    My Apple Keyboard Problem

    Everything was working fine but now I can't seem to use the number keys to the right of the keyboard? Can't see a scroll lock button anywhere. Am I missing something?

    Apple Keyboards dont have a num-lock key, unlike windows keyboards where the keypad doubles as a directional pad (hence the arrow keys and num-lock button). What are you using your apple keyboard with? An apple mac or a pc?

    ok...just had a thought. Sometimes when I boot up xp, the numlock is switched off, I have no idea why though. Go into Start, Programs, Accessories, Accessibility then On Screen Keyboard, and click the "nlk" key on screen. Now try using your mac keyboard. Hope this helps

    The num lock key is exactly where you'd expect it to be
