Tips And Tricks For Your iPad

w w w. i p a d i n fo o n l i n e . c o m

Anyone with half a brain can use iPad at its basic level. Well, iPad, in fact, is very

basic, even 2-year old kids can work well with it.

There's no such thing as learning curve, and definitely, if you have used an

iPhone before, using an iPad for the first time is a day at the beach.

It is made to be that way.

But still, even when things have already been simplified by Apple for you, there are still some things about iPad use that

may take time before you know. Here are a few.

Soft Reset

Apple's iPad does not necessarily come with an insurance that it will perform the same

way it did the first time you bought it.

Although there are no moving parts in the device, which generally means the device

deteriorates very slowly if at all.

There are still some risks though that some of its parts may not function in the long run. In case something goes awry with iPad, you can always find consolation in its Soft Reset

function.Soft Reset comes in very handy when the

system freezes.

It can be performed by just holding the top or power button simultaneously with the

front or Home button for a couple of seconds.

This will force your device to restart. Not happy with how an app is working and want

to force quit it? Hold the Home button the same way, this

time without holding the power button, and the device will exit any running app.

Cut- and Copy-Pasting

It's a pain to copy long texts on iPad so Apple created an easy solution that will let

you copy an entire paragraph without necessary stretching the blue knobs that

appear on your screen. To do this, tap any text four times and this

will highlight the entire paragraph.This trick can be done only though if you are copying an editable text. Otherwise, you're

stumped.

Importing Free eBooks

There are still some free things in this world. Free eBooks on Apple's iBooks for example.

If you want to download old books that have fallen out of copyright, you'll find that there

is an extensive collection of free eBooks downloadable on iPad.

So long as you stick to the classics, you're a happy man with iBooks.

Easy Mute

When embarrassing moments are on the horizon because you frequently forget to turn off the volume of your multimedia device, you'll find that iPad gives you a

break. It has an easy mute function that allows you

to automatically turn the volume off. For two seconds, press the volume down

and you'll have peace and quiet back.

Supersized Screenshots

Now the screenshot of your driving simulator would look more like a windshield

than a tiny keyhole. Take giant screenshots on your iPad by holding the power and home buttons

simultaneously for half a second.

Bringing the Virtual Keyboard Back

Switching between keyboards – real and virtual keyboards – is not as hard as many people confess. You only have to hit the

eject key on the real, physical keyboard to bring the virtual one up.
