Connecting my Bluetooth keyboard from Ps3 to Ipad2??

Hi,
I own an Ipad2 and just bought the official bluetooth keyboard for my PS3. Not the small one you connect on the controller, neither a large one. It is the special one made for the PS3.
I am trying to connect it, but there is no way. Anybody tried it? Anybody can tell me to do?
Thx
Rocky

If you can get them paired again try making them "favorites" from the Bluetooth system preferences.
Try smc and pram reset too. May gave to do this before you can get them paired.

I need to connect my bluetooth keyboard on my mac, but it doesn't have bluetooth installed

I need to connect my bluetooth keyboard on my mac, but it doesn't have bluetooth installed. eMac 2004 running 10.4.7 Tiger.

In the case you have explained you will have to do some shopping around. I am sure there is something out there that is available and will work with a Mac. The key here though is it must have the software available with the Keyboard or Mouse to insure that it will work on your older model Mac. Normally all you need to do is follow there instructions to a tee to make them work. I have 2 different items that work trouble free on 2 different Mac's. One other thing to keep in mind is you may have some trouble tracking down what you are looking for.
Here may very well be a place to start.

HT5293 how do I rename the bluetooth keyboard from a previous owner

how do I rename the bluetooth keyboard from a previous owner many thanks in advance.

System Preferences > Bluetooth. Turn Bluetooth Off. Under Devices listing, click once on the particular keyboard entry. Click the X to the right to remove it. Select Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Under Advanced, check all three buttons and click OK.
Put freshly charged batteries in the Bluetooth keyboard you want to pair. If it has an on/off switch, turn it on, and then also renable Turn Bluetooth On in the above bluetooth preference pane, and it will scan for the Bluetooth keyboard, which you can now name as your own.

Iphone bluetooth headset stops bluetooth keyboard from connecting

has anyone else had a problem using an iphone bluetooth headset in close proximity to an bluetooth keyboard? If i wake up or boot up my macbook pro when my headset is switched on and close by, the keyboard will not connect to the mac! any ideas anyone please?

Hi.
I have found that having my WiFi on at the same time I try to pair with my Plantronics 925 prevents me from hooking up. If you have WiFi you may want to turn it off why you pair. Once paired you can then turn your WiFi back on with no problems.

Activating onscreen keyboard while connected to bluetooth keyboard

Hi,
I have the Apple bluetooth keyboard connected to my iPad 2 and I was wondering if there was way to activate the onscreen keyboard other then pressing the eject key on the top right of the bluetooth keyboard. Its not a concern when I'm close to the keyboard but when I'm further away and want to type something quick without the bluetooth keyboard it can become a hassle. I don't want to disconnect the keyboard and reconnected it either. Any input would be appreciated.

I have found another post that talk similar topic.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/12847503#12847503
Looks like the only solution are to either physically turn on/off (the keyboard) or press the eject button on physical keyboard. But when I am at the password screen, swiping up from bottom will not bring up the Control Center to allow me to turn off the bluetooth onscreen. Again I need to open the physical keyboard.
Probably an easier solution is to simply remember to turn off bluetooth before putting away the devices.

How can I stop my bluetooth keyboard from crashing my macbook pro???

I have a bluetooth keyboard I use at my desk. Often, I'll pack my macbook pro and use it away from home. When I bring it back, what often happens as soon as I hit a key or two on the bluetooth keyboard, causing it to wake up and re-establish its connection with the macbook, is the macbook immediately freezes up and crashes.
When it does this, a gray tint will make its way across the screen, starting from the top and working downward. Before it reaches about halfway (how far it gets seems to vary) it will freeze completely and I am forced to do a hard reset.
Is this a known issue? Is there a known fix? It's been happening for a while now.

Well, Charles, since no one else is taking a stab ... have ya checked your prefs in System Preferences > Hardware > Bluetooth > Advanced? "Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer" is enabled? Must be, already; nevermind ...
Have you taken a peek at the output from running Applications > Utilities > Console.app > > LOG DATABASE QUERIES > Console messages? And, the ever-popular > LOG FILES > `/Library/Logs > CrashReporter? For you to have the Descending Grey Wall of Death ... the DGWoD is really creepy ( I have seen it, on the hoof, twice!), especially if it is repeatable (check the definition of insanity, as you say this has been going on for a while). Check your Console and see what is happening, and please post back: this will be so fixable! Aloha and have a great weekend!

Question about connectivity of bluetooth keyboard ...

Hello All,
I wanted to ask a few things regarding the bluetooth keyboard's connectivity with nokia 5320
that will i be only limited to write through the keyboard in the sms etc ?
or while browsing through my mobile or using ebuddy on my cellphone,i'll also be able to write through the keyboard there in ?

That all depends on which tablet you are using. If it happens to be a windows 8 tablet that has a full USB port on it you can get a USB hub to share that port to multiple devices and plug everything in that way.
If it is an android tablet however you may have to connect a the mouse and keyboard via bluetooth, and then the printer over wifi which should work on windows as well.
If you let me know exactly what tablet and printer you have I might be able to find the best possible solution for those devices.

