Palm III organizer doesn’t recognize my handwriting:
For your Palm III organizer to recognize handwriting input with
the stylus, you need to use the Graffiti
®
character strokes. See
“Writing With the Stylus” for information about how to write
Graffiti character strokes.
Make the Graffiti character strokes in the Graffiti writing area —
not on the display part of the screen.
Make sure you are writing the strokes for letters in the left-hand
side, and the strokes for numbers in the right-hand side of the
Graffiti writing area.
Make sure that Graffiti is not shifted into extended or punctuation
modes. See “Writing With the Stylus” for information about
shifting into and out of punctuation modes.
Tapping the screen buttons or icons does not activate the corresponding fea-
ture:
Recalibrate the digitizer. Choose Digitizer from the Preferences
application pick list and follow the directions on the screen.
When I tap the icon, nothing happens:
Not all applications or screens have menus. Try changing to a
different application.
A message appears stating that your Palm III organizer memory is full:
Delete unused memos and records. If necessary, you can save
these records on your computer using the Save Backup Copy
option that appears in the Delete dialogs.
Purge the Date Book and To Do List applications. This deletes
complete To Do items and past Date Book events from the
memory of your Palm III organizer. Note that you may need to
perform a HotSync operation to recover the memory.
If you have installed additional applications on your Palm III
organizer, remove them to recover memory.
Beamed data does not transmit:
Confirm that the 3Com connected organizers are between five
centimeters (approximately 2") and one meter (approximately 40")
apart, and that the path between the two devices is clear of
obstacles.
