Correcting problems with tapping

Is your screen not responding to taps? Are you getting unexpected results when you tap? For example, when you tap the number keyboard icon, does the Find dialog box open instead? If this happens, it’s time to align the screen.

1	Open Digitizer Preferences:
	a. Go to the Home	screen.
	b. Select Prefs	.
	c. Select Digitizer.

2 Tap the targets on the screen as precisely as possible, and then select Done.

NOTE You need to tap at least three targets—maybe more if you don’t tap carefully.
