Can't type in iOS 8 notification response with Bluetooth keyboard

When I receive a text message and tap on "Respond" in the notification, I am unable to type in dialog that pops up when my Bluetooth Keyboard. Even if I bring up an on-screen keyboard, it still won't take any input. When I turned Bluetooth off, I was able to respond in the dialog without a hitch. This looks like an iOS 8 bug to me, but I figured I'd post here and see if anyone else is having a similar problem.

I'm having the same issue. Only place my bluetooth keyboard won't work. Was hoping the update would fix it but, no

Why can´t I take a step back with the keyboard shortcut, cmd + ö, it was possible before, now you have to go to the bar at the top and "go back one step." I have Mac-systems, I also have mouse elbow, and do not want to use the mouse too often.

This article lists some other options for "Back" navigation. Do any of them work for you?

Mac Mini HD errors with bluetooth keyboard

I have a Mac Mini with bluetooth keyboard. I cannot boot to OSX Recovery (command R). Yet I need Disk Utility to repair HD errors.

I found this link searching Apple Mac Mini Support: Apple Wireless Keyboards: Using startup keys. Tried this and it worked on the second try. Worked using Restart in the middle of the startup chime sound, not Shutdown.

Livecycle Designer 8 - Is it possible to have button to clear fields after user has clicked submit by email button so user can reuse form to send another response with different answers?

Users will use form to fill in stats for enquiries so they want to keep form open, complete a form, click button to submit by email, then click another button to clear form, form now ready to accept form's responses. They dont' want to keep opening form each time form needs to be completed.
Hope you help.
Thanks Sandra

Hi,
Thanks for your response, not sure what you mean by a loop. I put together
a draft form to show staff in our Knowledge Centre the sort of thing
Livecycle Designer can do.
(See attached file: Library Request Form_pub_0001.pdf)
They are currently writing out on form and manually putting into excel to
keep stats on the requests.
Due to current Global Financial Crisis my section does not want to spend
extra money at the moment seeking assistance from our tech heads. So we
are looking for least work no expense option for keeping stats. I am a PA
who just happens to have Livecycle program on my computer.
We use Lotus Notes so I thought the staff could save copy of Library
request form in the stationery folder. The staff using the form want to be
able to do the following:
1. open the Library request form at the beginning of the day;
2. when a request comes in, complete the form and click on Send by email
button
3. click on a Clear Data button to clear all data from all fields so the
form is open ready for when the next request comes in.
Staff are time poor and, as this is only one of their numerous duties, they
don't want to keep going to a location and opening a file which can be very
slow on some days
Each day form may be filled out by approximately 15 staff who may receive
anything from 0 - 4 requests a day.
I am not a tech head so script writing is a deep, dark mystery. Can you
help using the form above as an example for achieving step 3 above.
Thanks,
Sandra Smith

if i understand this correctly, you just want everything cleared whena
buttons is pressed?
you can either do it individually:
on button click:
mytextField.rawData=""
or do a loop, using child/paretns..

Can you create a keyboard short cut for the dictation mic with bluetooth keyboards? The multi-button requirement to open the onscreen is annoying and unintuitive.

(Using an "iPad 3", i dont care what apple calls it) There should be a built in one button access to this from EVERY keyboard since this function is used to replace typing. An inherent Apple shortcut like copy and paste. I set my iPad up on a framed photo holder and use it like a moniter screen when I write, my Bluetooth keyboard is separated from it and makes writing comments and long articles less efficient because it requires extra steps with every dictation, while taking up screen space to have the on screen open. There needs to be a way to access dictation without the onscreen keyboard open, via any standard keyboard.

