Application problems377Application problemsI can’t get my handheld torecognize my handwriting. Make sure you have turned on Palm On-screen Writing.See “On-Screen Writing preferences” in Chapter 18. For your handheld to recognize handwriting input with thestylus, you need to use Graffiti writing. See “Using Graffitiwriting to enter data” in Chapter 3. Write Graffiti strokes for letters in the left side and thestrokes for numbers in the right side of the screen. Make sure that Graffiti is not shifted into extended orpunctuation modes. See “Using Graffiti writing to enterdata” in Chapter 3. See “Graffiti tips” in Chapter 3 for tips on increasing youraccuracy when you write Graffiti characters.Problem SolutionI tapped the Today button, butit does not show the correctdate.Your handheld is not set to the current date. Make sure the SetDate box in the Date and Time Preferences screen displays thecurrent date. See “Date and Time preferences” in Chapter 18for more information.I know I entered some records,but they do not appear in theapplication. Check the Categories pick list (upper-right corner). ChooseAll to display all of the records for the application. Check Security and confirm that Private Records is set toShow private records. In To Do List, tap Show and see if Show Only Due Items isselected.I am having problems listingmemos the way I want to seethem. If you cannot manually arrange the order of the memos inthe list screen, check the Memo Preferences setting. Makesure that Sort by is set to Manual. If you choose to view your memos alphabetically on PalmDesktop software and then perform a HotSync operation,the memos on your handheld still appear in the orderdefined in the Memo Preferences setting. In other words,the sort settings you use with Palm Desktop software arenot transferred to your handheld.
