Can't pair my iPad with a Bluetooth keyboard.

Just purchased the Kensington KeyFolio Pro. After following the directions, my iPad will not pair with the keyboard. I tried other Bluetooth devices with the same result, no pairing. I'm wondering if this is a problem with my iPad and not the devices. Anyone have a similar problem?

First make sure you have the Device on ( Obviously ) second you will want to go
Settings>Bluetooth
Then find your device on there and click on it to pair it.
It might ask you to type something into the keyboard to activate it. When you type that it should work.
And the smart feature with the Keyfolio is it will not connect to two devices at once. So if you have it paired with another device already than you must make the device it is already paired with forget the Keyfolio. you will go to
Settings>Bluetooth
Then click the blue arrow and then click Forget This Device.
You should then be able to pair it with your iPad.
Hope this helps, have a nice day :)

  • How can I pair an iPad with an android phone via Bluetooth?

    How can I pair an iPad with an android phone via Bluetooth? I get the pair message on both, but after acknowledging on both devices the connection fails to establish. I looked around and everything I found had to do with file transfer. I can share access to the internet via Bluetooth and it works with other devices I've tried this with. Thanks.

    Sorry.  After re-reading my question I realized that I wasn't clear.  I don't want to transfer files.  I want to use PDANet from my android and connect my iPad for internet access via bluetooth.  I know this is a 2 way transfer of data not very different from transferring files, but I just want to be sure that this is not going to work so I can stop trying as if I'm doing something wrong.  Like I said, I can do this with any other bluetooth capable device/computer I have.  Seems like it's just not working either by design or as a result of some limitation.  I guess 2 way communication with a headset gave me hope that internet access would work.  Thanks!

  • I can not pair my iPad with the new Bluetooth keyboard????

    Can someone answer this for me...thanks

    No, with Apple devices, life is different.
    If you're trying to keep calendars, contacts, notes in sync, consider using iCloud as described here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4436
    Apps are automatically available to both devices.
    You can keep the music in sync by using iTunes Match should you desire, or simply iTunes on your computer.
    You can use iTunes on your computer as a repository to sync your devices.

  • Can I pair my Mac with two wireless keyboards and trackpads?

    I have a MacBook Pro.  I want to have external display (and wireless keyboard and trackpad) at all 3 places I work.  Is that possible?  I read that it's possible to have a wireless keyboard work with multiple devices, but I couldn't find if it works the other way.  thanks

    I have two offices and I move my Mac between them.  I have paired both wiresless keyboards and when I show up at the other office it just pairs automatically.

  • Can't use my 6680 with my Bluetooth Car Sereo Kit ...

    Hi I recently got a Nokia 6680 and I paired it with my Ministry of Sound Bluetooth Stereo and it paired fine and works ok when a call comes in it rings through the speakers to alert me and when I press the talk button the sound infact does not comes through the speakers but instead it automatically diverts back to the handset.
    Nokia have told me that it is because it is not one of their kits and that is why its not recognising it ??
    Other Audio guys have said it is just something simple and refer to my manual which I have and can come up with very little answers ??
    I have used this car stereo on several sharp and sony erriccson phones and it has worked a dream but I am really dissapointed that Nokia seems to have a problem with it !!
    Any solutions would be greatly appreciated !!
    Help !!

  • How to pair my iPad with my iPhone

    How do I pair my iPad with my iphone

    For what purpose?
    Thee is no file transfer protocol supported between iOs devices so no pairing can happen.
    You can share the internet connection from the iPhone by turning on Personal Hotspot, and then searching for the iPhone under Bluetooth Devices on the iPad.

  • Can you pair an ipad3 with an andriod device

    can you pair an ipad3 with an andriod device

    Here's the Personal Hotspot section of the iPad User Manual.  Maybe you can set it up using WiFi.  Sorry about the added bullet (line) numbers.  They came from the cut and paste automatically.
    Personal Hotspot You can use Personal Hotspot (on Wi-Fi + cellular models) to share an Internet connection with a computer or other device—such as an iPod touch or iPhone—connected to your iPad via Wi-Fi. You can also use Personal Hotspot to share an Internet connection with a computer connected to iPad via Bluetooth or USB. Personal Hotspot works only if iPad is connected to the Internet over the cellular data network.
    Note: This feature may not be available in all areas. Additional fees may apply. Contact your carrier for more information.
    Share an Internet connection: Go to Settings > General > Cellular and tap Set Up Personal Hotspot—if it appears—to set up the service with your carrier.
    After you turn on Personal Hotspot, other devices can connect in the following ways:
    W-Fi: On the device, choose your iPad from the list of available Wi-Fi networks.
    USB: Connect your computer to iPad using the cable that came with it. In your computer’s Network preferences, choose iPad and configure the network settings.
    Bluetooth: On iPad, go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth. To pair and connect iPad with your device, refer to the documentation that came with your computer.
    When a device is connected, a blue band appears at the top of the iPad screen. Personal Hotspot remains on when you connect with USB, even when you aren’t actively using the Internet connection.
    Note: The Personal Hotspot icon appears in the status bar of iOS devices using the Personal Hotspot.
    Change the Wi-Fi password for iPad: Go to Settings > Personal Hotspot > Wi-Fi Password, then enter a password of at least 8 characters.
    Monitor your cellular data network usage: Go to Settings > General > Usage > Cellular Usage.

  • I can't pair my MacBook with my iPhone 5c

    I can't pair my MacBook with my iPhone 5c. Any suggestions on how to do it? I've tried switching Bluetooth off and on again, toying with AirDrop, but nothing works. There MUST be an easy way to send a file from the iPhone directly to the MacBook, right?

    What version of Mac OS X are you running? Go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac.

  • Why won't my new mac mini pair with my bluetooth keyboard or mouse

    I bought a new mini in December. I've been fighting with getting it set up since. It refuses to see/pair with my bluetooth keyboard or mouse. How am I supposed to proceed with setup if I can't even get off the start-up screen???
    1.4GHz
    1.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 (Turbo Boost up to 2.7GHz) with 3MB on-chip shared L3 cache

    The Bluetooth devices were probably paired with another computer. You need to "unpair" these Bluetooth devices before pairing with another.

  • How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?

    How can I use an iPad with two itunes accounts?
    Hi there
    My partner has a works iPad, which has her works Apps on (ones that are specifically made by her company and are NOT available in the App store).
    What I want to be able to do is to ALSO have my itunes account on there so that I can put all the apps I have purchased previously from my iPhone on it.
    This is so I can put on VLC player (thats already in my itunes account) so I can add videos to the iPad.
    How do I do this please?
    I tried it before by connecting it to my mac, but it wiped everything off the iPad completely and also deleted the data settings for using 3G.
    So I want to avoid this happening again the future as it had to be sent back to her head office to be sorted again.
    Any advise please?
    Thanks

    You can't. The iPad is desgined to be a 'one user' device and only really works with one apple ID at a time.
    The only way would be if she, at work and with her work apple id, downloaded your apps (repurchasing them of course).
    It's not meant to be a multiple user/multiple ID device.
