What is the trick to getting the keyboard to pair with the ipad. No directions came. I turned both on and off. The blue lt. on the keybd. does not stay on. Help. How do I get it to work?

You have to turn on your bluetooth and press the button at the top of the keyboard so it will search for a signal.

The first time i just pushed the round button on the keyboarde and in settings in the iPad clicked connect...once it connects the first time it automatically connects after that, just have to tap on a any key a couple times and it picks back up.

Be careful with the on off button mine broke and the company still hasn't answered me

You have to hold the button down on the keyboard while the blue light is flashing. But make sure your Bluetooth is turned on on the IPAD. When it is paired you will see it show up on your IPAD and then click on the one that list the keyboard and it will start working.

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.

it is simple make sure that your bluetooth is turn on your ipad or tablet,and turn on the power on the keyboard. it should work then.

there is a small switch on the side of the keyboard, turn that to "on" then go to settings on your ipad and make sure Bluetooth is set to "on".. the two should then pair!

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.

You connect it as you would any blue tooth device. Make sure you have the Bluetooth setting on the "on" position on the iPad. It will seach for the new device (device must be on the "searchable" setting), then you can pair them up. The keyboard is great and does the job pretty good.

Hi Julee, I agree with the previous comments. You have to 'pair' the ipad and the keyboard together. Here are some instructions from apple. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4111

You should have gotten instructions. There is a cord to charge the keyboard... it's wireless but you have to enable it in your ipad settings. Make sure keyboard is charged and then slide the switch on the side until you see a light. When the program you are in requires a keyboard if the keyboard is set up right it will let you use it instead of the internal keyboard of the ipad. Hope this helps.

Well, when the device is paired, it should type normally when you use it instead of the screen keyboard. I just checked mine. Went into settings on the tablet. Made sure the switch was turned on to Bluetooth, the words Bluetooth keyboard were in a nice blue color and it says it paired. I went to a web page when I would type a response to a thread -- clicked on the response button with my finger and up pops the keyboard for the tablet. But I just used the Bluetooth keyboard instead. I would suggest you recheck you pairing -- you can disconnect and pair again.

Turn on the keyboard. There is a slider switch on the right hand side near the back. Go to the iPad Settings under Bluetooth and turn it on (this is a bluetooth keyboard). It should find the keyboard right away. Enjoy!

Yes, mine does as well even with the Bluetooth on the keyboard turned off. Since the BlueTooth is disabled on the keyboard and the iPad still starts up, although briefly, I think this is an iPad behavior issue. Googling the issue, I found that there is a setting on the iPad to enable/disable this behavior. On the iPad, go to Settings | General | iPad Cover Lock / Unlock. I like this behavior, so I have mine set to ON.FYI: I Googled QQ Tech (keyboard case manufacturer) and found a site with very little information. Support seems to be via email.

There isn't a connect button. It connects to your iPad via Bluetooth. So You'll want to turn the keyboard on via the tiny switch on the right side. Then go to Bluetooth in the settings and the iPad should locate the keyboard. If it doesn't connect easily you may want to charge the keyboard for a while. I didn't need to charge it to connect but I could of just got lucky. Hope that helps!

It appears the backlighting is disabled (no light even pressing the 'sun' symbol) until the keyboard is paired with the ipad although the keyboard has been turned on & before pairing the devices? Please confirm if this's defective? Thank you.

Oh. My iPad is fine. I bought the iPad way before this keyboard. And it is fine. It's the keyboard that won't work right. My iPad does have a code but its my very own personal one. It wasn't provided to me by the company

Mine works okay. There are occasions when it appears to be unresponsive - when that happens, unplug it from the iPad, hit the home button on the iPad, and then plug the keyboard back in. That resolves the problem.

When I got the keyboard case, I charged it first. Then I paired it with my tablet. Now, I enable Bluetooth on my tablet and then immediately switch on the keyboard. It has always connected when used this way. I am typing on the keyboard now.
