Question

I need to disable the action twoFingerSingleTap from the class UITextTapRecongnizer on UITextView when the keyboard is up to make another function with the same gesture.

someone has an idea??

tks.

I guess this is a followup from your other question: Prevent tap event on UITextView

Instead of disabling that gesture recogniser you could try ‘hijcaking’ it.

for (UIGestureRecognizer *g in myTextView.gestureRecognizers)
{
    if ([g isKindOfClass:[UITapGestureRecognizer class]])
    {
        if (([(UITapGestureRecognizer *)g numberOfTouchesRequired] == 2) && ([(UITapGestureRecognizer *)g numberOfTapsRequired] == 1))
        {
          //[g setEnabled: NO]; this was for disabling
          [g removeTarget:nil action:nil]; //this removes all targets and actions (documentation!)
          [g addTarget: self action:@selector(myHandler:)];
        }
    }
}

- (void)myHandler:(UIGestureRecognizer *)sender {

    NSLog (@"success...");
    //do your stuff
}

EDIT: if this (according to your edited question) stops working when keyboard shows up then try this: override - (void)textViewDidBeginEditing:(UITextView *)textView method of your textViewDelegate and put the same code inside.
