Roslyn presumably you have set to read character by character but I am just thinking the othr thing is do you have predictive text turned on because if you do that will also prevent you moving number by number. To check if predictive text is turned on, hit the edit key and arrow up or down as the case may be and you will hear if predictive text is on. If it is then turn it off. Another way of turning predictive text on and off is by pressing the hash key, bottom right, twice quickly in succession so maybe you accidentally did that one day.

This should work but I could do it another way up until a number of days ago and can't figure out what has gone wrong.

So, whenever i want to read a phone number in my contacts menu i enter on the person's name and scroll down to edit on the menu and press the so called "enter button" on my phone. On doing this, i use my right arrow key and it reads out to me each number individually. Hope this helps, Seoirse ----- Original Message ----- From: Roslyn Allman To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, May 30, 2009 11:17 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Problem in contacts on N70 Hi Eleanor, Thanks for this. Had a problem though. Couldn't follow your instructions, after settings should I go into phone? There was no general just under settings.

How would I go about fixing the problem if it was what you suggested? Thanks Roslyn ----- Original Message ----- From: ELEANOR BURKE To: vip_students@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 9:30 PM Subject: [vip_students] Re: Problem in contacts on N70 Teach me to read the headers of my e-mails Roslyn. Actually I use Supernova and I do not know how to do that so go straight to the body and do not always read subject when the e-mail is closed. How about maybe your standby screen is set to active with all the icons going across. If this is the case that arrow key for cursoring across letter by letter does not work kthen but moves you across tab by tab. Just a thought.

Eleanor, I'm using an N70. This was in the subject of my first mail, apologies I didn't repeat it in the body of the mail. I haven't brought it back to the store. There's no Vodafone shop where I live.

I know you are very good with your mobile and have answered complex questions in the past which leaves me wondering. Sounds a crazy thing to say but have you asked them in the store? I would like to help if I can so if you can give more info.

Usually when I go into my contacts I can enter into the contact information to go through the details first name, last name, telephone, mobile, etc. When I get to the mobile or telephone number I am looking for I can usually scroll to the right to go through the number digit by digit. Now I can't. When I press the button to scroll to the right it just brings me to the next contact in my address book. This is quite inconvenient as I can't retrieve detailed information about my contacts. Anybody any ideas?
