Helo everybody I wrote to the group some time ago about this, but I wanted to expound a little more because of something I’ve only just discovered.
In the Logitech brochures and documentation, it states that the keyboard comes supplied with a Logitech Unified Receiver, just as the older keyboards did, but also can be paired with up to 3 Bluetooth® 4.0+ devices, switchable between the four devices in total. Well, The Box” with the keyboard. Since I did not see the receiver in the box with my keyboard, I presumed that it was missing. It didn’t really worry me all that much, although it would have been nice to have. This keyboard is powered by 2 AA batteries, housed in the bottom of the device. You access the device by sliding a small rectangular lid away from the integrated tablet stand, then it just comes away from the keyboard. I just had occasion to replace the batteries, as the default pair died on me. I always keep a small stock of batteries of various common types, so I had the replacement batteries available. OK, so I removed the battery lid, then removed the old batteries, and discarded them. However, as I went to insert the replacement, what do I find? Plugged into the keyboard’s battery compartment, just next to the batteries, I discovered the Unified Receiver I had presumed was missing. OK, great! This will help me no end. I can now use the same keyboard on 4 devices, including my iMac. Although not ideal for Apple’s products, the user documentation explicitly says that they are supported. So now, I can use my current Apple Bluetooth® keyboard upstairs, and just have the one keyboard down here. Wonderful, that gives me a numeric keypad as well! ======================================== My compliments and kindest regards Gordon Smith: <gor...@mac-access.net> Accessibility & Information Technology Support Specialist..
