So if you do decide to buy Typeedo, save yourself a few dollars and buy it on the Mac App Store. According to a representative from the company, this is the intended behavior, even though both versions are identical (it makes no sense to me either). If you purchase Typeedo via the link available in the trial version, it costs $13.96. After 7 days it’ll cost $7.99 on the Mac App Store. Typeedo is available to use without any restrictions for 7 days before you’ll be required to purchase it, so if you’re not happy with it you can just delete it and carry on. As long as the device supports bluetooth, you’re good to go. Using a fantastic little app named Typeedo you can use your Mac’s keyboard to control other devices – like an iPhone or iPad, Android phone or tablet, an Apple TV, a Windows PC – even a gaming system. I don’t really know what else, if anything, I can try.This guide will take you step by step through the process of using your Mac’s keyboard to type on and/or control another device. I’ve tried rebooting but it was no help…. Of course, re-entering Typedo causes that blootooth window to disappear, it shows the connecting dialog, which is then followed by the same bluetooth prompt, then both windows vanishing once again. This window will remain open indefinitely (even if I turn bluetooth off all together), unless I try again to go back into the Typedoo dock icon. Unfortuantly this does nothing, as the prompt stays open with the buttons disabled and a spinning progress indicator. Moving back into the app a number of times will occasionally cause the bluetooth prompt window to stay open (sans the Typeedo connection window) and I can click connent. If I re-select the app in my dock (as it remains running after vanishing) the connection window comes back up, followed by the same bluetooth connection prompt, and again they both vanish. Problem is, that window as well as the Typeedo connection window both vanish almost immediately after the bluetooth prompt is displayed. WHen I run the app I get a bluetooth promt asking me if I want to connect… The app worked well for a while, now I can’t get it to work at all and I have no idea how to fix it.
