Hello CinGutie,
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities. We've reviewed your question and it looks like you’re running into an issue with your Magic Keyboard and your iPad. It's understandable that you'd want this resolved, so allow us to assist with that. Please start by taking a look here: Set up and use Magic Keyboard for iPad. Make sure everything is configured correctly.
Next, we advise taking the following steps, which may help with this unexpected behavior: restart your iPad, make sure it is up to date and close the app you are trying to scroll in and reopen it. Also, unpairing and re-pairing your keyboard and iPad may help as well.
- Restart your iPad
- Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
- Quit and reopen an app on iPad
- Pair Magic Keyboard with iPad
Just to make sure you are aware, iPadOS doesn't support scrolling or other gestures with Apple Magic Mouse (1st generation) or Magic Trackpad (1st generation). If you have a later generation, this should be working as expected.
If you have follow-up questions, please let us know. We're here for you. Have a fantastic day!
