While holding the phone with one hand, try moving the page around

I have an old iTouch that I’d like to sync to the Mac Book Air. When I try to

Also, you can explore the Air’s keyboard with a VO k combination. The key on
the bottom row left is the function key. The key to the right of that is the
control key. The key to the right of that is the option key. Pressing control
and option keys together make up the “Vo” keys.

If you have a Mac, you can purchase the Type2phone app and use it to enter text
into your phone. It is about $5 so it’s much more cost effective than an
external keyboard.
