I'm having issues with my apple wireless keyboard and bootcamp 5

I'm having issues with my apple wireless keyboard.
I just bought an Apple Wireless Keyboard for my ThinkPad E430 but the keys are not compatible.
I installed BootCamp 5 and it worked great but whenever I restart, it changes my system's time.

What do you mean by racing around in circles? Have you done any damage to your phone? Like drop it or get it wet?

My Ipad2 won't pair up with my apple wireless keyboard.

My Ipad2 won't pair up with my apple wireless keyboard. It shows it's available to be paried, but when I try to type the 4 number code and press enter, nothing happens and finally the bluetooth search times out. Anyone with suggestions?

I realize this is an old post, however I had the same problem (Apple 2009 Aluminum BlueTooth keyboard and iPad 2). I kept getting the "Pairing Unsuccessful" message. Here's what worked for me:
1. Turn off the keyboard by holding down the power button until the green light turns off.
2. I power cycled the iPad by holding the sleep/wake and home button until the screen went to black, and turned it on again. (Not sure if this was necessary, but I figure it couldn't hurt.)
3. Holding the keyboard in my lap, I pressed AND HELD the power button in through the next few steps. (DO NOT LET GO UNTIL I SAY SO)
4. At this point, I got the message on the iPad to type the code. YESSSSSSSSS!
5. STILL CONTINUING TO hold in the power button, I keyed in the code and pressed return.
6. Next thing I saw was:
Bluetooth (ON ( ))
Devices
Apple Wireless Keyboard ----------------------------------------- Connected (>)
7. That's it. You can let go of the power button now.
Hope this helps, I thought I'd post this in case anyone else was having similar problems.
Cheers!

I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station.

I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit. Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Yes. Pair using Bluetooth with your MacBook Air.

Are the apple wireless keyboards and mac book pro keyboards the same size?

Are the apple wireless keyboards and the mac book pro keyboards the same size? I have the most current wireless keyboard and I use it with my iPad. Thanks in advance

I took it to the same shop where i purchased they sent it to the apple
service centre and it is a week and no one informed me abt the problem
or the action on it.
We are mainly just users to users here, and sometimes a Apple folk will respond, but it's just a direction to a Apple support document, no service or account issues are handled here.
Will they replace the mac book pro as it is still in warranty
We don't know what Apple will decide to do in your case, the best source of information is the shop you brought it to.
They might be in the process of fixing it, or they might be deciding they need to keep your machine for investigation.
Apple will take care of you, make sure you buy AppleCare and a external drive for TimeMachine if you haven't already.

Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse disconnecting

Just bought new MBP Retina Display (OSX 10.8.2) to replace 1st Gen. MacAir. Used to use Apple Wireless Keyboard and MM on old Air and worked flawlessley for years. New MBP installed both of these older items (keyboard and MM) cleanley when I set up, but almost instantly, after about one minute of working, the keyboard and MM disconnect themselves and the only way to reconnect is power them off and then power back up. I have hanged the batteries on both to high end ones and they are still holding charge very wel.
In my office I have a work PV that also uses two USB wireless devices for the PC keyboard and mouse and then also a small HDX Jam Bluetooth speaker. Also, my iPhone and iPad are around. My Airport Express is about two feet away from the MBP as well. Again, all of these worked just fine with my Air for over five years.
I took the MBP, keyboard and MM into the Apple store and had them check it out. Of course it worked perfectley while I was there, plus I learned that in my new MBP the wireless card has the bluetooth built into it and unless my wireless connections got wonky, then the chances of it being hardware were slim.
I am so out of options. I have tried to identify all environmental factors. I have tried moving the MBP closer, further, etc. and still nothing. It is the wierdest thing and now getting very frustrating because I am having to use the MBP keyboard all the time and it is supposed to be up on a stand and in a more ergonomically friendly position.
Anyone got any suggestions? Is there something I am missing? Is there something in my environment I am unaware of that could be contributing to this?

