    Hi All,

    I am just setting up our new Parlallels machines and can't figure out how to get the number pad side of the iMac keyboard to work in the VM?

    What am I missing??

    Thank You,

    Trevor

    Press the "Clear" key on the Mac keyboard. That should cause the numeric keypad on the Mac keyboard to work.

    All you need to do is press the key above the 7, it looks like a box with a cross through it.
    That should turn the number lock on.

    Hope that helps.

    I'm having the same problem with a generic extrenal keyboard. The suggestion above is not working for me.

    If you have a generic keyboard, locate the numlock key (on or next to the numeric pad) and depress it. That should allow you to enter numbers with the numeric keypad.
