Onscreen keyboard is all !!!! In some apps

is anyone having problems with their onscreen keyboard? In some apps all of the etters are replaced with ! so its guesswork to try and type anything. The numbers and emoticons are ok.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds).
No data will be lost.

  • Some apps dont syncronize although up to date software

    hi all,
    recently some apps dont sync. the error message says that the iphone software is not up to date although it is.
    Has anybody had similar problemsv or solved that problem yet?

    My iphone is on iOS 4.2.1, wich is the up to date software. And yes i looked it up these apps need 4.3.
    Could it be that my phone is too old to update on iOS 5.1.1?
    Do you have an idea how i can update my phone?
    Thanks in advance

  • Working with the MS Word iPad and other office apps: Onscreen keyboard will not minimize

    With Microsoft's announcement today of allowing limited editing capabilities in their mobile apps, I installed the updates on my iPad.  So far, everything works great...with one exception:  The onboard keyboard will not get out of the way...won't
    minimize.
    I have last year's iPad Air and was trying to use my Bluetooth keyboard with each of the MS Office IOS apps.  Consistently, across all of these apps, the keyboard would stay on the screen and the key for minimizing the keyboard had no affect, even though
    my Bluetooth keyboard was linked and working.  Any other app I use automatically removes the onscreen keyboard when the Bluetooth keyboard is detected.
    This does make the applications difficult and not much fun to use.
    Any thoughts?  Anybody else notice the same issue?
    My office has begun deploying Office 2013/365 and I know we'll have some users on iPads and other tablets, so I'm real interested in correcting this if at all possible.

  • No keyboard rotation in some apps

    Hello,
    in some apps (in landscape modus), when I want to give in some text, the keyboard will be opened into portrait mode.
    So i have to rotate the iPhone, then I give in my text, and after sending text, I have to rotate back to landscape modus.
    Happens onto iPhone 4, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6 plus, iPad mini and iPad Air after updating to iOS 8 - 8.02.
    For example into this App you can see it:

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • Some apps do not rotate keyboard to landscape

    I purchased a used iPhone 4 and reseted it to defaults.
    All is fine but sometimes keyboard does not rotate to landscape.
    Double clicked button and checked autorotate is unlocked.
    These are some apps that don't rotate keyboard:
    Reminder
    Search Contacts
    Search Apple Store
    Settings text
    Facebook
    These do rotate:
    Calendar
    Evernote
    Messages
    Mailbox
    Is that something regular? Could it be changed?
    Thank you

    Also, after I added a second user, it required me to enter my password in Dvorak. This is a new iMac 24 onto which I transfered files from an iMac 20 that once used Dvoark as its primary input format. However, that computer was switched to the US format long before the new iMac 24 was purchased.
    A strange coincidence is that the iMac 20 also went through a period where the second user account required Dvorak format for the password even though that user account only used US format. Any ideas?
    Thanks for the help.

    Are you sure you have a 4g/3g iPod?   If you don't have a camera, it's definitely not 4G.  If it has no camera and is 8 or 16 Gb it is a 2G and can't go beyond 4.2.1.

    (I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!)   I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

  • By default, on a mac keyboard F3 lets you see all the open apps and the such. However, I changed it so that I use those keys for keyboard shortcuts; But i'd like the normal F3 key to still work without me having to press FN.

    rajlego,
    in the Keyboard pane of System Preferences, select the Shortcuts tab, and then select Mission Control on the left-hand side. On the right-hand side, make sure that the Mission Control checkbox is checked, double-click on its current key combination (by default “^↑”) so that the key combination is highlighted, and then press the F3 button — that will set its shortcut to be F3. You can now press F3 to bring up Mission Control without needing to also press the Fn button.

  • HT203421 I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening

    I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with.  This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

  • Hi, Since updating to IOS 6, Almost all of my games on ipad 2 have lost their audio completely. Movies and some apps are fine but Fifa 13, Tiger woods, Contract killer, GTA, all of which werent cheap, no longer have sound. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    No audio on very popular games since IOS 6 Update on my ipad. Anyone else had same issue or a workaround?

  • Keyboard shortcut Command-~ DOES NOT WORK in/on some apps/machines

    It seems that in Mac OS 10.6.2 the keyboard shortcut "Command-~" ( a.k.a.
    "⌘-~" or "Command-tilde") is quite fickle. It is used in most apps to
    switch between open windows within an application. It was available in OS
    10.5 in Safari, Microsoft Office (including Entourage), and most other apps
    with the capacity to open multiple windows simultaneously. But in OS 10.6.2
    this shortcut is available in Safari on my 2.16 GHz Core2Duo 20" iMac but
    NOT on my 2.4 GHz Core2Duo Unibody 13" MacBook; it's available in Entourage
    on my MacBook but NOT on my iMac. So it's available on some apps and some
    machines but not on others, there's no rhyme or reason to it, and it's not
    consistent between like machines and apps, which makes me think that there's
    a system-wide preference or command that could turn this on and off. I
    thought perhaps it was controlled by a preference in certain apps, but I
    have found no such prefs. Is there a way to control this - in other words,
    to make it available where it currently is not? Or is there a command to
    make it universally available on any 10.6 machine (my preferred solution)?
    Thanks for any help offered.

    Not a reply to this specific question, just a quasi-relevant comment that might help some folks.
    In Leopard, and with (for example) English and Russian chosen in System Prefs under "Language" and the keyboard shortcut set to command+space, I would always see the flag change in the menu bar as soon as command+space were chosen. Now, under Snow Leopard, hitting command+space seems not to make the change. But it does make the change, you just need to take your fingers off the keys first, then the flag will change.
