My friend smilled milk in her keyboard (doh). She took out some keys to wipe off the milk but now the keys dont seem to work properly when she put them in. This is a toshiba laptop, is there any special trick to putting them back or are they not removable in the first place? Thanks for your help guys

How did she go about removing the keys? I don't have any first hand experience, but I don't think they are removable keys. Of course try pressing them on, Look at the back of the removed keys, and see it there are slots or something that would allow it to be pressed back on, or if there is eveidence of broken plastic, meaning its glue time

i have absolutely no clue how she got them out, but she says nothing is broken and when she puts them on and pushes they are lopsided

they use little clips that look like folding table legs, she needs to snap them in the right way.

also make sure the "nipple" is perky ^_^
