Q: Wireless Keyboard not working with iPad2

I've already wasted way too much time on a Apple product that has changed my mind about the company. I jumped through all of the necessary hoops to engage my wireless keyboard with my iPad2 but the keyboard will not type a single word. It says it's connected but it's not working. I got it to type twice for about 5 seconds each time but that was it. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears. I hope there is a simple fix.

iPad 2, iOS 5.1

    Hi there

     

    I'm sorry if this may seem silly or not completely relevant to this category, but I'm having an issue with my Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard for iPad.

     

    I bought this bluetooth keyboard in Thailand at the beginning of this year which I don't think is a legit Apple manufactured product, but it worked smoothly for a while. I have an iPad with Retina Display (iPad 4).

     

    Nowadays I've been experiencing problems with it:

    - When I turn it on and connect it to my iPad, it works well for a couple of minutes and then it randomly doesn't respond and turns off by itself.

    - While it's operating, without me touching any of the buttons or keys, it suddenly goes out of the app or website that I'm busy on and it then goes into the Search Spotlight mode/display and then my keyboard either won't respond or goes a bit haywire.

    - The touch sensitivity of the keyboard, as well as the operating speed of it, is a bit delayed and often have to type certain buttons harder than the others which is utterly annoying. And I'm not a person who doesn't damage or abuse his things.

     

    What could be the possible reasons for this and how does one sort this out?
