Case for iPad2 with Bluetooth keyboard  ITIP-4000

Just purchased thi and am unable to connect to bluetooth keyboard - anyone have a suggestion?

Sandra-
How are you trying to connect?  If you go to Settings-General-Bluetooth, is Bluetooth set to ON?  Does the keyboard show up under Devices?  If you select it, do you get instructions on how to pair with it?
If the keyboard does not appear under Devices, be sure it has a fresh battery and is turned on.

  • Mac Mini HD errors with bluetooth keyboard

    I have a Mac Mini with bluetooth keyboard.  I cannot boot to OSX Recovery (command R).  Yet I need Disk Utility to repair HD errors.

    I found this link searching Apple Mac Mini Support: Apple Wireless Keyboards: Using startup keys.  Tried this and it worked on the second try.  Worked using Restart in the middle of the startup chime sound, not Shutdown.

  • Why my Iphone4 don't detect my Ipad2 with bluetooth and opposite

    Why my Iphone4 don't detect my Ipad2 with bluetooth and opposite

    I have the same problem.
    I also need both devices to detect each other because some software like scrabble require the bluetooth connection so play. I am also using Conference and Remote (recommended by Apple!) which are also able to use the bluetooth connectivity

  • Can you create a keyboard short cut for the dictation mic with bluetooth keyboards? The multi-button requirement to open the onscreen is annoying and unintuitive.

    (Using an "iPad 3", i dont care what apple calls it) There should be a built in one button access to this from EVERY keyboard since this function is used to replace typing. An inherent Apple shortcut like copy and paste. I set my iPad up on a framed photo holder and use it like a moniter screen when I write, my Bluetooth keyboard is separated from it and makes writing comments and long articles less efficient because it requires extra steps with every dictation, while taking up screen space to have the on screen open. There needs to be a way to access dictation without the onscreen keyboard open, via any standard keyboard.

    I was "reasonably frustrated" for having more than one answer offered for a question that not only didn't I ask, but made it clear I was aware of the information it appears they cut and paste at me.
    I see it as: the title of my post should inform any person with an elementery handeling of the english language that I not only have this type of keyboard but am well aware it has a button for the ONSCREEN keyboard. That makes it look like they were just "approval hunting" #1. 2nd Grampa Joe's generic sounding response as a zero level newbie already who found "this" post where the first line is about keyboard shortcuts......WHEN there are better posts with more views and commets for exactly that. Approval hunting #2. I'd say based on both, my suspicion is darn reasonably justified sir.
    "couldn't find the answer he wanted" no sir, I didn't get an answer at all, they answered OTHER questions. Questions I didn't ask, even after having explained myself more clearly. If anyone is a Jerk, it's you for jumping to eronous conclusions and attacking me for them on personal level. I made a justified claim based on the BLACK AND WHITE TEXT, that it still appears to me is well supported, you just flung mud.........who's the jerk?
    Finally, your first post answered my question directly. Thank you. However under General/Keyboard, at the bottom you can make keyboard shortcuts. They may not function how I'm asking, but you can make them.

  • HT3131 Booting in Clamshell Mode with Bluetooth keyboard

    I have a macbook pro with retina display which I am using with two apple 27" monitors. I use a logitech K811 bluetooth keyboard while the macbook is closed. I would like to be able to boot from the keyboard directly. Does anyone know how to do this? I believe I saw instructions somewhere but cannot find them.

    Hey there paulh20016,
    It sounds like you are needing to set your Mac to let bluetooth devices wake it from sleep. You can do this in your System Preferences:
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Bluetooth.
    Click Advanced.
    Select the “Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer” checkbox.

  • Can I use USB mouse with bluetooth keyboard?

    I am in need of some help. I recently got my iMac about 3 months ago and absolutely hate the magic mouse and want to use my rocketfish usb mouse along with the bluetooth mac keyboard. Is this possible or just wishful thinking on my end? I have searched everywhere for drivers and answers with programs etcetera and have came out empty. Help?

