Is it a wireless keyboard? If so, check the batteries first.

If it is a USB keyboard and mouse try unplugging them and then replugging them into a different USB port than they were in previously.

Does the keyboard work normally when you are not in InDesign?

Is your keyboard working today?

I just had my computer updated and now only in InDesign my keyboard doesn't register. I use a lot of numbers and I have to hit the keys repeatedly to get it to type, same with the delete key. I swapped out keyboards so that is not the issue.
Anyone else? this is driving me crazy as I have to keep a vigilant eye on what is being typed and typos are now high - not good.

Me too! Although I haven't just updated Window, but I did just update Indesign.
It seems to just be numbers, both the numpad and normal number keys. Same issue with both a wireless keyboard and the laptop keyboard.
I'm currently working on a job inserting/updating numbers so it's driving me crazy.
