Troubleshooting Apple Pencils:

Syncing is off, or perhaps it is no longer being seen as a trusted device. So, refer to the following...


Verify: the compatibility of your iPad and Apple Pencil


View: if your Apple Pencil won't pair with your iPad


Make Sure: that Bluetooth is enabled


Be Certain: there is power to your Apple Pencil


Successfully: pair and charge your 2nd Generation Apple Pencil

Unpair/Pad:

Unpair it with this other iPad that you have successfully paired it with, and then pair it with this one going you the issues.
