Scroll bar. Drag that down, screen goes up. I am going to make sense eventually.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Mice aren't backwards. You push up on the wheel and the viewport moves up, push down and the viewport moves down.
Touch makes sense too, you're dragging the document instead of moving the viewport.
Megan- I sent it to your profile address- I hope you got them
Thanks, I'm using them already!
I actually have to create content grids for my first project already and with basic things like finding "save as" taking forever I was a bit worried about looking like an idiot. (Not that that won't happen anyway.)
I KNOW WHAT IT IS. On the iPad and the iPod you are using a touchscreen so the idiom is different from a touchpad, and I think that's perfectly cromulent.
I had to dig out my iPod and scroll on it, then on my laptop's trackpad, then the iPod, then the laptop, before I realized that YES, you DO scroll differently on them! I just internalized it so completely that I didn't even realize it's opposite gestures.
On my Blackberry, when I am online and hit the "back" button, it tends to go back 2 pages. So if I go to Page A, then Page B, then to Page C, the hit "back" it goes to Page A. Any ideas. This also sometimes happens on my computer, but only on b.org, so I think this is a different problem.
Thank you, Gud. I was away from a mouse, and doubted myself.
My main problem is that I get texts twice.
Hmm. Are both of the notifications from the Google Voice app, or is one of them from the app and the other from your phone's messaging app? If the second, you can go to your google voice settings and tell GV to stop forwarding SMS messages to your cell phone. If you're getting two different notifications from the GV app, or texts are appearing twice in your inbox, I can't help you.
My only problem with the actual GV app is minor: you can't send a text message to multiple people at once. I use the feature very rarely, though, so it's no biggy. If I cared enough, I would pay $2 for an app that lets you do it. Otherwise I like it fine. The WEB app you get from the android browser through voice.google.com, on the other hand, is atrocious: super old-school looking. If you tell Dolphin to spoof an iPhone you can get the iPhone version, which is many times prettier, but it doesn't work perfectly, so I guess the iPhone web app uses special features of Safari somehow. Which just makes me wonder why those features haven't been implemented on android so android users can use the pretty version.
The iPhone GV app really is quite bad. It crashed on me a lot, and erased my text messages. Eventually I switched to GV Mobile+, which I liked a lot more. Setting it up to do push notifications was a bit of a project, but once it was done it worked perfectly and greatly improved the GV experience on the iPhone - enough that I finally convinced my wife to start using it, so hopefully we'll be able to phase out her $10/month texting plan in a few months too.
Gris,
I prefer to use Boxcar (iphone) for push notifications for Google Voice. Works great.
No, I've not got it set to forwards SMS anywhere--I see where I could send it to my email. I don't see any other option. I get it once as a normal text (and I can't see conversations there, because it doesn't track what I sent), and on the voice app. Wait, from the phone I see "notifications via text message". Let me switch that off.
I'm not sure what's wrong with this app. It looks kind of the same, except I don't get a menu. I can't dial from here, but I don't need to--I dial from the normal place. It's okay. It looks like an Android app, and the iPhone app looks like an iPhone app. I just wish there were a Galaxy Tab Wifi app.
