How do I type using my keyboard on the iphone simulator?

Try trashing the iPhone Simulator preferences file. When my iPhone Simulator stopped responding to keystrokes, this fixed it.

  1. Quit the simulator.
  2. Go to finder and press (command+shift+G) then navigate ~/Library/Preferences.
  3. Move com.apple.iphonesimulator.plist to the trash.
  4. Try launching your iPhone app in the simulator again.
