John,
Did you see the recent post on the list? That might explain why it works
for some and not others. It's very likely that your Zagg keyboard isn't
transmitting with the correct compatible version of Bluetooth. Apparently,
4.2 isn't supported.
Chris.

That is so weird! I have a bluetooth Apple keyboard, and an IPad Air wifi
only 32 GB space gray first gen running 8.2. they definitely work.
I'm curious to know if you guys having these issues are jailbroken? If
not, what devices do you have specifically? What I O S devices, and what
keyboards?
I'm just trying earnestly to pinpoint down why it wouldn't work for some
of you, yet for others it does. I'll gladly make a recording here in a
bit to show you all that the bluetooth keyboard is working on my end.
Chris.

It's good that you mentioned the bluetooth keyboard issue. Just updated
last night and now my keyboard doesn't work when Voiceover is on.
Fantastic.

It was certainly broken when 8.0 was initially released for sure. As
they have updated the software, there have been bug fixes. There are
still Bluetooth keyboard problems and a few strange navigation issues
still present. However, my understanding is that 8.3 has specific
VoiceOver bug fixes in it.

Whatever people. I'm telling you that Apple did break it, yes, but
that is the key word... Did!
Things work very well now, and if you don't believe me, tell me what
you had an issue with, and I'll make an audio demo showing it's been
fixed. Maybe then, you'll believe me.
Chris.

I too have an Ipad 2. No way would I put IOS 8 on it. I am a firm
believer in if it isn't broken don't fix it. Apple broke it.

I still haven't upgraded to iOs 8 on my iPad 2. I'm still running iOs

Should I update, or can I expect slower operation?

Hi all,
I don’t know about yall, but I have an iphone 6 with IOS 8 and I have
to say that the experience is less than stellar. Bugs everywhere,
slower than on my iphone 5s, siri cut off midway then voice over not
working, hang like slowness when getting out of an app. I have to say
that I have started looking for alternatives as I feel like apple is
trying to nudge things too much into the “let big brother figure out
for you what you should like and do”. Point in case, that U2 debacle.
Last weekend I was camping with some mates and I was going through some
tracks after lunch, and those damn U2 tracks kept popping up like
annoying ads. Really don’t want some band pushing their crap on my life
experience when I shelled out 1200 dollars for a phone that is supposed
to do things for me. Not the other way around. Sure, U2 has some great
songs. But their current 50’s midlife crisis moans aren’t my style, nor
inspire me. I can listen to that when I go into an apple store and wait
for a genius to tell me my future.
Seriously folks, I’m not just going off on a rant, and for those of you
who want to reply by being defensive for apple, just remember a few
basic things:
1-You are customer. Customer is king, you are not serving apple. Apple
makes money off you, take 30 percent of the cut on your music
production or app developement with their platform. They serve you. Not
the other way around.
2-Apple is not god almighty. Apple has great people that collectively
create experiences. At the helm, a few individuals decide on the
direction of that experience. Personally, I don’t trust Tim Cook that
much in giving us a good experience. That Johnny Ive sounds like a
pompous marketing guy with design skills I cannot trust as head of
human interface, a software division, coming from someone who used to
make toilet seats. The only one or ones I can trust in this are
frederici and some of the younger engineers presented at the last apple
showcase. but they don’t have enough say yet, so we’re stuck with all
that flash graphical transition animation style crap instead of truly
clean, efficient and snappy interfaces.
3-There are other choices out there, but I have no idea what. Sometimes
I wish I was sighted again so that I can really be part of the process
of creating real interfaces for everyone. It’s frustrating to know that
most companies follow what is standard and forget that standards are
meant to be broken and updated. Not broken at the cost of the buyer,
no. If it’s broken, it should be free, such as what google offers.
Buying a 3000 dollar piece of hardware to get clunky experiences and
moments where you want to throw that damn thing out the window and
never touch it again is clearly not what I call good experience on a
computer. More and more of my friends, mac users, both sighted and
visually impaired, agree with me that apple is starting to rot in terms
of presenting it’s image. It’s not an underdog but a huge bulky oil
tanker that can now only manuver slowly with a battalion of lawyers
behind murmuring at the chief’s ears, the latter being probably more
complacent than should be, thus giving us this weird awkward show each
year now with a barely straight talking TIm Cook who sounds like he
never had a girl friend chill time or something seems amiss in him.
Some soul? Something. Whatever the case, I don’t really dig the style
apple is portraying. It’s becoming a disney world presentation with
oooohs and aaahs when the tech behind is quite literally lagging. No
visionary stuff, when this qualification should by now, from all the
sci fi, the research and the graduations of bright people, should lead
us much farther in terms of actual interaction with a computer, and let’s
not forget screen readers.
Anyway, off for my morning coffee. Have a great day yall
