Cannot enter numbers from num pad or keyboard

Cannot enter numbers from the number pad or the keyboard.

That's an odd one, alright! When you state "format" I presume you're not somehow inserting the hyphen, correct? You're dialing 5551234 or 5555551234.
If a Restore does not correct the problem, presumably a Reset will not either, but try that (reset is press and hold the sleep/wake and home buttons until the Apple logo comes up (~10 seconds, ignore the slide to power off prompt, wait for the logo).
Else, I suspect a visit to an Apple Store (or a call to AppleCare) is your best bet.

I cannot enter numbers in my calculator using the keypad - only using the mouse - anyone know why?

I can't enter numbers into the calculator using the keypad - however I can use the calculator with the kwyboard numbers or the mouse using the nu,mbers on the calculator. In preferences, - keyboard - it says that the F6 key toggles the num lock system - on my computer the F6 key does nothing. I am running Snow Leopard, haven't downloaded Lion yet. Anyone help me with this?

HT4623 cannot enter access code letters .the touch pad only shows numbers

cannot enter letters in viber access the touch pad only shows numbers

Hello,
I have the exact same problem now. I setup Lotus Traveler and enabled my code lock. When I entered the default code 12345, it asks for a new code with numbers and letters but I only have numbers available to choose on the keypad. So I am locked out and have had to go back to my old phone. There are no other options on the keypad.
Did you find a solution?

Apple Keyboard and Win 8: Cannot type numbers ! Looking for driver or workaround.

I have just upgraded to Windows 8 on one of my Mac Minis. Alas, the Apple keyboard cannot be used to enter numbers in Windows 8 ! Is there a new driver out there that fixes this ? I have been unable to find one but I may have conducted a faulty search.

You may have to wait for the "official" Boot Camp drivers to be released since it's not oficially supported by Mac yet.

Cannot display more than 16 significant digit numbers from Oracle

The WebI Report cannot display more than 16 significant digit numbers from an Oracle data type field.
This occurs for both an ODBC and native driver connection to Oracle.
The data is defined by Number Data Type in Oracle, and view correctly in Universe, but display incorrectly in WebI report which created by InfoView.
I know BOE XIR2 has this behavior, but it seems that XI3.0 and XI3.1 also have this problem.
If this behavior in XI3.0 and XI3.1 perform by design? or it's a bug? and Why?
Thanks!

Hi Sarah,
Precision limitation of a Web Intelligence filter constant :
In an Oracle database, a Number field type can store up to 38 digits. When creating a Web Intelligence report in the Java Panel, a condition is specified for this field (that is represented in the universe as a number), and a constant number is entered for its value, only up to 15 digits of precision are retained.
For example, if 1234567890123456789 is entered, the value becomes 1234567890123460000.
Or, if you have a column in database which has a number like 123.123456789012345678 it will display only 123.123456789012.
Cause
The reason for this limitation is that Java Panel represents a number internally as a Double field type with only 15 digits precision. This is by design.
Resolution
The only workaround is to change the field type to a Character field; however, doing so means losing the ability to perform calculations and/or sorting on the field.
This issue has been raised as an Enhancement Request and given Track ID # ADAPT00908702.

Cannot enter BIOS (F2) w/Apple USB AluThin Keyboard --- Win XP w/NO PS2

Greetings,
I love my Apple aluminum thin USB wired keyboard with my Windows-based PC, but...
I'm d*mn frustrated.
I cannot enter my BIOS by pressing the F2 key at start up.
I also cannot press 'any key' when trying to boot from a disc.
The keyboard is unrecognizable to the PC until the Windows XP Pro OS loads, then it works perfectly, typing on it now.
The F2 button works as normal once XP Pro is loaded.
My mother board does not have any PS2 ports (it is an Intel DG33LT board). So I cannot plug in a PS2 based keyboard to enter the BIOS or boot from a disc.
I've read all about going into the BIOS and turning on the support of Legacy USB, etc. However, this is useless, as I cannot enter the BIOS in the first place.
I'm trying to upgrade my computer that I use primarily for producing my income via product design, 2 GB of RAM just doesn't cut it with Illustrator and Photoshop running at the same time.
I'd like to install Vista so it can support the 8GB of RAM I purchased. Can't boot from the DVD to install it.
Any suggestions?

Yes, easy solution.
I figured the obvious culprit was the keyboard itself. I was curious if there was a software fix, etc... rather than going to the store and dropping $20 on a keyboard just to access the BIOS/boot cd.
Well, I dropped the $20 on a junker keyboard, and it all works fine.
Also- do not correct my online etiquette.

I can't sync my photos on my iPhone 5 or IPad 2 from my MacBook Pro. It tells me my phone/pad cannot be read from or written to. Any ideas?

No it't okay I finally figured it out!
I went to 'devices and printers'
it listed all the devices plugged in and on 'ipod' and 'iphone' there was a yellow '!' I clicked it and it troubleshooted the issue and now everything is working yay!

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

After updating with ios7, I cannot proceed because I cannot enter my password since it uses Greek letters but the keyboard available is Latin. How can I change the keyboard to Greek?

try tapping holding on the key that would be most similar to the letter you want to enter, that will bring up a menu of other characters similar to that character and maybe the greek letter will be included in that menu

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

I just downloaded IOS 8.5.3 on my iPad3. Now I cannot open it. Whenever I touch the screen Siri tells me what I am doing, but nothing works: I cannot enter my password and I cannot slide to open. I am frozen out from my iPad

you are right about the IOS number. I couldn't access my iPad so I guessed and guessed wrong about the number. It was the latest upgrade offered by Apple for my iPad, which I dowloaded and installed. I have done some sleuthing and discovered that some of the problems are the result of the Accessibility - Voiceover being activated. Once I figured that out, I was able to navigate somewhat better, though I now cannot turn Voiceover off. I slide the button and it just revert to On. The other problem I have now discovered that the iPad only rarely will accept my password. This is a password that I know and love and use many times during the day (as all of us iPhone and iPad users do) Now it seems to reject my password 80+% of the time. I would disable password protection if I could. I think I am going to have to talk to Apple directly but wonder if anyone else has had this kind of trouble with the newest IOS. It worked fine on my iPhone.
I will try triple tapping the home button if I can ever get it opened again.
