iPad keyboard I'm sure there is an easy fix to this, but I don't know what it is. My keyboard is now popping up in the middle of my screen, instead of at the bottom. How do I move it back to the bottom, please?

ipad on-screen keyboard unwelcome change From the time I first got my ipad, when the onscreen keyboard is invoked, it appeared at the bottom of the screen and was unbroken. Recently -- maybe as a result of a software update? -- the onscreen keyboard has been appearing half-way between the top and bottom of the screen and is split in the center into two separate sections. I find this change quite awkward to use and would like to get the old on-screen keyboard back.

Can’t find how to stop on-screen keyboard from popping up, after reset of iPad Pro While running thru debug steps with Apple Support when my pointer went dead, we may have changed some settings that I don’t remember. (In the end the whole problem was simply a dirty connection between iPad and Magic KB!) Since a whole reset in the debug attempt, the on-screen keyboard keeps coming up blocking half my screen. I rarely ever need the on-screen keyboard and have gone thru every setting I can think of to turn it off, but it persists. Anyone know how to turn it off? Tks.
