My laptop is typing on its own continuously ..

Restart holding down: command option O and F. Keep holding down those 4 keys until you see text on a light background. At the end of the text will be 'release keys to continue'. Release the 4 keys and type: reset-nvram hit return, then type: set-defaults hit return, then type: reset-all and hit return. The iBookG4 should restart with all default settings restored.

Replace or clean your keyboard

You have a bad keyboard. Try to literally massage the keyboard, trying to unhooked the keys
Good luck

Since coffee was spilled on the laptop keyboard it needs to be removed because they hold a lot of moisture that continue to seep on the motherboard and eventually cause more problems, should correct the typing issue.

you need to repalace the keyboard

your palm might be hitting the touchpad causing your mouse cursor to move and jump around... try to type with only your fingers hitting the keys and the back of your hand raised and not hitting any part of your laptop... hope this helps....

Touch pad mouse.
This unit has a "seamless touchpad with four-way integrated scroll button".
Yours is probably faulty, causing the cursor to be random.
Try disabling it and connecting a USB mouse.

I have this happen to me all the time when typing on a laptop keyboard; sometimes my thumb hits the mouse pad, and depending on where the cursor is at that time, I type in an area where I already typed.

My recommendation is to either be careful when typing on a laptop keyboard, or if you're able, install an eternal keyboard (USB). That should take care of the problem, if I understand your question.

Aha!
You have to activate your OS,
On your laptop you have a key for the vista, type that key in, if that dosent work you must call and activate your vista. You do that like this way:
1:) if you have a valied licens you just call that number that appears if you continue when it ask you to use the automated phone system
2:) call that number, type in those numbers you see on you laptop given to you when u get the phone number.
3:) Listen carrefull cos you going to get an actication code, and thats a lot of number, whrite them down so you dont forget them,
4:) type in those numbers you get when you be asked to do that in the activation window on your laptop
5:) continue the boot up, vista will now check to the number you typed in are valied and you will never have to to this again, if you dont format your laptop.

If you dont have a valied licens, Buy one!

Good luck to you M8!

make sure the mouse cursor is further down the page from where you are typing. If your text continues over the arrow of the cursor and any static electricity or touch is detected by the glide pad of a laptop or S.E. from a mouse it will move the text cursor to where the mouse cursor is.

This is a continual problem with sensitive computers.

sorry there is no permanent "FIX"
