Iphone keyboard problem

Hello
IPhone 4 was bought about 2 months and when I press the key on the phone, key in a different sound that way. is a key as the problem and I can feel my finger. IPhone 3 using the same thing had happened to me. and 1 month later, the key was completely unusable. For this case, I would like to send my phone service. Where can I send and how to fix this problem.

Me too. When the keyboard is active in the vertical position, all the key touches on the bottom row register as key touches on the row above. When I touch space, I get x, c, v, b or n. This also happens in the bottom tool bar of various apps. NetNewsWire's Mark All as Read button registers a touch for the entry at the bottom of the screen, and I can't switch between Search and Directions in the maps app. The bottom toolbar of Mail works perfectly fine, as does the bottom row of the home screen.
I noticed this after updating to 2.0.1. I sure wish I could roll back to 1.1.4, while I wait 32 hours for the next available Genius Bar appointment.

  • IPhone keyboard problems

    The lowest line of keys on my iPhone keyboard won't work. It works just fine when opening apps or playing music but when you go to use the actual keyboard part it won't let me type numbers or use the space bar. How can I fix this?

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore.  Try them.

  • Keyboard problems out of the box with iPhone 3g

    My iPhone 3g is showing strange keyboard behavior, typically starts when launching the SMS app.
    The "P" and Backspace keys, the keys on the rightmost part of the touch area, are non-responsive. The issue will correct itself after 15 mins or so, but it's become very annoying.
    I've made sure I'm not touching any other part of the screen as a possible cause. Showed it to and had three other iPhone users see what I see and they all agree it seems like a bug, just to confirm it's not me.
    Took it to the Apple Store and of course the iPhone behaves when showing it to the Genius.
    Anyone else experienced keyboard problems with 2.0 firmware?

    Well, I took my 16GB iPhone 3g (white) back to the Apple Store today and the Genius looked it over -- said that's the first keyboard problem he's seen come in and mentioned that it was strange the "dead zone" on the touch screen was vertical since, according to him, most "dead zones" tend to be horizontal areas. He said the touch screen matrix is laid out in three horizontal bands on the screens.
    Bottom line: he gave me a new working iPhone 3g.
    He did mention that all returned iPhone 3g's are being sent directly back to the iPhone 3g engineering team for full "autopsies", not just sent back to factory for refurb. He said they want to fully diagnose and understand what defects are out there so as to solve the root cause moving forward.

  • Iphone 4 problems after 7.0.2 update--Especially with keyboard entries

    I am having serious iphone 4 problems after installing the 7.0.2 update.  Mostly it is with use of the keyboard.  Each key stroke takes about 8 seconds to show. It is truly disabling.  Apparently many others have had various problems.  The one thing the Apple Tech would tell me was that 7.0.2 cannot be uninstalled.  I have restarted & reset. Settings shows I have more that 20 free GB of space, though I don't know if that's important.
    Sure would appreciate help!  Thank you!

    settings - general - reset - reset network settings.
    also turn off automatic app updated...

  • Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls

    Hello! Ever since I upgraded my iPhone 5s to IOS 7.1, I am unable to access the iPhone Keyboard if I access contacts using the recent calls tab. I am also unable to access the keyboard if I want to search for a contact as long as I went through the recent calls tab. Has anyone a fix for this problem? If you want to try it out, do the following?
    Dial a number from your iPhone Keypad. After cutting the call, try to save the number you just dialled to your contacts by choosing the new contact option. You will see that you will not be able to key in the name of your new contact.

    Works fine for me.
    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Migrated User Account Keyboard Problem AFTER Login

    I have a brand-new MacBookPro (with multi-touch trackpad) that came with Leopard preinstalled. When I first started up the new computer, I set up a new administrator user account first. Then I used Migration Assistant to migrate my primary user account from my PowerBook G4, which is running the latest version of Tiger. I can log into my old user account with the same password I have always used, and everything looks fine--my old desktop is there, my Mail, iCal and iTunes settings all look great, etc.--but I can't use the keyboard. I can use the mouse to click on menus; the keys for the volume and backlight controls work, and some of the keys on the right side of the keyboard work (which seems particularly weird), but I can't do anything else with the keyboard. When I log out of the account and try to go back to the new admin account, the keyboard no longer works at all until I reboot. If I go directly into the new admin account, the keyboard is fine; it only starts locking up AFTER I log into my old user account. I have not had any keyboard problems with any other user accounts that I have created from scratch on the MacBookPro, nor have I had problems with the other user accounts I migrated from the PowerBook. After consulting with an Apple rep on the phone, I have tried the following things:
    1. deleting my migrated keychain file on the problem user account and letting it make a new login keychain;
    2. deleting the original default keychain on the PowerBook and re-running the Migration Assistant;
    3. deleting the problem user on the MacBookPro using the option of creating a disk image, and then creating an empty file in the Users folder with the same name as the problem user account and then dragging the files from the disk image into the folder, and then creating a new version of the user account with the same name, password, etc.;
    4. running Disk Utility to fix permissions (multiple times);
    5. I have completely erased and reinstalled the system on the MacBookPro using the install DVDs twice. The first time, I ran Migration Assistant immediately after the "Welcome," and the second time I set up a new administrator account first and then ran Migration Assistant.
    6. I have also tried the steps outlined in this article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306840.
    7. I have tried moving my user files over by hand but then I have a ton of permission problems and I was having trouble getting my Mail settings/mailboxes to move over properly. I've spent hours and hours on this.
    I have NEVER had so much trouble upgrading to a new computer or a new OS in all the years I've owned Macs! What am I missing???

