Hi Vincent, Just want to encourage you and say it will all work out for you in time. I got the IPhone just over two months ago and was experiencing the same frustration, this too shall pass and all of that. there is a knack to the tapping jesters and it just takes a bit of practice. My friends and family with sight cant manage it either. I have changed the double tap for text messaging though as it was too slow. Have also a cheap mini key board I got on ebay for 10 euro which is great. will purchase ortentic device some time when funds more plentiful. Now can any one help me out with tutorials on the MAC Pro and it is sitting on my table not doing much. Have spent hours trying to get it to just obey me but to no avail. thanks in advance. Going slightly mad here. elaine. spurious Sent from my iPhone On 10 Sep 2011, at 18:19, "Vincent stack" <vts@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > hello folks > > have this iphone 4 and before i hop it off a wall can some one tell me how to > work it. when i want to select something i have to double tap it to open it. > is there an option to only tap once. and if so how do i do this. as sometimes > its not opening for me. and a sighted person has tried this and is having the > same problem. many thanks. > > regards > Vincent
