Would Microsoft's surface keyboard work with the ipad air ?

Hi, I know that this might be deemed as stupid but I am just curious: Would Microsoft's surface keyboard work with the ipad air ?
Is the surface keyboard bluetooth enabled ? If so, then it should work, right?

No, it would not. The Surface is optimized and uses a different operating system than iOS7.
I'm pretty sure that both the Surface and iPad Air can use Bluetooth; but Bluetooth peripherals might or might not be recognized.

  • 2 Problems with the Ipad Air...midi keyboard and usb microphone

    IN SHORT:
    2 Problems with the Ipad Air...what midi keyboard will connect to the lightning camera connector and what microphone as well?  There seems to be issues with the ipad air not being able to power them.  Has anyone got any devices to work yet?
    IN DEPTH:
    I have a yeti microphone that when I plug in it says its using too much power.  A little samsung go mic I have plugs in find and works but isnt quite what im looking for.  My midi keyboard is not reading...its probably 15yrs old (didnt expect it to work).  I have ordered a usb powered keyboard but im now nervous it may not work if it requires too much power.  Has anyone had any success with a particular model of keybaord?  I saw a youtube video of the CME Xkey in which it was plugged into an ipad that uses the lightning jack, but was unsure if it was the air or a different model.
    Any help is appreciated on this...I love my ipad air and hoping to make it my fully functional music recording device.

    hey mate
    Yes what I ended up doing is buying a powered usb hub.  They are about 10 dollars or so on amazon.com.   There are tons to choose from.  I use a yeti micrphone now with no issues and a midi keyboard.  You will need the lightning usb adapter too.  You plug the lightning adapter into the ipad and the hub into the adapter then plug all your accessories into the powered hub.  So it works well you just gotta buy an extra piece of equipment.

  • Wifi is not available where I come from. I have broadband connection where data transmission is through cell sites then to USB modem connected to a computer. The modem draws power from the computer. Will this setup work with the ipad?

    iPad requires Wifi (or 3G /LTE) to connect to the Internet. You cannot connect a USB modem to the iPad.
    You can create your own WiFi hotspot through your computer for your iPad to connect to, if your computer supports this functionality. All Wifi Macs and many Wifi PCs do. Check your computer manual for how to do it.

  • Small CF card reader that works with the iPad Camera Kit?

    I'm looking for a small (not much bigger than a CF card) CF Card reader that works with the iPad Camera kit (USB piece) - Anyone know of one?
    All the ones I see people suggesting are big and bulky (made for a desktop). I know there are many smaller ones, but that the iPad camera kit doesn't work with everyone. Anyone know one that works with it?

    My set up, quite compact for travel, this is a no brand version but I have seen other ones branded Integra or something similar.

  • HT4101 Does the Ipad camera connection  kit work with the Ipad 4 and if not is there an adapter?

    Does the IPad camera connection kit work with the Ipad 4 and /or is the an adapter ?

    You want the newer Lightning to USB Camera Adaptor.

    The old Camera Connection Kit also works and I use it on my iPad 4, however, to use this your will need the Lightning to 30 pin adaptor.

    hey do you know if the wireless mouse pad works with the ipad 2?

    There is no mouse or cursor used with iOS devices.

  • HT4101 Is the Panasonic lumix tz20 compatible with the iPad air lightning cable?

    Is the Panasonic lumix compatible with the iPad air lightning to USB camera adaptor?

    No reason to think its not. The USB adapter is universal. So unless there is something fundamentally different about the Lumix USB interface, or thewy way it stores images on its memory card it should work.

  • Is there ANY wireless mouse that will work with the iPad 2 and Apple's Wireless Keyboard?

    I have the iPad 2 and Apple's Wireless Keyboard and would like to purchase a wireless mouse that will accommodate my Apple products. I do understand that Apple's Magic Mouse is not compatible with the iPad 2, but would like to hear if there is any possibility that i could use a wireless mouse with my iPad.
      Thanks :)

    You don't have to purchase a mouse. You already have one, it's wireless and the only one that will work on an iPad.

  • Does the 1st generation apple wireless keyboard work with an iPad?

    Hi
    I want to get a keyboard for my iPad but I don't know if this one works with my iPad 2. Can someone help please??!!

