If a numeric keypad doesn’t work on Mac
A numeric keypad is an extended layout of additional keys, including numbers, to the right of a regular keyboard. The keypad works in different ways, depending on your Mac and the keyboard and app you’re using. Usually you use the numeric keypad to enter numbers, but you can also use it to move the pointer and, in some apps, to move around your document.
Press the Num Lock key (if available).
If the numeric keypad still doesn’t work as you expect, you may have enabled Mouse Keys, which lets you move the pointer with the keypad.
To turn off Mouse Keys, choose Apple menu
in the sidebar, click Pointer Control (you may need to scroll down), then turn off Mouse Keys.
Thanks for your feedback.
