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.

Using your iPad to watch films, play music and play games can significantly shorten the life of the battery. A simple way to get more play time out of each charge of the battery is to use a low screen brightness setting. You probably won't even miss using the brightest setting.

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.

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.

Screenshots are not hard to take on your iPad. To pull this off, just hold down both the "Home" and "Sleep" button simultaneously. This will take a screenshot and save it with your other pictures.

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.
