Move Cursor Using "keyboard"?

Apr 28, 2011

Is there any way to move the cursor using the "keyboard"? Sometimes when using my finger I put the cursor in the wrong place. My solution is to make the screen larger and try again but I was wondering if there was a way to move the cursor using keystrokes (without deleting).

Move Cursor Using Virtual Keyboard?

Jun 5, 2012

Since there are no arrow keys on a virtual keyboard...

is there a way to move your cursor through your text without effecting your text using your virtual keys like you can with a physical keyboard's arrow keys

Or is the only way... to use your finger in the magnifying glass to drag/reposition your cursor which I'm getting better at but still find clunky, imprecise and slow requiring extra concentration, much more than using arrow keys.

Mac Pro 3.0 GHz Quad-Core, iPad WiFi/3G, iPhone4, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 30" HP Display, 22" Cinema Display

Keyboard - Way To Put Cursor To Edit The Text

Apr 20, 2011

I am simply loving this iPad. The features, the apps, the size and the battery life are all way cool. But you still have to type text on this thing. There is no mouse. What I really want is a way to navigate through previous typed text. With a mouse on a regular Mac you can place the cursor wherever you want, easily. You can also use the keyboard arrow keys. Say you type a whole bunch of text on the iPad. Navigating to an error is a royal pain. Its hard. There is no mouse. OK. But I long for arrow keys that lets you back up the cursor to where you want to edit your text.

Ipad 2 Keyboard Cursor Hangs

Mar 27, 2012

I'm having problems with the keyboard / cursor when typing. If I have typed something and want to change it, I touch the screen to move the cursor then everything freezes. The keyboard stops responding, the cursor stays fixed in place. But it's not with everything , so far it plays up with editing Facebook posts in the Facebook app, when editing webmail accessed through Safari. But doing this it's working fine. The only way out is to send the email or post.

I've restarted with no difference and also selected a different language for the keyboard.

Info:iPad 2

Unable To Find Cursor Keys / Wont Position Cursor

Jun 4, 2010

On some forums, if I reply to an existing message on a bulletin board and quote the existing text, if the text exceeds the box to reply, I don't see a way to move the cursor to the end of the text. There is no vertical scroll bar inside the reply box and finger gestures are not recognized. When I connect the wireless bluetooth keyboard, I don't have this problem as I can use the arrow keys, but I don't see them on the internal keyboard.

G5, MacBook Pro, iPad, iPhone

And, second question, how do I select great chunks of the OP's message that are not relevant to the reply to delete?
