Apple iOS 11

idk where the forum topic descriptor went, but evidently a tech question isn’t welcome on the West Mall ...

Anyone else having problems with Bluetooth keyboards and iOS 11?

My APPLE Bluetooth keyboard won’t function properly with my ios11 iPad. Top row seems to work properly, but the QWERTY doesn’t.

It’s not the keyboard bc it works fine with the company’s iOS 10 iPad.

Thx.

@ShAArk92 Did you get this resolved?

I haven’t seen this particular issue before. Apple Support is pretty good if you want to call them at (800) 275-2273.

I found this Apple article, maybe it will help.

Thanks Dionysus.

No help. The keyboard works on iOS 10 units. Doesn’t work properly on 11.

The screen intensity function operates correctly. Play/pause “Music” volume control. But nothing in the “QWERTY” part of the keyboard.

Kinda puts a chink in the “Mac just works” armor.

Well ... sorry y’all ... I’m back on my apple keyboard! “You’ve gotta suffa!”

Reset network settings.

Evidently some (most?) of the upgrades weren’t transferring all the data points into the existing connections (like Bluetooth) ... they are aware.

So ... it could be 11.0.2 will be released before Halloween!

Guess this goes to show ... there’s no “debugging” like having millions of devices go “live.”

Juan was very helpful. So ... bad on the debugging ... but kudos for the quick fix and admission.
