Sandy, Flick left or right to the message and do not touch the screen again. You will here the subject, the date, how many messages in the thread and a slight pause and then it will read however many lines you have specified for the first message in the thread if there are more than one, or just the one message if it is not part of a thread. The trick is to be patient and not touch the screen again. having said that, it seems like some messages do not read the preview until I have flicked away and then back to it. HTH, Richard

I still cannot getVO to read the preview pane. Someone said flick right or left; that only moves me to the next message. Holding my finger on the message simply produces the hint about the Action options. And yes, I have a number of lines specified. for Sent from my iPhone On Sep 21, 2012, at 11:33 AM, Sieghard Weitzel <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Sandy, Just to add to Richard's and Jeff's answers, the 3-finger pull down to refresh is part of the new "Action" rotor setting which means the gesture is available if your rotor is set to "Actions". Please note you don't really have to do anything to set it since the "Action" setting is the default rotor settings when you open mail and are in the list of emails. You can do a single finger swipe down or up to go to "Delete", then simply double tap and the message is deleted. You can, of course, move the rotor away from Actions to, for example, characters if you want to use the flick down to read somebody's name/email address letter by letter. Also, regarding your question about that word you couldn't understand, anytime this happens if you set the rotor to characters you can review what Voiceover just said letter by letter simply by flicking down with a single finger and it will read letter by letter.

Yet, under Preview I have the choice for "2 lines" selected I have Hints enabled and am holding my finger on the message long enough to hear the "hint, "slide up or down to select the custom action." <!--[if !supportLists]-->2. <!--[endif]-->Just below I-Clouds there is a button that is my e-mail address. I click it and then I find choices like, Mail, Calendars, notes, archived messages. Each has a choice of off or on. Anyone know what these mean? <!--[if !supportLists]-->3. <!--[endif]-->Below these there is a heading that says something like, "phase deleted message in your All Mail folder." I can't quite tell what the first word is of this sentence is and I don't know what it means. <!--[if !supportLists]-->4. <!--[endif]-->If one chooses the manual setting under Fetch New Data, , how does one then fetch messages manually if there is no longer a Refresh button in e-mail? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