    Well...I'm not sure which of the following fixed my problem, but once I realized it was something to do with the numeric keypad keys, I went into both the Keyboard & Mouse preferences and the Universal Access preferences and I made sure that I set everything back to the default settings. I suspect that going to Keyboard&Mouse-->Keyboard Shortcuts and clicking on "Restore Defaults" is what did the trick. So far, so good. I hope this helps somebody else; I couldn't find anything else anywhere about this somewhat quirky problem.

  • IPhone keyboard in Landscape Mode

    Hey,
    Is any one else having the same issue ? Any solution is appreciated. When I use my iPhone keyboard in landscape mode (application - gmail) some of the letters in the keyboard don't pop-up. The keyboard inputs the letters in the mail however the on-screen prompt for a key being pressed (letters jumping up) does not happen. It happens for different letters each time. I have seen 'q' key do that .... r some times etc. It is not just the first row of letters too. I have seen other letters.
    I reset the phone, restored it and even got a warranty exchange. I still have this issue. Any ideas ?
    Peace...

  • HELP! Keyboard problems

    HELP!
    I have tried all sorts of things, like:
    - removed syst prefs to desktop then restarted
    - un-done, re-done, re-booted various options in International and Keyboard & Mouse
    - run disk utility, both from startup CD AND in target disk mode
    - ran permission smasher
    - swapped out different keyboards and/or mice
    ...but these are my keyboard problem symptoms:
    - numeric keypad not working
    - the shift key (for caps & shift characters) not working&
    - commands (i.e., "Select All") not working
    ...the keyboard does not work in any native Mac appl (e.g., Mail, Safari, TextEdit).
    The only time my keyboard will work correctly is when I create a test new user and log-in. So it's just for me as user.
    Also, oddly enough, keyboard prefs do not show up anywhere.
    Anyplace where I should see something, such as
    Library>preferences - there should be a file com.apple.keyboardtype.plist --- there is no file in any of the folders anywhere.
    All of a sudden the keyboard stopped working, but the mouse attached to it still works. I have no clue what to do to fix it and my AppleCare has ran out.
    Other things I have noticed and tried:
    - running tech tool
    - repairing permissions
    - switching usb ports for the keyboard from the back of the display
    - removing the mouse from the back of the keyboard
    - unplugging everything but the keyboard and mouse
    ...any ideas???

    Hi, DR -
    The numeric keypad not working sounds like MouseKeys became enabled in the Universal Access part of System Preferences.
    The Shift key and Command keys not working sounds like Sticky Keys became enabled in the Universal Access part of System Preferences.
    Check the Universal Access control pane in System Preferences - if those features are checkmarked, try unchecking them.

  • Is there a workaround for iPhone keyboard?

    I absolutely, absolutely hate it. But I love everything else. What am I to do? Go back to Blackberry like so many others who are fed up with the iPhone keyboard? I can't go that far. So I'm hoping someone can direct me to something that makes this keyboard less frustrating. In 25 years of using Apple products, it is the only thing they produce that makes me swear on a regular basis.

    wow. I honestly love the keyboard that apple provides. so much easier to type on. Sure people who uses the iphone for the first time may not be used to it the first time and can take a while to get used to, especially if you used the black berry keyboards. IMO...I can't stand any phsyical keyboard on mine. I type faster on my iphone then a phone with a phsyical keyboard.

    Hi Rob,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your running into an issue with the keyboard on your MacBook Pro. The article linked below provides suggestions that will resolve most keyboard issues like the one you described.
    OS X Mavericks: If keys on your keyboard don’t work
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13809
    If other keys don’t work
    You may have accidentally set an option that changes how your keyboard operates.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Dictation & Speech, then click “Text to Speech.” If “Speak selected text when the key is pressed” is selected, deselect it or click Change Key to select another key.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, then click Keyboard. Make sure Slow Keys is turned off. If Slow Keys is on, you must hold down a key longer than usual before it’s recognized.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, then click Mouse & Trackpad. Make sure Mouse Keys is off. If Mouse Keys is on, pressing keys in the numeric keypad moves the pointer instead of entering numbers.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Keyboard, then click Input Sources. Select “Show Input menu in menu bar.” Open the Input menu and make sure the correct keyboard layout is selected. To see the keyboard layout, click Keyboard, then choose “Show Keyboard & Character Viewers in menu bar.”
    I hope this helps.

  • I m trying to send a email and sms alert using php and it works fine on all systems except on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india. plz help

    I m trying to send a email and sms alert to people and it works fine on all systems expect on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india.
    the code i m using is right below,plz have a look and not into the problem as problem is a bit strange.
    $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" ;
                $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"UTF-8\"\n";
                $headers .= "X-Priority: 1 (Highest)\n";
                $headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High\n";
                $headers .= "Importance: High\n";
                // Additional headers
                $headers .= 'From: Rakesh <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
                foreach($disemail as $email)

    $headers .= "Content-Type:text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n  format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable";

  • Keyboard problems with Enter, delete, backspace, and right/left arrows

    In some applications, such as Yahoo and this message block right now !!, when composing a message, the arrow keys and delete, backspace keys become non responsive. Various ones will work on a random basis.
    I am getting double "carriage returns" also. Maybe this is why in Omegle when I press ENTER, it will not post a chat message; it will bring up a scroll box and for me to post the comment, I have to use the mouse to click ENTER.
    I have changed batteries in my keyboard, uninstalled /reinstalled Firefox. I have checked the above websites in Chrome and other browsers, and there are no problems.
    This has happened before, I don't recall what the solution was or if it just went away.'''
