Q: Keyboard shortcut problems in iPhone 5S with iOS 8 update

Hey guys, I just updated to iOS 8 on my iPhone 5S and keyboard shortcuts are not working out. All the shortcuts I had saved before disappeared. This happened to me the last time I updated to iOS 7 with an iPhone 4S and I thought that had something to do with my phone being old. Now that it's a new phone they are all gone! Like an hour ago, I entered new shortcuts and now that I'm typing they disappeared too, anyone has the same problem or a possible solution? Thanks!

iPhone 5s, iOS 8

    Anyone got any updates on this? iOS 8.3 and OS X 10.10.3 haven't resolved this for me. From the iPad Air, new shortcuts (but not deletions) propagate to my iPhone 6 but not to my iMac. Nothing propagates in any other direction.

    I installed iOS 8.3 on my iPhone 6, and YIPPY!  My shortcuts are accessible and working again!  FINALLY..   My iPad 2 is still using the previous iOS because of speed concerns, but it had the same problem at the same time it started on my iPhone 6..  So, I haven't tried the shortcuts on that one yet..  I'm hoping whatever the iPhone 6 was doing, that it was affecting the iPad 2 with old iOS.. I'll check that later today..   I haven't tried Yosemite yet. I'm still on Mavericks.. Maybe I'll switch that soon.

    Some time ago the shortcuts I used so much started to not work. After trying everything with some success, I found a verifiable fix which works every time I've tried it. If the shortcuts stop working, simply go to settings, keyboards then shortcuts. Highlight the top of the list shortcut of your saved shortcuts. Click save, shortcuts are restored every time on my iPad Air 2, 128 gig, wi-fi. I have never tried anything other than the top one on the list. Hope this helps anyome who has lost that feature and wants to easily restore it.

    Turning off and on the predictive keyboard solved the problem with the shortcuts but predicted keyboard is now a bit bugged.
