    [iPad Pro] Won't recognize Smart Keyboard

    Been having a problem with my iPad Pro recognizing the Smart Keyboard when plugged in. Is there some trick to activate the Smart Keyboard, or is this likely a problem with the smart connector? The first time, restarting the iPad Pro fixed the problem. However, I haven't been able to use the...

    iPad Pro Help me decide... yes another one

    Hello all, I am currently iPad Air 1 user, had the first iPad, the first Retina iPad. I have been a Mac user since a 512k Mac, like others have/had numerous iPhones. I am trying to decide if the iPad Pro is right for what I am looking for. I am hoping current owners/users can relate to the the...

    iPad Pro Any Omnigraffle alternatives?

    Finally jumped in and got the IPP, Pencil and keyboard. I'm no artist, but this is a great tool for business on the go and fast software fixes. I love the Omni apps and have used Omnigraffle on my Mac but $50 for an app that I will use only occasionally seems steep. I don't need the feature set...

    iPad Pro Poll:Where did you get your Apple Pencil and Smart Keyboard? Also, Who is still waiting for theirs?

    I placed my order (Sweetwater) on 1/12 and they still haven't received either. The initial estimate was 1/18 for the Keyboard and 1/22 for the Pencil. Where did you get your's and how long did it take?

    iPad Pro Are there any good cases with a built in stand like the Surface Pro, or something similar in use?

    I'm thinking of getting an iPad Pro for school, but I don't like the Smart Keyboard at all. I love the idea of the kickstand on the Surface Pro, and would like to get a case similar to that. I'd get a bluetooth keyboard separate which would be great for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    iPad Pro Duet Display on iPad Pro

    Since Duet Display is now on sale, do you think it would be worth it to use on an iPad Pro? It might be interesting to use as a 13" monitor, but considering that the iPad Pro needs 12W to charge, the battery drain might be kicking in. Any experiences with it?

    iPad Pro Problems

    Hi All, Has anyone had any of the following on their iPad pro? I've had two issues now and to be honest, I expected more for nearly £1000! 1. Loose Smart Cover internal magnet. Had this on both of my Air's. Apple replaced the pro. 2. Now the backlight on the screen is flickering all the time...

    App That Converts Handwritten Note to Digital Text

    I'm still waiting for my Apple Pencil to show up. In the meantime I'm considering the possibilities for my everyday use. I use my iPP at work when I'm out and about for several things (VMware Horizon to run desktop programs, as a second monitor when I'm in meetings, and to take notes.) I...

    iPad Pro Finally got to try a Pencil in person...meh

    TLDR - I didn't like it. I live over an hour from an Apple store, so I don't get there much. But yesterday we were in the neighborhood and I decided to stop in and try one. My current stylus is a N-trig based Surface 4 Pen that I am using on a Vaio Canvas Z. N-trig has its issues, so I...

    All iPads Wacom would go out of business with universal pencil support.

    I think this is a thread that most fellow artist will relate to. With this your will understand why the pencil is such a big deal. For those non artist wacom is a company that creates drawing tablets and the preferred tool maker for digital artists. Google any piece of digital art and odds are...

    iPad Pro Seriously, STILL NO KEYBOARDS FROM 3RD PARTIES?????

    THIS IS RIDICULOUS. Can anyone offer any explanations as to why there have NOT YET BEEN any third party smart connecting keyboards for the iPP????? OTHER THAN THAT MONSTROSITY FROM LOGITECH? Is Apple restricting compatible keyboards into the marketplace until they can sell x amount of their...

    iPad Pro iPad Pro screen intermittently turns on with Apple Smart Keyboard

    I have an iPad Pro with the Apple Smart Keyboard. When it's just sitting there with the keyboard either behind the screen as a back cover or in stand mode, the screen will turn on intermittently. This can get annoying. As you can see by the video I'm posting, it sits next to my computer, so I'm...

    Resolved Pencil looses connectivity to iPad Pro

    If you find that your Pencil which was working fine with your iPad Pro suddenly won't access the screen/apps, check to see that the tip is fully screwed in. It's threaded to the outer Pencil sleeve so you can replace tips when necessary. I didn't realize this and had noted that my Pencil tip was...

    GarageBand on iPad Pro

    I would love to see Apple update GarageBand for the iPad Pro. In fact, I would buy a more customized app specifically made for the iPP as I think there are a lot of nice features that could be utilized on this device. Aside from drawing, this was the app I was most looking forward to noodiling...

    Cleaning the Smart Keyboard

    While my Smart Keyboard is currently shiny and new, I know it won't always be like that. Poked around to see if anyone else talked about this and didn't find any other posts. Does Apple have a specific instruction on how to clean this keyboard? It feels like some kind of fabric material. I'm...

    iPad Pro Accessory Price Funnies

    Mused by a similar thread in the power pc forum to share some of the insane prices people ask. Thought it would be amusing here. I must admit, I had a bit of a fever to get a pencil but would never pay the prices some people think they can get for an item we know will be in full stock pretty...

    iPad Pro Keyboard Idea

    Samsung introduced the Galaxy Tablet Pro S. I really like the keyboard design. Essentially, the back cover flap stays on the back of the tablet magnetically, which allows two viewing modes. When closed, it is EXTREMELY THIN AND LIGHTWEIGHT. Mind you, this device runs full Windows 10. The...

    Surprised accessories still aren't in stock + bad experience with logitech case

    I need to rant...Over the weekend on a whim I decided to splurge and pick up a 128gb iPad Pro. I purchased it at Best Buy to collect reward points and wasn't surprised when the clerk told me they didn't have any of the accessories in stock as I remember several months ago hearing something on MR...
