When using + to add a new contact, cannot get the keyboard to show so I can’t type in the name. Is there some setting I need to change?
‘‘‘A hard reset can cure some of the problems. I found that if you have bluetooth enabled - it is trying to reference another device. Go to settings - turn the bluetooth off. Restart the phone and problem should be resolved.’’’
I’m having the same problem with iphone 5
Thanks! turning off the bluetooth and then restarting the phone worked for me!
I told it to Siri and it was fixed asap!
Turning off phone worked for me too!!
I have Reboot my iphone4s it worked for me..Thanks for the answer.
How can I get key board to appear when I am trying to type in new contact
Hi - I had this problem on my iPhone 5s. I tried to fix it several times by turning the phone off. That did NOT fix the problem until I first turned off Bluetooth. Then it worked. Thank You!
I had the same problem. All it took was shutting the phone off, waiting a minute and turning it back on.
Thanks! Restart worked!
I can’t add a new contact in my iPhone because the keypad is not showing. What is happening?
You might also have this issue i just experienced. Double click your home button and if there is a blue-million windows opened, then close them all. For some reason it seems that there is a “Limit” as to how many windows can use the keyboard at one time. Not sure what that limit is, but if there are too many windows opened, you might lose some functionality. Good Luck!
Turn off blue tooth and reboot. It works
