How do I know when the keyboard is done charging? The light is always red.

Initially I charged it for 4 hours. That's supposed to last for 2 weeks or longer, as I was informed; however I have to charge it regularly for at least 2 hours.

There is a power switch on the keyboard face above the delete key. Consult the instructions. If there isn't a cord for charging, then likely you have been shipped someone else's return. It utilizes a micro USB cord.

My red light went off after 3 min. of charging. I can't tell if it's charged or not...

The only time you need to plug it in is when it's charging. Other than that you should be good to go. I don't really know how long the keyboard lasts without a charge because I rarely use my tablet or the keyboard. Sorry.

I may not have exactly the same keyboard, but the green light on mine lights up briefly when the on/off button is depressed. It only stays on for about three seconds.

Hi Mack, there is a very small button that slides forward or backward on the right hand side of the keyboard next to the usb port for charging. If it is red it is in the off postion, on it is green.

Plug the cable into the keyboard and a USB port on your computer. Leave the keyboard off but your computer on. Had no problems with mine. Let it charge overnight.

Plug in the usb cable into the keyboard and inot a computer that is turned on. Wait for the light to change color or go off. If the keyboard is low on power, it has taken mine 4 hours to recharge..

I just plugged it into my iMac, and the red charging light is on, but no keystrokes are going through.

Mine works correctly as well, so you should contact customer service.BTW there is no charging involved with this keyboard.

Try using an identical charger to see if it will charge then. If it still doesn't take a charge u can assume it's the keyboard and not the cord. Maybe a 1 year manufacturer warranty...

Not very long and the keyboard does stay charged for a very long time. I've been using my keyboard for a few weeks without needing to recharge.

Make sure the power is off. A red light will come on while charging. I used the USB plug on my desk top in order to charge.

My keyboard is lit whenever my motherboard had power. You may need to contact the company for an rma for a bad keyboard.

It has a battery that needs to be charged. hen it is fully charged the light will be white on both the keyboard and tablet. I received few instructions with mine.

It was charged when it arrived. In fact, I have never put any effort into charging it. I just leave it with the solar panel facing up whenever I close it, and it has always been ready to use. It uses either the natural light or the light from a lamp to charge. I am very happy with this keyboard!
