I was on a call when they asked me, for security reasons, to type in a code using my keypad. I did not know how to do that? How can I type a hyphen using the keypad of my iPhone 6?
iPad 2, iOS 4.3.1, iTunes does not accept my Apple pas
You can't. There are no hyphens on the numbered keypad on an iPhone or any Phone really. Only numbers or corresponding letters.
Are you sure they asked for a hyphenated code? If it was a IVR system it usually only accepts numbers and letters. no special characters. Some may use either the * or the # as a place holder for a special character. But that would be specific for the system you were interacting with.
If you mean from the Phone app, you can't (any more than you could on a regular phone). There is no hyphen key on a phone dial array.
Indeed. How can you type a hyphen using any sort of phone type keypad? I would ask the people you were calling how they expect you to do it.
The code I was asked to input was 956-75. When I tried to input just the number or the number with a space it would not take it.
try it without the space 95675
I agree with above. Since no hyphen is possible, just input the numbers together. That sounds like the more logical option.
