Hi. Tonight I went to a local bar where trivia is played every Wednesday evening. I was using my iPad 13 Pro to text in our team's answers. Like last week, the team I was on finished last, but we had fun. I then decided to close the iPad in its Magic Keyboard. It acted weird, and every time I closed it, it was looking for my unlock code. I figured that something may have gotten into the keyboard, so I took the iPad out and wiped everything with a very slightly damp cloth. It seems to work after that, so I put it away. When I got home, I decided to do a double check of things. I opened it, and got absolutely no response from it. I called up Apple, and they thought the battery was completely discharged, so I plugged it in. There was still no sound from it. Apple scheduled a call back for me, and that should happen any minute. Just for fun, I connected it to a USB C cable that I charge my Tribid Max speaker, and again there was no response. I took the iPad out of the Magic Keyboard in case something was wrong there. Just for fun, I put it in the keyboard case. That's when I noticed something. I basically have no useable vision, but I still can see sources of light. I noticed the keyboard briefly lit up and then went dark. I thought perhaps Voiceover did its lower the volume, so I tried increasing it. I had no luck there. I tried using Siri to turn on Voiceover, and heard nothing. Now, to make sure nobody at the bar could read the texts I sent, I had screen curtain on. I did the gesture to turn it off, and the screen lit up. I knew Voiceover was working, but for some unknown reason I couldn't hear it. That's when I thought somehow the Bluetooth headphones were on. I was sure I turned them off, but it's hard to tell in a noisy bar. I put on the sleep headphones, and hit the power button on them. The nice voice reported power was off, so I tried to do something on the iPad. What do you know? Voiceover was speaking loud and clear. I'm very thankful I have enough vision to observe light sources, and by using that I figured out what was up.
All is well, and I'll report what I learned when I get the call from Apple. Just sharing something that happened. All out there, have a blessed day and don't work too hard.
