In iPhone virtual keyboard...
1.Change the alphabetical keypad view to numerical view.
2.Tap on the single quote(') button the view changes to alphabetical.
3.In this view tapping on space twice displays a fullstop.
I don't know whether it is apple bug or feature, How to fix this issue through coding?
Thanks,
This is not a bug, this is a feature.
(Apple deliberately make pressing ' switch back to the alphabetic plane for contractions like "Peter's".)
(And tapping space twice gives a period is also a feature. It's even documented.)
If you want to modify this feature, the whole UIKBKeyboard class of the keyboard layout needs to be changed at runtime, which means "private API" etc.

The app automatically assigns the first control in the document outline to the first responder automatically after the app launch (See reset button in the screenshot below).
I did not assign any control to be the first responder in my code. How to disable this behavior using swift?
I have referred and tested some Objective-C methods about resigning first responder but no effect.
Any hint or comment is appreciated and thanks for your time viewing this question.
After a day of investigation, I finally realize that it is my own problem. The button is auto-focused because I turned on the full keyboard access on my Mac (See screenshot below). It behavior commonly after I set it to the Text box and lists only.
So, I got the following image from graphic designer.
On the right is keyboard popping in our application, on the left is keyboard he sees everywhere else on his phone (iPhone 6), apparently. He wants the keyboard on the left to appear in our application too. This looks like standard iOS keyboard, only smaller, but I don't see any option to get it. How do I get it? Or is it just particularly popular custom keyboard/extension? Or maybe it's really easy to do custom keyboard/extension (note, I don't know a thing about custom keyboards/extensions in iOS)?
The keyboard is adjusted when you have inputAccessoryView assigned for active field.

I'm part of a team building a mobile web app using AppGyver Steroids (PhoneGap). We are having an issue with the iOS7 keyboard displaying a very faint "Done" button on the keyboard when the user is operating in a text area or an input select. I suspect this is a problem that is actually global in our app, but these are the instances where I have observed them.
I've searched and searched for a solution or how to "customize" the keyboard in order to make this "Done" button more obvious, but I haven't found any solutions yet. Can anyone point me in the direction of how to adjust the "Done" button or any other keyboard/input controls?
Attached are two screenshots showing the issue.

Have you seen the issue on github? It's now fixed. They'll be including the option for custom colours in the near future.
I have an application that allows the user to edit multiple text fields and views. Rather than mess around raising each view to the top when the keyboard is active, I decided to instead make one textView for editing and hide/show it when input is needed, then transfer the data when it is done. To move focus to the new textView, I call its becomeFirstResponder method, and lo and behold, the cursor goes to the right place. However if I use this method, the iPhone keyboard does not appear. I have no idea why. Can anyone explain, and tell me how to make the keyboard appear? All the other questions I've looked at seem to indicate that setting becomeFirstResponder for a textView ought to make the keyboard come up.

Is Hardware -> Simulate Hardware Keyboard enabled?
Are you doing this whole thing programatically or using Interface Builder as well?
If so are the IB connections setup right?
Is there some way to have a keyboard of type UIKeyboardTypeNamePhonePad start in phone number pad mode rather than alphabetic? The keyboard works well for what I need but I'd like it to start in the "other" mode since that is more likely what the user will enter.
I believe that by setting the keyboardType property to UIKeyboardTypeNumbersAndPunctuation, you will default to the numbers and punctuation view, while still having the option of returning to the "ABC" view. Apple's documentation on it: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/uikit/reference/UITextInputTraits_Protocol/Reference/UITextInputTraits.html

Unfortunately the answer to this question is NO, but there is a workaround.
You can use the UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad and add a custom button (e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/a/4826342/61569) to switch the keyboard to UIKeyboardTypeNamePhonePad. The challenge with this workaround is to support the keyboard styles of different versions of iOS with this custom button
The UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad does not have the 'Done' or the 'ABC' button that will allow you to toggle back and forth between default keyboard and the NumberPad. Now you can choose to go with what #Anthony F suggested but remember you risk the chance of loosing the custom 'Done' button everytime Apple releases newer versions of iOS and move their keyboard window around. To achieve what you want, your best bet will be to set your keyboardType to UIKeyboardTypeNumbersAndPunctuation. This way, you have your keyboard NumberPad loaded up automatically when your view load and have the 'ABC' button also present to be able to toggle between the default keyboard also if you want.
self.myTextfield.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeNumbersAndPunctuation;
In the textfield in question, You set the kind of keyboard you would like it to "activate":
[self.myTextfield setKeyboardType:UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad];
