Barzeski Fri, 16 Oct 2009 19:40:04 +0000 http://nslog.com/?p=6375#comment-55790 A commenter <a href="http://nslog.com/2009/09/07/snow_leopard_loses_my_keyboard">on the earlier post</a> pointed to an Apple Discussions board. I'd been putting my computer to sleep and waking it up to solve the issue, but it turns out there's a simpler way: kill the dock. I've made an AppleScript and assigned it a keyboard shortcut now so I can just fire up the script - <code>tell application "Dock" to quit</code> - when Spaces screws up my keyboard. And yeah, I'm kidding about the keyboard shortcut, obviously. I use the mouse to select the script from the FastScripts menu. A commenter on the earlier post pointed to an Apple Discussions board.
