Tapping and writing problems My handheld is not making any sounds. My handheld has frozen. Check the System, Alarm, and Game Sound settings. See "Sounds & Alerts Preferences" in Chapter 16. 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. Tapping and writing problems Problem When I tap the buttons or screen icons, my handheld activates the wrong feature. When I tap the Menu icon , nothing happens. I can't get my handheld to recognize my handwriting. Solution Calibrate the screen. See "Digitizer Preferences" in Chapter 16. Not all applications or screens have menus. Try changing to a different application. Try each of these in turn: s 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. s 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. s 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. s 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. s Run the Graffiti 2 tutorial application on your handheld for tips on increasing your accuracy when you write Graffiti 2 characters. 283