    I've done so (and even tested it on my Macbook and the USB mouse works fine) but for some reason it will not interface with my iMac - and I've tired multiple USB ports and still nothing, which is why I brought up the keyboard being bluetooth I didn't know if that somehow may interfer with the USB mouse when the bluetooth keyboard is turned on and paired. I am pretty good when it comes to computers so I know what to look for and what I am doing (for the most part) but this has me stumped.

  • How do you start the hardware test on an imac with bluetooth keyboard

    How do you start the apple hardware test on an imac with a bluetooth keyboard as the instructions is to press the D key whilst restarting? And of course the imac cant see the keyboard whilst booting up as the bluetooth connection has yet to be established

    Have you tried following the directions for running it from the DVD? The instructions are on the Hardware Test link.If you are correct and it cannot due to the wireless keyboard not making a connection you will need to borrow a wired USB keyboard.  

  • Multiple key press's with Bluetooth Keyboard

    I'm ready to update my mac to a new G5 imac and fancy getting the wireless bluetooth keyboard and mouse with it.
    I have one question, has anyone experienced problems when holding down multiple keys on the keyboard and moving the mouse all at once (Using illustrator)?
    In my office I have the misfortune of having to use a PC, I have had a number of wireless keyboard and mouse combos, all of them when using Illustrator and photoshop can not handle multiple key press's and mouse movement.
    ie if I'm duplicating an object by dragging a copy of it across the screen, on the PC it will work but it always "releases" after a couple of seconds and drops the copy in the where I don't want it which gets very frustrating (this only happens with wireless).
    As I do a lot of work at home, I hoping this wont be the case with the mac's bluetooth K & M.
    thanks
    Russell

    The shift key works just fine on my Bluetooth keyboard.  So I would imagine this is an issue with your keyboard.

  • I HAVE JUST BOUGHT A MAC MINI WITH BLUETOOTH KEYBOARD AND ON SCREEN ALL IM GETTING IS A PIC SHOWING TO SWITCH ON KEYBOARD AND ANOTHER THAT SHOWS A SWITCH ON COMPUTER. I CANT SEE A SWITCH ON THE MINI.

    I have just bought a mac mini and am trying to set up. The unit is asking me to swith on bluetooth keyboard via pic 1 then pic 2 shows another switch.
    I can't see this switch. can anyone help before i launch this thing out the window!

    Symptoms
    When using Setup Assistant to configure your Mac mini or iMac for the first time, the Bluetooth keyboard may have difficulty pairing.
    Resolution
    Use a wired keyboard to configure the Mac mini or iMac with the Setup Assistant. If a wired keyboard is not available, follow these steps:
    Press and hold the Power button until the computer turns off.
    Press the Power button to start the computer.
    When a language selection appears, press and hold the power key on the Bluetooth keyboard so that the green light is flashing (discoverable mode).
    Use the mouse to click the language you would like.
    A code should appear on the screen. Enter the code on the Bluetooth keyboard and press Return. Note: No visible feedback appears on the screen while you enter the code.
    The computer and the wireless keyboard should now be paired.

  • Mac mini safe boot with bluetooth keyboard

    I have a mac mini running mac os 10.6
    Cannot boot my mac mini. When I start from CD and run disk utility i am getting following error msg: "invalid b-tree node size"
    Seems to be a fs problem and not hw. Safe boot might solve the problem :  )
    Now i am trying to do a safe boot but no success so far. I am having a bluetooth keyboard and mouse.
    Holding down shift key and power on is not working but holding down cmd&s for single mode or holding
    down c for booting from cd is working.
    Any ideas?

    That message indicates that one or more of the directories on the drive has become damaged. Disk Utility can usually diagnose such problems, but not repair them.
    Suggest you get a copy of Alsoft's DiskWarriot. DiskWarrior can usually fix such problems with no loss of data. There's no need to install DiksWarrior - boot the machine to the CD and run DiskWarrior from that.

  • Using shift key not working with bluetooth keyboard

    Am I missing something here? Or does the shift key not work with the iphone using a bluetooth keyboard?  I'm using the logitech K810 for reference on iphone 6 iOS 8.1

    The shift key works just fine on my Bluetooth keyboard.  So I would imagine this is an issue with your keyboard.

