How do I get my keyboard to sync? It keeps telling me the passcode is wrong every time.

to tell the truth I struggled and gave up and one day it worked.....keep trying or at random...apologies I wish I had some words of wisdom for this but it was a fluke

I did not have that problem. Make sure you are using the Passcode supplied in the keyboard's pamphlet. And your device setting is Bluetooth "ON"? and "Paired" by highlighting the device name? I would just wait a bit longer even if it says it's wrong - I know my keyboard takes almost 2 minutes before it picks up my Galaxy3 Tab's Bluetooth signal. The blue light will blink that long , then go out. That's when you know the signal has synced and you can use the keyboard.

It didn't occur to me to try but I would have thought that most of the issues would lie with Android i.e. they would be independant of the keyboard itself. Does android have a key assigning function? I haven't seen one so you migth need an app. Sorry.

I purchased this keyboard a while ago and mine seems to be working fine . I don't believe there is a function for enabling that , but I'm not 100% sure . Most likely something is wrong .

I just paired the keyboard with my curve 8320, ive'd used 8300 zip file. Download file to your computer--install to computer ( i downloaded this file right on my desktop screen)--Connect your BB with your USB-- Open your Desktop Manager-- Application loader-- you should see like 62kb file on your application loader pertains to your keyboard-- check that file and load to your BB. You should see keyboard Icon on your BB after your load. NOW pairing, activate your keyboard by pressing Ctrl Fn(blue) Fn(green) all at the same time, you should see light turn on (greenlight) at the top of key Y. Click on your keyboard icon from your BB it will ask you for password i just used alt 0 alt 0 alt 0 alt 0 (0000)since normally most bluetooth hardware got a 0000 as default pass. (you can put any password you wanted) Your BB will start trying to connect to your keyboard when that happen (usually spontaneously) on your keyboard press Fn (blue color Fn) together with 0 (zero)press zero 4x release your hold to Fn and then press enter. That should pair your Bb together with your new foundBBkeyboard :) Here is the link http://www.mobilityelectronics.com/support/Drivers.asp?ManufacturerID=27&ModelID=505 Now all i got to figure out is how to close this keyboard :)

Hi Roseanne, The syncing instructions that came with my keyboard were written in very poor English and were basically useless. All I did was hook the cable up between the keyboard and a USB slot on my computer. The keyboard charged which was what I wanted but there was nothing on the computer that showed the keyboard was connected. Hope that helps.

I will assume it has batteries and is on...push little button by the battery compartment. Now look to your device, it should give you a password to enter on the keyboard. After that, you should be connected.

Try to reconnect. Even though it says paired, still needs to be connected. Make sure the keyboard is in the pairing mode when reconnecting.Make sure Hou are selecting the ext r real keyboard for inputing.

lol, your better off than me. I lost my key. But it seems to me I had the same problem, and it turned out to be I just had the have the open and close handle in a certain position for the key to work. Play with that sequence and hope it helps.

I have the same problem with it. It seems like if you remember to turn the keyboard off after using it, then on again before opening the text editing program of your choice, it tends to sync better. But, that's still not a fix because you have to actually remember to turn it off (which I don't). I sent them an email regarding this issue to see if they had any tips and tricks for it, but never got a response.

Thank you for following up with me. I actually got the keyboard to work properly. It was probably my lack of knowledge. So all is well with my keyboard and I love it. Thank you

Yes. Ive not found a program or app that the key board is not compatible with

I have had it tell me that I need a code also, but when I went through the steps and saw "Bluetooth Keyboard" in my settings already, I just chose that and it paired automatically. It bypassed the code altogether.

you might have to try again. It took me several tries to get the key fob in sync and working properly. take your time and do it carefully

Imnot sure what you mean I know inthe paring process a number pops up and you have to enter that number to allow the devices to connect. Do you have a bluetooth connect wizard? If you followw that you should be able to connect. That code is generated during the connect and pairing process. Other than that I know of no passwords required. I would just reboot and start from scratch usig the bluetooth w izard. The hiearchy is turn your Bluetooth on, turn your keyboard on, allow it to find your keyboard, select your keyboard, wait forit to connect. At this point a window should pop up with the necessary code. Type In the code and wait for a message you are connected. I had to do this several times but it did connect. I think the code is randomly generated as the code changes.let me knoww if this helped.(;0)

I had no issues syncing it on multiple devices. I ended up giving it away because it was just too small to type on. I bought it because I wanted a small easy to travel with keyboard, but the functionality just wasn't there after actually using it.

That's not happened to me Amee. I don't turn off the keyboard therefore it's always on, I'm assuming it's at rest as well as when the ipad air goes into sleep/hibernate mode. Once I activate it again, the keyboard automatically syncs. Perhaps you should try contacting the manufacturer or the place where you bought it. Sorry for your problem. Still, I would like to know what they say about your issue when they help you problem solve.

I do it all of the time! Especially when my keyboard quit syncing to my iPad. No fears, though, they sent me a new one!!
