  • Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it works automatically with either macbook pro or iPad depending on which is turned on or do I have to go through the delete one and re-pair the other process every time?

    Is it possible to connect a wireless keyboard so that it automatically connects to whichever previously paired device is turned on?

  • Is it possible to sync a wireless keyboard to apple tv

    I have an apple wireless keyboard that I would like to sync to apple tv 2nd generation
    to make it easier to do movie or youtube searches, rather than selecting each letter using the remote
    will this work??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No that's not possible unfortunately. Do you have an iPod/iPhone or iPad you can use.

  • Is it possible to use the wireless keyboard on a PC?

    After assurances from the Apple store that the Bluetooth Keyboard would work with my Windows machine, I went ahead and ordered one.
    However, although the bluetooth software recognises the keyboard it asks for a security code, that I can't find, plus, none of the keys seem to work.
    Anyone know the answer?
    G4 733 G3 Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    I thought this might be a difficult question to ask here. I primarily use Macs, which in part is why I chose Apple's bluetooth keyboard, as I figured I could use it with my Powerbook aswell.
    As this keyboard is obviously incompatible with my Windows box, I wonder how you get on with an Intel Mac running OSX and XP Pro. Do you need two keyboards......hmmmm.
    Thanks

  • Lock wireless keyboard

    Is it possible to lock the wireless keyboard?
    I don't want accidental keyhits activate the computer, or shut it down as the housekeeper did today.
    Thanks for your help

    Hi there,
    If you are using sleep mode then just switch wireless keyboard off, hold power button, green light comes on, keep holding until it switches off, also saves the battery!

  • New wireless Keyboard with terrible battery life

    Is this how they all work?
    I recently bought a wireless keyboard for my mac mini that's in a closet functioning as a media server. It seems that the battery life is terrible. I used the keyboard for about one hour one day and didn't touch the device for two weeks. After this two week interlude the batteries were dead. This is the 2nd time I have noticed this.
    So should I remove the batteries when not using the keyboard. I can't seem to tell if the keyboard is on or off by pushing the button since the keyboard light doesn't stay on when in use.
    I have other wireless keyboards that seem to have battery life that go and go and go

    One Possible EXPLANATION For Apple Wireless Keyboards Or Mice GOING THROUGH BATTERIES In A Matter Of Weeks is as follows:
    When you shut down or sleep your Mac, if there is a second Mac running at some distance away (up to 100 meters distance), and this distant Mac has bluetooth switched on, and was, for some reason, previously been paired with your wireless keyboard or mouse, then I believe the keyboard or mousewill try to link to the distant Mac after you have shut down the local Mac, using all its available transmission power to overcome the distance, and thereby wearing down the batteries.
    This happened to me. I have two Macs in the house, and paired my new wireless keyboard with both computers, just so that I could use this keyboard with either Mac.
    But when I shut down the Mac I was using, without me realizing, my wireless keyboard that I had in front of me would then link up to my other distant Mac (which was usually always running), located at the other side of my house, and in doing so, my wireless keyboard would wear out its batteries in weeks from the power drain due to long distance transmission and reception.
    Whether this battery draining from long distance transmission and reception can also occur when the wireless keyboard or mouse has not been paired with the distant Mac, I am not sure. It's conceivable that in the bluetooth polling mode, where the distant computer is trying to link up to the wireless keyboard or mouse, there could also be substantial power draining from long distance transmission and reception (especially if bluetooth is set to discoverable).
    Someone may want to test this: seeing if bluetooth polling over distance can drain power. Who knows, it may be that your neighbor has a Mac, and so when you switch off your computer, your wireless keyboard or mouse spends all night trying to link to your neighbor's Mac.

  • Can I sync my 3rd generation Ipad with four (4) wireless keyboards. I see patients is four (4) different exam rooms? I would like to just carry the Ipad from room to room,

    Is it possible to use multiple wireless keyboards with my new Ipad. I would be moving from room to room and just using the keyboard in that room. If this helps, the same medical app will be running to access each patients chart.
    Thank for any help

    The app is irrelevant. Assuming each is compatable with the iPad, you should.

