Why won't my keyboard show up?

My keyboard shows pretty much everywhere except on the search menu that's all the way to the left. It is blank and I can press letters but the keyboard is not there so it's hard knowing what your typing. I've had this problem for 2 days now and it still persists.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

So there are no apps at all on your home screens? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you don't see anything after that, take a look at all of your home screens and folders to see if something is hidden. It that doesn't work, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easilly down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Why won't Firefox automatically show new Hotmail emails or easily down load attachments when it was working a week ago?

Hotmail has been having a few hiccups lately I'm afraid.
If you don't see any emails when you log in, or nothing appears after some time, click in the middle of the grey bar on the left which has the word "'''Inbox'''" in it. This usually causes them to magically appear for some strange reason.
I've read on on a few blogs that Microsoft is working on the problem, but don't hold your breath.<br><br>

Could you provide more detail on what you are doing? Using Mail? Does the keyboard appear when you touch the new Mail icon?
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 seconds).

HT203200 Question: why won't one specific show download?

Hi,
When I was downloading 8 different purchased TV shows, all episodes of seasons I've purchased, one,5th on the list wouldn't download sighting err=8003. I retried many times with the same result. All the others downloaded before and after. Help?
Hope someone has the answer!
Thanks,
Melissa Q

So I received the 30G Video IPod for Xmas. Like it a
lot. I have the most current version of ITunes. I
purchased two tv shows and one music video on ITunes.
I synced the iPod. Had sync all movies selected.
It synced the TV shows, synced a few other movies
that came with albums (Blue Orchid by White Stripes
Video for example). BUT the music video I had just
purchased won't sync. I tried a few tricks, created
a playlist, etc.. but the movie section wouldn't
even see the playlist. I tried putting the video in
a music playlist but it wouldn't sync there either.
How do I set up Movie Playlists so that they are
recognized by ITunes? Any idea why that vid won't
sync?
Thanks!
I have been having a similar issue with my TV shows. For example, I have the entire 2nd season of Lost and iTunes is syncing the episodes in whatever order it "feels like" {for lack of a better term} usually skipping large portions of the episodes which I had not watched, I even confirmed that the play counts were 0 and that I was syncing the most recent 5 unwatched episodes and it didn't work. It also did this with Beavis and Butt-head as well. What I ended up having to do is setting up the iPod to sync only checked items and then manually checking and unchecking the items I wanted and did not want to sync, and this fixed the issue.
Hope this helps.

Why won't my Flash show up on some browsers?

I have Flash CS3 and have designed a Flash Page and published
in for Flash Player ver 9. When I went to use one of the "cheapee"
computers at my school, however, the Flash part of my page did NOT
show up. Just a little red X (this is IE" Thinking that Flash just
wasn't installed, I went to another site that I knew had Flash, but
boom...their Flash movie DID show up.
I right-clicked on their Flash movie and got "About Adobe
Flash Player 6"
AH HAH!! This cheap school computer only has Flash Player 6.
That's fine, I hadn't used any advanced features in my movie so I
changed my publish settings to version SIX. Published and uploaded
my movie.
Still won't show up.
Any ideas why?

Exactly. I want to transfer apps from my MacBook Pro to my
iPhone. But only the home screens show up for the phone

Why won't adobe reader show text?

I am working for my eagle scout rank and in order to do my service project, a form must be filled out on the computer as a pdf. I started the PDF on my old dell, and i downloaded Adobe reader for my mac to finish it. For preview, it takes the lines of the paragraph and overlaps the words, rendering it unreadable, and for adobe reader, the words are invisible unless editing those words. when the text box isnt selected the words disappear. Why isnt this working and is there a setting i can change to fix this?

Why isnt this working
Difficult to say without further details. The fact that both Preview and Adobe Reader have difficulties with it suggests that the file itself may be corrupt—or that you have fonts issues on your Mac.
You need to isolate the problem. Download another PDF file and check if it shows any anomalies. Gather info on the problem file; eg, in Preview, use Inspector (Tools > Show Inspector) and check PDF version, content creator, and PDF creator.

