Manuals
At the gate just prior to departure I was preparing to read the required TSA directive for flights returning to the US from a foreign country; located in Part 1.  I could not access Part 1 using the Reader application.  It requested the security code required to open Part 1; however the iPad or Reader program did not present a keyboard in order to type the security code into the displayed security code entry window.  I tried closing all programs and rebooting the iPad with no success.  In essence I flew the entire flight; round-trip without access to my Part 1.  This occurred after company authorized upgrading the iPad to IOS 7 and I completed that upgrade prior to departure on this trip.  I am working with the flight department to correct whatever the issue is with my iPad or Reader program.
B777 Captain reports the inability to access iPad information due to the lack of a keypad to enter the security code after a recent IOS upgrade.