Lost connection to Bluetooth keyboard

2 weeks old Intel mini. Logitech diNovo Edge Bluetooth keyboard paired just fine with the mini.
Have not used the system for a few days. Mini goes to sleep when not in use.
Today, the connection to the keyboard was lost. Trying to open Bluetooth preferences crashes the System Preferences application. Force-quit System preferences (had to do it twice). Turn BT off and on again. Re-try. Same thing: System Preference crashes.
Had to restart the mini (which I HATE). Re-paired BT keyboard. Also got a weird notice that my Network location was damaged and could not be loaded (re-created network location). No idea if this is related to the BT problem.
Hope it does not happen again, but I don't LIKE it. Any ideas?
TIA.

Connection to bluetooth keyboard lost

Hello there,
since yesterday my bluetooth keyboard is not working anymore for my imac (late 2011) 10.9. mavericks and 27 inch.
Before it was working fine, didn´t say that battery is empty or anything. Suddenly it just stopped and never worked again. I changed the battery, nothing. When I press the button at the side, the green light comes up, and disappears a bit later.
In the bluetooth settings I can see my keyboard, I can also click connect, but it says connecting for around half a minute and then connection to the device could not be completed.
Tried it on a different mac, there it does not even appear, didn´t work on iphone and ipad either.
Can I reset the keyboard or what do I do now?
Thanks a lot
Chris

When I try to connect my bluetooth keyboard to my ipad, the dialog box pops up and says: "Make sure 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' is turned on and in range." But the keyboard is turned on and is right in front of the ipad. Any thoughts?

When I try to cnnect my bluetooth keyboard to my ipad, the dialogue box pops up and says: "Make sure 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' is turned on and in range." The thing is, the keyboard is on and is sitting in front of the ipad. I have used it before, but not for many months. I changed the batteries today just in case. The green light on the keyboard comes on and continues blinking. What am I missing?

Keyboards Can only be paired with one device at the time so if it's paired with another device IN range it Will not pair with the ipad

After connecting to Bluetooth keyboard, iPad 2 will not connect to Internet (wifi) at all. Wifi is ok, have tried turning off bltooth, wifi on iPad. It sees the network but won't connect. Help? Have also reset network settings etc

My iPad wifi was working great until I I connected it by Bluetooth to a keyboard (zagg). It was the first time I'd used Bluetooth
Immediately Internet was dropped on my ipad. My iPhone was and is still connected no prob. And I cannot get the iPad wifi to work again....at all!!!
This is major as I am away from my desktop for three months. Any fix cannot involve being at my desktop with iTunes which is 10,000 km away
So far This is what I've tried based on other discussions-
-turned Bluetooth off and unpaired to keyboard which was also turned off
- turned iPad wifi off and on (several times)
- forgot the network I useArrive Jul 19 depart Aug 25th. Originally it was Sept 9.
-- reset network settings
What happens is that the iPad sees the network and I enter my password. But, instead of getting "check mark" indicating a successful connections it keeps "circling". Sometimes the airport bars will show, but disappear or flicker. It never connects with a check noted in settings. Any attempts to use internet confirm there is no connection
My network is not a cafe or public network. It is one I regularly use here at my family's home where I am visiting
Any ideas!

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Using BlueTooth Joystick from PS3?

Hello,
I'm porting a game from web to mobile.
I ant to be able to let the user use a joystick if they have one.
Anyone know where I can find how to get bluetooth joysticks working with mobile?

Apparently that joystick driver works on Android, but not iOS? Is this correct?
Is there a joystick driver for iOS?

Windows 7 won't connect to bluetooth keyboard

I've been using a Logitech MX5000 keyboard for awhile. I switch between windows and mac via bootcamp all the time. Recently though, I can't use the keyboard while in Windows 7. The keyboard pairs fine, but it is all greyed out. I've tried every suggestion that I can find:
~The keyboard is no longer paired with Mac OSX
~I've tried using Generic windows bluetooth drivers
~I've reinstalled bootcamp drivers.
Nothing seems to give me a permanent fix, and I can't even get it to work at the moment. Anyone know how to fix this?

Sorry if this has already been done, but I've searched for an hour & can't find my solution.
Windows 7 is security-conscious to the point of paranoia. I assume this is the reason it won't sign on to the open services! I get a 'connected' message, followed by 'internet not available'. At no point am I offered a login, and there's nothing in the settings about it.
I bought this laptop so I can travel with it - I need it to recognise Fon and Openzone points wherever they're available, and log itself on. Just like my Blackberry does ...
This has to be a matter of overriding some settings (and perhaps adding a new one). Can someone advise, please?
Hi. Welcome to the forums
My desktop Win 7 connects to FON (I pick the BTOpenzone connection), and when I then try a google, I get presented with a login page. If you aren't seeing the login page, then perhaps you can type in directly :-

10.6.8 Bluetooth will not connect to Apple keyboard

I just upgraded to 10.6.8 and my Apple keyboard, which came with the iMac, can't be recognized by the iMac. My old bluetooth keyboard from my old G5 iMac is recognized and works OK. The little green light on the upper left side of the keyboard just keeps blinking. In the keyboard setup it just keeps searching for the keyboard. Anyone have any ideas to get the new keyboard to connect?

Yes. It's a golden rule to never underestimate the power of coincidence, always expect the unexpected, and that whatever is extremely unlikely will happen at some point.
That's stood me in good stead for 35+ years in IT, but I still kick myself sometimes for overlooking the cause of a simple problem.
Glad you're up & running and that all's well.
