Get More From Your Ipad With This Article

By John Jacobs


An iPad is a great gadget. It allows you to sing along, type, record yourself, draw, and even more. However, if you don't have thorough knowledge about an iPad, then you can't completely utilize it. Keep reading for some solid tips about using the iPad that you must know.

There is a way that you can check all the running applications that you have at a given time. Double clicking on your Home button will bring up a bar along the bottom of the screen displaying all of your currently running apps. Just click the app you wish to switch to, if you so desire. Swipe downward on the screen to make the bar disappear.

Be aware of the amount you are spending to purchase apps for your iPad. The convenience of buying apps makes it quite easy to spend a lot of money without realizing it. Therefore, you should closely watch your spending.

The little beeps every time you get an email can be quite annoying. Are you aware that this can be turned off? Just go to Settings then General. You should then select the Sounds menu. Find the New Mail sound and adjust it to your preference.

Are you sick of your iPad asking you to become part of a Wi-Fi network? Then go to settings and eliminate the possibility. An option that asks you if you want to join networks exists and it can be changed. Choose that and you'll quit getting bothered by the invites that are incoming.

Does tapping the bookmark menu take too much time? You can eliminate this annoyance by turning the bookmarks bar on permanently. Just click on Settings, then Safari, then turn on Always Show the Bookmarks Bar.

Taking care of that expensive new iPad is a very smart strategy. Screen protectors are purchased by many people. The screen is protected from damage by a thin film of plastic. However, it's important that you clean your iPad's screen with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Do not use any harsh cleaning agents to clean your iPad.

It is easy to quickly mute your iPad. The original iPad did not have a simple mute button. When the 4.3 came out they did add the ability to mute using the lock switch to silence the iPad. Hold down the volume-down button to mute your iPad.

To copy and paste quickly on your iPad, try tapping and holding the text you want, then choosing Select. Then press copy, go to another application, then press and hold again. Now you will have an option for paste. For an entire paragraph, you need to press four times.

Muting the iPad is fast and easy. When the iPad first came out, you couldn't quickly mute it. Now, you can mute the sound easily with very simple steps. If you want to mute the sound, just hold down the volume-down button.

There is an iTunes store on your iPad, and there is actually quite a bit to it. If you are interested in learning, try out the iPad's iTunes U application. It houses many educational podcasts on any topic you could possibly imagine.

You now know how to use your iPad in a variety of ways. Keep all of these tips in mind and be sure to share them with loved ones who also have their own iPad. Helping others with the knowledge you have also will help yourself.
