If unable to pair the keyboard to the device, confirm that the device you’re trying to pair with is Bluetooth-capable. If so, restart the device and try pairing it with the keyboard again. Note: On a Windows computer, a new Bluetooth connection will sometimes require additional software updates–a process that may still be ongoing after a message appears indicating a successful completion. Wait at least 20 minutes after pairing to make sure all updates are completed before restarting the computer.
Confirm that the device is configured to accept Bluetooth connections (Windows) and supports an external keyboard (HID profile). Go to Bluetooth Devices > Open Settings and select the following: Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer Allow Bluetooth devices to connect to this computer Alert me when a Bluetooth device wants to connect.
