Read These Clever Tips For Using Your Ipad

By Abbey Deromer


The iPad is a modern device with many convenient features. It can organize documents, offers games and helps a user surf the Internet. The only downside is that it can take a good amount of time to learn all there is to know about using it. By following these tips, you will quickly become proficient.

You can access all of your running apps on your iPad. Simply double-click the Home button. A bar near the bottom of the screen will indicate which apps are in use. You may switch to another running app, just by tapping that app in that bar. Swipe downwards to hide the bar again.

You can easily see what apps are running on your iPad. Many of the apps the iPad runs are able to stay in the background when you're doing other things. If you would like to view the current apps that are running, double click the Home icon. This will show you the current apps at the bottom. Swipe your finger in a downward motion to close the window.

If you have safety concerns should your iPad fall into the wrong hands, set the password to delete your personal data if someone enters the wrong password over and over. All of your data will disappear if someone makes ten failed attempts to enter the password.

When your password is entered 10 times, your iPad erases - is this a function you'd like to turn on? This erases everything stored on the iPad if the password is entered incorrectly ten times.

Shortcuts will help you send messages quickly. You can add a full stop and a space by tapping on the space button twice. This lets you avoid doing it manually and you can send many more messages to friends.

Are you worried about possibly losing your iPad? Simply open Settings, then iCloud. Enter your ID for Apple at the base of the screen. You will see the notation: FIND MY IPAD. Turn this function on. This way, if your iPad does get lost, all you have to do is visit iCloud.com.

Does it seem like a pain to tap on the bookmarks icon every time you want to access your favorite websites? Remedy this by having the bookmarks bar turned on permanently. In Settings, open Safari and select the option to always show the bookmarks bar. Simply turn it on.

Isn't it irritating when you encounter a hyperlink on your iPad, and you are unable to determine where it will take you? Here's an easy tip to solve this problem. Since hovering over a word isn't possible, you'll need to press and hold the hyperlinked word. That will show you the URL from the hyperlink.

Your pages can be synced with iTunes to share documents with a Mac or PC. Sharing the documents you have isn't that big of a deal anymore because there's the ability for iTunes to work with any platform. Also, you can track and view your PDFs with ease.

The iPad has revolutionized the way we use technology. With so many features and applications, the possibilities of this device are nearly endless. This article has shown you how many functions the iPad has.
