The Greatest Features Of Your New Ipad

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.

You will be using VPN networks if you are trying to get in contact with remote servers. This can be activated from the network tab under settings. You will be able to put in a server address and then your user name. If you aren't sure of your server address, contact the network administrator.

If you've ever been interrupted by your iPad at a bad time you likely want to know how to silence it quickly. You can mute your volume quickly by pressing and holding on the volume down button until the sound is turned off. If you need a mute button, change your settings so your lock orientation button becomes a mute button.

You need to be aware of how to properly take care of your iPad. Never use your iPad in bright sunlight and do not leave it in your hot car. Your battery will slowly start to hold less of a charge if it gets hot too much. Don't let it get wet either. Do yourself a favor, and buy a padded cover that will protect your precious device.

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.

If you find yourself in a situation where you must mute sound on your iPad, try this trick. Just depress the volume button for a couple of seconds. This will allow you to get the job done fast and efficiently. To restore your volume, hold down the volume down button again.

iPads are great for music, but are you familiar with podcasts? These are radio presentations that are between two minutes and two hours in length, and they cover a variety of subjects. If you ever want to listen to something else besides music while you are commuting, consider listening to podcasts. No matter what your interests are, you can bet there is someone making a podcast to suit you.

The quickest way to paste and copy on the iPad is to tap and select the needed text and hold your finger on it for a few seconds. Now, pick copy and go to another application and tap while holding down again. A menu comes up and you can press paste. In order to paste an entire paragraph, you must tap four times.

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.
