    super glue on keyboard

    Help - I was advised to fix a loose key on my brand new Toshiba "Satellite Pro" laptop keyboard by super-gluing it down. The glue has caused the keyboard to become ineffective, maybe a possible short. How can I fix this mistake? Thank you.

    Hello , To remove super glue you need some "acetone". Nail polish remover usually has acetone in it.Try that. Actually Acetone supposedly dissolves super glue. . But the remover may damage the plastic on your board (might do other damage too).

    Get a wide screwdriver under one corner and pop it loose.superglue will break loose under pressure.BTW, how did you manage to do that?

    acetone or a razor blade... also you could try heat (like a hairdryer)

    I would suggest you to contact manufacturer and they would fix this issue for sure and recommend you to not play with your Laptop.

    Hey!
    I suggest you to take your laptop to the toshiba service center...! By the way using gule to fix a loose key makes no sense...! Don't take such advice. Your warrant may be void due to such things. All the best...!
