My keyboard came with a USB cord, I connected to my Samsung brick and laptop for charging but neither way works. Help please?

Using the cord with a standard outlet is the best way to charge it. Make sure you have it turned on while you're charging it as well.

I charge my keyboard to the electrical outlet as you would your tablet or cell phone. The orange light will let you know it's charging and turn off when it's fully charged.

Hi Ron, The first thing I would do is make sure the keyboard is fully charged. If the red light is on then you need to recharge the keyboard. If the light is blue (charged) I would make sure the bluetooth feature is enabled. You would do that by checking your settings. Once those two things are working properly you should be able to use it again if it worked before. Good luck with that!

If you connect the keyboard by Bluetooth everything should be active. Charge it then try to connect to it by Bluetooth, if that still does not work then you have a defective unit. It happens.

if plugging it into a different usb port doesnt work then you got a defective keyboard. ive had mine for a year and no problems

look carefully on the side of the keyboard (edge) . there is a mini-usb port that can be used to charge it. It charges in pretty much less than an hour.

Make sure the bluetooth switch is turned on and you see the blue light. If you don't see the blue light, then you probably need to charge the keyboard.

It comes with a micro USB cord that you use to plug the keyboard into the standard USB port of your laptop (or into a USB compliant charger) to charge the keyboard. It does not come with a charger.

let the keyboard charged using the USB cable. 1- turn it on - 3 press for about 10 sec. until flashing - 4- from computer search for BT device - 5 connect it. I will work

Keyboard should be charged. Turn it off and on, It will start pairing. I think it goes to power save mode if not being used.so turning off and on again will make this work.Thanks

The charging cable should have come in the box under a cardboard, rectangular slot next to where the keyboard was held. If the slot was empty when you rec'd the keyboard, you should return the product to Amazon for one that is complete. It will be an even exchange, but you will have to pay for shipping.

There should be a connector for your laptop. Else you may try the specific connector separately. The j or k connector sent with the charger should work.

any cords that came with the one I ordered where I guess the ones needed otherwise they would not have been with it. But same here the keyboard would not come one and I tried changing cords from something else but nothing happened.

The usb cable that comes with the keyboard plugs into the keyboard and your usb samsung tablet charger....plug into the wall outlet.....you cannot charge both (the tablet and keyboard) at the same time (in the wall outlet) unless you have an extra usb charger....go to settings turn your bluetooth on....push the link button that is on the keyboard (upper right hand corner)....give it a few seconds....should be good to go.....note : i have been pleased with the battery/charge life with this keyboard.....i use it with my samsung galaxy tab 2 10.1 model GT-P5113

Key board doesn't charge itself when connected, make sure you use the USB cable that came with the unit to charge the keyboard.

To charge the keyboard, place the usb port in your computer and the other port into your keyboard. When charged, the keyoard will connect wirelessly to you tablet.

The plug on your keyboard is most probably a Type A USB male. To plug the keyboard into your tablet, you'd need an adapter cable. Type A USB female cable with the other end a Micro USB male plug. Check your tablet. It's also called an OTG (on the go) cable. You can find them at Ebay and Amazon for very cheap, usually with free shipping, if you look around a bit.

Samsung (and other suppliers) make an adapter (dongle) that will plug into the tablet directly or the connector on the side of the keyboard and provide a USB port. I have the one from Samsung and it works perfectly for connecting flash drives and other devices.
