MacBook Pro Retina 15 Inch USB Ports Not Working

Does anyone else have an issue with the MacBook Pro Retina 15 inch (mid-2014) USB ports not working? I have a Magic Keyboard with Numeric Keypad which, since the beginning, I've had to plug in via a USB adapter (keyboard into female, adapter male into MacBook) to get it to work. Lately, even this does not work, and today, I've had to stop using the keyboard altogether.
