Q: Why is my spacebar missing on My Ipad 2 IOS V8.4.1?

I have update to Version 8.4.1 quite a while ago, but never had a problem with my keyboard spacebar.  I don't use other keyboards and don't download a lot of things, only facebook and chrome.  However when I'm in messages typing my spacebar looks like it's lost underneath. I can see the very top of it but can't use it.  I have to keep resetting my Ipad.  Is there any solution for this.  I see a lot of people are having the same issue.

iPad Mini, iOS 8.4, Under Warranty, syncing

    Hello momluvstv,

     

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    From the description of your issue, it sounds like you may have inadvertently enabled Zoom, one of the Accessibility features.  You can toggle that feature with these steps:

    Zoom

    • To enable Zoom, use three fingers and double-tap the screen.
    • To increase the level of Zoom, use three fingers to double-tap and hold, then move your fingers up or down on the screen to increase or decrease magnification.

    For additional information on this and other Accessibility features you can look at this support article:

    Use Accessibility features in iOS

     

    Best regards.

    have you tried updating iOS 8.4.1 to iOS 9.1 and see if that fixes the issue
