Question: I have read that this is not compatible with mac.  Is that true?
Document: I have a mac.. works great with it and i love that is has a tab and backspace on it. Second brand I have tried and also its very inexpensive and I will stick with it.
Just a heads up to anyone who is thinking about purchasing this to work with their Mac - It doesn't work! Because of other reviews I saw, I thought that it would work fine, even though the product details say otherwise... but I was wrong. I tried to hook it up to my MacBook Pro and it did not recognize the keypad. I'm sure it's great for PC users, but my experience is that it doesn't work with a Mac.
I needed a keypad to enter research data for my husband and read great reviews about this one. It makes entering data much faster than having to use the regular keys. It was easy to install, just plug in and wait a few minutes for the online driver to download and you are good to go.
I read the other reviews of other numeric keyboards, and this had the best rating. It works well for fast data entering. Keys are large enough and good. No prob with the keypad. Using it with my laptop. No compatablity issues.. just plug in and that's it.I use it for music data entry. It works great.
When I read others reviews of this product, many of them raved about having the TAB key. I have to say those individuals were so right. This is a fantastic ten key and the tab key just makes it that much more impressive. I purchased this one for our business, and I liked this so much I purchased a second one to use at home.
I just got this today, so I realize I should really give these things a week before rating, but so far I really like it! The keys give a good &#34;click&#34; noise, they are regular sized, and I find the Tab key a super plus because of Excel spreadsheets. I read the reviews of a couple of keyboards and this one sounded the best, and so far I am pleased!
I just started a job from home where I do a lot of data input, primarily working with Excel spreadsheets. The work necessitated the use of a Company laptop which does not have a built in numeric keypad. After struggling with this for about 3 weeks, I decided to check out Amazon and see what I could find. I didn't see the need for a wireless pad with my setup so I read the reviews on this one and liked what I read.So far, the positive reviews were spot on.
This particular keypad is perfect for our use of signingin to the daycare facility. The buttons are big and easy to read.
glad i read the reviews. good price, good feel when keying in the numbers and glad i got one with the backspace key on the pad. now if only it had a tab key!
Bought this for hubby to use with my old laptop that only has number keys across the top. Easy to hook up, works out of the box. Easy to read, inexpensive - perfect.
Answer: My macbook pro is running osx 10.8.4. The short answer is yes. it does work. The numbers, tab, operators, and enter keys work right out of the box. Just plug it in. To get the num lock and alt functions to work. i.e. the direction arrows, pgup, pgdn, ins, del I down loaded the free keyremap4macbook app. The preferences are set 'for pc user'>use keypad arrow>use clear key to toggle keypad as arrow. And 'use pc style pageup/pagedown' then is works just like a built in keypad on a keyboard. I only have the program running when im using the keypad. The cord is very short. like 29 inch which barely reaches the right side of the computer if your right handed. Seems pretty well made and is comfortable to use.
