My cursor disappeared to so I came here and read these steps. Also, my trackpad did not seem to be working either for scrolling, etc.

I solved the issue by taking these steps:


  1. reboot iPad
  2. if connected to power, disconnect from magic keyboard.
  3. Detach iPad
  4. Close Magic Keyboard (this sort of turns it off)
  5. Open, reattach iPad
  6. VIOLA!


I did steps 4 and 6 and it came back. Yes, Viola is not a real step!
