Can't use three-finger double tap zoom.

iPad 2 version 6.3.1.
Couple of days ago, I tried to use the three-fingered, double-tap zoom, but it didn't work. Now, being a middle-aged person, I like to use this feature. So, tried again. Didn't work. Double tapped all over the screen. Nada. Went to Settings > General > Accessibility > Zoom. Zoom was on. Turned it off. Turned it on. Didn't work. Turned it off; turned it on again. Nope. Turned off the iPad. Turned on the iPad. Nuh-uh. Turned on, turned off the iPad again. Nah. Tried triple tapping the Home button to turn Zoom off and on again. Zilch. (Ordinary double-tap enlarge works, and so does Pinch to Zoom.)
I'm almost ready to reset the iPad, but that is such a drastic step, I thought I'd try here first. Any thoughts?
-- yah

So if you double tap with three fingers and drag up the amount of zoom will increase. If you double tabp with threed fingers and drag down the amount of zoom will decrease. It is possible to have so little zoom that it looks like none.
Is that possibly what you are experiencing?

  • Magic Mouse - three finger double tap dictionary - not working

    A three finger, double tap on my Magic Mouse will not activate a dictionary definition in any app. All other mouse gestures work fine. The keyboard combination for that feature works fine too. How can I get that three finger gesture to work?

    No workaround so far with this problem and also no posts in the Opera forums. Just have to wait until Opera includes this functionality in their next release.
    In the meantime you can help by joining the forum (takes a minute) and posting your concern. The more people that join and voice their complaint the faster something will get coded into their browser.

  • Three finger double tap doesn't work in "Preview"!

    It is unbelievable that "three fingers double taps" gesture doesn't work in Preview.
    looking definition in dictionay is useful when reading PDF in preview, but  I cann't get the pop up dictionay window by three fingers double tap a word.

    what exactly is your question?  This is not Apple's complaint department.

  • Three finger double tap not working

    Since updating to iOS 5 on my iPhone 3GS, the Zoom feature has stopped working.  (Actually, when I double tap with three fingers, the screen enlarges a few pixels.)  Any ideas on how to get this feature back?  So far, I've turned it on and off, rebooted the iPhone.

    Double tap with three fingers and KEEP your fingers on the screen after the second tap and then drag up or down.

  • Double tap zoom in iPhoto doesn't seem to work now??

      Used to be able to double tap zoom on my trackpad in iphoto.  Not anymore.  Have read other comments about this, any feedback?  Thanks. 

    I don't really  understand what the first part of your query is about. However: with respect to your query about uploading:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:   You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    There's a similar option in Outlook and many, many other apps.  If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running:
    For users of 10.6 and later:  You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation  which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu.
    Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and 10.5 Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    Show File:  a. On iPhoto 09 and earlier:  Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.    3.b.
    b: On iPhoto 11 and later: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Reveal in Finder -> Original. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • Auto single finger double tap

    Hi, i am a disabled useR, I have apps that want me to single finger double tap, i cannot do this, is there a way i can  use assistive touch I or something else to double tap for me?

    Yes you can. Go to Settings/General/Accessibility and tap on AssistiveTouch. Turn it on (if it's not already on).
    On that same screen, tap on "Create New Gesture". On the screen that shows up, record your new gesture (double-tap anywhere on the grey screen). Next tap the Stop button, then tap on the Save button. Give your gesture a name (like DT for double-tap). Tap on the Save button after naming your gesture. If you somehow mess up with recording the gesture or don't like the name or simply want to clear it, you can delete it by swiping it to the left on the AssitiveTouch setup screen where Custom Gestures is displayed. From then on, the gesture will be available in the AssistiveTouch menu under Favorites. You drag the Favorite gesture to the button you want to double-tab and the recorded action will be performed on the desired button.

  • Nightly for android reflow problems: enabling reflow on zoom, disabling double tap zoom?

    In the current Nightly for Android build:
    1) Page loads, but the font size is tiny
    2) Double tapping always zooms in to the same zoom level
    3) Zooming out from maximum zoom reflows back to minimum zoom reflow
    4) No way to reflow for anything between maximum and minimum size
    So, is there a way to...
    a) Re-enable reflow on zoom, always reflowing the page to the appropriate zoom level
    b) Disable double-tap zooming, also allowing text reflow for any zoom level?

    I have this exact same problem with the Nightly Android build, but I cannot for the life of me find the Accessibility settings. Could you please tell me how to get to the Accessibility settings?

  • Flex 2 14 - Two finger tap for Right-Click not working (Two finger double tap works)

    I bought my Flex 2 14 a couple of weeks back.
    I want to enable Two-finger tap (not click) for right click.. Unfortunately it does not work.
    Weirdly, Two-finger DOUBLE tap works for right click.. 
    How do I get a two-finger tap? 
    I tried the regitry hacks from here (https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Yoga-Flex-Laptops-and/Yoga-2-Pro-Two-finger-tap-does-not-work/td-p/1406... but no luck yet. 
    Any help please. 

    I have found a solution but I am still annoyed I had to do my own tech work to get a common touch figure enabled. (By the way there's many threads out there on Synpatics drivers and touchpads not working right for many people on different machines.)
    Anyway, indeed the fastest fix is to modify a registry entry for Synaptics. Just open  the regisitry edit software on the Yoga and then go through the folders: HKEY LOCAL / Software / Synaptics / SynTP / Win8
    In "2FingerTapAction" all you need is to change the value from "0" to "2" - and presto two-finger tap is now a right click!
    Much easier than going through a driver install / uninstall routine or any other of the suggestions I've found out there.
    I wish Lenovo had this set up as a default. It's really a great gesture and it's quiet and fast.

  • Why would double-tap zoom stop working?

    I created a Pages document, into which I've put a number of photos. All are inline; longest dimension 1600 pixels, exported from Aperture at 200 dpi. (Liz Castro suggests max 1600 pixels so it will zoom to full screen.)
    I export as ePub. Formatting works. All pics are there, but when I double-tap a pic, it remains the same size, but is surrounded with a white border that fills the rest of the screen.
    Does anyone know what might be causing this? Thanks in advance.

    Hi David,
    Thanks. I downloaded it and it does, indeed, come up full page in landscape. The interesting thing is that is that other blogs show that much larger pics also work correctly.
    Liz Castro includes pics sized to 1600 x 1200, and which also come up full screen landscape when double-tapped
    http://www.pigsgourdsandwikis.com/2011/01/expandible-photo-blocks-in-ibooks-on.h tml
    While I see that your approach works, the above example suggests that there are other ways, that don't require this kind of work around.
    Many thanks for your thoughts and examples, but I'm afraid I must be doing something wrong at another point in the process. Right now I'm reinstalling Pages to see if that helps. (Earlier I deleted plists, which didn't help.)
    Thanks again.

  • I can't close inactive apps - double tap home won't work

    I know how to close apps on my ipod, it just won't work.   When I double tap the home button, nothing happens - I can't get to that screen that lets me close the apps.  Any suggestions?  Thanks. 

    Did a bit more research - I guess its just normal as the 2g doesn't support multitasking so there are no apps running in the background.  Thanks IIIaass for the info about 2g vs 3g!