    Should work just fine, I have a 1G Apple wireless keyboard and it connected just fine to my iPad 3.
    Any reason why you want to use a first generation Apple keyboard? They require 3 AA batteries and can drain them fairly fast. The second and present wireless keyboard only needs 2 AA's and the batteries last much longer. I use rechargeable batteries in my 2G keyboard as well and since my charger only charges batteries in pairs makes the 1G limited to alkaline batteries.

  • Sony cyber shot, getting the memory due to work with the iPad camera kit

    Has anyone been able to find this SD card / memory stick adapter? I checked with Amazon and can not locate.
    My issue is Im leaving for England on Saturday so I have a week to try to find something that will allow my Sony DSC-HX5V 10.2MP CMOS Digital Camera with 10x Wide Angle Zoom with Optical Steady Shot Image Stabilization and 3.0 inch LCD that uses a memory stick pro due to work with my camera connection kit. I have a new samsung digital camera that has SD card which I can use that with the camera connection kit BUT when I plug into USB the camera will not work\
    I am basically afraid to purchase this camera and it does not work through USB or the card reader, even if it does work through the USB interface which would be awesome I would still like for it to work with the card reader in case I misplace the capable etc.
    Any help is appreciated. Last question also is the camera I am getting is the only digital camera besides the higher end video cameras that have GPS of which I own one but its a lot bulkier to carry which is why I am buying this one. Does anyone have any clue if the GPS data will transfer? I know Apple iPhoto has GPS places recognition, I just dont know if Sony's propierty nature will make it uncompatible b/c they come with a software program to view the gps pictures.

    Did you purchase the Sony DSC-HX5V? I am looking at buying that same camera because of the GPS function, as well as the fact that it can take the SD card as well as the Sony memory stick.
    I am a bit confused by your question though? Are you saying that when you use the SD card, and you connect the camera to your macbook, the camera doesn't work?
    As for the GPS stuff, I am hoping you have found an answer to this quesion, as it will be key in determining whether or not I buy the Sony or instead the Panasonic Lumix ZS7, which also has GPS tagging (I hear the sony has more accurate data).

  • Question: Zagg Universal keyboard with the iPad Air

    Specifically ----  When I load a spreadsheet I cannot freely move around from cell to cell locations using the universal keyboard to accomplish an input or edit data in a cell.  I want to use the universal keyboard and not the ipad keyboard to accomplish these entries.  Is this possible to do?  How?

  • I want to stream itunes movies I've bought on my ipad air to my lg smart tv.  From the 'Home' screen of the lg, there is no itunes app shown that would somehow let me share info with my ipad air.  Has anyone the answer.  Am I missing something here?

    I have an lg smart TV.  I also just bought an apple ipad air,Wi-Fi Cellular 16GM I've signed up the air to itunes and just purchased a movie on the ipad air.  I was able to stream the movie on my air and my pc, which is of course wirelessly connected to my smart TV.  I've searched the 'Home' screen of the lg to find a way to also stream that movie on the lg.  Am I somehow just not reading right and missing the point, or is what I'm trying to do not possible?

    I have raised this issue with apple support this week too after my Facetime and iMessage stopped working on Saturday.
    Been very interesting to read the ever increasing number of comments and issues being raised on this one (more than 500 views and dozens of replies so far).
    My post is here:
    imessage and Facetime sign in activation error iPad ios8.1.2
    What is especially interesting about your post is that you had your iPad Air replaced in November 2014 in the UK. I bought my iPad Air originally in October 2014, and had to have it replaced in an Apple Store in Bristol in November after the original stopped charging. This does make me wonder if there is a batch of faulty iPads? Mmm...
    I have raised a fully escalated support case with Apple on this, and their latest response is that a 'patch' or fix is being investigated by their engineers and to wait a week or so at which point they might be releasing it to affected users - or even across every users.
    I wish there was a way to get this to Apple's attention and the wider media as well, but I don't know how best to do that.
    I guess the best thing we can do is keep hassling Apple for a response and raising support cases

  • What is the best all in one printer that works with the iPad

    The best all-in-one-printer to use with the ipad mini

    Any that advertise Airprint compability will work for printing. Note that you can't use the scanning or faxing features of an all-in-one with an iPad.
