An iPad is a great gadget. You can do many things on it including typing, drawing pictures and singing along. Unfortunately though, you can't really max out its usefulness unless you have some basic knowledge about it. Keep reading for some useful tips on using the iPad, from people who have learned to master them.
Some newer iPads have a mute button instead of a lock orientation one. If you prefer the lock orientation feature, you should go into your settings and tap on the general section. You will be able to choose which function you want to associate with this button. Save your changes when you are done.
The iPad's default setting shows two lines of every email prior to it being opened. If you would rather see more before you open it, there is an option. To do this, go to Settings>Mail. Next tap on Contacts, then Calendar, and then change the options.
Do you need to switch from one app to another? You should activate the multitasking gestures in the general tab of your settings. You will then be able to swipe left or right to switch apps, swipe up to see your multitasking bar and pinch your fingers if you want to access your home.
The iPad does not come with a user manual, but sometimes it is useful to have one. If you're trying to figure out how to set a particular feature on your iPad, having the manual handy can help. To get a copy, simply visit the Apple website. There you will find a Pdf version that is easy to download.
Get an iPad cover as soon as possible. While the front glass is made of Gorilla Glass (a very strong material), it can still scratch. You want to protect your investment. Get a screen cover that will protect your iPad glass when you have it in your bag. This way you are sure that it is safe.
Do you like to email your iPad pictures to friends and family? There is a really simple way to do this. Just pick the photo you want to share, then press the arrow button in the top right corner. You will see a selection there that you can use to email the photo.
If you often use the Internet, don't forget the cloud functions your iPad offers. You can store extra information this way without it using up space in the iPad's flash memory. Make sure you store your most critical items on the cloud as well as the device.
One of the neat features of the iPad is the Photo Booth. You can get more enjoyment out of this feature if you use it on your friends and family. Tapping the "twirly camera" icon will let you use the camera on the back and take photos by tapping the shutter button.
