso no other furniture polish or you will ruin it.

LM(_._)O!!!! Thank you for that laugh! I am at work and was very bored, your question just lifted my spirits! And I would hope that you keep your keyboard clean, that way you know where your fingers have been and if the keyboard will be susceptable to any "Fing-ereal" diseases or not!

Try cleaning it with a Clean kit which you can find in computers shops. Good luck!

Take the keyboard apart and clean the inside with rubbing alcohol. There should be screws on the back. Undo those, then pry the top and the bottom apart (carefully, you shouldn't need to pull too hard). All the keys should be on the top part and the bottom should be a flat plastic part with wires inside (depending on the keyboard). Gently clean everywhere that the buttons make contact with ispropyl rubbing alcohol on cotton balls. Make sure it's completely dry before putting it back together.\n\nPS: Depending on the type of keyboard, you can't really pop off individual keys without breaking it. You're better off just taking it apart so you don't risk breaking anything.

I was cleaning my husband's desk and I accidentally slide the coffee over the entire keyboad, too clumsy! He remove the screws and wipe it with dry cloth and wait for a couple days to dry up, you can use electric fan but not too direct to the keyboard just to allow air moving. After lets says two weeks, your keyboard will be okay again! Just put back the screws back and you can used it and enjoy!\n\nsleepyhead

Rinse it off first, and then take it to a drive through wash.  The pressure wash should get it all off.  Good Luck.
