Using bluetooth apple keyboard simultaneously with logitech ?

I wiish to add an Apple wireless keyboard to my setup, but keep Logitech wireless keyboard and mice through Unifying.
Is this feasible ? Anyone ever experienced this ?
I'm avoiding to enter the "why" of this, but matter of logistics.
Tks

Device 10:9A:DD:9C:3D:DA
Name: Apple Wireless Keyboard
Alias: Apple Wireless Keyboard
Class: 0x002540
Icon: input-keyboard
Paired: no
Trusted: yes
Blocked: no
Connected: no
LegacyPairing: yes
Note that the device doesn't say its paired. It needs to be paired before you can connect to it.
Though I'm not sure of exactly what is causing the problem, try keeping all the commands within your bluetoothctl session and give explicit commands for registering the agent, so:
$ bluetoothctl
[NEW] Controller XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX hostname [default]
[bluetooth]# power on
[bluetooth]# agent KeyboardOnly
[bluetooth]# default-agent
[bluetooth]# scan on
Now wait for the device to show up on the scan, it will immediately return to prompt, but the prompt will change as devices are found.
[bluetooth]# scan off
[bluetooth]# pair XX:
You can tab-complete the address or enter the whole thing. It should prompt you for a pin if necessary. Wait until pairing is complete before you trust and connect to it.
Since you're using an apple wireless keyboard, I think it actually requires you to type the pin on the keyboard you are trying to connect to, you might want to look up Apple's instructions for this. In this case your computer would generate the pin to give to the new keyboard instead of the other way around.

Does anyone know how to use an Apple Keyboard A1359 with a MacBook Air?

I'm going to ask the hosts to move this to the macbook forum since you're more likely to get answers there than in the iPad one.

Bluetooth Wireless Apple Keyboard comes with Energizer batteries? Can't seem to register my new keyboard too.

Bluetooth Wireless Apple Keyboard comes with Energizer batteries? Can't seem to register my new keyboard too.
I bought this new keyboard from the Ala Moana Store and was surprised to open the sealed box with two Energizer AA batteries inside. I didn't know batteries were supplied. The road clear plastic seal over the battery door was also missing. I am a little suspicious that this was a resealed return item.
The next thing I am trying to do is get it registered (like all my other apple items) just in case this turns out to be a lemon, but I can't seem to find a way to add it to my other items. There's no category 'Bluetooth' or 'Keyboard' in the equipment selection list.
So here's my question, did I get a used item that was resealed and put on the shop shelf? Someone else paid for this so it isn't showing up on my list of items. I would like to add it.
Thanks.
Mike

Hello Mik:
You cannot register a KB. Apple does not keep a database of peripheral devices.
I would question the store about the unwrapped batteries.... I would suspect that the device was returned by someone else.

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.

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:

Yes you can use two (or more) AppleTVs with one iTunes library. They can both stream from iTunes (or the internet) at the same time, as long as you have a good working LAN and internet connection.

Can you use a Apple USB Superdrive with Windows

Hello,
I frequently finding myself wanting to use my Apple USB Superdrive with my work computer but havent had any luck being able to load CDs to play or burn.
If anybody has a solution or information please advise.
Windows XP Pro, Version 2002, Service Pack 3
Thanks,
Will

It should work, as long as the drive is getting sufficient power. It is possible that your Windows PC is not providing enough power through the USB port.

I get the following error message when I connect a usb ethernet adapter to my new MacBook Pro: Unsupported - You cannot use an Apple USB Modem with this computer. I live were we only have dial-up and the Apple Store said this is what I need.

I live where we only have dial-up and the Apple Store said this is what I need. In addition, when I connect the phone to the connecter it falls out, it will not click in.

Why are you using a usb ethernet adaptor? Just plug the modem into the usb port.

I guess if you travel the iPhone is not the device to buy.
And which device to buy for travel? As far as I know other smartphone platforms even don't have an update facility like AppStore. And by the way what are your criteria for the perfect travel phone? I would place being able to use it in other countries (world phone), having easy access to internet and email and ability to remotely sync Contacts and Calendar on top of my list. All of which iPhone is capable like few other phones.
I'm sorry, John, but your statement seems like utter nonsense and is misleading for others. First being able to update apps doesn't cross my mind as a main functionality for travel. Second I was just travelling to SC and easily installed a new app from iPhone and updated an existing one. In your case I believe there's a mishap with AppStore. Probably you have a false update notification. Just compare versions of the apps you have with the versions of the same apps AppStore shows. I bet version are same. That's why it doesn't let you install.
If you want to sync your iPhone Contacts and Calendar (which seems more like a genuine travel requirement) you can do it via MobileMe or Yahoo and few other similar web services.

My apple keyboard pairs with iphone but letters don't type

My apple keyboard pairs with iphone but letters don't type. Brightness and sound work fine. This is a new problem. The two worked fine together for months.

Simply try turning of your iphone, then restart. See what happens. IT WORKED!

No, the iPad won't recognise it. If you are wanting to copy content to the iPad then you will need to copy it to your computer first, and you can then sync it to your iPad.

Using New Apple Keyboard with Tiger

Hey all,
So I recently got one of the new Apple Keyboards
(http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB869LL/A?fnode=MTY1NDA1Mg&mco=Nzk3NjM4NQ) for me to use with my Macbook, which is connected to an external display. However, the one problem I've been having is that it seems like the function keys are mapped differently between Leopard/SL and Tiger, so that when I press F12, which should be volume up according to my keyboard, Dashboard appears instead, which is what happens on my Tiger Macbook's actual keyboard. Now this would be fine and dandy as long as F5 corresponded to volume up as well, as it does originally, but f5 now refreshes my internet page. Is there any way to correct this? Thanks.

Check if reassigning keys in preferences > keyboard > keyboard shortcuts does anything
Not sure if this helps:
[DoubleCommand|http://doublecommand.sourceforge.net> is software for Mac OS X (a kernel extension) that lets you remap keys. Has a preset variety of key modifier remappings, specifically for adapting PC keyboards to Mac users.

HT5636 I am using an Apple keyboard with numeric key pad.

I have a new Mac OSX 10.9.2. I am using Bootcamp to run WIndows 8.1.
I have just connected a new USB Apple keyboard with numeric key pad.
All works fine in OSX. But in windows the numeric numbers on the keypad wont work.
Numlock appears to work, but nothing happens when the number keys are pressed.
The keys / * - +and entre all work ok. Just not the numbers.
MIcrosoft SUPPORT REFUSED to help me because i am using a mac, they claim it is a hardware problem.

I would look for a program which would display the ascii value of typed letters
if i had the letter the key send one can assign that value to any other function one wish
https://www.google.dk/search?q=program+which+display+the+acsii+of+typed+letters& oq=program+which+display+the+acsii+of+typed+letters&aqs=chrome..69i57.11855j0j4& sourceid=chrome&es_sm=93&ie=UTF-8#q=program+which+display+the+ascii+of+typed+let ters&spell=1
if the program would get no ascii value from the num keyboard then I suppose ms were correct
if not then there are tons of free programs to reassign keys as one see fit
and even if they were not to work one can do it manually in regedit in windows
