Remap number pad key?

Hello from France.
I use an external Apple wireless keyboard with a French layout and I want to remap one single key on the right-side number pad. Is this possible?

Hi,
for activation of number keys you usually have to press the so-called 'clear'-key.
It's the one directly above the '7'-key of the number pad.
And you usually have to do that only once, as Windows 'remembers' that setting.
In Windows it's called the 'NumLock'-key.
Regards
Stefan

  • Number Pad Keys Aren't Recognized

    I am unable to get the number pad keys (on the right side of the keyboard) to work on either of my Apple Keyboards (wireless and wired aluminum). The number pad keys function when I move the keyboards over to my G5, so I think the keyboards themselves are not the problem. Neither keyboard has a number lock key.
    Any ideas as to why these number pad keys on the right side of my keyboards don't work?
    Thanks

    Malcolm: You were correct. I went into Universal Access and turned off Mouse Keys. I can now you the number pad. Thanks so much.

  • Ibm t30 alternate number pad - keys U I O J K L

    How can you disable this alternate number pad on the T30?  It's stuck on - a co-worker called me on the phone in another city, and has most regular alpha keys working, but the certain keys that make up the horizontal/vertical number pad on the keyboard is completely stuck on - how is this disabled/enabled?
    Tried numerous FN commands, and absolutely no luck - seems to be only a problem when logged in - but before logging in, using the keyboard works fine.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Look at your keyboard carefully and find which key has the NumLk on it.  It will be Fn+thatkey to toggle NumLock off and on.

  • BUG: Ctrl+Alt+ number to switch modules only works with number pad

    Really annoying, since this worked nicely in the beta. If, for example, you hold down Ctrl+Alt+1 (pressing 1 on the top row of the keyboard) to switch to the Library Module, it doesn't work. If you use 1 on the numeric keypad, it works fine. What's the big deal, you ask? Well, try using the number pad on a laptop - you either get to use the number keys or the regular keys, so this shortcut is essentially useless on anything other than a full-size keyboard.

    Windows treats Ctrl + Alt shortcuts as special. They are used as hotkeys for desktop icons, and if a key is used for that purpose, it overrides any use within a program. I did a little research, and setting a desktop hotkey to 3 will cause your LR symptoms, where you can't used the normal numbers and have to use the keypad to switch modules. On the other hand, you'd probably be seeing the effect of using the non-number-pad keys (they'd launch a program), so it's a mystery.
    In my testing, I noticed that the Firefox browser uses that key combination to switch between its tabbed sessions. If you're running that program, you could test to see if it exhibits the same symptoms.

  • Number Pad Doesn't Respond

    Hey,
    My computer doesn't recognize my number pad key strokes on either the laptop or my external keyboard (it's an Apple USB Aluminum). Sometimes this even freezes my computer, especially in Safari.
    I've got a early 2008 Black MacBook that I bought in October of that year. I've been using an external monitor with attached keyboard and mouse for 85% of the time since then.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I may have figured this one out...
    I had some weird settings under Assistant devices that half enabled mouse keys. There might be a bug, but more likely this was user error.

  • Satellite P500 - After BIOS update the number pad isn't working anymore

    I just got a Satellite P500 and am running Windows 7. I downloaded all of the latest drivers and updated the system bios to version 1.70 (from Toshiba's support website). Now, my number pad on the keyboard is not working.
    The numlock light is on and when I hit the "6" key on the number pad, it turns the light on/off but the behavior of the other keys does not change whether it is on or off. The "-" key enters a "6" but none of the other keys (except "enter" does anything.
    I removed the keyboard driver and restarted to re-install the keyboard driver but that had not effect. The keyboard did work for a few days after I flashed the bios but seems to have stopped since I started using a USB mouse. I tried uninstalling the USB mouse driver but that did not do anything either (it was a Logitech driver).
    Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance

    I'm having this exact same issue, Did the BIOS update, which fixed the problem for Vista X64, formatted the machine to windows 7, Number pad keys except 6 and - Register as the Fn Button, Bringing up the function shortcuts display when pressed in windows, recovered from 7 to Vista X64 using Built in recovery partition, Problem still exactly the same. i have reset BIOS to defaults twice now, which has not resolved the issue. the next step will be to reflash the bios with the update again to see if this will fix the issue as it did once before. Laptop Model P500/025 Or Part number PSPE8A-025002
    *EDIT: I reflashed the BIOS with 1.70 Again and the number pad is back to normal. Seems like an extreme fix for a silly problem. Every time you format you have to Reflash your bios, risky no?*

  • Number Pad Keyboard Keys wrongly mapped

    Hi Folks,
    Hope someone out there can help.  I am using a Mac Full Keyboard, ie Number Pad included, and recently the * and / Keys on the Number have started producing ' (Single Quote) and ; (Semi-Colan) instead.
    Is my keyboard knackered, or have I accidently remapped my keys?
    Fingers crossed someone can help,
    Treders

    If I ddn't know better, & I don't, I'd hahly suspect any KB by Apple.
    But then they've really messed up the OS, might try some workarounds...

