Do it!
I have an ipad 1 but do most of my coding on the ipad 4. Like you I have found the ipad1 tends to crash more when using codea.
@Dave1707 for your info i cant copy from safari too. I long press the icon but nothing happens… I tried it from Mercury too: same. But i just dwnloaded it from CC with no crash! (first time it works ever for me with no crash!)
Wow! I tried your ‘rotate the ipad’ trick and it works! As i am always in panorama, i have to go in portrait, then back to panorama, and NOW the icon can be selected and the copy button appears! Quite weird!
@Toffer: if you cant solve it, why not just making a ‘normal’ button to get the code? After all, the tab buttons work well, so it it possible to make working buttons for the ipad1?
