I have a G4 i-mac and useing the standard keyboard that came with it. Every now and then I am having to prise the space bar up with a knife as it gets stuck.
Can I remove the keys to give them a clean? |

Most keyboards are tough enough to take it. Just pop it out carefully. Clean/lube it with something gentle. Snap it back in.
My kids popped some keys off my iBook keyboard. One was cracked beyond repair. I asked smalldog.com about keyboard repair kits. They just sent me a replacement key, free. Little things mean a lot, and all that... |

If it's uneven, pop it off again, then re-seat it. Some keyboards have a floppy sort of clip that has to snap in just so.
