Keyboard no longer works

I have a Mac Mini with OSX 10.11.1 2011 environment. I use an IOGear KVM with an aluminum full USB Apple keyboard. When I upgraded to El Capitan I had to manually set the keyboard type to a 101-102 keyboard because when I hit the button to the right of the left SHIFT key it showed that it was unknown to the keyboard. It worked fine for a month. I had been running Parallels v10 with Windows 8. I installed the version of Windows to Windows 10. Now for some strange reason the number keys in the numeric keypad do not work. Press 'clear', 'is', ' * ', -', and '+' more to do. " Initially, I thought that maybe they are translated into cursor keys, but after trying to use them as cursor keys in a spreadsheet, I found that this is not the case.  I read somewhere that the NUMLOCK combination on some keyboards is shift + delete I tried but it does not solve the problem. I have to use the KVM because my job requires me to run tests on Windows systems. A complementary, all on the keyboard note worked except the keystrokes to start. If I need to start and use a startup sequence I need to plug the keyboard directly on the Mini. And Yes, I tried to plug the keyboard directly into the Mini and the keys still don't work. ARGH!

any help would be appreciated,

John

Well, I found the keyboard moves the cursor. I also found that the option + F5 command can change back to numbers.

I just had to do a little more research.

Thank you

    Keyboard no longer works. At least remove them and T keys do nothing. I have blue tooth, forgotten unit redefined and networks... Any other ideas please? Thanks in advance X

    Try the keyboard on another Mac or PC. If it still fails, you know the keyboard is broken. You can also try the keyboard when it is started in recovery as a basic test mode. That will tell you if the keyboard works well when a single copy of the operating system is running without all your installed applications.

    Select the option to browse the web to try the keyboard in Safari in recovery mode.

    If the device is 2010, you should seek to buy a new device, otherwise if it is new & still in warranty, return it to the store or the manufacturer.

  • Mark this shortened Page keyboard no longer works

    For some reason, mark it this Page (control-D on Mac) no longer works. I hit him, and nothing happens.

It worked the last time I made a bookmark (a week ago). No new added modules, nothing since then different makes. Just stopped working. I have to go to the menu and choose manually mark them this Page. Keyboard shortcut does not work.

    Can you try to access the Firefox in Mode safe mode to see if the problem persists or if it opens? You can follow the instructions below to start in this mode.

    • Go to help > restart with disabled modules
    • When Firefox closes and opens again, select start in Safe Mode

    If Firefox works great after the safe boot mode, then it is probably one of your extensions of misconduct. You can enable your add-ons on one until you find the extension in conflict.

    Probably nothing, it's probably a fluke. Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM by iMac Intel SCM and reset the PRAM. If this does not work, try a USB keyboard to test, if it works then your original keyboard has failed and must be replaced.

  • Sculpt Microsoft comfort keyboard no longer works correctly

    Several times a day my keyboard no longer meets all the keystrokes or sometimes double on strikes. I can type a sentence and find only the occasional shows on the screen or more characters I typed (e.g. "character" indicates "cacter" or "ccchaaraccterr"). At first, I thought it was the batteries in the keyboard, but have lost a few sets of batteries, I found that out the receiver to the USB port and plug it into another port works for maybe an hour or two, and then it happens again.  Putting the receiver into the original USB port solved the problem again. Removal of the receiver and put it back in the same port do not solve the problem.  Any ideas gratefully received.

  • Wireless keyboard no longer works with Bootcamp that run under El Capitan

    I have an iMac 21.5 mid-2011 "2.7 Ghz, 12 GB with a Bootcamp with Windows 8 partition is installed.

    Everything that used to work very well.

    End of September / beginning of October, I installed El Capitan, but never checked Bootcamp as only a few client projects require me to switch platforms.

    A recurring job that needs to be updated with Windows apps landed on my desk today.

    So I started Bootcamp/Wiindows and everything seemed normal.

    My Apple Wireless Mouse mouse works but found, when I got to the Windows account login screen, that my Apple Wireless keyboard does not work with Windows more.

    I have read several threads on this discussion forum and tried the suggestions made by different people: the VMRAM reset, turn off the iMac and unplug the power supply, the keyboard in Mac OS X Bluetooth pairing. But no joy.

    Several responses seem to indicate that there is a software which can be downloaded in Windows that allow the keyboard is working again.

    However I can't sent the newspaper on the screen to reach the Windows desktop, because I need to enter my password or security number using my wireless keyboard.

    If I seem to be stuck between the hammer and the anvil :-(

    Are there bright and sensible ideas I can try to fix this?

    You have a wired keyboard and mouse that can be connected to the iMac?
