Q: ipad won't recognize wireless keyboard
I'm trying to connect my wireless Apple keyboard (that came with my iMac) to my iPad 3 via bluetooth. When I turn on bluetooth on both the iMac and the iPad:
the iPad recognizes the iMac
the iMac recognizes the iPad and the wireless keyboard
the iPad does not recognize the wireless keyboard.
Any idea what's going on?
iPad, iOS 8.1.3

the keyboard can only connect to 1 device if it connects to the mac (mine likes to do that) it can not be paired to any other device while it's connected
read here about putting the keyboard in pairing mode when it's not connected to the mac