  • Apple Keyboard with number pad the V key will not work

    Apple Keyboard with number pad the V key will not work.  Everyother key works but not the V.  I have a MacBook Pro.  Any suggestions?

    Call AppleCare and get it replace if it's under warranty; otherwise, get a new one. They're only $49 USD.

  • Extending F-Keys - is there a F-Key number pad?

    I have the wireless apple keyboard which only has twelve f-keys. Does anyone know of a device like a number pad that would add some additional F-keys which I could assign actions to?
    Please don't suggest the following - I am aware of these options and they don't resolve a very specific issue/workflow I am trying to enable.
    1) just use the fully apple keyboard that have extended F keys
    2) use modifier keys for your F keys for addition functions
    I have tons of quick keys that I use across the OS, and across apps, and I am trying to find single key presses (without modifiers) that I can press to increase functionality and apple's multipurpose Fkey option makes my goals difficult?
    Any suggestions? I love the wireless keyboard, but I just want to be able to add additional keys.
    Thanks!

    Check out the Belkin Nostromo N52... It's designed as a gaming input device, but it should suit your needs nicely. It has 14 keys (all programmable, even macros) as well as a scroll wheel, 8-way D-pad, and several other buttons.
    I'm 99% sure they have OSX drivers for it...
    Saitek makes something similar as well, but I don't know about OSX compatibility...

  • Number pad on 10 key keyboard and Windows

    For some reason, my 10 key does not work on my keyboard on the Windows (XPSP3) partition. Anyone know of a button to use to turn on the number lock on it? It currently works as if the number lock is not on.
    Thanks

  • I tried to install maverick and now my keyboard keys F10,F11, 7,8,9 on the number pad don't work on my iMac. How do I resolve this?

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • Bluetooth 10-Key Number Pad

    Does any one know of an external 10-Key number pad that will work with Apples built in bluetooth.I have heard that many of the bluetooth number pads on the market do not work with the built in bluetooth in Apples machines. I do not want to use usb or an adapter of any kind. I want to pair it with the built in bluetooth. Just wondering if anyone has been able to pair one or know of one that will work. Thanks

    Hello eb:
    A Google search produced this (one of many) result:

    At least one of the BT number pads purports to be Mac-compatible. Since I have no interest in this device, i did not do any further research.

  • Satellite P500 (PSPE8A-01R002) - Number pad and num lock not working

    After upgrading to Windows 7 the number pad and num lock on my P500 PSPE8A-01R002 is not working.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Since keys worked in vista then its reasonable to assume there is something in the "software". I doubt that windows can make changes to the bios though there is Toshiba HWsetup but that does't look to do anything relevant.
    I don't know what conclusions could be drawn from the results of trying an external keyboard.
    How about trying various boot sequences such as direct to the command prompt and direct to safe mode to pin down it the problem is specific to your W7 installation? - why not try making a bootable cd (i'd have to google to find out how but you should be able to try windows 98 or even DOS - there was also a run from cd/dvd version of Linux and there's also the new Google os to consider).
    Within W7 the only things that affect the keyboard would be settings in control panel > ease of access where the keypad can be set up as a mouse or keys remapped so num lock is "something else" and, clutching at straws, I presume keyboard language settings - are there any languages that require use of a numeric key pad to give a full character set (keyboard set to foreign language and Windows set to "English" so that the foreign character set isn't displayed?

  • HT1212 Hello. I'm having a problem with my mini iPad. When I went to sign on yesterday the number pad moved up and now it is out of site. I can't sign on the only thing that shows is the Apple logo.

    Hello. I'm having a problem signing onto my iPad mini. When I went to sign on yesterday the number pad to sign on moved upward and now it is out of site. Now I can't sign on the only thing that shows is the Apple logo.

    Have you tried to give your iPad a reset? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if it helps.
