  • 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.

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard not connecting

    I started up my iMac this morning to notice that the keyboard was not connected, meaning I could not enter my password. The moment I started typing a dialogue would pop up to pair a wireless keyboard. Near the bottom it said "attempting to connect to Apple Wireless Keyboar #1" but after a few seconds it just said "no devices found. It just repeats this process over and over. I've replaced the batteries and tried resetting the keyboard but neither solved the problem... Is there any way to force pair? I don't have access to another keyboard and need to use my computer. Please help!

    Sadly, I think you're stuck without a USB KB at this point.

  • Wireless keyboard not connecting

    My wireless keyboard has suddenly stopped working, I've changed the batteries and it continues to not be discoverable via bluetooth.  How do I reconnect it?

    Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant and while that's searching for Devices turn the keyboard off and on (repeat) to re-pair it.

  • My zagg keyboard will not connect to iPad Air even though it has been working fine

    My Zagg keyboard will not connect with my iPad Air even though it has been working fine for weeks.  Bluetooth and keyboard are on and keyboard is connected to iPad.

    Hey Leelll,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like you are having trouble using a bluetooth keyboard with your iPad. If it is paired to a second iPad that may be an issue.

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard lost connection when "command+space" is pressed

    Hi, my apple wireless keyboard lost connection when command and space key was pressed. it does not lost connection when other keys combination was pressed. Are there any people has the same problem with me?
    I am using Emacs all the time, the command and space key is the default short cut for Mark in Emacs. It is constantly used in my daily work. The wireless keyboard does not lost connection always, but it does lost connection sometimes. I have observed every time it lost connection, the command + space was pressed. Really strange. Any advice?
    I am using Macbook Pro 13inch Late 2012,  OSX 10.9.1, and Apple Wireless Keyboard

    Got the keyboard working again, here how incase it can help anyone else:
    I borrowed a USB keyboard to allow me to get past the pasword login.
    First I rang disk utitlity to repair any permissions. I opended up the app 'Bluetooth Setup Assistant' selected 'Keyboard' then I turned the keyboard 'on' so the green light is flashing' and then hit continue. At this point the keyboard appears in the listing of found items, hitting continue I am then given a unique pairing code. Enter this on the keyboard and hit 'Return' after a few seconds, the pairing is complete and by wireless keyboard is back and working again!

  • Taking too much time and not connecting to ipad software server

    taking too much time and not connecting to ipad software server and not updating.. why

    because everyone is doing the same thing you are... be patient, and you will get the update... I had to grab the update over 3G (it won't let you download or install, but it got me in the door) and then switch back to wifi and download and install.

  • HT1296 I have not connected my iPad to a pc yet and it has my songs on it that are on iTunes, will I lose this if I plug it onto a PC?

    I have not connected my iPad to a pc yet and it has my songs on it that are on iTunes, will I lose this if I plug it onto a PC?

    Since you have never plugged the iPad into your computer's iTunes yet - you are syncing to a "new" computer so .... Yes you will lose the music if you sync it with iTunes before making this your syncing computer.
    But ..... You can transfer all of the iPad content into iTunes and that will make the iTunes library your new syncing library. Just follow all of the steps in this user tip and you will be OK. Then you will be able sync without losing anything.

  • Wireless keyboard not sync

    wireless keyboard not syncing, comes up located and then not found

    Try resetting your SMC and keep any other keyboards turned off or unplugged when you start the computer up, being sure also to have the new keyboard turned off during startup.
    Since no keyboard will be detected, the iMac will prompt you about pairing a keyboard. Once you see that prompt, turn the keyboard on, and it should walk you through the pairing process.
    To find out how to reset the SMC, follow http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964.
    Give it a try. Good luck, and keep us posted.

  • HT1212 after over an hour with two Apple support reps I still cannot restore my  Ipad that tells me "Ipad is disabled" I was directed to click install update which took over an hour but it didn't complete saying," ITUNES could not connect w/Ipad..hardwire

    How do I restore IPAD functioning after receiving a message stating "Ipad is disabled" Note. user and passcodes are verified as enabled. Also my mfgr serial number was supplied. Downloading latest updates per direction via my HP hardwired to Ipad, failed after an hour with a message "Itunes could not connect w/Ipad because it was locked with passcode!"
    thanks, Applesauce42 turning sour.

    Hello jaybearden,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like you are not able to restore the iOS device since you get an error 9. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

    Check your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006. Sometimes security software can prevent your device from communicating with either the Apple update server or with your device.

    New Galaxy 5s.  Trying to connect to a guest wireless that routes browser to a login screen.  The wireless will not connect (gives authentication error), so will not pull up browser window.  My previous Android did not have this problem (it would connect and immediately reroute to the login screeen).

    Would you please try manually set the DNS address on client NIC to the IP of your server, then try run the connector again?

    You may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the iPad and restore/resync your content to it.
    If you do it via a different computer that it's not normally synced to then (from here) :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.