I have a 15" MBP Retina display from 2012, Lion 10.7.5, running lid closed with bluetooth mouse and keyboard. My desk configuration has not changed but in the last couple of weeks I get both devices disconnecting simultaneously, once or twice per day. The dashed bar disappears from the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar.
I turn bluetooth off and on (lift the lid, using keypad), and then it all works again. I don't need to even touch the mouse or keyboard they instantly reconnect. It is not the magic mouse battery problem, I've suffered through that and have it licked, and that would only take out the mouse. There's nothing obvious in the system logs. No change I know of in nearby electrical appliances or WiFi configuration.

DBT-120, Apple Wireless Keyboard, and a Mystery

My Apple Wireless Keyboard randomly goes through these periods where it will disconnect for no reason. I don't recieve a "Connection Lost" message, and the bluetooth icon in the menu bar still believes it's connected -- the keys just don't do anything. If I attempt to disable bluetooth and then enable the computer gets stuck with the spinning beach-ball of doom. If turn the keyboard on and off nothing happens. If I unplug the D-Link DBT-120 Rev. B2 from the built-in USB and plug it back in, a few seconds later the keyboard works again.
I have changed the batteries and that hasn't resolved anything. I've attempted to change the DBT-120 to a different Built-In USB port and still nothing. I've attempted to pinpoint a specific program, task, or enviromental item but have failed. I can't find a common thread.
Sometimes this will happen once or twice in an hour period. Sometimes it will happen every 2 minutes. Restarting the computer also corrects the issue for a while. It will go days once and a while without the issue... the sometimes it'll happen for hours on end.
The DBT-120 is up to date with the latest firmware. And I of course can't install the Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Firmware because I'm already in Tiger. Nor do I have access to a machine that I can.
I contacted D-Link and they said they have had no reported issues... The only calls they have received about the DBT-120 Rev B2 not working were caused by PC driver issues... or a unit that died caused by power surges. He said if the unit was causing the issue the OS would lose Bluetooth all together -- it would be the same as just unplugging it.
So.... any ideas?

Have you tried pulling the batteries out, & maybe try a set of fresh Alkaline batteries?

1 Macbook Air, 2 sets of Apple Wireless Keyboard and Magic Trackpad

i have a 2011 Macbook Air, i wish to use it at home and work,in clamshell mode so i will connect an external monitor in both but with the computer closed.
so can i have 2 sets one at home and one at work of Apple Wireless Keyboard and Magic Track pad ? Any issues?

Yes, you can pair all four devices with the air. You might have minor issues if you sleep the MBair in one location and wake in the other. The new keyboard/mouse might not connect without you connecting it via bluetooth menulet.

Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mice Drop Off | Hot Run Temp 2 Life | Crash

I find that The Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mice stay connected but lose functionality. I have to reboot the mouse and keyboard. Pairing the devices again also fixed the problem temporarily. The drops are quite annoying and I see some commonality in some of the other posts.
In Second Life the processor runs at 183 degrees which is much higher
Mac Crashes. Never had this before the Grey Screen of Death. I think this occurred in Itunes.

I'm also having Bluetooth problems. The mouse periodically "slows to a crawl" and I have to cycle it's power.

Apple Wireless Keyboard and Mouse + Bootcamp = screensaver problems

I can't seem to get the screensaver to activate when using the apple wireless keyboard and mouse under windows XP with Bootcamp.
I know its a problem with the wireless devices because if i restart the computer and not press anything (ie. mouse or keyboard) then the screensaver will work.
However as soon as I press the mouse or move the cursor around, the screensaver will fail to activate on its own, or if it activates, it will wake itself up even if I don't move the mouse or press the keyboard.
Any solutions?

