10-key numeric pad

It would be great if Apple would make the iPad recognize numeric fields (e.g. the credit card field in ecommerce sites) and present a 10-key numeric keypad instead of the horizontal numbers of a 'regular' keyboard.
Or at least give us a key on the 'keyboard' to switch to 10-key mode.
Please!!

  • Numeric-pad 0 key-command behavior

    This isn't explicitly mentioned in the manual, but I reckon my numeric pad 0 key should function as a stop | rewind-to-top key-command. Now, my problem is:
    - it doesn't;
    - this function can't be assigned from the key-command window.
    NB: I use a French keyboard...
    Q1: am I missing something?
    Q2: what work-around would you suggest?
    Q3: how can I define a key as a sequence of commands?

    A key cannot be assigned as a sequence of key commands within Logic, and there isn't a command for exactly the function you want. However, here's a neatly-grouped bunch of key commands that can offer you the functionality you want:
    1. Assign numeric keypad ENTER to key command "play"
    2. Assign numeric keypad 0 to "stop"
    3. Assign numeric keypad "." to "•go to position"
    I think this combination of keys will give you the most flexibility. It would be a piece of cake to get your sequence to start from bar 1 (or any other bar for that matter):
    hit 0
    hit .
    hit 1
    hit ENTER
    That key sequence would take a fraction of a second to execute.
    The zero and/or the "." will function as normal for numerical entry! After a value is entered, they will invoke the various key commands you've assigned.
    There are numerous other Global key commands available that might better serve you, but the above is my suggestion.
    As far as your using a French keyboard, this should, theoretically, make no difference as to whether or not key commands work. Having said that, there are many bugs associated with the Key Commands window, and some key combinations won't work, and F14 and F15 by themselves won't work for anything. But you shouldn't have any problem using the numeric keypad to work.
    If you're having trouble getting key commands to work by "key label", try programming them by "key position" instead.

  • Has anyone had the "equals" key in the numeric pad stop working since installing the Boot Camp 3.3 update

    Has anyone had the "equals" key in the numeric pad stop working since installing the Boot Camp 3.3 update?

    I have been an ardent user of aperture for years now and got used to the great workflow. Ever since version 1 I have been enjoying working with aperture. It is the workflow that kept me from changing.
    I got a new MacPro 12 GB ram, 4TB HDD my library mostly indexed files sits on a raided 2TB for maximum of comfort. I did this in an effort to keep me from writing the posts I writing lately. I do not have the time rally to do this but reality is something different.
    Today I am working on a job I need to finish quickly and in aperture workflow manner. So I switched to full screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen mode and after pressing 'H' for the HUD my screen started flickering. please look at the video I posted in my flickr account: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mawas/4719742585/
    Now this is the second time this happened in a short time after I got a new mac and upgraded to 10.6.4! After the screen had jammed up : http://gallery.me.com/masuwa/100103 I needed to hard boot my mac I am getting nervous!

  • Numeric pad not working correctly mainly in Microsoft Word

    I have an Apple keyboard with an integrated numeric pad integrated on the right.
    Since a while I have a problem that some of the keys on the numeric pad do not work anymore. The + does not work at all and the * toggles show/hide ¶.
    It is not in all programmes, Microsoft Word has the problem but Filemaker Pro does not.
    I tried an other KB same result.
    Any ideas how to fix this?

    Hi Ray
    If you look n my original post you will see I covered that.
    +I tried an other KB same result.+
    So answer is yes.

  • Apple's new wireless keyboard - why no numeric pad?????

    I wanted to go buy one of those new sleek keyboards a while ago and I wanted it to be wireless. But then I found out that the wireless keyboard doesn't have a numeric pad! Why? Really, I don't see the purpose of this! I hope someone at Apple reads this and that they will start producing wireless keyboards with a numeric pad again because until then they won't see my money going to them. Anyone else who shares my opinion about this?
    Stef

    I agree, the numerical keypad is not useful for me. However, I miss the delete, home, end and page up/down keys. It is annoying with the wireless keyboard to have to use backspace to delete.
    Apple should either expand the current wireless model to include these keys or offer the current wired keyboard in wireless version.

  • TrackPoint Keyboard & Numeric Pad don't seem to play nicely

    Hi all.
    I have just bought a 55Y9003 TrackPoint Keyboard and 33L3225 Numeric KeyPad to replace my ancient (circa 1997) full trackpoint keyboard; which, by the way has been sensational.  I was very disappointed to see it leave the product range.
    When I connect the new keyboard and numeric pad to my notebook (Dell 620) pressing the NumLock key on the numeric keypad also puts the keyboard into "NumLock" mode, which defeats the purpose of having the Numeric KeyPad.
    Does anyone know a fix for this ? 
    Needless to say it didn't happen with my old trackpoint keyboard, even on the Dell !
    Much sadness follows ;-(

  • Non functional alpha numeric pad.

