The keyboard does not show up when I run the simulator and click in the UITextView. How do I re-enable the keyboard?
It used to work but now it doesn't - I don't know what I might have clicked by accident... any tips would be appreciated!
Just press ⌘K it will toggle keyboard.
CMD + Shift + K toggles connectivity of the hardware keyboard, which will open the software keyboard by default if the other one is disconnected.
Tap in a text field. Tap the "hide keyboard" button in bottom-right corner. Tap to another text field.
The basic way to open a list of simulators is to use Xcode -> Window -> Devices and Simulators. Here you can create and manage all available simulators.
While testing in the ios8 beta simulator, you may toggle between the "software keyboard" and "hardware keyboard" with ⌘+K.
UPDATE: Since iOS Simulator 8.0, the shortcut is ⇧+⌘+K.
I had the same issue. My solution was as follows:
Mine was checked because I was using my mac keyboard, but if you make sure it is unchecked the iPhone keyboard will always come up.
