Hi Alan; I don't know if this applies here but, this is what I do.
When I am in text I want to select and, copy I turn the rotor to edit. Then, I do a double-tap and hold. When, the menu comes up and, I hit copy. After that, I go where I want to put the text and, double-tap and hold again. Then, another menu comes up with paste. However; I have never been successfully been able to do this 100pc. Hope this helps. Anthony Sent from my iPad On Jul 15, 2013, at 7:47 AM, "Alan Lemly" <wale...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am still having difficulty selecting and copying text on my iPhone 5.
