My Belkin Bluetooth keyboard flashes 5 blue lights when I turn it on and then stops. Tried this several times with the same recurring result. Unable to keep it going to pair with iPad-yes, its charged

It's fairly easy to set up usually. With the keyboard powered on there is usually a button that turns bluetooth on and a (usually) blue light will start flashing. At this point on the iPad you look in the bluetooth settings page and look for the keyboard to appear in the available devices. Tap the link to it and follow the instruction. The blue light should stop flashing and remain lit and the iPad BT settings will show that the keyboard is connected.

1. Charge the headset:Headset is charged via USB cable, the light will be red when charging. When the battery is fully charged (about 2-3 hours), the red light of the headset will turn off automatically or the red light turns blue.
2. Turn on the headset:Press the on / talk button on the headset for about 5 seconds until the blue and red flashes alternately (or blue flashes or the blue lights all the time ), now the headset is ready to be connected to the iPhone.
3. Go to Settings, and tap Bluetooth. Turn on Bluetooth.
iPhone will automatically start searching for Bluetooth devices. Tap the device in the Devices list, then follow the onscreen instructions to connect to it. After matching successfully, the blue light on the headset will flash twice per time.
4. Call: when you finish all the above steps, you are going to talk via the Bluetooth headset. When there is incoming call, press the on / talk button, you can talk with Bluetooth headset, when you want to end the call, press the on / talk button, you can end the call.
5. Turn off the headset: Press the on / talk button for 5 seconds until the red light of the headset flashes quickly for twice, then release the button, the headset will be turned off.

You will need to enable bluetooth on your iPad and then pair the keyboard to the iPad. Try the following:

• On your iPad, tap the settings icon from the Home Screen.
• Tap on General.
• Tap on Bluetooth.
• Toggle Bluetooth to On
• Turn on the Belkin keyboard.
• The keyboard will show up under Devices on the iPad.
  Select Belkin Bluetooth Keyboard.
• A code will appear on the screen.
  Enter this code on the keyboard and click Enter.

A message will pop up when pairing is successful. If pairing fails, repeat the steps above. If you're still unable to pair the two leave a comment and I will help further troubleshoot.

Hope that helps!

The manual for the Vibe iPad Bluetooth Keyboard Folio is completely wrong. To turn on the keyboard, press and hold the button above the word "charge" in the upper right hand of the keyboard. Blue lights beneath the word "power" and beneath the Bluetooth symbol should flash. In order to pair the keyboard, press the same button above "charge" and hold for a shorter time. The light beneath the Bluetooth symbol should flash.

Found this online. Hope it helps you out.

Switching the headset on
To switch the headset on:
Press and hold the Play/Pause button for 2 seconds.
An ascending confirmation beep is heard in the headset and the LED indicates the current operating mode. Flashing in blue indicates that the battery charge status is OK; flashing in red indicates a low
battery (see page 6).
The LED flashes several times every second:
The headset is paired to one or several Bluetooth devices and tries to connect to one of these devices.
The LED flashes slowly (once every second):
The headset is paired to one or several Bluetooth devices. However, there is no current connection because the
Bluetooth device is switched off or out of range.
The LED flashes once every 3 seconds:
The headset is paired to one or several Bluetooth devices. However, there is neither an audio transmission nor an active call.
The LED is glowing slowly every 4 seconds:
The headset is paired to one or several Bluetooth devices, a sound file is received via A2DP and played back or
paused.
The LED flashes once every second:
The headset is paired to one or several Bluetooth devices and there is currently an active call.
If you switch on the headset and keep the Play/Pause button pressed for 5 seconds, the headset will go into pairing mode (see ?Pairing the headset? on page 9).
The LED flashes alternatingly in red and blue for up to 60 seconds:
The headset is not yet paired to any Bluetooth device. Pair it as described under ?Pairing the headset? on page 9.

You will need to turn off your headset and then press and hold the power button until the LED starts to flash red/blue, red/blue, it will stay in this state for a few minutes.

You simply need to hold the button down for a long time, it will flicker blue at first, don't let go of the button, and it'll turn blue for pairing.
