Windows 11 has an easier way to sync the Apple Wireless Keyboard. While I was fixing my Razer Blackwidow keyboard, I want to keep my PC operating, so I tried to connect the Apple Wireless Keyboard to my Windows 10 PC. 28, 2017.Last Updated: Octo| Reading Time: 3 minutes Note: This article was originally published on Feb. When it asks if you're sure you want to disconnect the device, click "Yes." To disconnect the keyboard, click on your keyboard's name and click the "Remove device" button that pops up. If you want to be sure, follow the same steps above to get to the Bluetooth settings pane and under "Magic Keyboard" or "Apple Wireless Keyboard" it should say "Connected." To test the keyboard, simply click in the search bar and try to enter text. Since the Magic Keyboard obviously doesn't have a screen, you can just click "Yes."At this point you should be connected. Windows 10 seems to read the Magic Keyboard as a separate device, complete with a screen, so it will present a code in the window and the text "Compare the passcodes," under the assumption that it wants you to compare displayed text on another screen. However, if you have a newer Apple Magic Keyboard, there is some confusing behavior that may occur. If you have the older Wireless Keyboard, simply type the code on the screen and hit the Enter/Return key on your Apple keyboard. This is when the setup for the two types of Apple wireless keyboards differs. You will then see a popup window that offers a passcode.
Click the option that says either "Magic Keyboard" or "Apple Wireless Keyboard," depending on which model you have, and click the grey button that says "Pair." Once that slider is in the "On" position, there should be some text that reads "Your PC is searching for and can be discovered by Bluetooth devices." Under that text, you'll see a list of Bluetooth devices that are available for pairing. Towards the middle of the screen it will say "Manage Bluetooth devices." Under that header, make sure that the slider under "Bluetooth" is turned to "On" and is displaying in blue. Once you're in the "Devices" pane, you'll want to click the "Bluetooth" option on the left-hand side of the screen. It may say "Bluetooth, printers, mouse" underneath it. Click on the Start button (the Windows icon in the bottom left of the desktop) and then click "Settings."įrom here, you should be looking at the standard settings pane, where you can access network settings, account information, security and privacy settings, and more. You'll then need to turn on Bluetooth on your Windows 10 machine. Note: Both of Apple's wireless keyboards are configurable to work with Windows 10, but require slightly different steps toward the end.
