Hello Wendiburns,


Have you tried forgetting the Apple Pencil on your iPad, then reconnecting it? Or restarting your iPad? Do you disconnect it from your husband’s iPad before trying to use it on yours?


If you need help doing any of the advise I gave above, just reply, I hope this is helpful!


Sincerely,

Caprain
