<p>Hey.
I recently migrated to a mac book pro after being a longtime windows user. I am using PT10. I bought myself a <a href="http://www.dynexproducts.com/products/computer-accessories/DX-KEYPAD2.html" rel="nofollow">Dynex Extended Keypad</a>, just for the ease of using PT. But I am not able to open the transport window, session settings etc .. (Command+ Num keypad Options)</p>
<p>Is it because MBP doesn't have the num lock setting or do I simply need to buy another keypad. Anyone ever encountered the same issue? I'm new to mac so don't know everything about it as yet. Kindly help. :)</p>

I use the option "Change Num Key (1…0)" and then it becomes a matter of fn+1 fn+2 and so on to access that functionality.</p>

<p>I got one second hand for half the RRP. You're still only using up one USB port and there ports on the keyboard which I use to connect mouse and iLok.</p>