Why won't Focus Area Show up under selection from the new update of PS CC '14?

So I am looking for the Focus Area in PS CC '14's new update, but I can't find it. I search it up on help but it does not find it.
I've updated it all today. Is there a setting I need to have so that it will show up?
Please help.

I got it. I still don't understand why so if someone can explain it I'd love to know. But when I removed <div id=ads> and it's close div, putting the content of that div in with the webcam div, it all worked. I don't have it that way on the page that uses the same size images and layout, but in a slideshow format, but for some reason it's what it took to make it work here.
I'd love to know if anyone knows why. But in case anyone else is struggling with something similar, maybe this will help.

Why won't the text show on top of a rectangle?

When I use the rectangle frame tool to make a box and then put a text box on top it doesn't let the text show.
This first picture is of my text box off the side, and then the yellow box I'm trying to put the text on top of, the second picture is what it shows me when I try to do that. It will show the text anywhere as long as it's not on top of a box and I can't figure out why or how to change it.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Select your rectangle and turn off the Text Wrap
or
Select your text box and set it to Ignore Text Wrap
or
in your preferences, set Text Wrap Affects Only Items Beneath. (not sure of the wording, but that's the jist.)

Why won't a cursor show up in the shape when I double click it?

I thought you could just double click the shape to type in it...The cursor shows up outside the shape in the main part of the document or it highlights unrelated text from a text box, but it won't put a cursor in the shape. After trying 50 times, I will finally get the cursor in the box.

--> any shape, square, rounded corner square, circle, arrow...
Inline or floating?
--> etried both modes, but want floating
Do you have an image in the shape?
--> empty shape, want text
What else is on the page?
--> 3 text boxes, ea sized to fit 2 words
Do you have a screen grab?
--> prefer not to post pic, but it is basically default shapes colored white and made ~2x3" with plain text inside, dragged into rows where text boxes are titles.
Anyway, there is really nothing out of the ordinary with the doc. When Pages Help says "Double click the shape and type the text you want," it does not work to just double click in the middle of the shape, like I would guess. I had to double click near the edge of the shape.

Why won't migrated files show up in search or in "all my files" despite being perfectly accessible?

I have just migrated all my files to a new macbook pro from an old macbook pro and ì have stumbled upon a minor issue: all my files are here, and work perfectly fine, but they won't show up if I do a search in finder or in "all my files" until I modify them (for a microsoft word document anyway). Music that I play will show up in search but not in "all my files" if is not included in the itunes folder in my music, but if it comes from the itunes folder it won't show up in either even if I play it. Is there an easy way to solve this problem? It's not too much of an issue but opening every file or attempting to make it show may be cumbersome.

Hey there Cabocel,
it sounds like you're not seeing all you files in your All My Files list as expected. It seems to me like you need to re-index your Spotlight. The following article will help you do that:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,

Why won't some images show thumbnails?

Seems like the graphics added or downloaded will spontaneously show a thumbnail most of the time but there are some jpegs that will not. I can't figure out why not. Does anyone have any idea what regulates this?

I still don't know why that happens, but not important.

Why won't apple TV show up in Devices on itunes?

Hi all. I know this has got to have an easy answer......
But here's my problem. I bought 2 movies on my apple TV and they won't show upu on my itunes account on my MAC. I have home sharing on both. But there's NOTHING listed on the column on right of itunes - there's NO device listed - In fact the only time I have a device shown is when I physically have them connected by USB cable. On the Apple TV it shows to be on, but nothing is listed there on that menu. Like I said I have a MAC and so i don't think i need this Boujour program. Can anyone help me? I'll note that under Itunes -> perferences -> devices appletv is NOT listed - so I'm not sure that's a problem or not.
Please help. And yes, I think I'm current on all versions and updates.
Thank you!
