Home screen scrolling

everyone can swipe their home screen down but i still do it sideways and ive updated it. can someone tell me how to do it please

You swipe sideways to scroll through your home screens.  If you have iOS 5, you swipe down to display the notification center.

  • Issue in usability of Microsoft lumia 535 - Behavior of Key '- ' , on bottom right corner of home screen, is ambiguous.

    Hi All,
    I am new to this forum. And I may have incorrectly raised my concern here - over the usability aspect 'Microsoft lumia 535' mobile phone. Please help - to forward my concern to the correct forum in that case.
    I faced issue in using the key '->' on bottom right corner of phone's home screen (scroll down on the home screen to use the key). Clicking the key '->' should ideally take to the screen to it's right where all the applications are listed. As per known
    behavior of earlier phones of the lumia series like 630,525 etc.
    However, the behavior is ambiguous, sometimes the click on '->' takes to its right screen, and sometimes it refreshes the home screen. And sometimes there is no impact of the click. The behavior is thus improper and provides bad experience in using it.
    Earlier I thought this defect is specific to the phone I purchased, but further I analyzed other 'Microsoft lumia 535' - and the same issue was observed in all the other pieces of lumia 535.
    Please let me know, if it is issue and is already known, or if the behavior is intentional then what is the reason for the same?
    Regards,
    Azmun

  • HT201365 I just downloaded IOS 7. In my old software if I wanted to get to spotlight to find something I just scrolled from left to right from my home screen. That doesn't work now...so how the heck to I get to spotlight with this new system???

    I just upgraded to IOS 7. Prior to that upgrade if I wanted to get to spotlight search I just scrolled left to right from my home page and got it. Now...that doesn't work. How do I get to spotlight/search with IOS 7? Sheesh...why change such an easy basic thing anyway??? Can someone let me know please.

    Now, you get to Spotlight by swiping down from the home screen, but do not start the swipe at the top of the screen.  Start it in the middle somewhere.

  • My new iphone 5 screen does not rotate from portrait to landscape.  It is stuck in portrait.  I checked and its not locked (double clicked home button scrolled over and the circle arrow does NOT  have lock inside it).

    My screen refuses to rotate (the home screen).  I already double clicked home button and scrolled over, the circle arrow does NOT have the lock inside it.  I went thru all the settings and can find nothing to try and fix this.  Do I need to send the phone back?  Is it broken?  I just got it yesterday.  It has not been damaged in any way.  Please help.

  • Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

    I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

    Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
    Anyone help you with your fix yet?

  • Can no longer add bookmarks to my home screen

    I can no longer add bookmarks to my home screen.  As before, I get the choice of "Add to Bookmarks" and "Add to Home Screen", and after chosing "Add to Home Screen", I am asked to save the name as before, but the bookmark is not saved (or at least I can't find any trace of it amongst my home screen bookmarks, even after scrolling up, down and to the right).
    As I already have quite a few (but not excessive) bookmarks, most in folders, I tried deleting some and then trying to add a bookmark, but without success.  Restarting doesn't help.  Problem was there before the latest software update, but was not fixed by update.
    Anyone have an idea how to fix this? 

    Hi Carolyn
    I have just spent 3 hours reading and looking for an answer and came across your article here in respect of a similar situation I have with bluetortilla.
    I recently dropped my macbook and had to have a new diskdrive replaced. I am a total novice in IT and had a long time in resetting and reconfiguring all my information and migrating my back up from my time machine.
    However, since then I have been having alot of issues with Safari which I have never had in the 3 years I have been using Mac.
    My problems currently are as follows, after each time I quit safari and when I close the mac and rebooting it.
    1.    All my history is not there when I re-open Safari. Only the history from when I last migrate the data from my time machine is there. However, after following the your instructions to bluetortilla, the old history is now deleted and the history of today remains.
    2.    Everytime I add a new bookmark and save a webpage into this bookmark, it disappears every time I quit and reopen Safari.
    3.    Similarly, even when I save a new webpage into an existing bookmark, this particular webpage disappears when I quit and reopen Safari.
    4.     I also deleted some of the default webpage in bookmark bars, but again these reappears when I quit and reopen Safari.
    All-in-all, everytime I delete or add into my bookmarks during a session on Safari, seems to disappear the next time I quit and reopen Safari. Previously all my histroy disappear but it seems ok now after following your instructions here.
    Would appreciate your advise and help here. It has been frustrating that I have not been able to save any webpages into my bookmarks or create any new bookmarks without it all disappearing the next time I open Safari.

