storekit support in ios5 simulator - keyboard doesn't work?

Question

Wow, finally the XCode 4.2 / iOS5 simulator has StoreKit support.

In my app I've noticed that when StoreKit asks for an AppleID/password, I can enter that information using the simulator on-screen keyboard, but NOT via the Mac keyboard.

Is this normal or do I have some other issue?

Answer 1

I have the same issue but I do this as a workaround:

Type your password somewhere, copy it, paste into the simulator using cmd + v and then use the iOS paste function (press and hold in the passeword field) to paste it into the dialogue.

Saved me a lot of time!

Answer 2

From the iOS Simulator menu, select "Reset Content and Settings..."

Sometimes the simulator just gets confused and loses the ability to interact with the keyboard. This should fix it.
