Keyboard problems.

snollup · 2009-06-30 17:04:19

Hi all, All of a sudden the number pad on my iMac keyboard has stopped working. The numbers at the top of keyboard still work fine. I've tried both a USB & bluetooth keyboard and the problem is with both. This would lead me to believe it a s/w problem rather then the keyboard. Anyone seen this one before? Thanks
