Tapping and writing problems
My handheld is not making
any sounds.
Check the System, Alarm, and Game Sound settings.
See “Sounds & Alerts Preferences” in Chapter 16.
My handheld has frozen. If a network connection was improperly terminated, your
handheld may appear to be frozen for up to 30 seconds. If it is
still frozen after 30 seconds, perform a soft reset.
See “Resetting your handheld” in Appendix A. If your
handheld continues to freeze after a soft reset, you may have
an incompatible application installed. See “Problems with
incompatible applications” later in this chapter for
information.
Problem Solution
When I tap the buttons or
screen icons, my handheld
activates the wrong feature.
Calibrate the screen.
See “Digitizer Preferences” in Chapter 16
.
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.
Try each of these in turn:
■ For your handheld to recognize handwriting input with the
stylus, you need to use Graffiti
®
2 writing. See “Using
Graffiti
®
2 writing” in Chapter 3.
■ Make the Graffiti 2 character strokes in the input area, not
on the display part of the screen. If you want to write on the
display part of the screen, you must turn on and activate
Writing Area Preferences. See “To use the full-screen
writing area:” in Chapter 3.
■ Write Graffiti 2 strokes for lowercase letters in the left side,
strokes for capital letters in the middle, and strokes for
numbers in the right side of the input area.
■ Make sure that Graffiti 2 is not in shift mode. See “Using
these accent strokes, you can write the following accented
letters:” in Chapter 3.
■ Run the Graffiti 2 tutorial application on your handheld for
tips on increasing your accuracy when you write Graffiti 2
characters.