I was "reasonably frustrated" for having more than one answer offered for a question that not only didn't I ask, but made it clear I was aware of the information it appears they cut and paste at me.
I see it as: the title of my post should inform any person with an elementery handeling of the english language that I not only have this type of keyboard but am well aware it has a button for the ONSCREEN keyboard. That makes it look like they were just "approval hunting" #1. 2nd Grampa Joe's generic sounding response as a zero level newbie already who found "this" post where the first line is about keyboard shortcuts......WHEN there are better posts with more views and commets for exactly that. Approval hunting #2. I'd say based on both, my suspicion is darn reasonably justified sir.
"couldn't find the answer he wanted" no sir, I didn't get an answer at all, they answered OTHER questions. Questions I didn't ask, even after having explained myself more clearly. If anyone is a Jerk, it's you for jumping to eronous conclusions and attacking me for them on personal level. I made a justified claim based on the BLACK AND WHITE TEXT, that it still appears to me is well supported, you just flung mud.........who's the jerk?
Finally, your first post answered my question directly. Thank you. However under General/Keyboard, at the bottom you can make keyboard shortcuts. They may not function how I'm asking, but you can make them.

Can I buy MacBook Air in UK with russian keyboard?

Nobody in these forums represents Apple or any store. The only way to find out for sure whether you can buy something or not is for you to contact the store directly yourself. You might be able to visit an Apple retail store in the UK and place a special order for such a machine, but only that store could tell you.

Can I use USB mouse with bluetooth keyboard?

I am in need of some help. I recently got my iMac about 3 months ago and absolutely hate the magic mouse and want to use my rocketfish usb mouse along with the bluetooth mac keyboard. Is this possible or just wishful thinking on my end? I have searched everywhere for drivers and answers with programs etcetera and have came out empty. Help?

I've done so (and even tested it on my Macbook and the USB mouse works fine) but for some reason it will not interface with my iMac - and I've tired multiple USB ports and still nothing, which is why I brought up the keyboard being bluetooth I didn't know if that somehow may interfer with the USB mouse when the bluetooth keyboard is turned on and paired. I am pretty good when it comes to computers so I know what to look for and what I am doing (for the most part) but this has me stumped.

IPad Mini paired with bluetooth keyboard - periodically losing all Function keys

iPad Mini 6.0.2 (10A550)
Model MD529LL (32 gig wifi only)
Apple Bluetooth Keyboard (Model A1314)
I'm listening to the Mini, unplugged from power, with headphones, and the bluetooth keyboard connected. When playing music using either the IOS Music app, or Pandora, I am periodically losing the keyboard Function keys (brightness, track back, play/pause, track forward, mute, and volume up and down). Yet all other keyboard functions keep working -- I'm able to type email messages even though the Function keys are not working.
I have not found the exact combination of activities that causes the Function keys to stop working. I've tried using only Pandora, or only Music, letting the screen sleep, wake it back up with different methods. I can't break it at will, but eventually it does stop working. A power off and reboot of the iPad restores functionality.
Has anyone seen a bug of this type reported yet?

KeyRemap4MacBook with Bluetooth Keyboard?

I'd like to remap some keys on both my MBP 13 10.6.4 laptop keyboard and my Apple Bluetooth keyboard to function as a number pad. I've downloaded KeyRemap4MacBook, and haven't installed it yet.
I read on http://pqrs.org/macosx/keyremap4macbook/list.html --
# Don't remap external keyboards
# Don't remap Apple's keyboards
So...is it possible to use KeyRemap4MacBook with the Apple Bluetooth keyboard without causing any problems?
I've asked this question on the pqrs.org site but haven't received a response yet, and there's nothing on this subject over on the Bluetooth forum. Thanks for any help with this you can offer.

I think you need to read a bit more deeply into the documentation for KeyRemap4MacBook. At the top of the page you've linked, I find the following apparent admonitions, two of which you've already quoted:
•Don't remap an internal keyboard
•Don't remap external keyboards
•Don't remap Apple's keyboards
•Don't remap keyboards which has third vendor's driver (Logitech, Microsoft, Kensington, ...)
Thinking about these instructions for a moment, one quickly realizes that if these were instructions to the user, they would preclude the use of KR4M on any keyboard at all. That can't be what the software's developer intends.
And it isn't. The page you've linked +is not a page of instructions to the user.+ It's a page listing 1036 different instructions that the user, at his or her option, can program into KR4M to govern its behavior. I've never used KR4M, but it is the most widely and often recommended keyboard remapping utility for use on Apple notebooks, and that certainly wouldn't be true if it didn't work on them, were dangerous to them, or caused the user to turn into a pumpkin or a pillar of salt. So go ahead and try it out, and if it works for you, use it in good health.

