Q: Keyboard Stops Working in Mail App

Hey there macmeister,

It sounds like your Mail app is typing invisible letters when you attach a photo to it. I would start by quitting the Mail app and the Settings app:

iOS: Force an app to close

Double-click the Home button.

Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.

Swipe the app up to close it.

When you have done that restart the device and test the issue again:

iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

If the issue persists, then I would next remove and re add the account in your settings:

 

1. Remove the affected email account from your device with these steps:
   1. Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
   2. Tap the email account.
   3. Tap Delete Account.
   4. Add your account again.
