Just got keyboard, paired easily w/Nexus 7 HD, KB types great as long as I do not put Nexus in the stand slot of the KB. When I do, it turns off? Help

I agree with Pete, I had this happen but if you flip the Nexus around (180 degrees), putting the on/off switch and volume switch facing in the downward direction it will not turn off. I hope that helps.

I believe you might have to return your keyboard. Sound as if its getting a mixed signal.

I had the same issue and I rotated it 180 degrees in the slot and it has worked fine. I hope it works for you.

You may be putting the power button side into the slot, try flipping it around. If that doesn't work, I'm not sure what to tell you. Good Luck!

You have to put the power/volume side in the slot - very illogical, but that's how it appears to work.

I got a keyboard case as well for mine and its regular USB, it doesn't work at all, got an adapter to put it on the micro USB space, still nothing. I use my old desktop wireless keyboard, and it works in the USB slot unless charger is hooked up, then it types like ten of one letter, or misses other letters.

Mine works perfectly, but I have to say the instructions for pairing were wrong. Don't recall what the problem was, but I resolved it fairly quick. The blue light on the keyboard comes on at the beginning when you turn the keyboard on, then quickly goes out. Make sure you've turned on Bluetooth in Settings (it then backlights on the drop down menu on the Home page. You can turn it on also on the drop down menu where the backlit icons are.).

I experienced the same issue from time. It sometimes worked when I use the brutal force to connect the keyboard and the tablet. After a while the tablet was damaged by that. The screen has a vertical black area above the connection port. My suggestion is not to use the keyboard at all. Just return it.

Not as far as I know. What device are you using it with (a PC, tablet, phone)? It works natively when I use it. You can try unplugging it and powering off device, then restart the device and then plug it back in, making sure not to press any buttons while doing this. Hopefully it won't act funky after this. I'll suggest the obvious and say that you can also try pressing the blue "FN" key on the bottom left to activate/deactivate the designated alternate key functions, then try pressing the space bar and see if that works.

I have a Nexus 7 and after getting a UTG cable, I was able to plug in the keyboard and it works perfectly! The tablet fits securely and looks good. You can't beat the price. Not sure how durable it ultimately will be, but so far so good and I expect it will last.The only negative is that the stylus is useless and does not register on the screen. I will have to find a replacement that works, but I'm not concerned because of how well the Nexus responds.

I use the Iconic Bluetooth keyboard tablet leather stand with my Nook HD+ ...I love it! It works great and is easy to install and type. No mouse..but doesn't need one.

I have a K810, which works very well with my Nexus 7 2nd gen tablet. It's like having a laptop using this keyboard. Great for checking things during meetings, or taking action items down.

Yes, it does work. I finally found 2 adapters that worked with my Nexus 7 AND the keyboard. The keyboard works quite well but I use a separate case for my tablet. I don't want the screen in direct contact with the keys when the keyboard case is closed.

As Robert said, it is a bluetooth keyboard, so that functionality will work with both. However, it is also supposed to function as a case, for which it is not suitable for the 2nd gen Nexus. I have purchased several different brands (same case/keyboard, just rebranded) from several different places. They are all still just for the 1st gen Nexus 7. I just received the supposed 2nd gen case from here and it is still the 1st gen case, they literally just taped a label over the original label that says 2nd gen. Unfortunately, just putting a new label on the cover doesn't change the case and it is too big to securely hold the 2nd gen Nexus 7. It will also not hold the 2nd gen Nexus 7 in portrait mode.

I have the 2013 Nexus and it didn't fit together, but I never use them hooked together. If you are used to a small keyboard it works fine. I like it.

This keyboard is very Windows 8 specific. It is Bluetooth and will function with just about any Bluetooth tablet. I think you would be better off with a more generic type keyboard for the Nexus.

Have not seen the photos to which you refer, but my keyboard has the wrist rest TOWARDS the user. There is a magnet in the wrist rest to shut the Nook HD+ down to sleep mode when the case is closed. The entire keyboard, of course, does pull out to be comfortable. Interesting caveat: If you flip the keyboard around backwards, the magnet will also shut down the Nook, same as folding forward. The work around is to flip the keyboard backwards (twist it 180degrees), wrist rest toward the 'screen', then fold back to use in simple tablet mode. Not perfect, but vastly reduces accidental sleep modes. You can also take the keyboard completely off, but I am afraid to misplace it or leave it behind.

That has nothing to do with the keyboard itself. That's the tablet in general, disable it under settings... I don't have mine in front of me right now but look under keyboard settings...

I used a wired external keyboard integrated into a case. I prefer to not use bluetooth unless absolutely necessary. Here is the case with keyboard I have purchased. It is working fine for me so far.

I have the original Nexus 7 32GB and it works perfectly fine work my keyboard. I tried plugging in a regular flash drive but for some reason it wouldn't show up. I would assume the keyboard would work with your tablet.
