I have a venue 8 pro and when I have tried to pair the keyboard it asks for a code and I can't find a code anywhere. Can anyone help.

Turn on your Bluetooth in your Laptop, after that you will get a notification in your Laptop and there you will find the code or whatever!

I do not know what code they are looking for. When we paired the nook we just went to setting and it did it without a code. Sorry but I can not help you.

Rose:I don't know what a "venue 8 pro" is but when I first introduced my MoKO Bluetooth keyboard to my Nook HD+ the instructions said to go into Settings on the Nook and select Bluetooth keyboard as option under Bluetooth devices. Once I did that the "4 digit code" magically appeared on the screen which I entered on the (awful) screen keyboard. That did it, they "paired." The KB is still a little flakey and has to be prodded into action each session but it basically works. I hope this helped.

You can e-mail the company that sent the unit and they will send you instructions. They weren't allowed to send the instructions with the unit. Pairing is easy. You turn your tablet on, turn the keyboard on, make your tablet visible to all blue tooth units. It should find your keyboard. Make sure you push the button in the middle of the keyboard. You will be instructed to type a code on the keyboard. Type it and the unit should be paired.

Hopefully your Bluetooth is working properly, I had some issues with it after updating to Windows 8.1 (driver needed updating). Click the Bluetooth icon on the task bar, select "Add a Bluetooth Device". You should now be at a "Manage Bluetooth Devices" Metro style screen. Ensure the keyboard is powered on and hit the "Connect" button next to the power switch on the keyboard. You should then see it as an option to pair with the tablet. Click on pair, then type in the numbers you see on the screen and press enter. Hopefully that is all you need, but if your Bluetooth is wonky, get the updated drivers from the Intel website.

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.

The directions are a bit ambiguous. You go to Bluetooth on your Lattitude. Turn on the keyboard and hit the connection button. Highlight the keyboard when it appears under Bluetooth devices and it will give you a four digit number you type in then the keyboard will connect. If this does not work I would suspect an interface/programming problem and look elsewhere for help. I agree the keyboard comes partially charged and it took over an hour to reach full charge before I linked. It is a great folio and keyboard.

Make sure it's connected. Go to bluetooth settings and make sure it's on. You may have to hit the pair button on your keyboard. I've had this happen to me once before when the pairing was interrupted (no idea why, but it only happened once in 7 months of use so I'm not worried about it).

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

If your Dell Venue 8 Pro typically uses a bluetooth keyboard then this would probably be a good keyboard for you.

You need to install keyboard app to ipad. Google Kensington technical support and they will help. However, just to let you know, the installation did not work for me and ipad never recognized it. Good luck.

Good question. Have not tried to pair it to it. Just tried it and yes it does. I have been very impressed with this little keyboard

I just followed the directions. I turned on Bluetooth on my iPad. The turned the switch on the keyboard and it showed a blue light. When a number pops up enter it and it should work.

My wife had a problem but I didn't. I rebooted everything since I didn't know what she had done. I turned the keyboard on. Make sure the status light on the front is green. Then press the bluetooth button behind the power switch. Then the green light blinked. BUT, it still wasn't pairing so I removed the keyboard from the list in bluetooth settings forcing the ipad to find the keyboard again. The ipad found the keyboard and by touching the Folio 5 in settings, it connected. This should do it.

When I plugged mine in, I got a "set up your keyboard" screen which showed some things. I THINK there was a link or something there to get more info. If you go into devices and hardware, right-click on the picture of the keyboard and then go to Keyboard Settings, that will get you into the setup stuff. Just keep clicking on the categories and you should find what you want.

Under the box where the code usually appears, it says in small blue font "Or, try entering a passcode on it". Click on that and it gives you a new passcode to enter. I'm having trouble too pairing mine - it sees the keyboard, but entering anything on the keyboard seems not to be recognized, and it eventually tells me the keyboard quit waiting - try again. I'm wondering if I have incompatible Bluetooth, as I've paired a different (Anker) keyboard and a Bluetooth mouse to the ME400C in the past with no problems. About to send this new keyboard & case back!

It is with mine. I tried two other keyboards first - one worked but was the wrong size. The other advertised it would work and didn't. You do have to have it completely charged and sometimes it takes a while to pair it. But it works.

I wasn't able to get my keyboard to pair either. I returned that piece of jump to Amazon promptly.

I recently received the bluetooth keyboard and found pairing very easy per the instructions included with the keyboard. It says: 1. Turn on the keyboard (switch on the right side.) 2. Press the "Link" button and the bluetooth light with begin flashing. 3. Turn on your tablet. 4. In Settings-&gt;Wireless networks-&gt;Bluetooth settings select "Find nearby devices" or "Scan for devices". 5. When the bluetooth keyboard is found, click on it to pair. The pass code will be displayed on the screen. Enter it from the keyboard then hit enter. You should get a "successful" response.
