have you tried to double tap with one finger on the top left button? Perhaps this is the "edit" button that people are talking about. If so, I have another suggestion that you might like to try! Have you used the "Quick nav" keys on the keyboard? If not, I'll explain them. If you are familiar with them then move onto the top left button with the left arrow until you hear "button" and then press the up and down arrows together as if they were one key. I do this by placing my finger in the gap between the keys to make them go down as one. Has this any effect?

Cearbhall. The only keys that respond when I press them are the top right hand key with the words "keyboard hidden" and the top left key with a click. All the best Damien. -----Original Message----- From: vicsireland-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:vicsireland-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cearbhall O'Meadhra Sent: 15 July 2013 23:31 To: vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vicsireland] Re: Hidden keyboard on iPhone. Damien, I don't know which task you are trying to carry out on the iPhone when you get this error but a quick search on the net shows that the keyboard is hidden when the edit button is showing. You could try a single-finger double tap on the screen to activate the edit button and this might resolve the problem. If not, then try to give a brief description of the steps you took to get to this screen and we can see if we can find the solution.

Hi Cearbhall. I'm using an iphone 5 with the latest ios update. I think it's ios 7. Re the blue tooth keyboard, it's an apple keyboard. That's all I can say about it. I got it from the compu b shop last year. All the best Damien. -----Original Message----- From: vicsireland-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:vicsireland-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Cearbhall O'Meadhra Sent: 15 July 2013 17:16 To: vicsireland@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [vicsireland] Re: Hidden keyboard on iPhone. Damien, I use a Bluetooth keyboard regularly with the iPhone so I will happily try to help if I can. Could you tell us what Bluetooth keyboard you are using? It would help to know which version of IOS you are using and on what iPhone model.

Hi everyone. I'm using a blue tooth keyboard with my iphone, or at least trying to. But, when I try to type anything, nothing happens. The only sound I can get is when I press the escape key it just says "keyboard hidden". Has anyone else had this problem and if so, how do I resolve it? Thanks in advance Damien. =========================================================== The vicsireland mailing list To unsubscribe at any time send a mail to: vicsireland-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word "unsubscribe", without the quotes in the subject of the message.
