My iPad it's generation doesn't seem to show anything in the Bluetooth area. Can you help me get the keyboard connected to my iPad.

We have the I pad 1st generation, ie no camera, In settings there is a bluetooth option, and you just have to turn it on. It will then search for the device. My daughter did it, I really don't know how all these things work. But is does work. My son has a new I Pad and got a much nicer case and Keyboard from Logitech, but it is not compatible with the first gen. So this cheap seems to be working for the daughter. Anyway opening the settings app key, look down the list you will find bluetooth, touch it and follow the directions.

First make sure your iPad is updated with the latest software. In Settings, there should be an option for Bluetooth, located in the same area as Airplane Mode and Wi-Fi. If it does not show up there, check in General. If none of these offers you the Bluetooth option, check the Apple website for information on you iPad generation. Good luck!

I may not have responded correctly to your question. So let me try another answer. If you do have the Bluetooth option on your iPad and it is not syncing or showing the keyboard, make sure your keyboard is charged and on. Also, I'm not sure what the small button located along the top and in the middle of the keyboard does, but I pushed it the first time I tried syncing. Once my keyboard was charged and on, Bluetooth picked it up.

I think you have to actually turn off the bluetooth on the ipad in order to use the keyboard on the ipad. I'm not sure because I'm not using this keyboard as it doesn't work properly for me. It keeps repeating letters so I no longer use it.

I had the same problem. Fixed to using the following steps1. To to Bluetooth settings and forget the keyboard2. Turn off Bluetooth3. Shut down and restart the iPad4. Turn on Bluetooth and pair the keyboard.

yes, I can't get the keyboard to pair to my computer, iphone, or ipad via Bluetooth, nor to my computer via wired connection.

Press the button at the top of yor keyboard when you're in your Bluetooth settings. If you hold it down it should register with it!

um, im not very good with tech stuff, but when i got the case with the keyboard i turned it on. i clicked the button at the end of the right side of the very top row <...> i have no idea what it is, but i think its the wifi button. idk i always mess with it. the most important part is to go to ipad settings and go to bluetooth. i turn it off and then back on. it should search for devices. and if found it should say bluetooth wireless keyboard. then click connect, and it should tell you to imput some numbers.

Make sure your keyboard is charged, you can still connect while the keyboard is charging. For mines i just hold the connect button for about 5-10 sec and it connects. While on your blutooth setting it should pick up the signal and then you just touch your ipad and it should connect. Hope this helped.

You'll need to charge the keyboard first. Mine came with very little charge. Once you've done that, there's a little switch on the side that's a power switch. Flip it on and then press the connect button. The indicator light should start to flash and that's how you know it's ready to be paired. Then go to settings on your iPad and enable bluetooth if it's not already on. When you see "Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard" come up in the list of devices, click on it and wait for a little window to pop up. The window will ask you to enter the 4-digit code using the keyboard, then hit the enter button on the keyboard. It should then finish the pairing process on it's own. As far as I know it works with all iPads including first generations (though I'm not sure about the mini), so pairing shouldn't be a problem.

You need to make sure Bluetooth is turned ON on the iPad, then pair the keyboard using the iPad settings. Also make sure to press and hold the Bluetooth button on the keyboard to turn pairing mode on. After the keyboard is paired the first time, the iPad should connect in the future as long as Bluetooth is on and the keyboard is turned on.

Try going into the settings on your iPad, to bluetooth. Let the iPad detect the keyboard, then select it. That should do it.

You have to go into your ipad settings and make sure that you have the BLUE TOOTH turned on. It pairs through the Bluetooth system.

Turn it on and push the bluetooth button on the keypad. Then go to bluetooth on your iPad and turn it on and then select bluetooth keyboard and it will "connect" then it's ready to use

You need to have the keyboard on, press the bluetooth switch, and search for the wi-fi connection for your keyboard on your ipad. You will only need to "connect" the devices once for it to be found when you use it in the future.

All I can say is, when you turn the Bluetooth on on your ipad and the light is on on the keyboard, you have to wait in the settings for it to appear in Bluetooth and then click on it to connect

I have had no issues connecting, after initial setup the keyboard turns on automatically when in connect the side magnets of the iPad just past the row of function keys (a blue light above the delete key indicates the keyboard is active and connected)

Hi .... 1. charge the keyboard for 3-4 hours before use then on your iPad select "Settings > General >Bluetooth (make sure bluetooth is on). Turn on the keyboard, then press the button next to the word "ON". Tap the "bluetooth Keyboard" words shown on the screen of your iPad, then enter the 4 digit code shown on the screen on your keyboard and press enter... the keyboard should be paired and ready for use. My keyboard works great, I've not had to charge it since the day I started using it about 6 weeks ago and I use it every day and it has a nice power save feature as I often forget to turn it off.

Did you turn your blue tooth on the iPad? When you do, leave it up and then turn the keyboard on at the top right hand corner. You should see a blue light come on for a second on the top right. After that press the button at the top of the keyboard where the wifi emblem is watch to see if the keyboard name shows on the IPad. Then choose the keyboard name it should take a second but it should show up connected. If it doesn't try pushing that button at the top of the keyboard again. I has to figure out to turn the keyboard on when it didn't work for me:) unless there's something wrong it should work. Did you turn your blue tooth on the iPad?
