Hello David, I do have a bluetooth numeric keypad I no longer want.
It worked fine with my old pc, but have not yet tried with my mac. If you are interested I can get help to test it on my mac mini to see if it works. If interested. please contact me off list at harrisonc...@harrisonclan.karoo.co.uk regards Ian On 16 December 2011, at 14:18, David Griffith wrote: > A few days ago I posted a question about numeric keypads and the mac.
