How do i delete a letter rather than backspace

how do i delete a letter rather than backspace

If you  touch the end of the word, you get a magnified "bubble" that you can drag to the right edge of the character you want to replace, then one backspace deletes it and you type the correction. For straight typing ,it's easier just to use the delete key, but I sometimes use the bubble method when typing Latin, because I must enter a lot of long vowel signs that are a pain to retype.

  • I synced with iMac itunes and got many more contacts than I want on the iPhone. How can I delete multiple contacts rather than having to do so one at a time?

    I synced my iPhone with itunes and iMac and got many more contacts than I wanted on my iPhone. How can I delete quite a few of them at one time as opposed to deleting one at a time?

    iTunes does not handle the import of photos/videos from the iPhone's Camera Roll.
    If this is not the computer you sync your iPhone with, you should have been provided a warning message that your iPhone is associated with an iTunes library on another computer and when trying to transfer any iTunes content from a different computer, a warning message is provided indicating that all iTunes content on the iPhone will be erased first.
    When connecting an iPhone to iTunes on another computer, none of the options under the various tabs for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes are selected automatically. This means you had to select Sync Contacts under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes on your wife's computer.
    Assuming you are syncing contacts with a supported address book app on your computer, connect your iPhone to Tunes on your computer and without syncing, under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences below the Advanced section, select Contacts for replace info on this iPhone followed by a sync.
    For importing photos/videos from the Camera Roll which can be done with a computer that is not used for syncing the iPhone since syncing with iTunes is not involved.

  • My BT keyboard delete button now forward deletes rather than backspacing like it used to do. This happened after I got my iMac back from the hard drive replacement program. Any ideas how to return the keyboard to the default backspace?

    The good news after my hard drive was replaced during Apple's Seagate replacement program -- all my data and settings reinstalled seamlessly through Time Machine and my external hard drive. Bad news? My BT keyboard will now only forward delete when I hit the delete key rather than backward delete. I find this so ironic since I hated this feature when I switched from PC to Mac, but now I'm totally used to it. I tried resetting the default under system preferences, but it didn't help. Otherwise, keyboard works perfectly. This is so strange. Anyone have any suggestions? Oh -- and now I see my arrows don't work either.

  • When will Apple let us delete our purchaces rather than hiding them?

    Its kinda stupid that they do this... If i had a stupid app i dont want anyone to know about ever why cant i just delete it rather than hide it?

    AstroDude,
    Currently the Purchase History functions as a history, and like any history you can hide things in your past but you cannot delete them.
    If you would like to make a suggestion to Apple, you can use the Feedback page:

  • How to specify application by extension rather than mime type (e.g., docx as word, not xml)

    When I try to open a link to a file.docx or file.xlsx, FF sees it as an xml file and wants to open it in my default xml application. I can select Word or Excel (I have Office 2010 installed), but a) it doesn't remember that in the applications list, so I have to browse applications each time, or b) if I set it to always use that type, it tries to open docx in Excel or xlsx in Word, depending on last usage. How can I specify applications by file extension instead of seeing these as the same type of file?
    Thanks,
    Ian
    FF 15.0.1, Win 7, Office 2010

    I don't know if the source server sends the right mime type - it probably doesn't. In fact, now you mention it, I'm not sure I've tried this from any sites except one, which is the one giving me problems. I'll try contacting them about fixing their mime types. Assuming though that they can't or won't fix it, the question still remains - is it possible to set application by extension rather than by mime type?
    Yeah, I can definitely save it and open it, just trying to take the easiest possible route for a quick view.
    Thanks.

  • How to switch a realy once rather than repeatedly

    Hi,
    I am using a TB-2627 terminal block in a PXI-2527 relay multipleaxer and i am having trouble switching a relay.
    In the terminal block i have a simple pos and neg which goes out to a enable button on my rig. I want to open and close this relay. I have taken part of the relay switching example but no matter what i try, when i press "close relay" rather than just staying closed it keeps openeing and closing really fast continuously.
    Can anybody help me or share a bit of code that will enable me to simply keep the realy open or closed?
    Kind Regards,
    Kieran

    Hi!
       Just post your code! 
      I guess that switching is inside a while loop that is continuously launched...looking at your code would help!

