Q: How can I make sure that my PalmPilot responds to input from my stylus?
Be sure to recalibrate your screen periodically. Go to the Preference application and tap on General. Select Digitizer from the pull-down menu, and tap the center of each target. Your PalmPilot is now calibrated for tip-top performance.
Q: If I somehow damage my PalmPilot screen, how long will it take to get it repaired?
Turn-around time for repairs is about five working days. For complete repair information, visit our Web site at www.usr.com/palm/custsupprepairfaq.html. Repair information is also available 24 hours a day via fax-on-demand at 800-762-6163. For more information, call Technical Support at 847-676-1441.
Q: Is it possible to activate and deactivate sounds on my PalmPilot?
Sure. Tap on the Preferences/General application. For sound, make sure the System, Alarm, and Game Sound boxes are checked. For silence, uncheck one or all of them.
Q: What's the ShortCuts function and how do I use it?
For words or phrases you use a lot, your PalmPilot includes seven defined Graffiti ShortCuts (i.e., date stamp is "dt", breakfast is "br"). To activate ShortCuts in any application, tap to define an insertion point and draw the ShortCut stroke (l). Now enter the ShortCut, such as "br" for breakfast. More importantly, you can create your own ShortCuts by tapping on the Applications button, then on Preferences. Now tap on ShortCuts and follow the prompts in the ShortCut Entry box.
Q: When should I change my PalmPilot's batteries?
The battery-level indicator of your PalmPilot is a bit like the gas gauge in a car. If you check the battery level frequently, you'll get to know how your PalmPilot responds. Delayed Graffiti response and slower movement between applications could very well mean your batteries are low. To keep your PalmPilot organizer running super-smoothly, replace them regularly.
