Hi Esther,
You asked: Is your current MacBook set to use Software functions
with the F keys?
If so, you might have to press FN+F6 to toggle the num lock on. I
could
use the num pad keys on a MacBook that was purchased last August,
but again, this was still under Tiger.
TK: Just bonks at me when I press f6 or fn-f6. I'm pretty sure that
it did work for me on the MacBooks that I purchased for the school
back in August as well. No biggy to me anyway, I didn't use that
functionality very often.
Have a good one.
Later...
