Try using a pencil rubber to clean the connections on both the iPad and the folio (might fluff up the cover a bit). You could also add a tiny dab of electrical lubricant. Mine also seems to be having a buffering issue (giving a delayed response), even after the clean - so perhaps that is unrelated (I have plenty of free disk space though)

You can carefully/gently clean the smart connector contacts on both the iPad and keyboard with a soft pencil eraser (a drafting-film eraser is ideal). Ensure that the contacts are dirt and dust free - and all debris from the eraser have been removed - before reconnecting the two. Do not use any kind of liquid electrical contact cleaner.
