Virtual keyboard slow to appear

[bahnty]

Have an ipad2 and the virtual keyboard takes 15 seconds to appear after I touch the search bar. Anyone else see this?

My apple keyboard doesn't connect to my iPad 2 so I sorta could relate

If you have not done so, try these common problem fixers.


Close/Clear the app: With the problem app closed, double tap on the Home button to get the multitask bar. Tap and hold on any icon in the bar until they jiggle, then tap the minus sign on the problem app. This will remove it from RAM and insure a clean start the next time you launch the app.

If that does not work try a restart,

Restart: Hold down the power button until the power off slider appears. Slide it off. When the iPad finishes shutting down, hold down the power button again until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends you restart the iPad at least once a month.

and then a reset if that does not work.

Reset: Hold down the power and home buttons until the Apple logo appears. The iPad will reboot. This usually takes a bit longer than a restart.
