Testing iPad issue
 

Any other ipad users finding the long press to bring up the copy paste select menu isn't working on the forum?

Yep just tried it and mine isn't either,

All mine does is flash up with "paste" for a split secound then that's it, goes again

Infact I've just tried it on another forum and it's not working there either, must be the new f-ing software update I did the other day, Apple are well and truly sh*t in my opinion, I absolutely love my iPad but Apple can never seem to get the updates right. Ggrrrrrr

Thought it may be an iPad rather than forum issue. But at least since the latest update my keyboard appears to work again!

I think its an ipad issue. I couldnt get the smilies to work on my ipad. I then did a reset on it and all of a sudden they worked.

The problems I have since ios8 update on an ipad air:

Smilies on forums
Two of my Apps crashing as soon as I open them (deleted and redownloaded)
Sound problems (ie: no sound when on you tube).

Since doing a basic reset on the ipad all of the above have problems have been sorted.
Apparantly the latest 8.0.2 adds stability and resolves some of the above issues as well.
