    iPad iPadOS --> Keyboard cover with trackpad?

    Can we expect to see any keyboard cover for iPad Pro with a built-in bluetooth trackpad after iPadOS release? After the release, I think that thing will be doable. I wonder if Logitech, Zagg etc. think the same as I do. What do you think?

    Bluetooth keyboard not working on IPad

    I reset my IPad Air and reconnected my bluetooth keyboard to it. When I hit spacebar it returns to the start of the line instead of what the space bar normally does. Now with this problem, the keyboard is impossible to use and I now only use it as a stand. Any ideas on what I could try?

    Resolved Media Buttons not working IN iTunes

    SOLUTION: The media keys IN iTunes are for some odd reason (or maybe a bug) internet bound. No internet means they don't work in iTunes but just fine for every other Media Player etc. I will contact Apple and ask if I have the time in the near future. If something substantial is said I will...
