Apple TV Pairing Note

When the matching numbers come up on the TV and the mac, you must first press the enter button (largest button) on the apple tv remote, and only then, on the Mac - click on the 'yes' button.


I Can't hit Send on iPhone/iPad Messages/Whatsapp

Unfortunately Apple doesn't support hitting Send using an external Bluetooth Keyboard, so 1Keyboard cannot do this either. We will have to stay tuned untill Apple finally add this very requested feature.
