New Magnetic Connector Owners

On August 28, 2011, in Magic Connector, by admin

Congratulations on joining the growing number of people who have already discovered the ease and benefit of owning a Magic Connector!  Using this cleverly designed adapter will immensely enhance your Wireless Apple Keyboard and Magic Trackpad experience.

 Quick start guide video

Getting Connected
1. First put your Magic Trackpad, Wireless Keyboard (powered down) and Magic Connector on a table or firm, flat surface.

2. Next, clean the underside of your trackpad and keyboard with rubbing alcohol or degreaser, especially where adhesive tape (pre-applied to magnets) will stick on.
This step is crucial, as oils can prevent the adhesive tape from sticking properly.

As you prepare to connect you should be looking at the bottom of the Magic Trackpad on the LEFT and the bottom of the Keyboard on the RIGHT (if you are right handed – Vise versa for lefties.)


3. Once the backing is removed from the three magnets, position the connector over the keyboard and trackpad with the connector centered. The short edge of the connector should be resting against the battery compartment.

 

Apply downward pressure on the connector pushing the adhesive onto the keyboard and trackpad for ten seconds.

The 3M adhesive tape will be removable until it cures (50% adhesion strength immediately 75% after 1 hour and 95% after 24 hours).

You can disconnect the keyboard and trackpad by sliding them off to the left or right.

The magnets are extremely high strength and and the is adhesive used to bond glass to steel in skyscrapers. They are useful for a wide variety of applications and can be purchased separately in our store.

Enjoy the freedom and convenience of using your keyboard and trackpad anywhere with your Magic Connector!

Troubleshooting


Thought this is a simple product to install and use, we occasionally have had people email for support. Read on for answers to uncommon issues

“My magnets are not sticking to the keyboard”
Plastics are difficult to stick to and every once in a while customers have this problem even though they did use the alcohol wipes provided to remove finger oil. We do provide extra tape strips and if these are not enough we will send you out more.  If you have a well used keyboard and the tape provided does not stick a drop of Superglue on the tape works wonders.
“The magnets pull the touch pad so much that the pad thinks i am constantly clicking(pushing down) Do you have a solution to correct this error?”
The problem is the magnets with adhesive foam tape are to far back toward the rail and are pulling to hard (they should be closer to the edge with the Magic Connector logo).  Sometimes it can be resolved by simply slowly pulling the trackpad away from the connector to loosen up the foam adhesive tape. You can remove them and replace them a few millimeters toward the front edge.