  • How to export at 72 DPI, rather than 71.98 DPI

    Hi all,
    CS5, OS X 10.6.4
    Australia (system set to metric measurements)
    Images being exported from FW here have a 71.98 DPI resolution despite Document Image Size having Resolution set to 72DPI exactly.
    Any tips, workarounds?

    I like Jim's answer on this—i.e., a pixel is a pixel. If an application is attempting to render the image based on ppi (or dpi) information, then it's really performing a sort of previewing, or sizing simulation. And I'd look to see if that feature can be turned off.
    Mac's Preview application has long offered this option, under various names, and it can be turned on or off within Preferences. Here's how that preference appears in OS 10.6. It's the bottom option, "Size on screen equals size on printout", that accounts for pixel density in its image rendering. For example, an image set to 72 ppi will suddenly increase in size (on a typical screen) when this option is chosen.
    Speaking of Preview, it includes an option to adjust Resolution under the Tools > Adjust Size command. (I believe you'd want to deselect "Resample Image" before making any adjustments in this dialog.) If Fireworks is letting you down, perhaps this option could help you out in a pinch.
    It might be helpful here to know what application is providing you with the specific dpi information and/or what application is "receiving" these graphics. If the saved graphic is reopened in Fireworks, does Fireworks still indicate 72dpi? Is it simply rounding up? Does dpi fluctuate slightly between graphics of different pixel dimensions?
    Finally, if the metric system is somehow an issue here, have you tried using metric sizing instead? (Following is the Modify > Canvas > Image Size... dialog within Fireworks 8, with 72ppi being converted to 28.346 pixels/cm.)

  • How do I send a SMS rather than a iMessage message?

    I want to send a SMS message to my mothers phone (thats not a iPhone) from my iPhone. I have my mothers e-mail and Phone number in my contacts for her. So I hit messages and select my mothers name and then type my message. Tap send, then it says delivered. Everything hunkie doorie, au contraire. The message is sent to my mothers iPod not her phone. I still what to keep the e-mail so I can face time her iPod but I still want to text her on her phone. How can I send a message as a SMS rarther than a iMessage message?
    Thanks.

    You might try removing your mother's email address from her contact info on your phone. If that works you could set up a different contact (misspelled or somehow different) for her email to use with facetime. I used to do this all the time to more efficiently separate home/work/cell numbers. This might be a sloppy work around, but it might work until there are different options in the settings. This is just an idea. I really have no clue if it will work. Good luck.

  • How to view stills as individual rather than sequences in file browser

    i have a lot of stills, which happen to be numbered, and i need to browse them
    for use in motion 3. the file browser is showing them as numbered sequences.
    how can i defeat that behavior so i can see each individual image for import?
    thanks,
    BabaG

    Right down at the bottom right hand side of the File Browser, you will see two buttons. Click on the left hand one that looks like rectangles receding into the distance.
    That should fix it!

  • How can I append excel file rather than replace it?

    Hi,
    I have the attached VI set to write data to Excel, One case structure sends the data to cell B6, the other sends the data to cell B7. The problem is, the data is deleted from one cell when new data is added to another.
    I think I want to be able to append the data without deleting other cells. Any ideas?
    Thank you

    Toddzilla,
    There are a couple different ways to append to excel files.  A couple links that might get you going are:
    Can I Add New Data to an Existing Excel File Without Erasing Old Data?
    Append Data to an Excel Document Every Iteration Using Report Generation Toolkit
    Are you trying to write over cells B6 or B7, or are you trying to append within the cell itself?  
    Hopefully this can get you on the right track.  When I append to files I tend to insert rows or append to the end of the file.
