Hi again, Alan. Put a space between the first and second thing in the field you're at. Make sure your rotor is set to Words, then double-tap to get yourself to either the start or end of the field. Set to rotor to Edit, then swipe up or down to find the Select option and double-tap it. VO will tell you what's been selected. Swipe up or down to find the Cut option and double-tap it. VO will confirm that text was cut. Swipe left or right to get to the field where you want to paste. If you're still in Edit mode, swipe up/down to find Paste, then double-tap that. Your text should be pasted. I think I've got it about right. Garth Humphrey has a podcast on the rotor at www.iblindtech.com; David Woodbridge has one on www.applevis.com as well. The rotor isn't bad. It's the blasted pinch out to select/pinch in to deselect thing that's a pip. HTH, Dani

I've had quite a few occasions where I've been entering text such as a user name and password and neglected to move the focus to the next field before entering the next entry. So I end up with the user name and password mashed together in the user name field or I end up with the phone number I'm texting to and the text message mashed together in the send to field. I know it's possible to use the rotor to highlight the second field's text, cut it, and then paste it to the proper field but I need specific instructions on how to do this. I've tried getting the rotor set to edit, then swiping up and down to get to select but once I've done this, I've no idea how to mark the text I want to select. I feel like I've got the general concepts down but I can't quite figure out the specific steps to highlight, then cut and paste. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, if anyone can recommend a good podcast on using the rotor, I'll gladly download it and study it.
