Will wireless keyboard for 1 iPad interfere with another iPad?

I have an iPad 2 (WiFi) on order. I will probably get a second one for my wife.
I have 2 questions about the wireless keyboard:
1) If I get a wireless keyboard, can I use it for either iPad?
2) If my wife and I are both using apps at the same time on our separate iPads that require text input and my wife is using the keyboard for hers, will it interfere with the text input on my iPad?

You can have multiple iPads in the same room, each with their own assigned/paired keyboard.  I suppose at some level they might interfere with each other (like tens of thousands of cell phones at a BIG sports event), but I have seen labs with dozens of keyboards and iPads with no problem!

  • I have an Apple wireless keyboard that I use with my iPad 2.  Does it work with the iPad 3?

    I have an Apple wireless keyboard synced to my iPad 2.  Can sync this same keyboard be used with my iPad 3?  If so, what are the syncing instructions?

    Assuming you are talking about the aluminium keyboard the answer is yes.  I had some problems trying to get my iPad 2/keyboard combo to 'forget' their connection but one complete the keyboard connected to my iPad 3.

  • How can an ipad communicate with another ipad to show a presentaion from one to many others in the room with ipad

    Hi,
    I would like a ipad to talk to another to do a presentation . Ideally one ipad will be the main presentation tool and the owner will turn pages on his and then the other ipads will do the same without anyone touching them.

    1. Drag and drop or by selecting the pics you want to move and then clicking on the + button on the toolbar...
    2. Yes
    3. Select a pic and right click on it. Select Get Info:
    4. At this time you can only change dates on photos.

    a friend told me that he wants my os x cd for my macbook pro to upgrade his imac.
    The discs that come with your Mac are "machine specfic" and cannot be used on another Mac.

  • I have bought the wireless keyboard for my iPad.  I was working for a day but now the power light won't stay on and as such won't connect to the iPad.  I have changed the batteries but still no difference.

    Not knowing which wireless keyboard you bought, it is difficult to be specific.  but ...
    it is quite normal for the keyboard's power light not to stay on - it is a way of conserving battery power.
    Try this:
    turn you keyboard off
    on your iPad go to Settings > Bluetooth
    if your keyboard is listed under Devices, then touch the little blue i to its right and choose Forget this Device
    now reset your iPad:  hold both the Home and Power buttons down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears, let go promptly when the Apple logo appears and wait another 30 seconds for your iPad to turn itself on
    After your iPad is back on again go back to Settings > Bluetooth
    now turn your keyboard back on and see if it appeard under Now Discoverable
         if it doesn't read your keyboard guide to figure out how to put it into Discovery mode
    touch the listing for your keyboard under Now Discoverable, it should now appear under Devices
    touch the listing for you keyboard under Devices, and choose to pair with it.

  • Can not locate wireless keyboard for my iPad

    My wireless keyboard for my ipad is no longer displayed on the screen that the Bluetooth app is.
    I have tried everything.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Do you mean that when you go into Settings > Bluetooth > your wireless keyboard is not listed under devices?
    If so:
    make sure your keyboard is charged.
    turn your keyboard off,  reset your iPad, turn the keyboard back on, see if it shows up, put it in discovery mode see if it shows up
    to reset your iPad:
    Hold both the Home button and the Power button down for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears.
    Let go promptly when it appears.
    Wait 30 seconds or so for your iPad to restart.
    No information or settings will be lost.

    I have a wireless keyboard for my ipad and it says to charge it connect it to my pc.  can i charge it by connecting it to my ipad?

    No. The iPad's port won't put out enough power. You could probably plug your keyboard into your iPad charger and charge it that way, but it won't charge off the iPad.

    Have you tried to go into bluetooth and telling it to forget your keyboard?
    Drastic but might enable you to repair the devices and see if it clears up the glitch.
    I had a period of time when my iPad always sensed and used my bluetooth keyboard. I think it finally went away after I powered down the iPad. (not just a put to sleep, a bonafide 'slide the red slider to shut it down' powering down.

  • The volume keys on my Logitech K760 wireless keyboard do not work with my 2.3 GHz, Intel Core i5 Mac mini which runs Mac OS X 10.7.4. Anyone know how to correct this without having to re-code firmware?

    My first post to the Apple Support Community so it looks like all I wanted to know is covered in the title. The research I have done led me to solutions that I am not comfortable trying for fear of irreparably damaging my keyboard and/or Mac mini. Does anyone have a simpler solution? Please? Hellooooo?
    Just in case the title is too long to show, I have re-pasted here:

  • HT2452 just got a replacement wireless keyboard for imac but comp doesn't recognize it and won't connect. can't type or use it. any suggestions?

    Just got a relpacement wireless keyboard for my imac but the computer won't recognize it and b/c i can't use the keyboard (type) there's little troubleshooting i can do. how do i reconnect this? thanks!

    You may need a wired keyboard to carry out some of these steps. It's a good idea to keep a cheap wired keyboard and mouse or trackball as backups for a desktop Mac anyway, because Bluetooth isn't completely reliable.
    Step 1
    Follow the instructions in these support articles:
    How to set up your Apple Wireless Keyboard
    Apple Wireless Keyboard: Difficulty during pairing process
    Step 2
    The keyboard should pair automatically when you reboot. You may have to press and hold the power button on the right side of an Apple keyboard until the LED starts flashing.
    Step 3
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 4
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Reboot.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combinationcommand-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    See these support articles:
    Bluetooth keyboard may not pair during Setup Assistant
    Wi-Fi and Bluetooth: Potential sources of wireless interference
    Bluetooth: Unreliable wireless performance may occur when USB 3.0 external devices are close
    Step 6
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

  • Wireless keyboard for Palm TX and Adobe reader update?

    I am considering purchasing a wireless keyboard for a Palm TX. Will the 3169WW work? If purchased new, what driver will it come with ( what driver do I need?). How universal is this keyboard? I have Adobe Reader 3.05 on the TX. Should I be looking for a newer version. Thank You!
    Post relates to: Palm TX

    I just deployed a "new (!) TX and the Palm Bluetooth Keyboard, after years of using the Tungsten T3.  For the most part I'm happy with both.  There's just a little downside to the keyboard, that is, the lack of a key combination to duplicate the Graffiti stroke that involkes shortcuts (these are the mostly custom texts that you set up in Prefs to insert by making the stroke followed by just one or two or three characters).  On the Ultrathin Keyboard, which I used with the T3, the fn-ctrl combination made the shortcut stroke on the screen, after which I could type (for example) "dts," which would insert a date and time stamp.  I think the Palm infrared wireless keyboard does the same thing.  If there is such a functionality on the BT keyboard, it's not documented and I cannot find it.  (I suspect that it may have been left out because it may be mostly used with smartphones, Treo series etc., which have the hardware keyboards and so dispense with Graffiti, but I use the Graffiti shortcuts a lot, so this omission makes me a somewhat unhappy camper.  If anyone has discovered a way to invoke this function on the BT keyboard, I would be very interested.)
