Has anyone else experienced this recently? If I try to navigate the Facebook app with my keyboard’s trackpad, the app will freeze and crash. It doesn’t happen just using my fingers. This is a recent phenomenon.
Thanks for the tip, let me check itFound this on same thread on apple community. If you are using hardware keyboard. Go to setting>accessibility>Keyboards>Full keyboard access>ON
Note is causes problems though with chrome browser when turned on and I just found when turned on I cannot post comments here so this is only a fix on facebook and hitting comments when keyboard (of any kind) attached to one’s iPad.
That fixed it for me! Thanks!Thanks for the tip, let me check it
Yes saw that however other websites in safari no longer work when the keyboard accessibility turned on so thats a pain to use facebook. also now seeing major problems logging into. Apple support where it keeps telling me it logged me off (right after logging on ) when I try to post in thread about this issue there. As i post replies it gives me message it failed and I was logged out. My ipad is slowly becoming a brick for online surfing use.It worked, but now there are blue borders popping up around the os, which I guess is some accessibility feature???
Yes same here with other websites like this one in order to be typing replies and such I have to turn the accessibility keyboard feature back off. Kind of a real kludge to use different websites other than facebookThe fix worked for facebook, but now I‘m not able to type on the google suite programs that I use at work on Safari. Oh well…
Guessing a keyboard related software update, like when the keyboard backlight wouldn’t shut off when closing and it was draining the battery back in 2019.This problem only started for me after the iPadOS 15.1 update. Is that the same timing for everyone else? Surely it‘s a bug Apple must be sorting out?
New update. I found if you go into the commands associated with the keyboard when you turn it on and inactivate the space bar command (choose clear) then things work ok. I have the accessibility turned on now, facebook is working and now I have no problems typing here or other websites. A fix for now hopefully the deactivation of the space bar in accessibility on for keyboard will not cause other problems but in general this now seems to be a solid fix. Who know when 15.2 comes outThe fix worked for facebook, but now I‘m not able to type on the google suite programs that I use at work on Safari. Oh well…
Rjjacobson, you are my hero! This has been driving me nuts for a couple of weeks now! I’d figured out about turning on full keyboards to stop Facebook freeze, but then it made my Outlook on my iPad Pro go nuts! Thanks so much ?New update.
