External Keyboards and Input Devices
Horizon Client supports the iPad Keyboard Dock and Apple Wireless Keyboard (Bluetooth) external
keyboards. Horizon Client supports Apple Pencil as a pointer device on iPad Pro and the Swiftpoint GT
mouse on any iOS device that the Swiftpoint GT mouse supports.
Using an External Keyboard
Horizon Client automatically detects the iPad Keyboard Dock external keyboard. To use the Apple
Wireless Keyboard (Bluetooth) with a remote desktop or application, you must first pair the keyboard with
the client device. After you pair the keyboard with the iPad, make sure that you do not have the onscreen
keyboard in split keyboard mode when you attempt to make the iPad detect the Bluetooth keyboard. To
make the client device detect the wireless keyboard, tap the screen with three fingers at the same time, or
tap the Keyboard button in the Horizon Client Tools.
Also with the Apple Wireless Keyboard (Bluetooth), after the external keyboard is detected, you cannot
use the Horizon Client Tools or three-finger tap to display the onscreen keyboard. You must first
deactivate the external keyboard by pressing its Eject key.
Note The Apple Wireless Keyboard (Bluetooth) does not input the Japanese full-width tilde correctly in
remote desktops.
