If you have an external keyboard, you may turn it as you spray the air by using the same procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-clean-mac-keyboard-keys\"><span id=\"how-to-clean-mac-keyboard-keys\">How to Clean Mac Keyboard Keys<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lysol and Clorox kitchen disinfectant wipes are suggested by <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/apple\/how-to-connect-apple-pencil-to-ipad-detailed-guide\/\">Apple<\/a>. There is no chance of liquid harming the keyboard because the alcohol evaporates. However, be sure to squeeze out wet wipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-clean-mac-keyboard-under-keys\"><span id=\"how-to-clean-mac-keyboard-under-keys\">How to Clean Mac Keyboard Under Keys<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perform a thorough cleaning when keys stick or when debris is trapped under a key.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Close the laptop or unplug the keyboard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure the keycaps are correctly inserted and snapped in place by pressing each key. This is also a good technique to make sure that the keys respond consistently and that no debris is obstructing their movement.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shake the MacBook vigorously while holding the keyboard down. Tap the borders of the keyboard or laptop to clear any debris that may have become lodged in between the keys. Shaking off as much of the dry and loose material as you can is the goal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Hold the keyboard at a 75-degree angle, as advised by Apple for laptops. After that, quickly spray the canned air into the gap between each row of keys. Work in a zigzag motion from left to right from top to bottom.<br>Note that when using canned air, read the directions carefully. If the can tips over while being used, propellant rather than air may shoot out, which could damage sensitive devices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blow small bursts of compressed air from edge to edge of the keyboard while turning it 90 degrees to the right.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To get rid of any last bits of dirt, gently brush the keyboard or laptop with a canister or shop vacuum equipped with a soft brush attachment.<br>Before turning on the vacuum, cut the foot off a piece of pantyhose and place it over the nozzle if any keys are missing or have already fallen off. If a keycap escapes the vacuum cleaner&#8217;s suction, it is stopped before entering the vacuum bag.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-is-there-a-keyboard-cleaning-mode-on-mac-nbsp\"><span id=\"is-there-a-keyboard-cleaning-mode-on-mac\">Is there a keyboard cleaning mode on Mac?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-use-the-lock-screen-to-disable-most-keys\"><span id=\"1-use-the-lock-screen-to-disable-most-keys\">#1. Use the Lock Screen to Disable Most Keys<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll be led to what seems to be the login box if you select Apple &gt; Lock Screen, where you may enter your account password or unlock using Touch ID.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is an excellent chance for you to clean your keyboard thoroughly. You&#8217;ll remain on this page without sending meaningless emails to your loved ones or your boss, as long as you don&#8217;t unintentionally type your password or brush against the Touch ID button with your fingertip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you can still adjust the brightness or mute the volume because this won&#8217;t disable the media keys at the top of the keyboard. Remember this if your screen appears to be off after cleaning because you likely merely reduced the brightness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best approach to cleaning your trackpad is to use the lock screen since there is nothing for you to inadvertently click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-the-app-keyboardcleantool-works-too\"><span id=\"2-the-app-keyboardcleantool-works-too\">#2. The App KeyboardCleanTool Works Too<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If the unreliable technique of logging out isn&#8217;t sufficient, the free app KeyboardCleanTool can be a better option. This program locks all of the keys on your keyboard, including the Touch ID button and the top row of media keys. However, since you&#8217;ll require a method of pressing the button to remove the lock, it does not disable the trackpad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You must whitelist the app in <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/technology\/what-is-system-haptics\/\">System<\/a> Preferences (System Settings) &gt; Security &amp; Privacy &gt; Privacy to use it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>To enable KeyboardCleanTool, first authenticate by clicking the padlock in the bottom left corner of the screen.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Then, click the Accessibility section and check the box to the right of KeyboardCleanTool.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>To thoroughly clean your MacBook, you may now use KeyboardCleanTool to lock your keyboard without logging out. Additionally, the app is perfect for both cats and young children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-clean-the-inside-of-my-imac-keyboard-nbsp\"><span id=\"how-do-i-clean-the-inside-of-my-imac-keyboard\">How do I clean the inside of my IMAC keyboard?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Dust and filth can easily be removed from your keyboard by wiping it down with a damp, soft, lint-free cloth.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With a cotton swab soaked in alcohol and some pressure, stubborn stains can be removed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For clearing junk off some keyboards, a can of compressed air works well.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-can-i-clean-my-macbook-keyboard-without-compressed-air-nbsp\"><span id=\"how-can-i-clean-my-macbook-keyboard-without-compressed-air\">How can I clean my MacBook keyboard without compressed air?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use cotton swabs that have been dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the MacBook&#8217;s keys. You have to make sure that it has simply been dipped, not soaked. Throw away the cotton swab once all of the dust has been taken off. Additionally, the keyboard can also be cleaned with a tiny brush.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-often-should-i-clean-my-mac-keyboard-nbsp\"><span id=\"how-often-should-i-clean-my-mac-keyboard\">How often should I clean my Mac keyboard?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You should clean your keyboard once a year.

A damp disinfectant wipe or a cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol can do the trick. Never use a wet cloth to wipe your keyboard since it could harm the components that are housed beneath the keys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-five-steps-to-cleaning-a-keyboard-nbsp\"><span id=\"what-are-the-five-steps-to-cleaning-a-keyboard\">What are the five steps to cleaning a keyboard?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>You should disconnect and turn off your <a href=\"https:\/\/businessyield.com\/tech\/technology\/drawing-laptop\/\">laptop<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shake and flip your laptop upside-down.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To remove loose particles, use compressed air or a soft brush.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>To clean behind the keys, pry them off.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Change the keys.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-you-fix-a-keyboard-that-is-hard-to-press-nbsp\"><span id=\"how-do-you-fix-a-keyboard-that-is-hard-to-press\">How do you fix a keyboard that is hard to press?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>Turn off your laptop or unplug the keyboard before using it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Shake the keyboard gently while holding it upside-down.

Even if you always wash your hands before typing, the keyboard still picks up the dust in your home or office, as well as the bacteria and sweat from your fingertips. This can lead to sticky keys and the spread of viruses, among other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-air-dust-my-macbook-nbsp\"><span id=\"how-do-i-air-dust-my-macbook\">How do I air-dust my MacBook?&nbsp;<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Use compressed air to blast dirt from any accessible, open crack in your MacBook.
