Warning message when Logitech device is connected to iPadOS

When you connect your Logitech device, you might see a warning message.
If this happens, make sure to connect only the devices you’ll be using. The more devices that are connected, the more interference you might have between them.
If you are having connectivity issues, disconnect any Bluetooth accessories that you’re not using. To disconnect a device:
– In Settings > Bluetooth, tap the information button next to the device name, then tap Disconnect.

Bluetooth mouse or keyboard not recognized after reboot on macOS (Intel-based Mac) – FileVault

If your Bluetooth mouse or keyboard does not reconnect after a reboot at the login screen and only reconnects after the login, this might be related to FileVault encryption.
When FileVault is enabled, Bluetooth mice and keyboards will only re-connect after login.

Potential solutions:
– If your Logitech device came with a USB receiver, using it will solve the issue.
– Use your MacBook keyboard and trackpad to login.
– Use a USB keyboard or mouse to login.

Note: This issue is fixed from macOS 12.3 or later on M1. Users with an older version might still experience it.

Does the K600 TV work with all Smart TV apps?

Smart TV apps are developed by third parties, who may or may not support external keyboards in their app. For example, the YouTube app doesn’t support keyboards on Samsung and LG Smart TVs.

If text input is not supported in your app, try accessing the site in your TV’s web browser or navigate the on-screen keyboard with the K600 TV D-pad (arrows). App support may be developed over time.

How do I set up my K600 TV Keyboard?

Basic input and navigation will work directly out of the box, however, you’ll need to perform the online set up so your keyboard shortcuts will work with your TV.

Setup is quick and easy:
1. Plug the receiver you received with your K600 TV keyboard into the device you want to use.
2. Remove the battery tab on the back of your K600 TV and make sure it’s turned on.
3. Open the web browser of your Smart TV, or the web browser of your PC, tablet, or phone and go to logitech.com/k600setup.
4. Select your device and follow the quick setup instructions.

NOTE: We strongly recommend that you use the included Logitech Unifying receiver to connect K600 keyboard to your Smart TV.

Backup device settings to the cloud in Logitech Options+

– INTRODUCTION
– HOW IT WORKS
– WHAT SETTINGS GET BACKED UP

INTRODUCTION
This feature on Logi Options+ allows you to backup the customization of your Options+ supported device automatically to the cloud after creating an account. If you are planning to use your device on a new computer or wish to go back to your old settings on the same computer, log into your Options+ account on that computer and fetch the settings you want from a backup to set up your device and get going.

HOW IT WORKS
When you are logged into Logi Options+ with a verified account, your device settings are automatically backed up to the cloud by default. You can manage the settings and the backups from the Backups tab under More settings of your device (as shown):

Manage settings and backups by clicking on More > Backups:

AUTOMATIC BACKUP OF SETTINGS — if the Automatically create backups of settings for all devices checkbox is enabled, any settings you have or modify for all of your devices on that computer are backed up to the cloud automatically. The checkbox is enabled by default. You can disable it if you don’t want the settings of your devices to be backed up automatically.

CREATE A BACKUP NOW — this button allows you to backup your current device settings now, if you need to fetch them later.

RESTORE SETTINGS FROM BACKUP — this button lets you view and restore all the available backups you have for that device that are compatible with that computer, as shown above.
The settings for a device are backed up for every computer that you have your device connected to and have Logi Options+ that you are logged into. Every time you make some modifications to your device settings, they get backed up with that computer name. The backups can be differentiated based on the following:

– Name of the computer. (Ex. John’s Work Laptop)
– Make and/or model of the computer. (Ex. Dell Inc., Macbook Pro (13-inch) and so on)
– The time when the backup was made
– The desired settings can then be selected and restored accordingly.

WHAT SETTINGS GET BACKED UP
– Configuration of all the buttons of your mouse
– Configuration of all the keys of your keyboard
– Point & Scroll settings of your mouse
– Any application-specific settings of your device

WHAT SETTINGS ARE NOT BACKED UP
– Flow settings
– Options+ app settings

NOTE: If you’re using the Unifying receiver to connect, be sure to plug it into the device you want to use. Otherwise, the LED will continue to blink.
