numeric keyboard

I just purchased the wired numeric keyboard. The number pad to the right isn't working. I have searched through old answers-- click the clear button for example. No luck. Appreciate any thoughts.

Mouse Keys may be turned on. Try pressing the Option key five times. That is the shortcut often enabled for Mouse Keys.

"If you enable the Mouse Keys feature, many keys might not respond as you expect. Here's how to turn off Mouse Keys:

In OS X 10.8 or later, choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Click on Accessibility, then choose Mouse & Trackpad from the list on the left side. Then deselect the Enable Mouse Keys checkbox.

In OS X 10.7.5 or earlier, choose Apple menu > System Preferences. Click on Universal Access, then select the Mouse & Trackpad tab. Then select the Off button next to Mouse Keys."
