Apple keyboard not pairing to iPad
My apple keyboard won’t connect to my iPad. I usually keep them connected all the time, but the iPad came apart from the keyboard and when I reconnect (magnets) the Bluetooth no longer works

Hello PaulasueBeck,
Thanks for that info and for choosing the Apple Support Communities. If we understand correctly, you are unable to get your Apple keyboard to work with your iPad anymore. To help with this, we recommend following these steps from Apple for this situation:
1. "Update your iPad to the latest version of iPadOS. Go to Settings and tap the Software Update Available notification. If you don't see a notification, go to General > Software Update to see if an update is available.
*If you're using Magic Keyboard, make sure that you have iPadOS 14.5 or later.
3. Remove any other iPad case or cover if you're using Magic Keyboard or Smart Keyboard Folio.
4. Connect your Magic Keyboard or Smart Keyboard / Smart Keyboard Folio.
5. If your keyboard doesn't immediately respond, restart your iPad.
6. If your keyboard is not connecting, or if you're experiencing issues unrelated to connecting, contact Apple Support."
And those steps are from here: If you can't connect your iPad to your Magic Keyboard, Smart Keyboard, or Smart Keyboard Folio - Apple Support
If you are still having issues, please contact Apple directly for further investigation of next steps: Get Support
Cheers!