    The numeral portion of my alpha numeric pad stopped inputting. Only the numerals don't work other symbols are still functioning. Older iMac Intel, Bluetooth keyboard.

    Move this file to the trash can and then reboot and see if the problem is solved. If so remember to delete the test user account. In Lion the library folder is hidden. You have to go to Finder, press and hold the option key and click on Go and then go down to Library. Once in Library click preferences and the move com.apple.keyboardtype.plist to the trash.

  • How to change dot to comma on numeric pad in Numbers?

    Hi,
    I have bought new iMac with Yosemite system and switched from Excel to Numbers.
    I have Apple's numeric pad keybord. Unfortunately, I dont know how to change the input of the "dot" key on the number pad, so that I get a comma in Numbers sheet, which would allow me to use decimals when working with numbers.
    Cheers
    Mike

    Hi Mike,
    Lucky you with a numeric keypad. I wish I had one .
    Are there any settings in System Preferences > Keyboard?
    Perhaps the Input Sources Tab may help.
    You can also get there from System Preferences > Language & Region > (set your preferences, then click on the Keyboard Preferences button).
    Regards,
    Ian.

  • Numeric pad doesn't work anymore in extended Keyboard

    IMAC numeric pad in old extended keyboard doesn't word anymore . I think something wrong in configuration but can't find it.
    help

    I called Apple and we trouble shot it for over an hour. It turns out that I could use the number pad when logging in under "test" username but not for my own. After deleting a lot of things and restarting, we found that the problem was in this file "com.apple.universalaccess.plist!!! Once we trashed that and restarted it, my number pad worked and now works fine.
    Thanks for taking the time and effort to reply! Your suggestion was the first thing we worked on and ruled that out!

  • TS3048 numeric pad connection

    What brand and model of numeric keypad are you attempting to use?

  • Need help with the following code (Want an input popup with numeric pad)

    Hello,
    I put the following code in an event :
    import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
    value = javax.swing.JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Price", "");
    try {
    Double newPrice = new Double(value);
    line.setPriceTax(newPrice);
    } catch (NumberFormatException e) {
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Not valid number: " + value, "Error", JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
    But this only gives an input popup screen and then i have to use a keyboard instead of my touchscreen to give the input,
    i would rather like it to be a popup input screen with a numeric pad attached.
    Is this possible, and how??
    Thanks in advance.

  • Setting up numeric pad for mac probook

    I just bought a numeric pad (Targus) and plugged it in, but it is not working when I plug it in. The green light is on, but the numbers do not show up when I push it. Other features show up like the + or - button. Do I have to suppress something on my mac in order to use the numeric pad?

  • Numeric pad instead of qwerty

    Hello, I only got my iphone 3gs on Friday. But, I'm surprised that it's only got a qwerty keybpard for text. How come it hasn't got a numeric pad for predictive text? Is one available anywhere? I love the phone. But it's little niggles like this that might make me send it back.

    I see, you mean using the "numeric" phone dial pad for texting. You can't do this with the iPhone. The whole point of a qwerty keyboard is that it is much more efficient for entering text, particularly with predictive correction.
    Once you get used to using the qwerty keyboard, you'll find it a lot more flexible and faster. The more you use it, it will learn your vocabulary to the dictionary.

  • USB Numeric Pad doesn't seem to work in "Screen Sharing" app.

    I have a MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. Recently, purchased a new Targus AKP10AP USB Numeric Pad however, it doesn't seem to work in "Screen Sharing" app but seems to work fine in other apps. Screen\ Sharing.app doesn't seem to be able to recognise the numpad. If I connect a regular usb keyboard all seems to work fine - just the numpad doesn't seem to be recognized.

    First and foremost, XP SP2 is EOL on security updates. If possible I would strongly recommend Windows 7 instead.
    When you install XP, or Windows, fully upgrade first, then add Apple drivers, get it working fine. They say that 15 minutes is enough time to compromise a default XP install, and used as a "honey pot" to test what malware is circulating.
    I don't know about McAfee (I guess Google must) but for now or next time, try with just MS Security Essentials, free and gets high marks, it works.
    There are probably a lot of things to learn on a daily basis.
    But make sure what you install is current and compatible. And have backups and restore points so you can go back to earlier stable system state.
    And yes seems like the Windows partition or OS is not functional.
