Number keys on calculator key board

For some reason the number keys on the calculator side of the key board are not working. I can not use them to conduct any calculations on the calculator. Can anyone help??

Hi duggg,
updating your OSX to the latest version as baltwo proposed is a good idea.
Also, maybe you accidentally activated Mouse Keys http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/8421.html
And if not, have you tried the 'Clear key' (the on above the '7'-key on the Numpad)
Regards

  • HT1689 my ipad mini retina display is disabled.  I believe I know the cause.  I packed it with my blue tooth key board in my back pack.  The key board likely entered various keys and the ipad believes these entries were invalid password attempts.  I am tr

    my ipad mini retina display is disabled because my blue tooth key board made number key entries while in my back pack.   How do I re-enable?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

    Hi,
    One way to get a € is to turn on Number lock, hold down the alt key and type 0128 on the number pad ( not the numbers that run across the top of the keyboard ).

  • Key board of dv6 is not working properly

    dv6-2106eo model number and product: wd366ea#uuw,Windows 7 64-bit,
    key board use to malfunction like if i type a the cap lock goes on , if type d something else comes on screen(some of those keys are working fine but some are totally mixed up ), previously it was fine but once i tried to clean the fan with pressurised air  without opening any of those screw ( dit it from outside ) then it happened , any suggestion will be welcomed 

    Hum. Cleaning off the keyboard with air should not have made the keyboard not function properly. I would recommend working though this document to make sure the keyboard language is set up properly:
    Incorrect Characters are Displayed when Using Keyboard
    Let me know if this resolves the issue. 
    Thanks!

  • My key board is stuck in the fuction setting only while in fire fox. i can`t use the question mark i only get this É

    My baby must of hit a combination of keys while no one was looking and i don`t have use of some of my keys any more it`s like my function setting on the key board is stuck on. It only does it while in firefox though my keyboard works normally otherwise

    In addition to the above:
    Windows remembers the keyboard layout setting per application and you may have changed the keyboard layout by accident via a keyboard shortcut.
    See:
    * http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306993 - HOW TO: Use the Language Bar in Windows XP
    The default keys to rotate the layout is a combination (Ctrl+Shift or Alt+Shift) that can easily be used in Firefox to activate a menu item.<br />
    To avoid an unintentional switch, assign a specific key sequence (Alt/Ctrl+Shift+number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate layouts (Alt+Shift or Ctrl+Shift)

  • My lenovo G505s shuts down suddenly and key board stops working at times

    Hi,
    I have bought this laptop 10 days ago, I am facing two problems 1st is, it shuts down(suddenly off not proper shut down) while working without showing any error message, and the problem no 2 is its key board stops working at times, system is working fine but all the buttons of key board are not responding. it will work when I restart the system.
    please help what should I do, could it be replaced?

    Welcome to the Lenovo Community !
    Sorry to hear of your problems.  I would suggest that you try a reset of the BIOS just to rule out any hardware conflicts the system may have.  Try this........
    1. Unplug the charger / adapter.
    2. Remove the battery.
    3. Press and hold the Power Button for 15 seconds.
    4. Re-install the battery, plug in the charger / adapter if needed and power up the system to see if the problem was resolved.
    If the problems weren't resolved by doing the reset then I suggest you contact Lenovo Support for warranty service.  Both the problems you mentioned could be related to faulty hardware and the service center would be best equipped to check out your new laptop.  You can find the phone number for Lenovo Support in your country or area by using the link below....

  • While using Illustrator or Photoshop I seem to be hitting a shortcut to lock my key board. Other shortcuts work but can not type anything?

    While using Illustrator or Photoshop I seem to be hitting a shortcut to lock my key board. Other shortcuts work but can not type anything?

    You are planning to do a number of things, so let me first make a suggestion about the overall approach. Instead of: "Before I make a clone of my hard drive I would like to fix this problem so I only have one account with everything in it but I do not know what to move ... or how to safely move it", I would make that clone immediately. And leave it alone until you have completed the reconfiguring and rearrangements you plan to do. This way, if you accidentally do something that needs to be undone, your clone is there with all the originals. By the way, this is the approach I always adopt, whenever I have to do anything drastic with an existing installation.
    After all the rearranging etc. of the main drive you just make a new clone that erases the previous one.
    The "Deano" account doesn't show up when I go to System Preferences:Accounts. So I assume I must have done something wrong.
    This would suggest to me there is only one account, i.e. the principal, or Admin account. Why do you think there is a second account?
    Where should I keep all my work files?
    You can keep them where ever it is most convenient. As you know, you can create folders within folders, and there is nothing special about the Documents folder. Feel free to ignore it, if that's the way you want to work. You can direct your downloads, the default "save to" locations etc. to the appropriate places, as you work.
    Can I create a new place for all my work files and just move them? I know I will have to update linked files within the various software packages but this is not a problem.
    By all means.
    .. can it be directly on the HD like my Applications folder etc.?
    Indeed, yes. Or even on a different hard drive (or partition of the same drive).
    And best wishes for the new year, to you too.

