Messages and bluetooth keyboard send button?

Is there any solution out there to be able to hit the send button on an iPad with the wireless bluetooth keyboard?

I just came up with a solution to this problem that is cheap, and in my case free. I went to the office supply cabinet and fished out the big kind of clip. (http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/963439/OIC-Large-Binder-Clips-2-Wide/?cm_c at=2000000351) The black kind with the wings/handles that flip down. Turned the keyboard off first, since the clip will depress two keys, and clipped the clip around the round part of the keyboard affording a little over hang so nothing can easily depress the power button.

HT4111 how to send a message using bluetooth keyboard in imessage

is there any way to send a message in iMessage from my iPad mini using the bluetooth keyboard?

I've got it connected and everything, but I want to know how I actually send the written txt without tapping "send" on the iPad. Is there any way to do it from the keyboard? Hitting "enter" just takes the cursor down to the next line.

Every now and then my SEND button for texts is greyed out and unfunctional

I'll be texting someone just fine then suddenly the SEND button freezes up and doesn't allow me to continue the conversation.
Anyone else?
Thanks

Hey! I get the same problem. I'm so happy I found someone like you, cuz no one at Rogers (my carrier) or Apple knows what's going on. I've recently tried going to "Settings" "Messages" and turning OFF "Show Subject Field". I do not yet know if this will solve our problem which is constantly frustrating, but I saw this in a discussion forum so I've just tried this. Let's keep each other posted on this intermittent issue okay? I get so bugged when I'm texting back & forth & suddenly for no reason the "send" button goes gray & simply won't allow me to continue no matter if I turn the phone off/on or whatever or even delete that string of texts & begin again to same person, (who's now been waiting too long for my reply LOL) Cheers, Steve. iPhone (647) 300-9222 Toronto.

IPad and Bluetooth Keyboard

My iPad no longer responds generally to the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard. I have changed the batteries, disconnected and reconnected via Bluetooth, restarted the iPad, and even tested the Keyboard on the MacBook Pro, with which it works fine. However, on the iPad I am only able to type the connection code for Bluetooth, and use the 'Brightness' and Volume buttons. Nothing else works. I cannot type after it has been connected. Any suggestions?

1. Does anyone know if the keyboard dock comes apart so that you can use the dock stand alone?
It doesn't look like it in the pictures.
2. If the answer to question #1 is NO, does anyone know if you can use the non-keyboard dock without it being hooked to AC power?
You should be able to but we'll know for sure in March. You could also just buy a case that doubles as a stand.

ICloud email won't send (it tries to send and then freezes, send button grayed out)

I can recieve email just fine. I can draft an email just fine. But it won't send. When I hit the send button, the email window goes away and a message box appears and disappears so fast I can't read it. The email window reapears with the "send" button grayed out. Once this happens, I can't close the email window. I have to quit mail. When I open mail back up, the email will still be there and I can close it. The send button is no longer grayed out, but if I hit send, the same thing happens (i.e., screen flashes and the send button is grayed out).
I've tried deleting the acouunt and reforming it. Didn't help. I checked to see that my outgoing server is "iCloud" and that it send on port 993 and the SSL check box is checked.
Any ideas?

I'm having the exact same problem on one of my Macs but no the other.
Did you ever get this resolved?

Bluetooth Keyboard - Power Button 'Cover'???

I picked up the bluetooth keyboard for my iPad and am very pleased at how well it works... My only issue is the power forces the on-screen keyboard off-screen...
When I put it into my bag I find at times the power button is pressed and it turns the keyboard back on... I'm looking for some type of a power switch cover... Anybody have any ideas??? I'm hoping to find something a little better than a taped piece of cardboard...

I just came up with a solution to this problem that is cheap, and in my case free. I went to the office supply cabinet and fished out the big kind of clip. (http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/963439/OIC-Large-Binder-Clips-2-Wide/?cm_c at=2000000351) The black kind with the wings/handles that flip down.

Mac Mini first boot and bluetooth keyboard not recognised

Hi Apple Support Community-
I have just purchased a brand new Mac Mini and App Wireless Keyboard. Unfortunately upon first boot, the Mac Mini is requesting I connect my bluetooth keyboard by switching it on, however even though the green light flashes, after the 5 second startup acknowledgement, there is no response from the Mac Mini.
To confirm the keyboard is working, I have successfully paired it with my MacBook. I do not have a USB Keyboard or Mouse and without purchasing additional hardware, do you have any suggestions to work around this problem?
Thanks, Julian

Hi Julian,
Sometime a Mac can't pickup the connection of a bluetooth keyboard or mouse is normal. Whatever your Mac is brand new or not.
I will do the following if the brand new Mac can't pickup the bluetooth connection, but make sure the bluetooth keyboard and mouse is not yet paired with other computer, that means you have to un-pair the keyboard and mouse from your MacBook before you perform the follow step:
- Switch off the Mac
- Switch off the Keyboard and Mouse which not yet paired with other computer, remove its battery, and re-install the battery after 10 seconds
- Switch on the Keyboard and Mouse first, make sure both devices have a green light flashes (the light flashed at intervals, like a pulse **...**...sorry my poor English), that means the devices is discoverable.
- Switch on the Mac asap if all the bluetooth keyboard and mouse is ready, and let the Mac pair both device (according the screen instruction)
If the method still doesn't work, the worst case is: i'm afraid you have to connect wired keyboard and mouse to finish the Setup Assistant, and pair both bluetooth devices by Bluetooth Preferences. Once both bluetooth devices connected, disconnect wired keyboard and mouse.

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:
iOS: Troubleshooting Bluetooth connections
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling
