Will this keyboard work through the USB connection if no BT is available, or is USB for charging only?

Dear MotofordThis is bluetooth keyboard, the USB Cable just for charging, please get it.If your device without BT, you can conside to buy Rocketek a Bluetooth 4.0 dongle, that will be easy to connect with this keyboard and other bluetooth device.Thank you for your attention.B.rgdsRocketek

buy any BT keyboard that has a usb dongle and plug it in. You could buy the WiFi/Bt card (I have it for Wifi), but most BT keyboard bring the dongle (logitech). IR is bad, line of sight

S. Session,I had similar question and called iGo.com Tech Support, and the answer is no for now. They do not have a driver for PS3 for this BT keyboard. He said to keep checking back to their website as they continually update drivers. It could be a short or long wait.I have one on the way and I am not sure if I'll keep it as there are so many limitations and compatibility issues.One would assume BT is similar to USB where device can be 'universally' recognized -- NOT for BT I guess.Dissappointed!

What you see is the charging input that connects by USB like a phone charger. The keyboard does not have a USB port to plug a USB into. It's like the old blackberry charger port that uses USB cable to charge keyboard

Good question. No. The USB is for charging only. You must use Bluetooth for functionality.

You'll need a micro USB adaptor to connect to the cable that comes with this (keyboard) and I ordered mine here (on Amazon) and I got it for around 56 cents. (:

Sorry, I don't know technical details. Though I did research that some of the newer BT keyboards would not work with older Android software. I had the same problem. The keyboard was recognized, but it would not work. Good Luck

It does not work because the mini usb port on your tablet is slave port and does not supply power need for keyboard. You will need a bluetooth keyboard if you want to use a keyboard with that tablet.

USB is just for charging. Open Bluetooth on computer, press connect button on keyboard and they board should appear in the Bluetooth options, you then type a code into the keyboard and it connects.

There is a mini usb port on the keyboard, but it is only used for charging the battery of the bluetooth keyboard. You can't, for example, plug a USB mouse into the keyboard and have it function.

I get your point. It is wireless ONLY, not both. The USB cord is used for battery charging, but not as a wired keyboard. Eastore Service

Have you assured that you turned on the power selection (see right side of keyboard)Go to the settings and verify that not only is the bluetooth on but connected. Also, make sure that the key board is charged.

It does have a micro usb port for charging, but the keyboard is bluetooth so use a bluetooth mouse and it should connect to the same device your keyboard is connecting to.

No, this keyboard only attaches to bluetooth. But note you can buy an inexpensive "bluetooth dongle" if your PC is not BT-enabled, then pair your keyboard and in the end, it will be like a regular wireless keyboard.
