Keyboard won't react when in landscape mode on SMS?

Hi There.
I updated my 5S to the IOS8.
After that, I had problems when writing an SMS. Sometimes (almost every time) the keyboard doesn’t react to anything when turning to landscape mode. I then have to turn the phone upright, and the down to landscape again. The screen then goes black, and I can press the home-button to see the screen again.
I actually thought this was a bug in IOS8 since it appeared after the update.
Now I bought the IPhone 6. And I set that up with the complete backup from my 5S. I then updated to IOS 8.0.2, and the problem is also on my IP6
I can’t find anyone else with this problem, so what can I do now?
Is the only solution to reset the IP6 to factory default, and install sms, and contacts via iCloud?
But then I have to install all the apps manually?
I have a lot of apps with personal settings, and different mail accounts. I really don’t want to do all this.
Anyone have a solution?
Kind regards.

Same issue here. Just did the download now I'll hit the alpha key on the screen and it does not register. Only happens in landscape mode. Only tried it on imessage and SMS, did not try email yet.
- iPhone 6 w/ 128GB
- Purchased directly from an AT&T Store, in US
- iOS 8.0.2 (12A405)
- Native iOS Keyboard
- No other keyboard app installed or previously installed
- Predictive typing activated

    No, but try terminating and restarting Safari:
    1. Press the Home button
    2. Double click the Home button to bring up the "Recent Apps" tray.
    3. Touch and hold on the Safari icon in the "Recent Apps" tray until a "-" appears.
    4. Touch the "-" to terminate Safari.
    5. Restart Safari and see if your Bookmarks are back.

  • Is there a way to hide the bookmarks bar in iOS 8 on the iPad? It takes up a large part of the screen when in landscape mode

    Since I upgraded to iOS8, my iPad screen permanently shows the bookmarks bar down the left. This means I can only use about ⅔ of the screen when in landscape mode. Is there something I am missing which allows me to hide/show the bookmarks bar? Thanks

    TThank you so much! I felt it must be something straightforward.

  • I have been experiencing periodic loss of touch screen response with my iPhone 6 when in landscape mode. Flipping to portrait then back to landscape usually corrects it, but at times I need to close and reenter the app.

  • Reset When Using Landscape Mode

    Has anyone else experienced resets while viewing Safari in landscape mode? Resets back to home screen. Same thing happens with some of the appssuch as eBay, not in landscape mode.

    Howdy Scott,
    If I understand correctly the left side of the keyboard when you have it showing stops responding in landscape mode until you rotate it to portrait, then back to landscape. Otherwise the left side of the screen works fine outside of the keyboard. From what I gather, this would indicate to me a software issue, so I would start by quitting all the running apps on the device:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it. 
    When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:
    iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
    If the issue persists, backup your device to iTunes and then restore it as a new device and verify that it works. 
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If it does, then restore your backup to either verify it still works and the software just needed reinstalled, or isolate the issue to the backup file itself.

  • Control center not working on iPhone 6 plus when in landscape mode

    I has a iphone 5 before it , and there's no problem with the control center, now with this expensive iPhone 6 plus , the control is not working when the phone is in landscape mode , when the screen tapped repeatedly, I can only see the little tab of the control center but I can't able to bring it up.
    Anyone has this problem?

    Hello torontonightowl,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For some initial troubleshooting on this issue where you're unable to open the control center on your iPhone, please first restart your iPhone, and if the issue persists then reset the iPhone.
    Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • My microphone won't work when in Speaker mode, but will when in regular mode. What is up with that?

    My iPhone's microphone will not work in the Speaker mode, but will when in Regular mode. The microphone works even when in bluetooth mode. This was sudden and no updates have been made recently, but it is up to date with the software.

    I took it to the apple store and it was determined to be a mechanical problem. Since I had apple care, they replaced the phone.

  • A key on keyboard won't work when cold

    When my MacBook Pro is cold, the "a" key won't respond.  After the computer warms up, I have no further problems.  Any suggestions?

    Just how cold? Your MBP has the following temperature guidelines:
    Operating temperature: 50° to 95° F (10° to 35° C)
    Storage temperature: –13° to 113° F (–24° to 45° C)
    Are you operating in an enviornment below 50ºF/10ºC?

  • Yoga 2-11 Onscreen Keyboard won't stay up when in tablet mode

    I have seen many topics about the onscreen keyboard not staying on when in tablet mode but most of it from 2013. I am having this problem and I cannot find a solution. I have to go to laptop mode to sign in and then go back to tablet mode. The keyboard pops up but as soon as it does it goes away.  What is the fix? Yoga 2-11 purchased Dec 2014 from Best Buy.

    Thank you for your swift suggestion! I think it has worked I will monitor it for a couple of days
