Ah okay, I'll try that because it seems like it may be easier for me. If I just move my finger around on the screen to find what I want do I still double tap it after I find it to activate it though?

Hi Troy, They would would be flicking and exploring by touch. You can put your finger down on the screen and move it around until you locate the item you wish to activate, or you could use the flicking to move from item to item until you locate the item you want to activate.

I may've misunderstood though because I think my brain was alreadyon overload from what little bit I tried to do on my own before we gottogether; if there are 2 ways to work with a touch screen though what wouldbe the other way besides flicking or swiping? Btw somebody in this message thread told me to think of it more likeflicking a piece of dust off of my screen instead of swiping, that was theexact words that Laz used to describe what to do. Now it's just learning how to do that flick successfully, I can already tell from what went on yesterday afternoon though that this is going to get quite frustrating before I finally catch on.

Aside from that practice, practice, and more practice. smile. Norman. This is my list account. If you need to contact me pleas email norbking@xxxxxxxxx Or call or text 717-516-1135 Norman.

Does anybody have any useful tips besides just practice?One big problem I have is that I have a home button, a previous apps button, and a back button across the bottom of my screen and almost every time I go to hit the back button, which is the button on the left, all 3buttons end up getting voiced and I have to try again. I guess I have kindof a heavy-finger syndrome smile. Troy No virus found in this message.
