Hi all, This problem is now solved. Just for info, The mac that had the problems wasn't mine but someone had enabled speakable items and that made the escape key useless.
If you set the speakable items to off/disabled, the escape key works as expected. Thanks.

Unfortunately that makes no sense and One air works fine while the other doesn't. Is there any settings I can try without reinstalling?

Scott, Under Mavericks, the escape key's functionality changed. You can press Option-Escape key to actuate a standard escape key function. Also, VO has a general escape key, when VO-Escape key is pressed. However, the VO sequence doesn't always work for me, while the Option-Escape key, pretty much, does the trick all the time. Hope this helps, CJ On Jun 2, 2014, at 7:41 PM, Scott Erichsen <serich...@scotterichsen.com> wrote: Hi all, I have a really strange problem with a macbook air running Mavericks. The escape key is working under VMWare fusion on Windows 7 64bit, but will not work on OSX at all. I can't get out of menues, or use the escape key in any way. It's as if it's broken and just does nothing. Short of reinstalling the entire OS and everything else, does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.
