Connect your Logitech Bluetooth keyboard in three steps
To connect a Logitech Bluetooth keyboard, turn on the keyboard, put your device into Bluetooth pairing mode, then select the keyboard from the list of available devices. The whole process takes about two minutes and works the same way on Windows computers, Macs, tablets, and phones. Most Logitech keyboards pair once and then reconnect automatically whenever you turn them on.
The exact steps depend slightly on what device you are using, but the keyboard itself works the same way every time. If your keyboard does not appear in the pairing list, the most common fix is making sure the keyboard is actually powered on — many people miss the small power switch on the back or side.
Key Takeaways
- Turn on the keyboard first by flipping the power switch, usually located on the back or underside, and look for a light that indicates it is on.
- Put your device into Bluetooth pairing mode through Settings on Windows and Mac, or through Bluetooth settings on phones and tablets.
- Select the keyboard from the list of available devices — it will usually show as "Logitech K" followed by numbers or letters.
- Once paired, the keyboard will reconnect automatically the next time you turn it on, so you only need to pair once.
- If the keyboard does not show up, check that it is powered on, that Bluetooth is turned on in your device settings, and that the keyboard is in pairing mode.
Turn on the keyboard and check for the pairing light
Locate the power switch on your Logitech keyboard. On most models, this is a small toggle or slide switch on the back of the keyboard or underneath near the battery compartment. Flip it to the "On" position. You should see a light turn on — usually blue or white — which means the keyboard is powered and ready to pair.
If you do not see a light, check that you have fresh batteries installed. Open the battery compartment (usually on the underside) and look for two or four AA or AAA batteries. Make sure they are inserted with the positive and negative ends facing the right direction — there are usually small diagrams inside the compartment showing which way they go. Replace them if they look old or corroded.
Some newer Logitech keyboards use a rechargeable battery instead. If yours has a USB charging port, plug it in for a few minutes and try again. The light should appear once the battery has enough charge.
Put your Windows computer into pairing mode
Click the Windows Start button in the bottom left corner of your screen. Type "Bluetooth" into the search box and click "Bluetooth and other devices settings" when it appears. This opens the Bluetooth settings panel.
In the Bluetooth settings window, make sure the Bluetooth toggle at the top is switched to "On" — it should be blue. Then click "Add device" or "Add Bluetooth or other device" near the top of the window. A new window will open asking what type of device you want to add. Click "Bluetooth" and wait for your computer to start searching.
Your Logitech keyboard should appear in the list within a few seconds. Click on it to select it, then click "Pair" or "Connect". Windows will confirm when the connection is successful.
Put your Mac into pairing mode
Click the Apple menu in the top left corner and select "System Settings" (on newer Macs) or "System Preferences" (on older ones). Look for "Bluetooth" in the sidebar and click it.
Make sure Bluetooth is turned on — you should see "Bluetooth: On" at the top of the window. Your Logitech keyboard should appear in the list of available devices within a few seconds. Click on it and then click "Connect". Your Mac will confirm when the keyboard is paired.
Connect on iPhone, iPad, or Android
On an iPhone or iPad, open Settings and tap "Bluetooth". Make sure Bluetooth is turned on by checking that the toggle is green. Your Logitech keyboard should appear in the "Other Devices" section within a few seconds. Tap on it to pair.
On an Android phone or tablet, open Settings and look for "Bluetooth" or "Connected devices". Tap it and make sure Bluetooth is turned on. Tap "Pair new device" or the plus icon to search for devices. Select your Logitech keyboard from the list and tap "Pair".
Once paired on any phone or tablet, the keyboard will reconnect automatically whenever you turn it on and the device is nearby. You will not need to pair again unless you reset the keyboard or pair it with a different device.
What to do if the keyboard does not appear in the pairing list
The most common reason a Logitech keyboard does not show up is that it is not actually powered on. Go back and double-check the power switch. Look for any light on the keyboard itself — even a very faint one. If there is no light at all, the batteries are likely dead. Replace them and try again.
Make sure Bluetooth is turned on in your device settings. On Windows, go back to "Bluetooth and other devices settings" and check that the toggle is blue. On Mac, open Bluetooth settings and confirm it says "Bluetooth: On". On phones and tablets, check the Bluetooth settings the same way.
If the keyboard is on and Bluetooth is enabled but the keyboard still does not appear, try moving the keyboard closer to your device. Bluetooth has a range of about 30 feet, but obstacles like walls or metal objects can reduce that. Also try restarting your device — sometimes this clears up pairing problems.
If you have already paired this keyboard with a different device, it may still be connected to that device. Logitech keyboards can only pair with one device at a time. Go to the other device's Bluetooth settings and remove or forget the keyboard, then try pairing with your current device again.
Reconnect after the first pairing
Once you have paired your keyboard with a device, you do not need to pair again. Simply turn the keyboard on the next time you want to use it. It will automatically reconnect to the last device it was paired with, as long as that device is nearby and has Bluetooth turned on.
If the keyboard does not reconnect automatically, make sure Bluetooth is turned on in your device settings. You can also try turning the keyboard off and back on again. If it still does not reconnect, go to your Bluetooth settings, find the keyboard in the list of paired devices, and click "Connect" or "Pair" again — you should not need to enter any code.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to enter a code to pair my Logitech keyboard?
Most Logitech Bluetooth keyboards pair without requiring a code. If your device asks for a PIN or passkey, try typing "0000" or "1234". If that does not work, check the manual that came with your keyboard — some older models use a different default code.
Can I use one Logitech keyboard with multiple devices?
You can pair a Logitech keyboard with multiple devices, but it only connects to one at a time. To switch between devices, go to the Bluetooth settings on the device you want to use and select the keyboard to connect. You will need to disconnect it from the previous device first.
Why does my keyboard keep disconnecting?
Disconnections usually happen because Bluetooth is turned off on your device, the keyboard batteries are low, or something is blocking the signal between them. Check that Bluetooth is on, replace the batteries if they are old, and move the keyboard closer to your device. If disconnections continue, try unpairing and pairing again.
What if my keyboard was paired before and I cannot remember which device?
Reset the keyboard by holding down the power button for 10 seconds until the light blinks rapidly. This clears all previous pairings. Then turn it back on and pair it with your current device as if it were new. Check your keyboard manual for the exact reset steps, as they vary by model.
Is my Logitech keyboard Bluetooth or does it use a USB receiver?
Check the box or manual that came with your keyboard. Logitech makes both Bluetooth and wireless keyboards that use a small USB receiver. If you have a tiny USB dongle, your keyboard uses the receiver, not Bluetooth. Bluetooth keyboards do not come with a receiver and pair directly through your device settings.
