@quietpurplehaze :-) I have the same problem with my iPad. The keyboard and I are still working things out. I'm making the transition from a Samsung android tablet to the iPad, and I don't quite speak Apple yet. Did you get the email I sent you off-list last night? I was hoping I still had the correct email address.
Did you like my spelling of wirds above - think it rhymes with birds!!! (The perils of commenting using my ipad!)
