could you not use face time or Skype on your iPhone for somebody to assist you
with the keyboard?

Hi Janet
Okay, so this keyboard does not have a replaceable battery instead it is a
rechargeable lithium So try plugging the unit into a USB port using the
supplied cable for a couple of hours. When you flick the switch on the bottom
of the unit into the on position which is to the left, the keyboard should
light up as there are some small lights on the top of the keyboard. The
Bluetooth key is the letter C so you need to press the function key which is
second in from the left with a C together to initiate Bluetooth pairing. You
may need sighted assistance to help you with the stage as there will be a
blue light blinking when Bluetooth pairing mode is activated. Sorry I can’t
help further and this but I hope this guidance helps you with getting your
keyboard set up.

Hi Janet
Could you please send me the link from which you purchased this keyboard as
there are so many and I don’t know which one you got. Unfortunately
Bluetooth keyboards come up for discussion a lot on this list and I
recommend several different models depending on individual needs and
circumstances. Thank you.

Hi, I have tried your suggestion to bluetooth the keyboard but until
now nothing which is why I asked where the batteries are because it could
be that there are no batteries in it or you have to pull out a tab or
something. Janet

Hi Janet
Many of these keyboards are use a function key combination to begin the
pairing process. This can be function key and see but I think it is in this
case, the function key is on the far left hand side of the keyboard, second
key in. Press the function key and C together, then the keyboard should
show up in the list of devices in Bluetooth on your iPad. The switch which
you’re talking about is the power switch and to the right is off and to the
left is on when the keyboard is in the correct orientation with the in
front of you. Hope this helps.

perhaps Janet the switch is for on and off and there might be a tiny
button which you press for a Bluetooth.

yeh it is a bluetooth keyboard and I am trying to pare it with my iPad
but it doesn’t seem to want to find it. yes also it has a USB lead. one
of the reasons I like it is because it is quite stirdy. will keep
trying. it has a switch on the top behind where I think the battery or
batteries are. and yes I have tried to pare it with the switch in both
posisions. Janet

Hi Janet
Are we talking about a Bluetooth keyboard here? If we are, and you
purchased from the link on this list from Amazon the keyboard I was
discussing a few days ago, the keyboard is a fully rechargeable unit and
should have come with a micro USB cable in the packaging. The keyboard is
usually partially charged from the factory, so you should be able to
start using it straight away but with all these Devices, plugging the
keyboard into charge for an hour will probably not do you any harm and
will ensure you have some level of charge just in case the
battery is depleted. Take care and enjoy using your keyboard.
