RE: Verbatim keyboard Batteries
Reggie, Try this and let me know if it helps. Open the keyboard and place it flat in front of you. Locate the on/off switch that you apparently have identified; it is on the left side of the keyboard to the left of the second row of keys from the bottom. Continue left from that switch and you will feel a round edge raising a bit up from the keyboard itself. This is where the batteries are. Now, touch the top of that edge with your left thumb and move your thumb along the edge, away from you. As you get close to the end farthest from you you will find a rougher feeling spot. This is labeled as an arrow. Apply a little bit of pressure with your thumb on that arrow and slide the top off as you continue to push away from you. You will hear and feel a click; that loosens the top of the case. The easiest way to get that loosened top off is to lift up the left side of the keyboard. The little top will fall off into your hand which you have, it is hoped, kept close to the the edge. If this doesn't make sense let me know and you can call me and I'll walk you through it. It's one of those things that once figured out is incredibly simple. Having someone sighted to point out where the arrow was helped me a lot.

RE: Verbatim keyboard Batteries
Thanks Sandy. Got the batteries in. How do the numbers run? I tried pairing and so did hubby, but it just keeps telling us it cannot connect. I see the keyboard on iPhone but when I try and put the numbers in, I must not be hitting the correct ones? Hubby tried looking at the keyboard chart with Optacon, but we both have put in correct numbers by what he looked at and still it will not pair. Are these batteries readily changed or as with iPhone I need to send it in or take it to a Radio Shack? Thanks for being patient. I need this as I am heading out of town tomorrow so need it to keep up on lists. Thanks.

Re: Verbatim keyboard Batteries
Just so you know, the number keys are not right at the beginning of the row. The number one key is the thrird one in from the left.

RE: Verbatim keyboard Batteries
No, battery changing is standard; you can easily do it When you pair. are you pushing in on the little button, I think it maybe called Reset? Do you know what I mean?It's a recessed button that needs a stylus or something like one. It is above the on off switch. .
