Hi Carolyn, I am sorry to say it, but it must be user-error, there has been no change to how you delete messages. I suspect somehow this is connected to your Recent Call issue and that your rotor is simply not set to Actions. When you are in the Messages app and in the main list of text messages, go to one you want to delete. Now turn the rotor either left or right and make sure you do so until you hear "Actions", now flick down with one finger and you will hear Voiceover say "Delete", double tap on this and you will be prompted to confirm whether you want to delete the message. Also, make sure your phone's screen is clean, a dirty screen can do funny things to gestures. Do you have your phone locked to portrait mode? If not I would advise you to do so, touch the status bar like the time, then swipe up with 3 fingers for the control centre, swipe right until you hear "Lock rotation" and if it says "Off", double tap on that to turn It on. If you are in your messages app and you don't hold the phone upright so the rotation changes to landscape then a swipe down which is what you would do to switch the rotor to "Actions" would simply become a swipe right in landscape mode and take you to the next message.

Bottom line, how do I do each? I have been deleting texts, but somehow this morning, when I tried, I haven't been able to, even though, I closed out messages and went back in, even ended up on maps from Messages? Go figure. So, I had to close both. Thanks for any help. If you pray, don't worry; if you worry, don't pray, Carolyn -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
