Jackie,

I didn't see your question about voice mail, but if you need to switch on and off in O2, 1750 switches on and 1760 switches off, I think.

I haven't used them myself for ages but did write them down so give them a try.

Thanks Ed. Now we all know how to answer Jackie's calls and I'm getting more keen as I realise I could probably manage the phone too if I wanted.

Hi Jackie,

Apologies if someone has answered your questions already,
but I haven't seen a reply.

To delete a contact, open it, and double tap on edit.
Then flick with three fingers to the right.  Your iPhone
should say something like "rows 3 to 8 of 8".  The delete
contact option should have appeared after "add field".
If for some reason flicking with three fingers to the
right doesn't work initially, flick with one finger until
you're a little further down the list of fields already
visible.

You'll see that you already have some options to delete
different numbers without doing the 3-fingered flick, but
this will leave you with a blank contact unless you use
the delete contact option.

There are a couple of ways to answer calls.  You can
either do a 2-fingered double tap which is the quickest
if you are comfortable with the gesture. If not though,
then you can use the standard flick right or left with
one finger gestures to navigate the screen.  You will see
a "slide to answer" option.  Double tapping on this (with
one finger) will also answer the call. This sounds longer
but, as I say, you may find you're able to accomplish it
quickly enough if the 2-fingered double tap is giving you
problems.

I'm afraid I don't know how to turn the voicemail off on
o2.  Could it be somewhere in the message settings when
you ring the 901 number? Alternatively, are you able to
change either there or on the phone itself how long it
takes for the voicemail to kick in? You could always
lengthen this interval if so.

Hope this helps.

Ed

Well, all the contacts are in now, but I have a few
questions please?

1.  How do I remove an unwanted contact?

2.  What does one do to delete read or unwanted messages
to be discarded?

3.  I'm still having finger gesture problems, so don't
always manage to answer the phone until Voicemail kicks
in.  As I'm on O2, what is the number to turn Voicemail
off.  I know it is 901 to dial it.

Getting there, but finding it a bit frustrating at times.
For example, I don't like the way a text message alert
will sound when you are talking to someone on the phone,
and VoiceOver reads out the text message you have just
received.  Is there a way of stopping it?

Thanks for your help as ever.

Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns
