That is, it doesn't respond to keyboard until you manually bring the app back into focus by either...

    M2 MacBook Air mushy key help

    My MacBook Air M2 has developed a mushy key. The 'L' key. Sometimes when I'm typing, the L doesn't show up because it needs slightly more pressure to register. I think a crumb of monster munch (roast beef) may be in there. I have no AppleCare, but it's within warrantee. The problem is a trip...

    in iPadOS 16, how do you get the big keyboard?

    On Apple’s website, it says that to get the keyboard in iPadOS, you need to pinch outwards with two fingers on the floating keyboard. But this doesn’t work for me in iPadOS 16. So how do you get to the big keyboard?

    iPad What's the difference between iPad Air and iPad10?

Still keeping a 3dot connector at the bottom edge and making a new Microsoft surface keyboard is also weird, thus the vanilla iPad can't use the Magic...
