HT4101 How to connect a mechanical keyboard to iPad

I am thinking of purchasing a Rosewill mechanical keyboard for my iPad. Does anyone know if it's possible to connect the two and, if so, how do I go about doing this? Thanks!

ANd he may have been able to. There's a lot of pages out there with things you used to be able to hook up via the USB part of the camera connection kit. But that OS tweak last year altered the amount of battery power allotted to the 30 pin port - which the USB plugs into - and rendered many of those devices now unworkable.
You can try it of course, and some have reported success if they plug those devices first into a powered USB hub then into the iPad (use the powered hub to overcome the lack of output power from the iPad).
The old reports of things that no longer work are very frustrating.

    I have a CASIO electric keyboard, and I use a cable to connect it from its audio output to my macbook's audio input. And I wanna use GarageBand to create a song with that keyboard. But it doesn't work, only my voice is recorded. I don't wanna use a microphone to record cuz makes a lot noise. Can anybody teach me how to connect my keyboard to the GarageBand directly?

    How to connect Apple TV with iPad ?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
    When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices.

    Does the Nikon use a SD card? if so, have you tried to simply pull the photos from the card?
    If not, is your camera on when you try to transfer the files?
    There may also be some settings on the camera to tweak.

  • Connecting apple qireless keyboard to iPad

    I am trying to connect my apple wireless keyboard to use on my iPad - via bluetooth -
    please can someone help with a step by step ?

    Sorry for the rather terse responses you have gotten so far.
    You will first need to make sure you have the proper Apple Wireless Keyboard. Any of the Apple Wireless Keyboards that are super thin and make from Aluminum should work.
    A: On the iPad, go into Settings
    B: Tap on General, then Bluetooth
    C: Make sure the toggle for Bluetooth is in the ON position on this screen. At this point the iPad is in constant search mode.
    D: Pick up you Apple Wireless Keyboard and press and hold the power button on the right hand side of the keyboard until the little indicator light begins to blink in short two pulse bursts.
    E: The device name for the keyboard will now show on the iPad. Tap on it to begin the pairing process.
    F: A notification box will come up on the iPad with instructions on how to complete the pairing process. On the Apple Wireless Keyboard, enter the code number the iPad has displayed and press the enter key on the Apple Wireless Keyboard.
    G: If you are successful, the pairing will be complete and the keyboard will show as connected on the iPad. Start enjoying the typing goodness.
    I hope this helps.. I did not have time to get screen shots of the process, sorry.

  • Connect a MIDI Keyboard to iPad

    Hi-
    As a musician I’d like to be able to play the sounds on my iPad from an external MIDI keyboard - is this possible? I have a MOTU Midi interface already.
    I also assume I can send the output from the headphone socket to an external amp for listening?
    Thanks in advance!
