Magic Keyboard

Magic Keyboard name boundary

The draft must preserve uncertainty about whether this registry entry denotes standalone keyboards, iPad accessories or a broader family.

1. Which originating registry record or external identifier establishes the intended meaning of Magic Keyboard? provenance
2. Does the entry include iPad accessories and notebook-integrated keyboards, or do those belong to separate registered concepts? boundary

Markings and layout evidence

Model markings and documented physical features should jointly support variant identification; a unit's serial number serves a different purpose.

1. Which model identifier and product documentation establish this variant and generation? provenance
2. Which observed key layout, connector and accessory features corroborate that identification? definition

Feature-specific host support

Compatibility should be assessed separately for typing, Touch ID, trackpad operation and any other supported feature.

1. Which host models and operating-system versions are documented as supporting this exact Magic Keyboard variant? provenance
2. Does the proposed host satisfy the additional requirements of every feature the user intends to use? action

Branch-specific connection

Setup must follow the identified variant's communication and attachment arrangement rather than assume that every Magic Keyboard uses Bluetooth pairing.

1. Which documented interface carries keyboard input, and what pairing or attachment steps does it require? definition
2. For an iPad accessory, do the supported host designation, attachment geometry and connector alignment all match? boundary

Physical and configured layout

Printed legends, physical layout and the host-selected input source are distinct observations needed to interpret unexpected characters or shortcuts.

1. What regional layout, language legends and numeric-keypad arrangement does this variant have? definition
2. Which host input-source and modifier settings should be checked when typed output differs from key legends? action

Touch ID, trackpad and lighting

Each optional feature needs separate evidence of physical presence, host support and operational state; biometric information belongs outside this model.

1. Which of Touch ID, a trackpad, backlighting and dedicated control keys are documented for this variant? provenance
2. How can each present feature be tested through supported host controls without recording credentials or biometric templates? action

Battery and port roles

A connector's appearance does not establish whether it charges the keyboard, provides pass-through charging to an iPad or carries input data.

1. Does this variant contain a rechargeable battery or obtain operating power from its host? definition
2. What charging, power-delivery and data roles are explicitly documented for each connector? provenance

Observable operating state

Readiness requires observable evidence appropriate to the variant, such as host-reported charge, connection status and a successful typing check.

1. What charge reading or host-power evidence is available, and when was it observed? measurement
2. Which supported checks distinguish absent power, an unestablished link and connected-but-failing input? action

Input and attachment symptoms

Record specific symptoms and test conditions before attributing a fault to the keyboard rather than the host or its settings.

1. Which keys or optional controls fail, and is the failure repeatable under the same host and connection conditions? measurement
2. For an iPad accessory, is there visible damage, contact obstruction or unstable attachment that could explain the symptom? measurement

Documented maintenance actions

Cleaning, battery handling and work on keys or attachment mechanisms require variant-specific guidance rather than assumptions about generic keyboards.

1. Which manufacturer instructions govern cleaning, disconnection and handling for this exact variant? provenance
2. Which observed conditions require stopping use or seeking service instead of further pairing, charging or cleaning attempts? action
