Hello, after updating to iPadOS 14.4.2 my Magic Keyboard for iPad is no longer connecting to my iPad Pro 12.9 inch (3rd Generation) at all. I've tried following other guides to get it to reconnect, but nothing I have tried has worked.
iPad Pro, iPadOS 14
After this problem, I called the Apple support, but none of the followed procedure worked.
So I went to an Apple store and they directly verified that the Magic Keyboard is not working. They also tried the keyboard by attaching it to a different iPad with a previous software (14.0) and it and was not recognized (accessory not supported).
Something happened during the last update (14.4.2) that made it unusable. In my case the Magic Keyboard will be replaced under warranty next week.
The new one is working like a charm.
Same here the keyboard is no more working. Since last upgrade....
Same here the keyboard is not working. Since last upgrade.
Still lockdown here, all stores closed. A softewareupdate would be great.
Same here. Apple ordered a new keyboard for me
Yup, exactly! I'm on my third one now - it's still in the box. I'm waiting for 14.5 to give it a chance. Crossing my fingers...
unfortunately, it does not.
I'm not expecting 14.5 to revive a bricked keyboard but to, at least, not break it when using it. Have you bricked a magic keyboard using 14.5 or it was already bricked?
this “Apple” fix does not work. It is a software bug after the new upgrade.
Same here ever since new update keyboard not working can’t understand why Apple is not solving this problem!
Just tried did not work.
Can we please get this fixed in a new update???
The update didn’t resolve my issue either. Today, the Apple Genius offered to sell me a new keyboard for $300. Fool me once, Apple…
Did anyone found a solution to it? Done all the steps and brought to an authorised service center who told me that the Magic Keyboard is spoiled. How can that be when it’s not even a year old?
Same issue here after the 14.7.1 update. Smart Keyboard works intermittently. It works great until I shut the iPad down then have to fiddle again. Contacts are clean, I have tried all of the resets, including the Settings / General / Reset / Reset Settings option. This is painful. Apple ??? Bueller ??????
