| 2 days ago | comment | added | eddy ardonne | @NotationMaster After one of the resets, the option 'Hardware Keyboard' appeared under Settings > General > Keyboard. There, I could change the setting for 'Swedish', from 'Automatic - U.S.' to 'Swedish', which solved the problem. Not sure why this option appeared all of a sudden (the keyboard was connected all the time), and why the Swedish keyboard was set to 'Automatic - U.S.' but in any case, the problem is solved now. Thanks for your time! | |
| 2 days ago | comment | added | eddy ardonne | @NotationMaster I connected the iPad to my macbook pro, which seems to work as expected. Is there something special I should check? If I connect the magic keyboard to my macbook, it doesn't seem to work as an external keyboard, but I don't think that's what you had in mind. | |
| 2 days ago | comment | added | NotationMaster | I wonder if it may be a problem with iPadOS. Do you have a Mac handy to try if this works as you expect it to? | |
| Dec 8 at 19:37 | comment | added | eddy ardonne | @NotationMaster I should have been clearer, it is a Magic Keyboard. As you said, the physical keys are in US-EN, but I want them to respond as using the SWE layout (for instance). I tried the Forced Restart, but that didn't solve the problem. | |
| Dec 8 at 19:35 | comment | added | eddy ardonne | @TomGewecke, thanks, this is actually precisely what I did, but it doesn't work. When I add two momolingual keyboards, the symbols I get when using the swedish layout, are those from the US-EN layout | |
| Dec 8 at 12:43 | comment | added | Tom Gewecke | Try going back to monolingual keyboards. Instructions at discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-250009074 | |
| Dec 8 at 11:28 | comment | added | NotationMaster | To be sure I understand: the external keyboard is separated from the iPad, not a Magic Keyboard cover, correct? In any case, the physical keys will obviously be in US-EN but you want them to respond as using the SWE layout. You mentioned it working before 18.1. Have you tried a Forced Restart? | |
