Apple Pencil failing connection with new iPad air
I have an Apple Pencil (1st gen) that I’ve been using with an older iPad Pro. It works fine with the iPad Pro; shows up as a device when plugged In to lightning port, pairing dialog pops up, links through bluetooth, works great.
All posts I have found have suggested that the pencil battery is damaged, but then why would it work fine with the iPad Pro? Battery life on pencil seems to behave fine when used with the iPad Pro.
When plugged into the new iPad Air, the pencil doesn’t show up as a physical device when plugged into the lightning port, which explains why it doesn’t pop up the painting dialog.
When plugged into the iPad Pro, the battery monitor shows it is 75% charged.
