“Does the K400 work with an iPad? What is the purpose of the touchpad?”

1-7 of 7 Answers

• It does indeed work with an iPad if you have a USB adapter. I’m not sure what it’s called but I have one of these - it’s an adapter that attaches to the iPad (I have both an iPad 2 and a much newer Pro. I bought the USB adapter when I bought each iPad, to match their jack. One of the adapters available offers an SD card slot, and the other common one is a USB port. I’m typing this on an iPad Pro, using the USB adapter, and a K400+ Logitech keyboard. The RF receiver plugs into the USB adapter, which in my case plugs into the lightning jack where the power cord would normally attach. The trackpad portion of the keyboard has no purpose; you still need to touch the screen to click where needed. Amazingly the on-screen keyboard does not appear when the K400+ is attached. This is very handy for writing longer pieces, I imagine. I never tried this arrangement until I found your question. I guess this means my gaming keyboard would also work!

• You COULD make it work with an adapter, but... WHY? You want a Bluetooth-compatible keyboard (without a touchpad) for your iPad, not this.

• If the pad has a full size usb port it probably will work. The touchpad is the same as one on a laptop, it moves the cursor around the screen with a finger drag, and on some applications you can use a finger tap to select.

• No, it's not a Bluetooth keyboard. It's a RF-connected via USB adapter keyboard. The touchpad allows you to control a PC wirelessly using keyboard and mouse from one device.

• I don't believe this will work with anything without a USB port. The keyboard comes with a wireless dongle.

• I can't tell you if it will work with an iPad, but I can tell you that the purpose of the touchpad is to situate the cursor where you wish to start typing.
