HT4112 how do i pair bluetooth apple keyboard and iphone5?

I am trying to pair my wireless bluetooth apple keyboard with my iPhone 5. It recognizes the keyboard but will not pair with it. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!

1)   Turn on bluetooth on your iPhone (under settings)
2)   Make sure your bluetooth on your computer is not on (this is esp. applicable if it's a mac of any sort).
3)   Turn on power on the apple wireless keyboard
4) The keyboard should show up on the bluetooth list of paired devices on the iPhone's bluetooth menu.    It'll say it's not paired.
5) Touch this line in order to begin the pairing process.   The iPhone will give you a 4 digit code to type into the wireless keyboard.
6)   Once you type in the code, the iPhone will tell you if it is paired successfully, and then you'll be good to go.
There's some youtube videos as well.     I referred to this one originally:

First you have to unpair them from their previous devices.

Brand new Macbook Pro not pairing with Apple Keyboard and mouse!

Hi all, I have a brand new Macbook Pro and an older wireless Apple Keyboard and Mouse (that were being previously used with my imac G5).
Now I want to use these for this macbook. I am finding that they are being recognised but not pairing up?
Do you need to stop the previous pairing with the imac before they will pair with the Macbook?
Or do I need to update specific software? (I would have thought it has all the necessary updates already installed).
I am running Snow leopard.
I have brand new batteries in the keyboard and mouse.
I really appreciate any helpful advice. Sorry if the answer is obvious!
Thanks

Hi there, i had a problem pairing an Apple wireless keyboard with my MacBook pro but managed to solve it.
The default passkey option in Bluetooth setup assistant is 'automatic' which will (if the MacBook can 'see' the keyboard in the first instance) then say something like 'your device may prompt you to enter the following passcode 1234 5678'
Obviously the keyboard doesn't provide any feedback - I went ahead and typed the number and hit the return key a number of times - the MacBook then displayed a 'pairing failed - you may have entered the incorrect passkey' message.
What i was doing wrong was keying only numbers - when i keyed 1234[SPACE]5678 + RETURN pairing worked.
I had thought the 'gap' in the passcode was to make it easier to read, not that it implied a space in the passcode.
Hope that helps.

Can I use an apple keyboard and track pad with my iPad Air?

How do I use my apple keyboard and track pad with my iPad Air?

I did all that you suggest before and it didn't work. So I waited a bit and tried again and it finally worked. Not sure what the problem was as I didn't do anything differently.
Thank you for all your help.

Can't pair my bluetooth Apple keyboard with AppleTV 3

I just updated my AppleTV 3 to 5.2 and tried to pair my bluetooth Apple keyboard, but nothing is happening. I've tried restarting the AppleTV, making sure all of my keyboard setting are set correctly (including being discoverable), and restarting the actual keyboard. The closest I've gotten to success is if I turn off my keyboard, and then turn it back on while holding the "On" button for a few seconds longer--then the keyboard pops up under Devices and gives me the option to Pair. When I select that option--I get the little daisy wheel for awhile, and then the keyboard listed under Devices disappears again. A quick check to see if the keyboard is working proves that no long term connection has be made. (Oh, and just in case--yes the batteries are fully charged). What I'm curious about, is there a step by step procedure that I'm supposed to be doing to make this work? It seems like it shouldn't be this hard.

The ATV only supports bluetooth for keyboards.
Posting your email in a public, world-wide forum is not smart.

How can I pair with Apple TV without going to set up on Apple TV?

How can I pair with Apple TV without going to set up on Apple TV?

Sign up for what? All you need is airplay enabled on ATV, then when iPad is on the same network you double tap home button, swipe (left to right motion) and you will bring up the volume/brightness controls, along with airplay. Tap on airplay (rectangle with triangle in it) and select ATV, toggle ON mirroring.
The only way to mirror the iPad is wirelessly through ATV or by purchasing the adapter and connecting directly to your TV. Bluetooth via your Blu-Ray player won't help with this.

How do I pair an apple key board to a brand new mac mini?

How do I pair an apple key board to a brand new mac mini?

Have you tried a wired keyboard to turn on the BT system? Macs can require some special key-combinations that *must* be seen before the OS starts and BT sometimes does not activate before the OS.

I have a macmini on order, I wonder if I can pair the wireless apple keyboard and magic touchpad without using any other input devices, especially, since everything is brand new and not yet paired.

You may just want to save yourself any possible issues
by just hooking up a wired keyboard and mouse on first
start up. Any USB keyboard and mouse should work.
There have been many that have had problems on first boot
using the Bluetooth devices.

Found English Keyboard and English Apple Keyboard And How to remove apple keyboard language

I have found 2 english language keyboard It occur in Windows 8 pro
one is united stated(Apple)keyboard
and one is US Keyboard
Sometime it show up when i change the language
question 1:What is difference between US(Apple)Keyboard and US Keyboard
question 2:How to remove US(Apple)Keyboard?
question 3:Does it have affect when i remove US(apple)Keyboard?
question 4:How it appear on iMac windows 8?

If you are using a keyboard made by Apple, then you should normally choose US(Apple) keyboard to make sure that all the characters are typed the way they appear on the keys. If for some reason you are using a Windows keyboard, then you should normally use US instead of US(Apple).
The two versions exist because there can be differences between Apple and other keyboards.
It is not a good idea to "remove" anything. For info on how to deactivate a keyboard in a Windows system, you need to consult the Help for that system or ask in a Windows forum.

Can you dual sync your bluetooth apple keyboard to both your ipad2 and your mac?

I want to link a keyboard to my ipad2...can i sync my bletooth apple keyboard and bluetooth mouse to my ipad2 and keep it synced with my mac mini?

I haven't done it intentionally, but while it seems to be technically possible to have the bluetooth keyboard "connect" to one and then the other, it gets messy if both devices are on at the same time and near each other. I don't recommend it.
A mouse doesn't have any utility with a finger and gesture based iOS device so that will be Mac Mini only.
