Uh? Eric the CAR guy?
And numlock has a light on it? Can you check if that key is broken?
Mac might not be compatible with that numeric pad. Find a mac keyboard? That should def work.
This may be EricTheCarGuy, BUT, This is also the forum for ANYTHING including topic that have nothing to do with automotive subjects.
Num lock LEDs do not work on Apple computers. I am using an OEM Apple Pro Keyboard. Its not the one for this model of a eMac but it IS a Apple Keyboard for the 700MHz and 800MHz eMac and iMac G4 computers. I reinstalled the OS and the numeric pad works fine.
Ah I see, it is a Mac keyboard. Also: why not post this on a Macforum, that was my question.
Nice to see that fixed it.
Finally: PC all the way 😛
Technically a Mac IS A PC PC=Personal Computer a Mac IS a Personal Computer.
Second i have been banned on MacRumors. I use a Logitech Mac-Compatible (by mac compatible i mean apple specific keys like Command and Option) on my PowerMac. I never got a Mac keyboard with it but i do plan on getting one.
Oh, that sucks that you are banned there. And PC generally implies Windows or Linux. Mac is the same components, but aren’t called PCs.
What kinda car you got? (not to derail, but want to know)
What you mean im confused?