HT3131 Booting in Clamshell Mode with Bluetooth keyboard

I have a macbook pro with retina display which I am using with two apple 27" monitors. I use a logitech K811 bluetooth keyboard while the macbook is closed. I would like to be able to boot from the keyboard directly. Does anyone know how to do this? I believe I saw instructions somewhere but cannot find them.

Hey there paulh20016,
It sounds like you are needing to set your Mac to let bluetooth devices wake it from sleep. You can do this in your System Preferences:
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Bluetooth.
Click Advanced.
Select the “Allow Bluetooth devices to wake this computer” checkbox.

IOS 8.2 And bluetooth keyboard troubles.

After the upgrade to iOS 8.2 my iPad air2 and iPhone 6 do not recognize the apple bluetooth keyboard anymore. Restart does not work. and when I try to connect a notification is made that the connection cannot be made.
Does anyone now how to fix this?

Hello JHvL,
As I understand it your iPhone isn't able to connect to your bluetooth Apple keyboard after updating to iOS 8.2 even after a restart. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you resolve that issue, named:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Startup key combinations with bluetooth keyboard?

In Lion, accessing the recovery partition entails holding down the command-R key combination at startup. Selecting a startup disk and starting up in Safe Boot mode also require holding key combinations at startup.
But under Lion and a bluetooth keyboard, none of these key combinations work. A wired keyboard works fine, but I no longer have one.
A friend who downloaded and installed Lion today just called and asked how he can do this with HIS bluetooth keyboard, so this seems to be a general concern.
Any tips? Thanks!

Some PC keyboards may map it to the Windows key, but on most it should be ALT.

Multiple key press's with Bluetooth Keyboard

I'm ready to update my mac to a new G5 imac and fancy getting the wireless bluetooth keyboard and mouse with it.
I have one question, has anyone experienced problems when holding down multiple keys on the keyboard and moving the mouse all at once (Using illustrator)?
In my office I have the misfortune of having to use a PC, I have had a number of wireless keyboard and mouse combos, all of them when using Illustrator and photoshop can not handle multiple key press's and mouse movement.
ie if I'm duplicating an object by dragging a copy of it across the screen, on the PC it will work but it always "releases" after a couple of seconds and drops the copy in the where I don't want it which gets very frustrating (this only happens with wireless).
As I do a lot of work at home, I hoping this wont be the case with the mac's bluetooth K & M.
thanks
Russell

The shift key works just fine on my Bluetooth keyboard. So I would imagine this is an issue with your keyboard.

Boot options with Bluetooth keyboard

I have an Intel iMac that came with a bluetooth keyboard and mouse. There are a variety of options that can be used when you boot the Mac, such as hold down the C key to boot from a CD/DVD, hold down the option key to choose the boot drive, etc. When you have a BT keyboard, it doesn't connect until it is booted. How do you get the iMac to recognize, say, the Option key?

Here's the apple article on the subject:

I HAVE JUST BOUGHT A MAC MINI WITH BLUETOOTH KEYBOARD AND ON SCREEN ALL IM GETTING IS A PIC SHOWING TO SWITCH ON KEYBOARD AND ANOTHER THAT SHOWS A SWITCH ON COMPUTER. I CANT SEE A SWITCH ON THE MINI.

I have just bought a mac mini and am trying to set up. The unit is asking me to swith on bluetooth keyboard via pic 1 then pic 2 shows another switch.
I can't see this switch. can anyone help before i launch this thing out the window!

Symptoms
When using Setup Assistant to configure your Mac mini or iMac for the first time, the Bluetooth keyboard may have difficulty pairing.
Resolution
Use a wired keyboard to configure the Mac mini or iMac with the Setup Assistant. If a wired keyboard is not available, follow these steps:
Press and hold the Power button until the computer turns off.
Press the Power button to start the computer.
When a language selection appears, press and hold the power key on the Bluetooth keyboard so that the green light is flashing (discoverable mode).
Use the mouse to click the language you would like.
A code should appear on the screen. Enter the code on the Bluetooth keyboard and press Return. Note: No visible feedback appears on the screen while you enter the code.
The computer and the wireless keyboard should now be paired.
