Pairing Apple Bluetooth wireless keyboard with Samsung A-900 phone

I figured out how to pair my Samsung A-900 phone with my bluetooth keyboard.
1) Turn keboard off and then back on
2) on keyboard type "1234" and then press the "return" key
3) search and attempt to pair with keyboard from phone
4) put in the password "1234"
5) it will take a long time with the pairing screen, so I just repeated step 2 here
6) Pairing sucessfull!
but after that I cant seem to figure out how to type....
Any help with the typing issue? at least they are paired ^_^

What I've gathered so far:
It has paired with it, made it a registered device, but it has no idea what it is and thus will not connect with it.

Apple Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard not Connecting to iPad

Hey, I try to connect my Apple Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard is not connecting to my iPad. I tap Bluetooth "On" and it searches for devices. Then I slide the switch on the back of my keyboard to the green light and the iPad picks it up and says "Not Paired." So I tap the keyboard and it just spins and spins and spins until the keyboard times out and powers off. Then it disappears and my iPad can't find any devices. I repeated the process several times and I got the same result.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks

I had a very similar problem, with a new model wireless keyboard. The set-up is not very intuitive (and the instructions for both the iPad and the keyboard are not particularly helpful). Here's how I got it to work:
1. If the keyboard has already been paired with another object -- e.g., I was testing out my iMac keyboard -- you should be completely out of range of that other object (more than 30 feet away).
2. Make sure Bluetooth on the iPad is disabled.
3. The keyboard should not be "on" -- i.e., no solid green light.
4. Press and hold the power button on the keyboard until you get a blinking green light. This should take just a few seconds.
5. Turn on Bluetooth on the iPad.
6. At this point, it should detect the keyboard and instruct you to enter a combination of keys to pair the two devices.
I found that you have to follow this sequence or it won't work. For example, if you have Bluetooth on on the iPad before holding the power button on the keyboard, it won't work.
I hope that helps.

My new apple bluetooth wireless keyboard types a "j" when I hit "k" and a "k" when i hit "j". Any ideas?

HellO:
I would not waste time trying to troubleshoot the problem. Since it is new, call Applecare with a warranty problem. I had a similar problem with a new KB some time ago and it was replaced at no cost (shipping included).

TS3048 Genuine Apple Bluetooth Wireless keyboard - Model A1016

I was given an iMac M6498, wireless keyboard Model A1016 and wireless mouse. The first time I plugged the iMac, the keyboard worked perfectly and the sencond time, it stopped working and it is not recognised. I have changed the batteries and still it's not working.

They should work. You do not say if your problem is with the mouse, the keyboard or both. Is there a green power light showing and is it flickering?
Here are some Apple comments on the mouse.

It may require re-pairing. For that, go to Systems Prefs > Bluetooth.

Apple Bluetooth / Wireless Keyboard Low-Battery Indicator?

Hi All,
Does the iPad show a low-battery indicator when the Apple wireless keyboard is running out of juice? I know OS X is supposed to, but not sure about iOS. I plan to use my keyboard for meetings and depositions where I'd be in a tight spot if I ran out of juice unexpectedly.
Thanks.

Hi,
No, but, "The Apple Wireless Keyboard requires just two AA batteries — one less than the previous model. And its intelligent power management system conserves battery life. *So when you’re not using the keyboard, it automatically powers down. The instant you start typing, it turns back on*. Use the on/off switch when you're away from your computer for a long time."
From here. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC184LL/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
Carry a spare set of AA batteries just in case.

Do Apple offer wireless keyboards with Thai language characters in the UK?

Can't see them in the store. I assume they produce one for Thai customers. I need one for Uni this year and I'm not keen on stickers.

Oh dear, that is annoying! I tried searching on Amazon, but the best they have is English keyboards with Thai characters on them =/
If I find anything, I'll be sure to tell you

Using Apple Bluetooth wireless keyboard/mouse with a MacBook

What is required to use a MacBook with the Apple Wireless Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse?
-- i.e., what 'setup' is required to get the MacBook to recognize those devices and respond to input from them?
Thanks.

To be able to use the mouse and keyboard to full effect, such as key combos on boot and all the mouse buttons, its best to install the drivers from the cd that came with the mouse and keyboard.

TS3092 My Apple bluetooth wireless keyboard caps lock keeps changing so that sometimes the caps are on when the lights on and sometimes the caps are on when the light is off. How do I control this?

My caps lock keeps changing. That is, sometimes the caps are locked and the light is on the key and sometimes the caps are on when the light is off. It changes without my knowing it. Also when I hold the shift key down I hear a double click noise which changes the keys in some way. How do I get it to not change?

Try resetting SMC and NVRAP and then reboot.

Try booting the Recovery Partition. Power off, boot and then hold down the Command and R keys. Is the screen still black? If so it is not a software problem so take it in for diagnosis and repairs. Make a Genius Bar reservation http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar/ or find an Apple Authorized Service Provider https://locate.apple.com/country .
If you are running Mavericks try upgrading to 10.9.2. It has a fix for black screen problems.

Function keys are not working on a paired apple bluetooth keyboard

hello, I just got this apple bluetooth keyboard and paired it to my ipad2. The letter and number keys are working perfectly fine, but my ipad will not respond to F1 to F12 keys,I tried Fn+F1-F12 they are not working. Then I tried to restart both my ipad and keyboard but the problem is still there. Additionally, Command+arrows can't function either. command+space is working though. Could some one please help? thanks a lot!

It might have been functionality that Apple has removed in the current version of iOS. This old web article says the function keys worked in iOS3, but that's a couple of years ago:

Setting apple wireless keyboard with a pc

Ok. I got the new apple bluetooth wireless keyboard in hope to use it both for my mac and pc. It worked fine with mac of course, but with pc (which has a iogear b/t dongle) it did not quite pair up. The bluetooth dongle does recognize the keyboard and prompts me to type in a code in order to pair the keyboard. But, does not show the code that I am supposed to enter from he keyboard.
Does anyone have any solutions? any replies would be much appreciated.
thanks

Why doesn't apple make a wireless keyboard with a built in keypad?

Why doesn't Apple make a bluetooth wireless keyboard with a built in keypad. I don't want clutter on my desktop, but I need a keypad. I think we should demand this product!

You can tell Apple your thoughts on them making such a keyboard:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/
In the meantime, you can get an add-on keypad. If one of the separate keypads is too much clutter, then LMP makes one that attaches directly to, and matches aluminum finish of, the Apple Wireless Keyboard:

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.