Hi Capfred: Thank you for your replay. I have tried to follow your information but unable to solve the problem. I followed your comments but I am unable to get to the menu you mention. I have installed MAC OS X, Version 10.7.2 .
The only thing that works is the Apple last wireless mouse. I belive that I must have done something that created this situation. My problem is that I live in Panama, Central America and the local Apple dealer has little to no tech support.
Would it be possible for me to call you and review the config of these items or is there a way to restore the Macbook Air to the original installation .
I appreciate your kind help and once again thank you for your help. Regards,
Ruben

I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help please...

I have Mac Pro 2007, which have no bluetooth hardware. What should I do to use Apple wireless keyboard and magic mouse??? Can 'third party's internal bluetooth card' be used for this purpose? Help me please...

You can find the Apple Bluetooth card on eBay for as little ten dollars (says its for the 2008 model Mac Pro, not sure about the 2007).
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bluetooth-Board-iMac-and-Mac-Pro-922-8233-922-8233-/1208 49278570
Here is a link to a full explanation of the card and how to install it. Part numbers may differ a bit as that is an old article and newer models have come out.
http://www.xlr8yourmac.com/systems/Mac_Pro/Bluetooth_MacPro_install/Bluetooth_Ma cPro_install.html
Just make sure that the part will work in your model Mac Pro. To that end, you may be better off avoiding eBay and going to a parts reseller. There are even third party cards that use the internal Apple bluetooth slot.
http://fastmac.com/bluetooth.php
In theory, using a USB or PCI card will work at login so long as it is recognized by Apples drivers. You say you need to launch an application to use your current USB Bluetooth dongle? If it is not controlled by the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar then it must be using a third party driver of some sort. Unfortunately, I don't know off hand which USB and PCI cards are supported.

Having Issues with iTunes 10.5.3 and uninstalled. Cannot reinstall without upgrading to newest Snow Leopard? Using MacBook Pro running 10.5.8.

Running OS X Leopard 10.5.8 and was having issues with my version of iTunes 10.5.3 (freezing and getting rainbow spinny wheel, not allowing me to do anything, while importing music from a different folder into the iTunes). Anyway, so I uninstalled iTunes and went to download the newest version (10.7 i believe) and after downloading and attempting to install, i was alerted that I cannot install and run this application without having the newest version of OS X 10.6 i believe. So, what I'm ultimately trying to figure out is if I need to spend $130(that i do not have) on Amazon to get the Snow Leopard 10.6.3 then pay another $20 in the App Store to upgrade to Mountain Lion as well? I need to have iTunes on this laptop due to having an iPhone 4 that needs to be able to be synced on this computer. Bottom Line is, I don't have really have $150 to upgrade all this at the current moment just to get iTunes back on my system. Any suggestions or am I basically having to drop the $150 just to get iTunes back so I can sync my iPhone 4 again? Ugh, this *****, really wish i hadn't uninstalled that version of iTunes..HELP!!! thanks in advance..

Click here and install the software. If you decide to upgrade to 10.6 at some future point, phone the online Apple Store.

Apple Wireless Keyboard and annoyance with fn and backspace key

Hi everybody,
Just took delivery of this beautiful Apple Wireless Keyboard but having only one problem with it. I've figured out how in System Preferences/Keyboard & Mouse/Keyboard it's possible to check the box which allows the F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys but when it's checked I also have to use the fn key to make the Backspace key work like a normal backspace. If I don't use the fn key the Backspace key will eat any type in front of the curser instead of backing up and eating the type behind it. Why is this..? I mean the Backspace Key isn't even on the same row as all the F keys are so why am I having to use the fn key to change the function of the Backspace key..? Actually it would be nicer if the function of with or without the fn key was reversed. Anyone know how I can change that..?
paul

Ahhh forget it..
I realized having that option checked made other keys do screwy things as well unless I used the fn key with them so I've gone back to using the fn key only when I need to use the F keys..

I was having issues with syncing my 80G video iPod, so I restored it, and now all my songs in my library are "corrupted" and I can't get them back on my iPod. I keep getting error(-69). How did my songs all get corrupted, and how do I fix this without having to purchase these songs all over again?
