Dear community,
I'm so frustrated that I cannot make my keyboard (see link/img below) work properly with my iPad... I have a veteran - iPad 1 (iOS 5.1.1) and my TouchPad wireless keyboard connected without any problems with it. The problems come when I try to type some text anywhere possible (Notes/Word-like programe/browser) - whenever I hit a symbol/back key ONCE, it goes on and on, as if I'm still pressing the key.. When I'm not fast enough with the typing, it types something like "Hellooo thissss issss aa testttttttt...." or when I hit the back key, everything I write, will be deleted, symbol by symbol, not only the last one. This all stops whenever I press the key in the most upper left corner - the one which looks like a comment bubble with something in it. But it's impossible to type this way - type a symbol, then strike the "comment bubble"-key, then another symbol, then the bubble key again... What should I do? I can only say that I successfully connected my keyboard with my lenovo Windows 7 laptop and there are no such problems...
Thanks in advance,
Ives
