Does its num lock carry over to the laptop it is connected to?

No, it does not. The device internally stores whether numlock is on for it. If this setting differs from the setting in the laptop, it will send three signals to the laptop when a numeral key is pressed: numlock, number key, numlock.

Thank you everyone, with the number lock on it does. I went out to get a few more keyboards just in case and the new one works fine without the number lock on....go figure. But thank you again.

It does not. The Caps-Lock indicator LED is on the laptop, not the keyboard. Hope this helps.

no it does not, and sometimes when it is first plugged in to the divice you want to use it on the num lock is activated for some reason

No. Ideally keeping track of key number is wise. Worked in previous school district where these were standard issue with district laptops. Teachers were unable to use their keys in another teachers lock.

As Sharon answered, it is a standard size for most laptops. I also bought it for a Toshiba Satellite laptop but did not experience any authorized password issue. I removed the old drive, installed the new drive, started the computer, and installed the operating system from system restore disks (hopefully you created system restore disks or have a Windows install disk).

No, This is only for using in place of the one that you have to install a key in. It remembers your key code.

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 am going to assume you are referring to a laptop where FN+ some key turns on num-lock -- in that case the answer is NO.If you mean a desk-top then I am aware of no way the key pad would turn your num-lock on unless you are asking if it has a num-lock key which it doesn't. Default Num-lock is set in the CMOS (set-up) of the computer.FYI - It is the best key pad I have ever had/used - I have two and highly recommend it.I saw another reply that indicated it did but that reply also referred to it being Bluetooth so I must assume that it is not the N305 or is an ugraded version as my N305 is wireless but not Bluetooth.

I do not believe so? Our two are on the network. I'm sure if you go the USB route you would still need a login & password to get into the clock.

Because you turned on "num-lock" with the external keyboard and it reassigned your laptop's keys to their num-lock equivalent. Turn off num-lock either on the external keyboard or by pressing the appropriate function key on your laptop.

Yes. It locked well in my case. Simple screw-in type.I've had for about a year now. No problem so far.

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!

The lock can but not the key. You will have to place the key in the same place where other magnetic items go to pass through the system.
