The Secrets Of Using A New IPad
You want to use the iPad more, but you might get stuck with newer technology. Don’t fall into the habit of using it just for playing games. Your iPad is capable of so much. Learn what you can do from this article, and start on your adventure.
When the iPad freezes up, do a soft reboot. Hold down both the power and home buttons for a few seconds. Wait for your iPad to reboot. If you simply want to make an app close, depress the home button by itself for several seconds.
Change the settings in your inbox so you’re able to see more than a couple of lines in an email. Go to your mail settings under the general heading. Change this to “5 lines.” It will be easier to go through your emails if you can eliminate the unimportant ones right away.
Iphone Charger
The iPhone charger was NOT build for the iPad. Your iPad requires higher wattage to charge than an iPod does. Charging your iPad with an iPhone charger will end up taking nearly twice as long. You should use the charger that came with the iPad.
When your password is entered 10 times, your iPad erases – is this a function you’d like to turn on? By using this setting, all of your information will be erased after 10 failed password attempts.
On your email, you will notice that the default only allows for two visible lines. It is helpful sometimes to get a preview of the email contact. Just click on Settings and then Mail. Go to Mail, Contacts, and Calendar to adjust Preview Mail Options to add more lines.
“Ding!” Does the chiming of your iPad whenever you receive another email drive you crazy? You can shut off that feature. Tap on “Settings”, and then select “General”. Tap on the Sounds option. Turn off sounds for New Mail or reduce the volume.
Do you wish it were easier to access your Internet bookmarks? It is possible for your bookmark option to be permanent. Select Settings, Safari, and choose the Always Show Bookmarks tab.
If you need to mute an iPad, try this simple trick. Hold the volume-down key for a couple of seconds. You can pull this off faster than trying to fumble with the volume button each time you want to mute. Hold it again to return your iPad’s sound back to its previous level.
Are you concerned about where the hyperlinks will take you when browsing the web? There is a simple thing you can do. There’s no mouse on an iPad, so pointing at the link like you would on a PC is out. Instead, tap the link and hold your finger there. This will reveal its URL.
It is easy to copy/paste text section when working on your iPad. Press and hold the text and press Select. Tap the screen again (the text should be yellow) and hit copy. Then tap again to paste your text.
Shutter Button
When you’re snapping photographs, you may want to hold your iPad by its sides. This will cause your shutter button to go in and out, resulting in blurry pictures. Turn on the orientation lock. This allows the shutter button to easily be reached with your thumb. After you snap your photo, use your editor feature to shift your images or videos.
Do you want your lock key to stop your tablet screen from turning, or to mute the sound? Earlier iPads aren’t able to do this. iPads operating on iOS 4.3 or later have this capability. Holding the volume button will also give you the ability to eliminate sound from your iPad.
A bright screen drains your battery, so turn down the brightness. This is very useful if you are out and waiting for an important email. If you want the brightness lowered, look on the menu for the icon with a sun.
You should now be able to use your iPad more efficiently. It really is amazing how much the iPad can do. Continue learning, and be sure to keep abreast of the latest developments. New apps become available every day, so there is no end to what the iPad can do for you.
