Very quick survey

There's an answer missing from the first question. 'I'm a bloke, I'll work it out myself'....
....
...
... Then when that doesn't work, I'll refer to the manual when no ones looking.

The questions cover too many things for a single answer to each question.

If I got a new phone camera I'd probably just play with it (perhaps a glance at he guide to see how the get the back off it without breaking it to put the sim in). If it was a bed I'd look at the instuction leaflet on how to assemble it.

Likewise a new activity - if I were planning on learning to drive I'd get one to one tuition, learning to roller skate I'd just go for it. Other things you might read about, join a club or get a bit of advice from a mate.

In other words if you want specific answers to a question it has to be specific in nature.

Done.
