hey this is Lafe Johnson with Macworld
and I just got the new iPad pro this is
the 2018 12.9 Edition so I know a lot of
us have been wondering can we use an old
Apple pencil with the new iPad pro every
other data that we've heard so far says
that we cannot but we actually have an
adapter here and we're going to try it
out the problem is is that normally it's
hard to find a female connector to go
with the old Apple pencil but we got one
we got one and it's from tech mat so
we're gonna try that out and everything
it is so here's the new Apple pencil and
so what is right write our word here so
there we go there's Micro so we're gonna
try now to unpair this by putting in
this one so here's our USB C to
lightning cable we have one of these so
we'll plug that in and if this all goes
well it should pair so we'll put this
adapter on here and here it goes this is
where the magic happens it doesn't
appear to be paid so you know if if this
worked properly we would be saying like
do you want to pair this Apple pencil
and right now nothing is happening and
it still works of the old one
so I've done terror or it just when you
try to do it let's try it real quick it
won't take that long
let's see so Bluetooth I assume and
Apple pencil connected forget this
device we're gonna forget it move it
over here alright so we'll go back in
the notability all right here we go
doing it again and we have nothing so
yes that it you know we have unpaired
this Apple pencil we have tried to put
this one back in one more time and
there's nothing so no that proves it
this is the best way that we can think
of to actually pair an old cell Apple
pencil with the new iPad pro and you
can't do it so sorry everyone
