I am getting a machine communication error on my Maker

I have tried several times to do a print and cut. I have not used my Cricut in quite sometime. I am using my iPad. Should I switch to my MacAir?

Open your phone Settings, and unpair your Cricut machine from your device.
And tell me when it’s done

Ok this is going to sound dumb but how do I unpair?
I am at Design Space in settings

Open Settings > Bluetooth.
Click on the "i" near the device that you want to remove/forget.
Based on the current status of the device, you'll get the option Forget This Device.

I don’t know how to do that either.

What pin do you mean?
Lets try to pair it to your iPad
Ensure your Cricut Explore or Cricut Maker machine is powered on and within 10-15 feet of your mobile device. If you have the first Cricut Explore model or Cricut Explore One, ensure that your Wireless Bluetooth Adapter is inserted.
Open Settings > Bluetooth.
And tell me when its done

when I clicked on Maker the next screen asked for a pin

If Bluetooth is off, tap it to turn it on. You will see your Cricut Bluetooth device.
Select your adapter/Bluetooth module name from the list (You will find the name of your adapter in your packaging materials.)
Customer Reply
Ok. The pin was *****. I am now connected.
