Number keys locked

The number keys to the right of key board are locked, if I click on any of them my mouse becomes unusable, can any body help to solve this problem?

Welcome to the forums!
First check System Preferences>Universal Access>Mouse tab, to see if Mouse Keys is enabled.

    In iTunes, locate the name of your iPhone under DEVICES. This opens a "Summary" tab; scroll down until you see a header called "Options." Click on Configure Universal Access. Then deselect Zoom.

  • Magic mouse and number keys not working

    Last year, Wet Baloney had a problem:
    I have a first generation iMac with the wireless keyboard of that vintage and a new Magic Mouse.
    All of a sudden the keys on the numeric keypad part of the keyboard do not work. The number
    keys at the top do work.
    Also (all of a sudden) this computer is not detecting my wireless Magic Mouse. There is no battery
    problem. The mouse works fine with my MacBook Pro.
    Does anyone have any troubleshooting ideas ??
    While this question was not answered, Apple decided to archive it anyway so I'm reposting. I had this problem and my sysadmin wizard figured out what is happening. The solution is to open "System Preferences" --> "Universal Access" and select Mouse. Turn off "Mouse Keys". What I don't know is how that got turned on but it happened when I did a Mac OS update that came out around March 28, 2011. Anyway, that fixed both the mouse and the keypad problems. I'm posting so that someone doing the same search I did can find this answer.

    Thank You for this!! I was having problems using my Numeric keypad on a wired keyboard - when I used the number keys, the wireless magic mouse would lock up - the only way out was to Force Close the Application . . . Turning off "Mouse Keys" and hitting Shift > Clear turned everything back to normal.

    Hello Momma4952
    Welcome to the HP Forums!
    I understand that some keys on your computer keyboard have stopped working. I will do my best to help you out! First, please provide the following information:
    1. The computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your product number
    2. The computer's operating system. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website to determine your Windows operating system.
    3. Have you installed any new hardware on this computer, before the issue appeared?
    4. Have you installed any new software or drivers on this computer, before the issue appeared?
    I would also like you to attempt the following test: Connect an external keyboard to the computer and see if the keys on that keyboard work. If the keys do not work, then we are absolutely certain there is a software/driver conflict. Otherwise, there is the potential of a hardware failure.
    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Control key locks

    i have an hp g-71167dx notebook.  my control key show as being locked and i have to turn off my computer to clear it.  pc is only 6 months old.  are there any solutions ?

    Hey edlibra and da9132,
    There could be a couple of different causes/solutions for this issue. Here are some suggestions.
    First try pressing both the Left and Right Ctrl keys down at the same time. See if that resolves the issue. 
    By default in Windows Ease of Access Center (Start > Type "ease" > Click Ease of Access Center > Click Make the keyboard easier to use > Click Set up Sticky Keys), Lock modifier keys when pressed twice in a row, is checked. Just uncheck that box and hopefully you won't run into that problem anymore. Modifier keys include Ctrl, Shift, and Alt. 
    You could also see if there is a BIOS update for your particular notebooks. I'll need both of your product numbers and whether you're using Windows 7 or Windows 8. Here are the steps to find your product number. Once I have your product number and version of Windows, I can provide you both with direct links to your latest BIOS driver.
    To find the current BIOS version, follow the steps below (taken from here):
    Windows 8 : From the Start screen, type msinfo32 . Click msinfo32 from the list of results.
    Windows 7 and Vista : Click Start , enter msinfo32 in the search field, and then select msinfo32.exe from the list of results.
    Windows XP : Click Start , select Run , enter msinfo32.exe in the Open field, and then click OK .
    In the System Information window under the System Summary category, look for the BIOS Version/Date entry. This is your current BIOS version.
    Figure 1: BIOS Version/Date
    Write down the BIOS version and post it in your reply.
    Please let me know if you have any questions or if these suggestions helped (this could help other users having the same issue). I'll keep an eye out for your reply.

  • Number keys 1 thru 3 are not working

  • After Snow Leopard Install on Intel MacBook Pro, my number keys don't work

    I installed Snow Leopard recently and have since been unable to use my number keys on my Intel based MacBook Pro. I waited for the 6.1 release, hoping it would fix the bug, but it did not. I have reinstalled Snow Leopard, tried num-lock, but have yet to fix it. I am also unable to use the keys shift functions, like the @ symbol.
    Any help would be great!

  • 8.1 Disabled number keys and audio driver

    I have a Lenovo G780 lap top that I just bought about a year in a half ago.  I purchased it from Lenovo with Windows 8.0.  When I updated to 8.1 recently, it wiped out the use of several of my numeric keys on both the number keys at the top across on my keyboard and also on my numeric keypad.  The update also wiped out my Dolby Audio Driver.  Does anyone know how to resolve this?  I already had a Microsoft tech dial into my laptop remotely and he was unable to resolve it and referred me to Lenovo.  Ugh.  BTW - the only way I am able to type several the the different numbers is by connecting an external keyboard to my lap top.  These are the numbers that work using the number keys going across the top of my laptop keyboard: 123456   These are the numbers that work using the laptop number key pad on the right of my laptop keyboard:  13456789  In both cases, the zero key is not working.

