Can't pair my apple keyboard with ipad2. Green light on the keyboard doesn't stay on. Have changed the batteries.

I can't pair my apple wireless keyboard with my ipad2. The green light on the keyboard is not steady so I put in new batteries but still not showing a steady light.

Hello:
Try a couple of things:
Trash a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart.
Reset the PRAM and SMC
I am assuming you have a wired KB that works.

Can't pair apple wireless keyboard in Windows

Hi
I have just purchased the new June 2009 Macbook Pro. I've used bootcamp to install Windows XP and i'm trying to pair my apple wireless keyboard.
Its the brand new apple wireless keyboard but when i search for the device in the Bluetooth control panel, its displayed but when it attempts to pair it says completed ok, but the keyboard still doesn't work.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Andy

' Peter, I'm sorry to say this, but it sounds like you specifically either have a genuine hardware problem, or your Windows installation is sicker than most. You should never see the sort of symptoms you're talking about in a normal, healthy system!!!
' However, the bad / sad fact of the matter is that, even were you not in the position you're in, you couldn't use either keyboard or mouse when in Windows!
' I am able to (and have done - my Vista system is still configured successfully with 'em - I haven't removed them despite them being useless!) propperly pair both devices on Vista without much of a challenge - pretty standard fair actually... But that's all a smokescreen. Despite this - and despite being able to actually query each device over bluetooth for the services they provide and so on - they still cannot be actually used!!! No matter what, there is never any response from the OS to input or actions on either keyboard or mouse.
' <Shrugs> What can I tell ya. It does sound like Peter needs to move onto solving his bluetooth problem though anyways - in case this causes trouble for him (you) at some later date with devices that actually would be useful!
' Later!

Can I use my wireless keyboard with numbers

I am trying to create a spreadsheet and am using an I Pad 2 with an Apple wireless keyboard but it does not seem to work. Can anyone please help?

Without knowing any real specifics and not having used a wireless keyboard myself, I would ask you - did you pair the keyboard with the iPad via Bluetooth? Does the keyboard work at all?
I do not have a wireless keyboard but I see no reason why it shouldn't work with any app or for anything that you want to do on the iPad. Maybe you can be more specific as to exactly what is happening.

Trouble pairing Apple Wireless Keyboard with N95. Please help.

I bought the new aluminium Apple Wireless Keyboard today and tried pairing it with my N95 (firmware v20.0.015) using the 'Wireless Keyboard" application but it refuses to connect!
Would anyone be kind enough as to shed some light on this issue I'm experiencing?

The process is quite simple:
- Turn Bluetooth 'on' in your N95 - Settings\Connection\Bluetooth\On.
- if your wireless keyboard is on, turn it off then on again. This will make it discoverable for 3 min.
- go to 'Wlss.keybd' app on your N95....Menu\Office\Wlss.keybd and open it.
- go to Option menu and select 'Find keyboard'. This will search for available bluetooth devices. Your keyboard name should show up here. When it does, you can press 'stop' so that the phone stops looking for additional devices.
- select the keyboard from the list of found bluetooth devices. You will then go through a sequence of code inputs on both your phone and keyboard (just follow the prompts on the phone) which will 'pair' your keyboard to your phone.
Hey presto, your phone should now be connected to your keyboard! Hope this works for you.

Can I use my wireless keyboard with iPad?

I have an original old iPad. I also have a Mac Wireless keyboard.
Can I link to my my iPad? and how?

You can certainly try
1) on iPad: pull up Settings > General > Bluetooth
2) slide from Off to On (or On to Off, wait, then Off to On again)
3) on keyboard: hold down the power button on the side until the little green light flashes
4) release
5) on iPad: "Apple Wireless Keyboard" should pop up under "Devices"
6) if yes, tap "Not Connected" so it searches for a return signal from the keyboard
if no, try resetting/restarting your iPad (holding down the Home button and the Sleep button at the same time) and repeating instructions
7) on keyboard: send the iPad a return signal by pressing the Shift key

HT3932 can I pair my apple keyboard with an hp laptop

Can the apple keyboard that is bluetooth only be paired with apple products???

You can use AirPlay or home sharing via iTunes. Native mirroring is not supported, but you can try a 3rd party program like Airparrot.

My MACbook is connected to my iMAC using thunderbolt. How can I use my wireless keyboard with my MACBook with the lid OPEN?

It might work with the lid closed but I want to use the both screens. I try to detect the keyboard and the track pac on my Macbook pro but nothing is detected except my iMAC.

The easiest way is to copy the iTunes folder from your old PC to your MB (put it in the Music folder as a subfolder), along with the other valuable data on the old PC. Or restore it from a backup of your old PC. Then authorize iTunes on the MB to the same account you had on the PC. When you sync it will warn you that your content will be deleted, but it will be replaced with the same content from the MB. Before syncing you should also make sure there is at least one entry in iCal and Address book on the MB (assuming you sync to Outlook or equivalent on the PC) to assure that your contacts and calendar entries will move over correctly.
Al alternative that is less effective is to connect the iPhone to the MB without syncing, and choose "Transfer Purchases" from the iTunes File menu. This willl copy purchases music, videos and apps, but not ripped tracks from the iPhone to the MB.

Wireless Keyboards with Touchpads?

My wife has a new external monitor for her macbook pro. She loves the touchpad on the laptop, so we're wondering if anyone can recommend a good wireless keyboard with built-in touchpad. Thanks.

Oh dear, that is annoying! I tried searching on Amazon, but the best they have is English keyboards with Thai characters on them =/
If I find anything, I'll be sure to tell you

Bluetooth: How to set up your Apple Wireless Keyboard

How can i connect a Wireless Keyboard and a Trust mouse with a brand new Mac mini?

How can i connect a Wireless Keyboard and a Trust mouse to a brand new Mac mini?

Go to the Bluetooth icon on the menu bar and select "Set Up Bluetooth Device". Follow the wizard.
Alternatively, if you haven't yet unboxed and setup the Mini, you can pair the keyboard to the Mini (and possibly the mouse). However, I would set up with a USB keyboard and mouse and pair the Bluetooth devices afterwards.
