Entering lowercase and uppercase letters
By default, the first letter of each sentence

appear until after you finish typing the
first word and press
Space
or
Return
.
To enter other uppercase letters, do one of
the following:
•
Press
Shift

don’t need to press and hold Shift while
entering a letter.
•
Press
Shift
twice to turn on
Caps
Lock

of the desired character. You don’t need

•
Press
Option

TIP
Some fields that display a right arrow—for
example, the Attendees field in Calendar or
the Categories field in Contacts or Tasks—are
selection fields, not text-entry fields. In a
selection field, press
Center
or
Right
to view
additional options.
TIP
If a field displays both a right and a left
arrow, it is not a text-entry field. Instead, it is a
field for which a list is available (see Selecting
options in a list).
