Numeric keypad not working

This is my second keyboard and the #1 on the keypad will not work unless I depress the shift key. The number 1 at the top of the keyboard works normally. Very aggravating

Magic Keyboard numbers 1 and 2 not working without holding another key down My keyboard just recently started having an issue with the number 1 and 2 buttons. They will not type on their own, but I have to hold down any other key (i.e the space bar) for them to appear when I am typing. I did delete the keyboard and re add it, and also checked some other settings in my keyboard preferences. Nothing seems to be fixing the issue. My caps lock key light also stopped working, but I am not sure if this has anything to do with the number issue.

f9-f11 keys have stopped working Hi, the f9-f11 keys on my keyboard have stopped working suddenly. It seems to be a hardware issue with the keyboard, as the keys still work on another keyboard I have. Any ideas on how to go about fixing this? Thanks