    Tip: To isolate an issue related to a portion of the Multi-Touch display, follow these steps:
    Open the Maps application and double-tap each corner, then the center, to verify that it zooms in to each section.
    If a specific area is affected in another application, note the location and try to verify touch functionality for that location in the Maps application.
    On iPhone and iPod touch, you can also use Calculator:
    Open the calculator app to test all but the top row of the screen. Press each button on the calculator and verify activity.
    Have a nice day,

  • My built-in  key board has stopped working how can i fix this?

    my built-in key board has stopped working all of a sudden how can i fix this?

    Did you spill any liquids on your keyboard?  If you are in the habit of eating and drinking while using your computer, the keyboard is probably dirty.  Use a can of compressed air or a vacuum hose to remove the debris underneath the key.  If that does not work, you may actually have a hardware issue.
    If you Apple Care, call them and get a case number.  Otherwise, take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP.  Whichever is more convenient for you.  Liquid damage is not covered under Apple's standard 1 year warranty or Apple Care.
    NOTE:  If you are out of warranty and purchased the computer with a credit card, discuss the warranty issue with the credit card company which you purchased the computer with.   They are the only ones who can at this point cover the computer after it goes out of warranty with the manufacturer (Apple).
          If you have Homeowners insurance, place a claim with them.

  • Key board hangs up randomly with 8155B.

    Key board hangs up randomly while running my application .It works fine initialy ,after some time it gets hang and after restarting the pxi it detects the keyboard finely .I am not running any special application but the one which i use regularly .The OS in PXI is Windows 98 .

    Roopal,
    I am assuming that your controller used to work fine and the keyboard start hanging up recently. How recent?
    The PXI-8155B controller was released aproximately 4 years ago. The keyboard hanging issue could be caused by a keyboard PS-2 connector with bad contacts (if this is the case, you might need to send your controller for repair.), or that your keyboard itself has a bad cabel or PS-2 connector. Have you tried with another keyboard? Do you have another controller that you could use to run the same application? This last troubleshooting step coudl help you find out if this is a hardware issue or a software issue.
    If your computer hangs only when running your application, could you give a short description of what your application does? Does it communicates with the serial ports?
    Does your keyboard hang if you are not running your application? This is, does your keyboard hang if the controller is just showing the desktop and not running any application? If so, it could be that there are some corrupted files in the system. You could try reinstalling the operating system. Before doing that I recommend you to back up all the data that is in your hard-drive. You can reinstall the operating system using the operating system files that are saved in the C:\IMAGES folder in your PXI-8155B controller. You could re-install the operating system wihtout erasing any data, or you could erase all the data inyour hard-drive but the images folder, and re-install the operating system from scratch. More detail steps on how to do this are in the following KnowledgeBase:
    KnowledgeBase 1KBB15G4: How Do I Restore the Operating System on a VXI or PXI Embedded Controller?
    Please feel free to contact the Applications Engineering Department directly, and we will help you troubleshoot. To do this, create a service request number at http://www.ni.com/ask. There, choose "Phone NI" as the communication method.

  • 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.

  • Number keys not working on a MacBookPro11,3

    My machine is a 15-inch Retina MBP, late  2013 running OS X 10.9.4.
    The number pad  on an external keyboard works. Regular number keys on an external keyboard do not.
    The problem affects all ten digits, not just 1-9. All he computer does is give me an alert chirp when I press them.
    Number keys work in single user mode, so this is  some kind of software issue.
    Mouse Keys is off.
    I'm not using text to speech.
    I can click the keys in the Keyboard Viewer, except for the number keys. They chirp too.
    I reinstalled the system and it didn't solve the problem.
    Oddly, number keys DO work if I'm typing into a password field.
    I've searched this board as well as the internet to no avail. Has anyone else had this problem or have any ideas?
    Thanks.
    -Shan

    So they always work normally except at which web site?
