Keyboard on iPad Mini doesn't work correctly

I have an iPad mini retina display 16GB model ME279B/A
When I type, all is fine using English/UK QWERTY keyboard but when I try to type a ! with the !/, key I get a ' and when I try to type a ? with the ?/. I get a "
How can I rectify this problem please?
This also is not app specific

The ' and " are alternate selections for those keys. If you press and hold on those keys you will see those choices.
Apparently, when you are typing, you are holding the keys down too long and getting the alternates.

  • Newly created passcode to iPad Mini doesn't work!

    I recently upgraded my OS software on my iPad mini like I always do when requested.  I created a passcode like it asked me to do.  Today it won't work.  How do I check to see what passcode I created and to verify if what I typed is what I thought I created?  I can't get into my iPad Mini!

    Hello MacGymnast,

  • Skype on iPad mini doesn't work as the app is not requesting the microphone

    I'm running the latest version of Skype on an iPad mini with the latest version of IOS 8. The problem is that Skype won't request access to the microphone, meaning that I can't grant it access.

  • How can I avoid duplicates on contacts and how do I get contacts created on iPhone/ipad synchronized on my mac? so far it doesn't work correctly, just sometimes. same for icalendar

    how can I avoid duplicates on contacts and how do I get contacts created on iPhone/ipad synchronized on my mac? so far it doesn't work correctly, just sometimes. same for icalendar

    On your Mac, for duplicates, switching Contacts off then back on in System Preferences > iCloud may prevent duplicates.
    On the iPhone / iPad tap Settings > iCloud. Make sure Contacts and Calendars are swtiched on.
    Try restarting your Mac and your iOS devices when items won't sync as they should.
    To restart an iOS device:  Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • AirPlay does not work with iPhone 4 s or iPad.Remote doesn´t work as well

    AirPlay does not work with iPhone 4 s or iPad.Remote doesn´t work as well.
    WLAN is working, I can use Youtube on my AppleTV, but I can´t connect to my computer or use airplay on my iPhone or iPad.

    Something is not configured correctly that is creating issues with your AppleTV.  You can disconnect it from the TV and power, and then plug it into your computer with a micro-USB cable.  After launching iTunes on your computer, you will be able to restore it to default settings and upgrade the software.

  • Game Center doesn't work correctly

    Game Center on iPod Touch 2nd Gen doesn't work correctly under iOS 4.2.1
    It shows wrong language (Englist but not my native language. My region setting is right and the system language right too.)
    Besides, the "Games" page only has a button "Find Game Center Games", while it should show my Game Center Games.
    The Friends page shows all my friends. But when I press a friend the sub page doesn't show the game my friend and I have in common.
    I've restored my device several times, but it didn't help.
    How to solve it?

    I've had exactly the same problem on my 2nd gen since early May when it just stopped working out of the blue.
    There are a few threads here on the subject. I believe that every 2nd gen is affected as I've yet to hear a 2nd gen owner say that theirs works.
    Other than waiting for Apple to fix it I don't think there is a solution.

  • My ipad mini doesn't have a web browser! Help. I can't access the internet or iTunes or the app store. The web browser icon isn't even there.Anyone know what to do?

    My ipad mini doesn't have a web browser! Help. I can't access the internet or iTunes or the app store. The web browser icon isn't even there.Anyone know what to do?

    I'd maybe try doing a search for Safari on your iPad first (swipe to the left to search). If it shows up in that search you can go to Settings > General > Reset and choose 'reset home screen layout' which will put it back where it would be by default.
    All else fails? Restore it.

  • My iPad mini doesn't charge sometimes, and if it charges it only can charge to 92% then stops.

    At most time, my iPad mini doesn't charge at all. I have searched the problem on Internet, somebody says it is about the temperature, but the weather of the place I live ain't that cold. Once it can charge, it can only charge to 92% everytime. Someone to help me solve it? iOS 6.0.1!

    Thanks, I'm use to apple products displaying a electric plug ensuring that it switched to ac mode.

  • HT4623 My iPad mini is not working right ?? On some apps

    My iPad mini is not working right on some apps

    You can always try to reset your device and see if it helps matters any:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • AddChild doesn't work correctly in 11.9

    comparing the two releases listed below, somehow my Flash program doesn't work correctly on the latest version anymore, nothing was changed in my program but after upgrading to the latest Flash Player, it doesn't work properly anymore, specifically, the items I add through the addChild method doesn't appear properly, was there any changes in between these versions that could have affected the addChild behavior?
