Ipad Virtual Keyboard Disappears

After a certain time of utilisation, the virtual keyboard dissapears. After a reset it appears again. Is there any way to fix this problem, without doing resets ?

Thanks for your help

I had the same problem. Do you have the wireless Bluetooth keyboard? If you do and you are not using it, go into settings and turn off the Bluetooth setting. This will restore the virtual keyboard. The virtual keyboard appears to get confused when the bluetooth keyboard is not in range and the iPad is searching for it.

My keyboard also disappears. It pops up, but disappears before I can type. My Bluetooth is disconnected. Keyboard lets me type address into an email, but disappears when I tab to the subject line or body of email. And it is working just fine on this site. No ryme or reason. Any suggestions?
