Tapping and writing problems

Problem

Solution

When I tap the
buttons or screen
icons, it activates the
wrong feature.

Calibrate the screen. See “Digitizer
preferences” in Chapter 9.

When I tap the Menu

icon ,

nothing

happens.

Not all applications or screens have menus.
Try changing to a different application.

I can’t get my
handheld to
recognize my
handwriting.

For your handheld to recognize hand-

writing input with the stylus, you need
to use Graffiti

®

writing. See “Using

Graffiti writing to enter data” in
Chapter 2.

Make the Graffiti character strokes in

the Graffiti writing area, not on the
display part of the screen.

Write Graffiti strokes for letters in the

left-hand side, and the strokes for
numbers in the right-hand side of the
Graffiti writing area.

Make sure that Graffiti is not shifted

into extended or punctuation modes.
See “Using Graffiti writing to enter
data” in Chapter 2.

See “Graffiti tips” in Chapter 2 for tips

on increasing your accuracy when you
write Graffiti characters.