    Punkinero,
    For the “unable to start the Dolby audio driver”, you can use the following knowledgebase article to correct it:
    http://support.lenovo.com/en/documents/ht100126
    For the non functioning numeric keys, try doing this:
    - Go to the Control Panel, Ease of Access Center, Set Up Mouse Keys. At the bottom under Other Settings: Use mouse keys when NUM LOCK is: Make sure OFF is selected.
    I hope this helps!
    Cheers, Erich_Lenovo

  • Number keys stopped working

    The number keys on my keyboard stopped working.  Both on the number keypad and the numbers across the top.  This was sudden.  They worked and then the next second, they didn't.  And yes, I have checked the num lock key .  Just the numbers are effected, no other keys.  What's up with that?

    PPC means Power PC, this was the type of micro processor Apple used prior to switching to Intel in 2006. Please update your profile, the way it's set now is it's confusing to those trying to help you.
    On the SMC reset, please follow the instructions VERY carefully. Also it can take 2-3x for a SMC reset to take. Other things to try are resetting the PRAM:
    PRAM RESET
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Also restarting in Safe Mode can help, this clears some caches. It's possible one has become corrupt.

  • Keyboard keys locked

    I have a Lenovo laptop 4446-24U. When trying to log in today all the keys are locked other than the number keys. I have treid ctrl alt delete. num lock, caps lock. Nothing seems to work. Help

    Restart your machine. When the laptop is booting, press Num lock and check if it led turns on.
    Also, you can try with an external keyboard. If it works, maybe your laptopt keyboard is broken.

  • Number keys on Mac Keyboard while using windows 7 in vm fusion

    I am trying to use my wired keyboard with the number keys while in windows 7 through vm fusion on my mac and the number keys don't work. Does anyone know how to get these to work? I can't use them for the calculator or for quicken but when I go back into the mac calculator, they work fine...any answers out there?

    YES!!!!! I usually have difficulty finding answers for issues I have in these forums. But this one helped!
    I just got done installing VMWare Fusion 3 and Windows XP Home on my computer, then later noticed that the number keys were not working. talmy0 is correct, the clear key above the 7 works as the Number Lock Key on Mircosoft keyboards. Thanks, this was helpful.

  • The number keys on wireless keyboard don't work

    the number keys on my Mac desktop wireless keyboard don't work

    Which version of OS X are you using?
    • If Snow Leopard (10.6.x) or earlier, go to System Preferences > Universal Access
    • If Lion (10.7.x) or later. go to System preferences > Accessibility
    In the Mouse section in the preceding, look for the item Mouse Keys - if that function is "on", turn it off.

  • What's wrong with the built-in keyboard on my macbook? The caps button does not work rite, no matter what letter button i push they all come out capitals and the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers!

    the built-in keyboard on my macbook is not functioning right, the number keys when pushed display the special characters instead of the numbers,
    the caps button doesn't work at all, the letter buttons display capitals when pushed whether the caps button is on or off, the shift keys are also out of whack!!
    It seems it somehow got relocated to the "0" button because if you push and hold the zero button down the keyboard seems to operate normally, the number keys display numbers when pushed the letter keys display lower case when pushed but release the zero button and your back in the twilight zone!! Can anybody help me resolve this issue? one more thing im using an external usb keyboard right now and it seems to function properly if that helps any.

    You would do better in the actual macbook pro forums (this is not).

  • Apple Aluminum Wireless Keyboard Pairs, but letter/number keys don't work

    I just got the new Wireless keyboard and I paired it, and the Function keys work fine, and when I was pairing, the number keys worked as well(to type in pairing code). But when I try to type in any search box or type anywhere, it won't. even the numbers won't work. the Tab and Delete keys work though. Along with the function keys.
    The funny thing about this is that the number keys worked when i was pairing, but not now. Also when I start up my Mac and have to type the password in, the letter keys worked. But once on the desktop its a no go.
    Please help.

    24 hours later, the initial fix resetting the Universal Access settings as discussed above, the keyboard proved to be so flaky, that I took it back to Apple and exchanged it for a new one. The weakness seems to be in the bluetooth communication perhaps, with the keyboard accepting the new settings and then forgetting them somehow. So if you are a user reading this thread and you aren't getting any joy from the solution above, the solution is to take/send the keyboard back to Apple for a new one. The one I have now works just fine. It paired up much more quickly and it is typing this note without any issues. So far. I also picked up a wired keyboard in case I have to throw this one against the wall if it starts screwing up like the other one. Either way, I am covered.

  • HP G62-348CA number keys and arrow keys not working

    Good day Experts! Can someone help me fix my laptop? I got G62-348CA unit. only number 5 and 6 in my number keys are working and also arrow keys down and right are not functioning. at first it was built with windows 7 home premium 64bit but then i have to reformat my laptop with windows 7 ultimate but i dont have available 64bit so i install 32bit of the OS. before i install the OS, number keys and arrow keys are working fine but after I reformat my laptop with ultimate 32bit, the said keys are not working. please guys help me. im having trouble with my unit and i dont know what to do. its pretty bad i dont have any idea. all the best with you guys and i'm hoping for your fast and kind response. thank you!

    Because the operating system does not affect the keyboard in that way . .. If the operating system has issues it would switch keys or assign wrong characters.
    I have replaced over 200 keyboards because of such issues
