Bluetooth dongle installation

You have to go to bluetooth settings, forget the device, then make sure the keyboards off when you forget it, then turn the keyboard on and reconnect. I have to do it all the time with my Xbox controller.

If it's a hardware keyboard that connects using bluetooth there are several possibilities:

1. The Tab E has wireless crosstalk problems: If you use wifi and bluetooth at the same time they will interfere with each other.

2. Possibly the battery in your keyboard is dead. Charge it or change the batteries.

3. Try unpairing and re-pairing the keyboard in the Bluetooth Settings.

Is my tablet Bluetooth compatible

Blue tooth keyboards come with a dongle that operates them. If you have an unused USB port just connect a keyboard that has a USB plug on the end of it's cord.

You can purchase a bluetooth transmitter if you device has a 1/4 headphone jack

Unfortunately, that's impossible. A dongle wouldn't work.

If your tablet is Bluetooth-enabled, follow the set up instructions that came with the keyboard. Basically, you turn Bluetooth on on both the keyboard and the tablet. Start the process of pairing and connecting from the tablet. If you are asked to enter a password/passkey and it is not specified in the keyboard's manual enter '0000' or '1234' (without the quotes). Note that the password is required only for pairing, therefore it will happen only the first time. If your tablet is not Bluetooth-enabled, you cannot connect the keyboard to it.

Make sure the keyboard is really blue tooth. Most are not. Look on the underside of the keyboard to see if the usb dongle is hiding there much like wireless mouse's have.

Sorry to hear/read this really.
One thing you've got to know and as a matter of fact acquaint yourself with is this-

Original Apple OS devices, gadgets and equipments DO NOT readily pair or connect with Android OS based devices, gadgets and equipments.

With time, maybe someone can find a way round to resolve this impasse but at the time, its best you save yourself all the aggravations.

Make use of your maplin keyboard instead.

Standard spec doesn't show bluetoooth but if you have a bluetooth dongle yes it is possible but the Windows standard bluetooth driver doesn't do it. There is a better bluetooth driver available on the Toshiba website which works with many hardware devices.
