Having problems linking my white Apple bluetooth keyboard to my iPad. Seen a few posts on other boards but thought I'd post here to see if anyone has figured this out.

When trying to link, the Bluetooth assistant sees the keyboard. Selecting it results in the busy spinner. Hitting return on the keyboard results in a quick flash of a Bluetooth link passcode immediately followed by a failure message.

I know the new keyboards link just fine, but has anyone figured out a workaround with the older keyboards?

Apple did say that you need the Aluminum ones for properly connect, so I think you're lucky the old ones even manages to connect at all.
