I really want to like this keyboard but the numpad keeps turning on, meaning it then types numbers instead of letters. Anyone have a solution?

To turn numpad on or off on-the-fly, use Fn+ScrLk combination.To turn numpad off at bootup-time, change the BIOS/UEFI settings accordingly. Refer to your motherboard or computer manual.Unfortunately, Windows wants to re-enable numpad when it boots up even though the BIOS/UEFI might have turned it off. To get around this, you have to change a registry setting. Google is your friend here (don't recall off the top of my head).Good luck.

If this resets everytime you boot, when booting mash DELETE to get to the BIOS settings. In the BIOS settings disable turning on Numlock on boot.

YES. Someone else had posted this someplace when I first bought the keyboard. Here's the hack: SOLUTION: Press the following keys to toggle numlock off: SHIFT FN NUMLOCK DO NOT use a password that has a letter with a numeric letter, because this ONLY shuts off the num-lock after you've entered your computer. Good luck!

EXACTLY! It won't go off. I sent the keyboard back immediately. Sorry, 451jude

Hi. Yeah, it's a pain in the butt. SHARKK responded to my review to say that would fix it in the next release, but I'm not sure if they can do a firmware fix for existing models. I would definitely contact SHARKK support to ask how they intend to fix your problem: either a firmware fix or exchange your keyboard for one that works correctly. They seem to be genuinely concerned about providing good support. UPDATE JAN 22, 2014: I received the new version of the case yesterday from SHARKK. I charged the new KB before using it, then had it on for several hours today. I'm happy to report that it has not lost its connection yet. Much improved.

Has anyone had problems with the keyboard "sticking" on the last letter you typed? (Like thisssssssss)? It also will not do an upper case I--this just started today. Am wondering if I need to return this.

I had this problem too. Try pressing the round button on the top center of the keyboard, or try turning it off and back on. Sometimes you just have to play around with it.

Try to keep the keyboard contacted to your Bluetooth connection. If the connection fails, then the keyboard will not allow you to type concisely and consistent.

Try turning off number lock by default in the computer's BIOS. That's probably why it's doing this. And you should be able to do that within the session by pressing the number lock key on the keyboard.

I've not had this problem, but sometimes the on screen keyboard will not respond, not really a delay because it just won't work. It will make the sound but not print the letter or number.

I, like Sandy, am using this keyboard on essentially the same machine. I just plugged it in, and everything worked fine. All buttons seemed to be already configured (email, calculator, etc). It was truly "plug and play".I would suspect a faulty keyboard. Do you possibly have another computer to try it on, or perhaps a friend or neighbor who would let you try it out on their computer? Just a thought...Good luck!

I had a similar experience where the keys would stick and sometimes start stringing letters on its own. I returned the keyboard to Amazon for a refund. I bought another ZAGG keyboard that has a cover for the iPad included from Best Buy and it works great.

Its purpose to be on a couch or be further away from your computer and be able to have a mouse on the keyboard.It is an excellent Keyboard, but i doubt it years ago. Numpad isnt that important to me but i can definitely say they should have updated the keyboard to add a backlight by now.

It is not charged up enough. I had the same issue and once I charged it, problem fixed! When it's plugged in, make sure the light comes on to indicate that it is charging. I absolutely love this keyboard. Don't give up on it.

My keyboard works. I initially had some difficulty until I figured out some minor steps that weren't noted in the directions. I'm not that tech savvy, so I'm not ssure if this helps. Sorry

It only displays an English keyboard (in a strange layout), but typing with a different layout than displayed works, as it just sends keycodes, not the characters - just don't look at it while typing!

Have you got it to work before? I purchased one of these keyboards and had to RMA it twice. I got my money back after that and ordered another. I never got mine to work though, even after extreme internetting to find a solution.

I have the same problem. It only worked for about 2 weeks and gives me trouble. I have tried all of the steps and they don't seem to work. I may try a replacement, and if that doesn't work will go back to Logitech which always works and has a bigger keyboard.