  • How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

    How can I get rid of that irritating contact/favorites across the top of the home screen?

    Actually, that's not on the Home screen, it is on the multitasking or App Switcher view so only shows up when you enter that mode (so I'm not to clear as to why it is so "irritating", but whatever).
    Settings app > Mail,Contacts,Calendars > scroll down to CONTACTS section] > Show in App Switcher

  • Home screen and open apps

    Some thoughts/suggestions after playing with Passport for two days:
    - Home Screen:  confusion of "home screeen":  in browser "Add to Home Screen".  it refers to the first left scroll of "Open Apps" screen. But the mini icon at the bottom of the screen the home sign refers to the left most screen - open apps.
    - Is there a way to customize which screen as "home" screen? Personally I don't like to go back to "open apps" when I swipe up my current app. I would rather stay to e.g the one next to it with desktop of icons. In most cases I don't bother to manage the open apps screen unless I do need to switch between them. Those big icons create distraction so I would rather hide them(and call them back when necessary).
    - switch/transition between different apps:  not quite natural/smoothly.  Need more fade in/out effect to make it feels perfect.

    If you can't find the App Store app on any of your homescreens or app folders, and you can't find it via the spotlight search screen (swipe your first home screen to the right), then is it hidden by Settings > General > Restrictions > Installing Apps being set 'off' ?
    If not then have you tried a reset to see if you can find it after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    The reset (and/or getting the App Store app back on screen) might also get the apps to start downloading again. If it doesn't then check if there are any outstanding downloads in the iTunes store app that need to complete first e.g. is there anything shown in the Downloads tab in it

  • Is it possible to change the display order of Apple TV applications on my home screen?  i.e. move Watch ESPN toward the top, move the WSJ to the bottom, etc.

    Is it possible to change the display order of Apple TV applications on my home screen?  i.e. move Watch ESPN toward the top, move the WSJ to the bottom, etc.  That way you won't have to scroll all the way down to the bottom to access an applicaton you use most often.

    Yes. Just select and hold until the app starts to jiggle and then you can move it.

  • Repeated return to the home screen

    My iPhone is constantly returning to the home screen when I am using the safari or maps. Network (Wi-Fi/Edge) does not matter. Any suggestions. thanks

    I am having the same issue with my iPhone. Seems to happen on either Edge or Wifi. Also seems to happen when I am pinching or scrolling around the screen (at least in Safari).
    This has started to happen more often (now to the point of being annoying) in just the last couple of days. My phone is not quite a month old.
    Did a reset of settings to see if this helps at all.

  • ATV 5.0 Home Screen

    This is a re=post of an earlier post that was removed by the moderators.
    I did the update and all appears fine.  While its nice that they provided 5.0 for ATV2's I do hope they provide a way to organize the home screen.  Now with the menu nesting gone for the former "Internet" menu, it really provides for a messy and arduous user experience on an ATV2 due to the 720 resolution as everything will not fit even on a 50" screen, so I have to scroll significantly to see some of the channels I use.  I understand the "channel" idea that's coming but at this stage the home screen has *all* of the default channels displayed.  There are some I will never want/need that i have to surf by to get to my preferred channels.
    The moderators removed my earlier post and advised me that they had done it because I had not asked a question, so I will now ask the question that I was hoping my earlier post would address.  Does anyone know if there is a way to clean up and organize the 6.0 Home Screen in 5.0?  Am I missing something?

    Doesn't appear to be a way at this time.

  • Restore ovi store icon/app to home screen

    Hi,
    I accidentally deleted the OVI STORE icon/shortcut  on one of my homescreen.
    Is there a way to add the shortcut back to the home screen? Please advise.
    I am aware that I can still access OVI STORE from the menu option but would prefer to use the shortcut app on my home screen.
    Thank You

    Long press the widget you want to add ovi store to, select option edit, choose application, then scroll through your apps and select Ovi Store, it will then appear in the widget !
    Assuming that you have a Symbian^3 phone as you have more then one homescreen !