  • Trackball/pad on wireless keyboard

    Hi All,
    One possible advantage of a wireless keyboard would be that you could use it in your
    lap; only problem is the cursor. I'm just curious when we're going to get a trackball/pad
    on our cool, sleek, whizzy mac wireless keyboards?

    Because Apple has not made one with a 10-key pad yet.
    You can leave feedback for Apple at:

  • Can I pair my Mac with two wireless keyboards and trackpads?

    I have a MacBook Pro.  I want to have external display (and wireless keyboard and trackpad) at all 3 places I work.  Is that possible?  I read that it's possible to have a wireless keyboard work with multiple devices, but I couldn't find if it works the other way.  thanks

    I have two offices and I move my Mac between them.  I have paired both wiresless keyboards and when I show up at the other office it just pairs automatically.

  • Wireless Keyboard frequently drops connection after MacBook repair

    Just got my MacBook (1st gen, Core Duo) back from repair from an authorized service provider. They replaced the bottom and top case because of cracks. Since then my Apple Wireless Keyboard (the new one from summer '07) keeps dropping the connection every few minutes. I've never had these problems before (running 10.5.1). The weird thing is that the "connection lost" icons pops up but I can still type. Batteries are at 60% the keyboard is just a few inches away from the MacBook. Can this be related to the new top case?

    Hi Benedikt!
    The Bluetooth module that allows your machine to communicate with the keyboard is located almost right above the opening to your optical drive on the right-hand side of the machine. It's possible that during reassembly the sensor was not reinserted properly or the short, thin, little wire that runs to the logic board was damaged just enough to "work sometimes."
    As you just received it back, I'd recommend contacting the service provider and explain the issue that you're experiencing. The other option, if you have that available to you, is to try connecting another Bluetooth device to your machine and see if it too frequently loses connection. That way you can at least further determine if it's hardware related or peripheral related.

  • Is it possible to use the Apple wireless keyboard with the iPhone 6? Will the Magic Mouse work with iMovie on iPhone6 Plus?

    iPhone 6 page says that iMovie is a (free) application available for iPhone 6. When I use it on the desktop I need a mouse. Should I expect all controls to be touch-sensitive, or is it possible to use the wireless Magic Mouse? Similarly, if I want to type an email or a long document, is it possible to use the Mac wireless keyboard to enter text? With the iPhone 6 Plus taking over for laptops (phablet), it seems to me that input tools are relevant. Maybe what I'm asking is whether the iPhone6 (OS8) has drivers for these devices. Please advise.

    Apps that are designed for iOS devices such as the iOS version of iMovie are intended to be used entirely by touch. It's worth noting that iMovie for iOS is not absolutely identical to iMovie for Mac OS.

  • HT201178 Is it possible to use an Apple wireless keyboard with a MacBook Pro? Sounds odd, I know, but I much prefer typing on a wireless keyboard.

    With a MacBook Pro..is it possible to use an Apple wireless keyboard instead of the keyboard built into the MacBook Pro? I much prefer typing on the wireless keyboard. Thanks

    Hello:
    If the Macbook Pro has Bluetooth built-in, the answer is yes.

  • Wireless Keyboard Repair?

    I have three wireless keyboards that formerly worked with iMac G5's. All three can probably pair. All three have at least one key that won't activate when pressed. I suspect at least one of them have numerical keys which won't activate when pressed, and subsequently won't pair with an iMac.
    I'm aware of changing the Mouse Keys preference. I haven't identified the Mouse Keys preference because two other keyboards were working as expected.
    Any thoughts on the feasibility in repairing these keyboards? I'm hoping that something simple like a good cleaning will fix what ails these three keyboards.
    Thanks for reading!

  • Is it possible to set up 2013 Mac Pro with wireless keyboard?

    Is a connected keyboard required to set up 2013 Mac Pro or is it possible to do with just a wireless keyboard/mouse?

    I use the Blue Tooth Keyboard and Wireless mouse that came with my MacPro.  I've never had any trouble using it during a Fresh install setup.
    The Trackpad, however, is a different story.  That has never worked during the setup.  I have to get the OS istalled and set up the trackpad before I can use it.
