FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

Folio Touch for iPad Pro 11-inch (1st, 2nd and 3rd gen)

On-screen keyboard appears momentarily while typing on the Combo Touch or Folio Touch****

Some customers may see the on-screen keyboard appear briefly when they type using the Combo Touch or Folio Touch keyboards. The recent Accessory Update from Apple has a fix for this issue, and will be pushed out with the following prompt:

After you select  Update , you’ll see a progress notification:

– The update takes approximately three minutes to complete. Please refrain from using the iPad during this time. Once the update is done, the dialog box will disappear, and you can continue to use the iPad and keyboard.
– During the update, you can put the iPad to sleep or wake it up using the power button. This will not interrupt the update.
– If you do need to interrupt the update, please disconnect the keyboard from the iPad. To use the keyboard again, you’ll need to complete the update through the dialog box, following the steps above.
– If you choose  Later , the dialog box is dismissed and you can continue to use the keyboard. You will be sent a reminder at a later time or when you power cycle/disconnect and reconnect the keyboard.

About the Logitech Control firmware update app****

Logitech has introduced a new iPadOS app called Logitech Control that lets you update the firmware and gives you greater customization of your Logitech iPad Case.

You can find this app in the App Store and download it directly onto your iPad. We recommend you install this to keep up-to-date on firmware for your device.

During firmware updates, it’s  important  that you do not use the keyboard or touchpad during the process, making sure that the keyboard stays connected, and that the app is open. The best way to accomplish this is to place the device into “typing mode” on a flat surface where there is no risk that the keyboard could become disconnected.

If the keyboard disconnects or the app is closed while you are applying a firmware update, the update may not complete and some functionality of your device may be lost. If this happens, you can force the firmware update by using the following steps:

1. Open Logitech Control App — make sure you’re using the newest version available in the App Store.
2. On the screen, using the  image of the keyboard within the app , place your fingers on the  Q + W + E  buttons (as highlighted in the image below), and then touch or press the  Globe  key on the image of the keyboard (also highlighted in the image below).

3. You will see the text below the Logi logo change to  Unlocking Firmware Update  when successful.

4. After “Unlocking Firmware Update” appears, tap the grayed-out  FIRMWARE UPDATE AVAILABLE  button.
5. The  New Firmware  window appears — tap  Start Update  to restart the firmware update.

NOTE: Remember to keep the keyboard attached, the app open, and refrain from using the keyboard or touchpad during the process.

Here’s how to update the Folio Touch firmware:

What should I do if some or all keys do not work on Folio Touch?****

Reconnect your device to the iPad and test the keyboard:
– Make sure the Smart Connector on the iPad and top of the keyboard is clean and free of debris.
– Verify that the iPad is in the case properly so that the Smart Connector aligns with the connector on the keyboard.

What can I do If the cursor jumps when I use the Folio Touch trackpad?****

If your cursor is jumpy when you use the Folio Touch trackpad, please try the following:
– Make sure that only one part of your finger is touching the surface and that you’re not resting your wrist on or very close to the surface. The touch surface might interpret this as your finger touching it and move the pointer in that direction.
– Keep the surface dry and clean:

– To clean the keyboard and trackpad, wipe with a lint-free cloth dampened in water.
– Don’t apply liquids directly on the keyboard.
– If the spine or the smart connector of the keyboard gets dirty or stained, apply a small amount of rubbing alcohol to a soft, lint-free cloth to clean.

What can I do if Folio Touch doesn’t respond when I type or move the cursor?****

If your Logitech Folio Touch shows one or more of the following symptoms:
– The keyboard or touchpad doesn’t respond when typing or moving the cursor.
– The keyboard or trackpad goes back and forth between working, and not working.
– The keyboard or touchpad is slow to respond.

Check the following:
– Make sure the physical connection is well secured.
– Clean the Smart Connector area if necessary.
– Check the iOS version and make sure your iPad is up to date.

If an issue still exists, download the Logitech Control App and see if the keyboard firmware needs to be updated.
