Wireless keyboard: using scroll and Cmd keys with iPad?

Excited to set up my Origami case and pair my Apple wireless keyboard with my iPad 1.
Surprised to find that while I can type, all other keys don't work - specifically Cmd-L/Cmd-R as well as the scrolling keys.
Is this a known bug or limitation? Is there a workaround? Needing to touch the screen for every movement isn't very usable.
I've rebooted the iPad. Google turns up many discussions, but no resolution, at least that I've found.
Thanks.

  • Wireless keyboard lost command and 0 - keys funktion

    Hi all,
    after quite some time of working with no problems at all my wireless keyboard lost the command - keys and the zero. There is no reaktion when I touch them. After a restart they work for some minutes and then they are gone again. What can that be. Working on a MacBookPro with 1.6.8.
    Thanks in advance for any tips and hints. I don´t think it is something with the keyboard hardware-wise because both command keys got lost simultaniously.
    Best regards - Christoph

  • I HAVE A MAC G5 WITH V10.4 TIGER OS, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LETTER "N" ONLY WHEN I USE CAPS AND SHIFT KEYS DOSE IT TYPE THE LETTER "N"SE

    HAVE A MAC G5 WITH V10.4 TIGER OS, I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE LETTER "N" ONLY WHEN I USE CAPS AND SHIFT KEYS DOSE IT TYPE THE LETTER "N". I HAVE CONNECTED A NEW KEYBOARD BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?

    You might look at "Keyboard Shortcuts" in the Keyboard and Mouse preference pane and see if somehow the lower case n has been inadvertently assigned to something.
    Probably the best solution would be to click the "Restore Defaults" button.

  • Flash CC won't let me switch between open documents using command and tilde key ( ~ )

    In all previous versions of Flash, and most other Adobe software, you could change the active document using command and tilde key ( ~ ) on a Mac. However Flash CC won't let me do this. Is there a bug, or something I need to set up to get it to work? Or is this possibly just expected behavior in the new version of Flash?

    I'm on a 2012 desktop with OS X 10.8.4 using a bluetooth keyboard. Cmd + ~ works with all other Adobe programs I have installed including Flash CS5.5.

  • Rapoo Wireless keyboard E-6300 won't pair with iPhone 3GS

    As the title says: Rapoo Wireless keyboard E-6300 won't pair with iPhone 3GS.

    my iphone 4 been paired with both a sandberg mini bluetooth keyboard and an imac keyboard key <pun>
    is that I have to make sure it only paired with 1 device at the time or it will not work
    but since it can pair with the appletv then I guess it's not that

  • Ipad doesn't recognise wireless keyboard apart from the function keys this has only just occurred . Previously no issue at all

    Ipad 2 doesn't recognise wireless keyboard apart from the function keys this has only just occurred . Previously no issue at all.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

  • Wireless keyboard keeps disconnecting and reconnecting

    My Wireless Keyboard keeps disconnecting and reconnecting and typing by it self!! any ideas?

    Hi,
    Yes believe it or not my problem was caused by the keyboard being too close to the iMac display, the bluetooth was infering with the other radio signals coming from the antenna, it needs to be at least 1ft away from the display (30cm) to prevent this (this won't help those of you with small computer tables/desks)
    Hope this works for you....

    Snow Leopard is a Mac OS X version. You say that it's the version you have in your Mac (10.6.8). Do a back up of your files, format the hard drive (using Disk Utility) and reinstall again

    Hi Grace Be,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!
    The articles below may be able to help you with this.  I've summarized some of the key points below for you.  Click on the links to see more details and screenshots.
    Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    Disconnect, test peripheral devices and network cables
    Note: "Peripheral devices" refers to external devices other than what came with your Mac, such as hard drives, printers, or hubs that you connect via a USB or FireWire cable.
    Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
    Disconnect all peripheral devices such as external hard drives or printers (leave only the display, a keyboard, and mouse connected).
    Disconnect any Ethernet cables.
    Start up your Mac.
    If you can start up this way, one or more of your peripheral devices (or installed software related to the device) is probably causing the gray screen issue. Connect one device, then restart your Mac to test for the issue. Repeat the process until you locate the device at issue. Check with the manufacturer of the device for support or possible software driver or firmware updates that may be available for the device. Try a different cable with the device if possible (such as a different USB or FireWire cable).
    If you are using a desktop Mac with a third-party keyboard and/or mouse device, and the issue still occurs, try starting up with an Apple keyboard and mouse connected instead. Try starting with no keyboard and mouse connected, then connect them after start up. Also, try a different USB port on your Mac.
    If the gray screen issue persists with no devices connected, go to the next section (with the peripherals still disconnected).
    Perform a Safe Boot
    Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
    Start your Mac, then immediately hold the Shift key. This performs a Safe Boot. Advanced tip: If you want to see the status of a Safe Boot as it progresses, you can hold Shift-Command-V during start up (instead of just Shift).
    Note: A Safe Boot takes longer than a typical start up because it includes a disk check and other operations.
    If your Mac starts up as expected, immediately try restarting.
    If the Safe Boot does not work, or the restart after a successful Safe Boot does not work, go to the next section.
    Reset the NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
    Reset the NVRAM / PRAM.
    I hope this information helps ....
    Have a great day!
    - Judy

  • Shift and CMD keys not functioning with other keys

    System Specs:
    15-inch, Early 2011
    Processor  2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
    Memory  16 GB 1333 MHz DDR3

    Hello,
    My issue is with the keybaord of my Macbook Pro. Just yesterday I noticed the following problems with my keyboard.
    Error Issue:
    Right Shift key+D
    Right Shift key+C
    Right Shift key+E
    Left CMD+C
    Are all not functioning. I don't know what happened, I ran the keyboard viewer and tested all these keys out, the weird thing is that I can use the alternate keys on right and left, like shift and CMD.
    Please help your urgent feedback is appreciated.

    I suggest trying the following (check after each step):
    1) Reboot
    2) Reset PRAM using this procedure: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    3) Reset the SMC: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
    4) check in a different user space (maybe it's a preferences problem)
    5) take to Apple store

  • Wireless Keyboard's left and right shift keys don't like some keys...

    Hello everyone!
    I recently bought a second hand 2009 Apple Wireless Keyboard to use with my iPad 32GB Wi-Fi.
    When pressed by themselves, the keys all individually work - I've tested them all using my MacBook's Keyboard and Character Viewer. The problem is when I use either shift keys with the following keys:
    123456789
    qwertyuio
    Now, the odd thing is, the left shift key won't wok with either of those lines but the right shift key will work with the letters but not the numbers.
    Using sticky keys on my MacBook, I can get every single one of the numbers to give out their character (!@£ etc.) with the left and right shift keys. I've not got Mouse Keys turned on either (and I don't think there's an option to enable it on the iPad)
    Also, the Shift keys work perfectly fine with all of the other keys on the keyboard so they aren't worn out.
    Any ideas what could be making my keyboard this way..? Or should I send it back (if I can...)?
    Thank you for your time!

    ok so i've made a bit of progress on my own...
    i've found the on-screen keyboard viewer (silly me, i was looking under "keyboard" in system preferences...) and this flashes with each key i press except the problematic left and right cursor keys.
    moreover, if i click the left and right cursor keys on the on-screen keyboard, they behave as they should, moving my cursor left and right.
    this is starting to look like a hardware fault but i'd love to be able to test outside of the OSX GUI to be really sure. is there any way i can do that. not sure i want to get the screwdriver out just yet...