  • Start up options with bluetooth keyboard?  keeping keyboard clean

    As you know, sometimes you need to hold down the "option" key or the "shift" key when the machine starts up or even the pram reset key combo. Does this work with the bluetooth keyboard? or is a wired one essential for this? Thanks
    Also how do you keep the keys clean? my keys on the wired aluminum keyboard are dirtier than my apple pro keyboard keys ever got....any secrets to keeping them clean?

    Let me answer my own question re CLEANING.....just tried oxiclean/water mix...works perfectly......i initially cleaned them with the iKlear wipes and thought they looked clean. Then I made a mixture of warm water and oxiclean....used a q-tip and it's just like new (this is the wired version). tried it on all my apple white keyboards and it's done a good job. it's amazing how much more dirt came off even after a "cleaning" with iKlear.

  • KeyRemap4MacBook with Bluetooth Keyboard?

    I'd like to remap some keys on both my MBP 13 10.6.4 laptop keyboard and my Apple Bluetooth keyboard to function as a number pad. I've downloaded KeyRemap4MacBook, and haven't installed it yet.
    I read on http://pqrs.org/macosx/keyremap4macbook/list.html --
    # Don't remap external keyboards
    # Don't remap Apple's keyboards
    So...is it possible to use KeyRemap4MacBook with the Apple Bluetooth keyboard without causing any problems?
    I've asked this question on the pqrs.org site but haven't received a response yet, and there's nothing on this subject over on the Bluetooth forum. Thanks for any help with this you can offer.

    I think you need to read a bit more deeply into the documentation for KeyRemap4MacBook. At the top of the page you've linked, I find the following apparent admonitions, two of which you've already quoted:
    •Don't remap an internal keyboard
    •Don't remap external keyboards
    •Don't remap Apple's keyboards
    •Don't remap keyboards which has third vendor's driver (Logitech, Microsoft, Kensington, ...)
    Thinking about these instructions for a moment, one quickly realizes that if these were instructions to the user, they would preclude the use of KR4M on any keyboard at all. That can't be what the software's developer intends.
    And it isn't. The page you've linked +is not a page of instructions to the user.+ It's a page listing 1036 different instructions that the user, at his or her option, can program into KR4M to govern its behavior. I've never used KR4M, but it is the most widely and often recommended keyboard remapping utility for use on Apple notebooks, and that certainly wouldn't be true if it didn't work on them, were dangerous to them, or caused the user to turn into a pumpkin or a pillar of salt. So go ahead and try it out, and if it works for you, use it in good health.

  • Problem with Bluetooth Keyboard and Lion?

    I've just purchased a 21" imac running os x lion 10.7.3 and although the mac sees the keyboard when I set up the Keyboard from system prefs, it says 'keyboard cannot be found even though the Bluetooth prefs says it's there'.
    Second, there's an on/off button on the right hand side which glows green for a second when it's pushed, and ditto if you push it again, so I don't know if the keyboard is on or off! Surely it should glow grren when ON and not when OFF or is there a problem with the keyboard itself?

    Is the KB working on the system or not?

    That is the way it is designed.  When you turn the KB on, the light is on for a brief period of time.  It does not stay on.

  • Trouble with bluetooth keyboard/mouse and wake from sleep option

    Hi,
    I have a 12" PB G4 that has in-built BT. I got a Microsoft Elite bluetooth desktop (keyboard + mouse) and the keyboard and mouse are recognized by my Powerbook but the option to "Allow bluetooth devices to wake up this computer" option is dimmed so I can't check it.. I googled and came upon Apple's howto on this and downloaded/installed the latest firmware.... no luck.. I opened up the firmware updater in Applications\Utilities and hit the Update button but get an error saying no apple bluetooth module exists... given that the keyboard and mouse do show up in the list of bluetooth devices, does this mean that there is no firmware update for this make of keyboard/mouse?
    Anything else I can try to get this option to work so I can use the BT keyboard/mouse to wake up the computer?
    Thanks,
    NG

    Seems I am the only one using a Bluetooth mouse. I went a bought a mouse with an RF receiver and have packed the BT mouse away.
