IPad 10th Gen Not Pairing with Apple Pencil 1st Gen Have the brand new 10th gen iPad and an Apple Pencil 1st gen, the Apple Lightning adapter that came with it and the Apple Lightning to USB-c cable… it didn’t pair. I spent an hour with an Apple tech who did everything I had already done, even tried a brand new out-of-the-box Pencil 1st gen, still didn’t pair. So, I returned to the retailer where their tech admitted that there was an ongoing issue… I asked for a return/exchange to which they agreed but said “All I can tell you is that it’s supposed to pair according to Apple”. Well, here I am with the exchange and still no pairing. There’s clearly a problem they need to fix.

Apple pencil lines start with a dot I just bought an M2 iPad Pro and a new Apple Pencil as well. When I'm drawing or writing most lines start with a noticeable dot and this happens in all drawing apps. I tried turning off Zoom and Double Tap, updating iOS, resetting, un-pairing and pairing the pencil, making sure no static electricity is interfering and a few other things, but nothing has helped so far.
