Can I use this keyboard with a Windows PC or iPad?

While the keyboard may function as a basic Bluetooth keyboard with other devices, the Touch ID feature and automatic pairing are specifically designed for and fully functional only with compatible Mac devices.

What kind of cable is included for charging?

A woven USB-C to Lightning cable is included in the box, which can be used for both charging the keyboard and initial pairing with your Mac.

Does this keyboard have backlighting?

How do I check the battery level?

You can check the battery level of your Magic Keyboard by clicking the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar of your Mac and looking for the keyboard's entry.

Troubleshooting

Magic Keyboard isn't pairing with my Mac.

Ensure the keyboard is charged by connecting it with the USB-C to Lightning cable to your Mac. Check that Bluetooth is enabled on your Mac (System Settings > Bluetooth). If still not pairing, try restarting your Mac and the keyboard.

Touch ID isn't working or recognized.

Verify that your Mac model supports Touch ID and that macOS is up to date. Go to System Settings > Touch ID & Password to ensure your fingerprints are set up correctly. If issues persist, try restarting your Mac.

Keyboard not charging when connected.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Automatic Pairing: Once connected via cable, your Magic Keyboard will automatically pair with your Mac. You will see a notification on your screen confirming the connection.
Wireless Use: After initial pairing, you can disconnect the cable to use the keyboard wirelessly via Bluetooth. It will automatically reconnect to your Mac when turned on.

Care

Cleaning: To clean your Magic Keyboard, gently wipe it with a soft, lint-free cloth. If necessary, slightly dampen the cloth with water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, aerosols, or abrasives, as these can damage the keyboard's finish.
Charging: Recharge the keyboard when the battery indicator on your Mac shows low battery. The long-lasting battery means you won't need to charge frequently, typically once a month or more.
Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the keyboard in a dry, cool place.
