By Howard Z. Douglass


If you are learning hos to use your iPad, it's great to have a multitude of useful tips. There is so much an iPad can do. The tips below will make your iPad easier to use and more fun, too.

A soft reset is the perfect reboot for a frozen iPad. A soft reset consists of simultaneously hitting the home and power buttons. This will cause the tablet to restart. If you want an application to shut down, hold your home button down for several seconds.

Protect your children if they use your iPad to access the Internet. You can access restrictions from the general settings. When Restrictions is open, tap on Enable Restrictions. This keeps your children safe. Access to adult content in both websites and videos will be forbidden.

If you're not able to charge your iPad using the front of the computer, consider trying the back. Not every USB port will provide enough power, and most of the time the back ones run better. If you continue having trouble, purchase a USB adapter for outlets.

Does it seem like a pain to tap on the bookmarks icon every time you want to access your favorite websites? To resolve this problem, set your bookmarks bar to stay on permanently. Start with Settings, then choose Safari. You will see an option for always showing your bookmarks bar. Enable it to the On position.

Here are a couple of ways to display a PDF. You can either put your PDF in iTunes and sync your iPad with it, or you can email them to yourself on iPad. Try both methods and perhaps you could use iTunes to access PDFs at home and send emails to yourself when you cannot access your home computer.

You will find that iPads now have an easy way to be muted. When the iPad first came out, you couldn't quickly mute it. Once iOS 4.3 came out, there was an option added where your lock switch can mute the sound. Now all you have to do is press the volume-down key and hold it for a few seconds.

Keep your iPad away from water. Try to keep it out of the rain or humid areas. Water will certainly damage your iPad.

To protect your investment, you need to understand how to properly care for your new iPad. You should avoid exposing your iPad to direct sunlight and to high temperatures. Heat degrades battery performance. Avoid placing it near liquids. For extra protection, you may want to buy a padded cover.

Go into FaceTime and manage your numbers and email addresses. It defaults to the email you used when you set up the iPad. If you find more emails or things like phone numbers that FaceTime should recognize, go to the settings on your iPad and set them up.

Before showing another person how to use Safari, be sure to double-check your iPad history. You should not open your browser and have it display some kind of compromising picture. Remember that your browser will automatically go to your last visited page, so be careful to select the page you want to show others.

Do you hate scrolling while you are surfing the web on the iPad? Tapping on the bar found at the topmost part of the page will return you to the webpage's top immediately rather than scrolling up, thus saving you some time. That trick works in other apps as well.

The iPad is a great gadget, and using it can be a lot of fun. To get the most out of your iPad user experience, it is important that you learn a few tips and tricks. With your new information close at hand, you will get lots more use from your device. Utilize these tips, and you can begin having fun with it.
