I mean that I really have to pound the keys on the keyboard, or I press them too lightly, or I hit and release too quickly. I found that that's the reason that some of what I thought I saved wasn't saved, though that may be a function of the soundpart of my Mac not working properly. Now I'm holding the save key down longer until K hear the sound of see the blue line go to the end. It's possible that either my keyboard needs o be washed again or is wearing out. I'll try washing it; I haven't done that in a long time.
