Writing a Text on your Nokia N71 PC Suite

You have a choice between traditional and predictive text input. Traditional text input is indicated by a pencil icon at the top right of the display, while predictive text input is indicated by a speeding pencil icon in the same place.

The following is a concise guide to the use of traditional text input:

  • Press a number key (1???9) repeatedly until the desired character appears

  • There are more characters available for a number key than are printed on the key

  • If the next letter is located on the same key as the present one, wait until the cursor appears (or quickly move the joystick to the right to end the time-out period), and enter the letter

  • To insert a number, press and hold the number key

  • To switch between letter and number mode, press and hold the # key

  • To erase a character, press the Clear key. Press and hold the Clear key to clear more than one character

  • The most common punctuation marks are available under the number 1 key

  • Press the number 1 key repeatedly to reach the desired punctuation mark

  • To open a list of special characters, press the * key. Use the joystick to move through the list, and press Select to select a character
  • To insert a space, press the number 0 key. To move the cursor to the next line, press the number 0 key three times

  • To switch between the different character modes, press the # key

Predictive text input means that you can enter any letter with a single key press.

Predictive text input is based on a built-in dictionary to which you can also add new words.

The following is a concise guide to the use of predictive text input:
  • To activate predictive text input, press the Edit key, and select Predictive text on

  • This activates predictive text input for all editors in the device

  • To write the desired word, press the keys 2???9

  • Press each key only once for one letter

  • For example, to write ???Nokia??? when the English dictionary is selected, press 6 for N, 6 for o, 5 for k, 4 for i, and 2 for a. The word suggestion changes after each press

  • When you finish writing the word correctly, scroll right to confirm it, or press 0 to add a space

  • If the word is not correct, press the * key repeatedly to view each matching word, or press the Edit key, and select Predictive text and select  Matches

  • If the ? character is shown after the word, the word is not in the dictionary

  • To add a word to the dictionary, select Spell, enter the word using traditional text input, and select OK

  • The word is added to the dictionary. When the dictionary is full, a new word replaces the oldest added word

  • Start writing the next word

Note: To set predictive text input on or off, quickly press the # key twice.
