Hi Duane, Next time you're near your Braille Edge, open a text field and show the keyboard with Space and dots 146. With the keyboard visible, turn off your iDevice and your braille display. Then turn your iDevice back on and confirm that the keyboard is visible. It should now remain visible as you continue to use your device. I don't know why this happens, but I've had it happen periodically for years.
