IPad keyboard question.

can I force my ipad keyboard to open? I run a program that requires an 'enter' command, in a non 'type-defined' area of the page.
Many thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks Sergio, Thanks Fred.
Fred, nothing dodgy going on I assure you
It's my work mail program - Novell WebAccess. On my MacBook I can highlight an email and then hit enter to open it, or alternatively double tap.
On the iPad I can highlight the email with a single tap, but not being text-defined (apparently) means that no keyboard shows. Double tapping only zooms in and out......
I have to say I don't know the Novell software very well, and so I'll check this also, but I can't see anything in the Novell settings to allow me to open email in a different way.
Any thoughts?
Sergio, you're right that a physical keyboard would no doubt sort it, but I have my laptop for that. It's the sheer portability of the iPad that I was sold on.

    Lots of WIFI needs a username and password to get access. I guess you're lucky and yours is set up unsecured.
    Normal secured WiFi requires only a password to get access. The password is used to encrypt traffic between your device and the WiFi access point. If whatever you are using requires a username as well then it is not simply normal secured WiFi. It might be a subscription WiFi service like GOGO, ATT, etc., or a service with authentication, i.e., college campus, etc. To help you out we need to know what you are using and what connection dialog you are being presented with. You don't have exactly the same problem as the original poster. He is having a problem entering a password into the password dialog that iOS presents when one tries to connect to a normal secured WiFi network. Could you clarify exactly which WiFi service you are using.

  • Lightning to 30-pin Adapter works great with iPad Keyboard Dock

    In case anyone was wondering, the Lightnng to 30-pin Adapter works great with the original iPad Keyboard Dock and an iPhone 5. In fact it is better than the 4S was, as that tended to pop out. The Lightning adapter stays in place, and there is plenty of support in the back plastic to keep the iPhone in place, with any tiny stress happening at the Dock connector end: the Lightning connector itself seems very solid indeed. All the keys work, and charging is fine.
    (In answer to the implicit question: my employer blocks email at work on its systems, and it's convenient to have the keyboard hold the phone in place, and also charge it, which is the problem with the Bluetooth keyboard.)

    Might be a question better asked of the manufacturer of the iHome device.

  • My remote iPad keyboard stopped working

    My remote iPad  keyboard stopped working

    Any update?
    Apple Support always say reboot your computer, unplug the keyboard, the keys are broken, ... But I bought 2 of these keyboards and they have the same frustrating problem. When you unplug them and plug them back they STOP working sometimes for long time or sometimes you have to hit the keys for a while to get the keyboard back.
    Since about a year I just let my mb air powered on with my keyboard because I need my keyboard to work. (and it's hugely frustrating to start your day trying to get your keyboard working)
    I just bough a mb pro late 2013 and the keyboard do not work at all.
    All the best,

  • BUG - client-side iPad keyboard in MRD 8.1.5 is mis-mapped for remote VMware Player console on Windows 8.1 Pro

    Client system: iPad 4 running iOS 8.1.1
    Client language/locale: US English
    Client app: MRD 8.1.5
    Server system: 64-bit Windows 8.1 Pro
    Server language/locale: US English
    Problem: client-side keyboard in MRD 8.1.5 does not work properly within VMware Player 6 console only
    When interacting with VMs through the VMware Player 6 console app on the remote Windows 8.1 host, the client-side iPad keyboard for MRD 8.1.5 is not properly mapped. Letter keys and the top-row number keys send function keys or non-standard key scan codes
    that aren't used by traditional PC keyboards. The spacebar sends the D key, and some keys send nothing at all. Many other keys work properly, including the client-side numeric keypad, and uppercase letters sent by using the Shift key (but not the iPad up-arrow
    shift key). The only way to send the proper keystrokes to VMware Player from MRD 8.1.5 is to not use the client-side iPad keyboard and instead switch to the on-screen keyboard provided by the remote Windows server.
    This problem only occurs within the VMware Player console app, and only with RDP connections that use the MRD 8.1.5 client on iOS. I do not encounter the problem with other iOS RD clients such as iFreeRDP by Thinstuff or Pocket Cloud Remote Desktop by Wyse.
    Steps to reproduce:
    Connect to Windows 8.1 Pro system from the MRD 8.1.5 client for iOS 8.1.1
    Using the client-side iPad keyboard within MRD 8.1.5, bring up the Run dialog by typing Windows-R
    Launch Notepad by typing notepad.exe in the Run dialog and pressing Enter on the client-side iPad keyboard
    Type some sample text in Notepad until you're confident that the client-side iPad keyboard is functioning properly
    Launch VMware Player 6 and start up a VM (mine was Windows Server 2008)
    Open the sign-on prompt in the VM by sending Ctrl-Alt-Ins from the client-side keyboard or by pressing the Ctrl-Alt-Del icon in VMware Player
    Touch or click in the password field in the VM to ensure it has keyboard focus
    Using the client-side keyboard, try to type letters or numbers in the password field, and notice that dots generally do not appear for most keypresses
    Switch to the server-side on-screen keyboard and delete the contents of the password field if it is not already empty
    Use the server-side on-screen keyboard to sign on to the VM
    Inside the VM, open Notepad or some other text editor
    Enter text into the editor from both the client-side and server-side keyboards to verify that only the server-side keyboard is functioning properly within the VM
    This issue is the only problem I'm having with MRD for iOS, and I hope it is resolved soon.
    Thanks,
    Fred

  • Ipad Keyboard (one with docking station attached to keyboard)

    I had just recently purchased the Ipad keyboard, the one with the docking station attached to the keyboard. The problem is I use it in my car a lot and find it difficult to use. Is there anything 3rd party that will allow me to connect a cable to the ipad and then one to the keyboard so that I can type without the Ipad being in the docking station. It would be so much easier to use. Additionally I have to remove my Ipad from it's case to use it as well and risk damaging it when it's not in a case. Any feedback and assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time everyone.

    Yes there is. Check it out here.

  • Typing Chinese characters on iPad keyboard

    How can I type Chinese using the iPad keyboard and how to switch between English and Chinese?

    I'm referring the Keyboard dock, not the built-in keyboard on iPad.
    You still need to use the Settings to select the Chinese keyboard layout. There is a separate section for hardware keyboards, where you can further choose us, french, german (depending on whether your physical keyboard is qwerty, azerty, or qwertz).
    Are you having some problem after doing that? Are you familiar with how normal pinyin input works?

  • Write Danish on english ipad keyboard

    Hi guys
    I'm thinking about buying an ipad and a clamcase. Right now I can't get the case with a Danish layout (scandinavian).
    This is the case
    http://clamcase.com/
    Is it possible to make shortcut keys on a ipad keyboard (US layout) like on a MacBook Pro. My sister and her american bought macbook air, presses the Alt key and A, and she gets Å.
    I think that's hos it works, I can't really remember, but I hope you get the point.
    I need to write a lot in both in Danish and English for work, so the case is pretty useless if I can't make character shortcuts.
    But I love the design of that case.
    Thanks

    I'm thinking of an external keyboard like a blutooth keyboard with no Æ, Ø or Å.
    Any standard external bluetooth keyboard will work just like your sister's MacBook Pro and make accented characters via the option/alt shortcuts.  This is determined by the software inside the iPad.
    Spellcheck would be more complicated, however, as that is determined by the iPad's keyboard.  So you can type the Danish characters, but spellcheck will be for English, so you would want to turn it off probably.  If you switch to the Danish internal keyboard to get the right spellcheck, I think your hardware keyboard may behave like a Danish layout (with results different than what is printed on the keys).
