My button is having hardware issues. You have to push it down really hard to get it to go off. On all my other buttons, the push registers once they click. Now on my shift button it has to click, and then be pushed further. This is really annoying.

I've tried pushing it hard and wiggling it around a bit, but that didn't seem to help at all. Is there any way to pop it off like a computer keyboard button without ruining it to see whats going on underneath?

I think they are glued on. I wouldn't even try it. It would be considered physical damage and the warranty wouldn't cover it probably.

same problem here on my #1 key. I've had it for a while so cannot return it. Is there a way to blast some air in there--I'm hopeful something is just physically obstructing the connection
