The latest operating system, iOS, allows you to use folders on your iPad. To utilize this feature, tap the app you want to until it begins to shake, then drag it where you want to drop it. The folder that is created will be named with the category of the applications that are inside it. Pick any name you wish for this group.

Are you finding it annoying to receive constant messages from your iPad asking if you are interested in accessing a wifi network that it has detected? Get rid of this by going into the settings menu. Press on Wi-Fi and turn off the last option to discontinue these prompts.

Do you know what to do when your iPad freezes? It can be rebooted by using a soft reset. To start, hold down your home and power buttons at the same time for several seconds. Then the iPad will reset. If you would rather just close down the application that you are in, push down on the home button instead.

When you receive a new email, your iPad's default setting is for you to see two lines prior to opening it. It is helpful sometimes to get a preview of the email contact. Head to "settings" and hit "mail." Then click on Contacts, then click Calendar and then finally select Preview Mail Options so that you can see more at one time.

It can be irritating for your iPad to chime every time you get an email. You can turn this notification off. Simply visit the Settings section and tap the General tab. Under the General tab, select Sounds. Find the New Mail sound and adjust it to your preference.

Open pages in new tabs. If you are in the Safari browser you can tap on it and then a menu will pops up. Go to the pop up menu, and you can open new links.

You should know what kind of care an iPad needs. For starters, be sure the iPad is never in direct sunlight. Also, don't keep inside of a hot car. The heat will degrade a battery's performance. Also, make sure that you do not put it any place where it will come in contact with liquids. Do yourself a favor, and buy a padded cover that will protect your precious device.

Taking care of that expensive new iPad is a very smart strategy. Lots of iPad owners buy screen protectors. This is a simple plastic cover that offers protection to the screen. Use a soft, damp cloth to clean your iPad's screen. Never use window cleaners or other types of household cleaners on your iPad.

If you're connected to the web all the time, then you're probably going to enjoy the cloud function the iPad offers. You can use the cloud to store files and information so that you leave your iPad storage free and clear. Put anything that you think is important on your cloud, in addition to keeping it on your tablet.

Auto brightness can help your iPad's battery life. The current level of light in any room can be sensed by iPads, and they can adjust based on this. This will control the power being drawn from the battery by the screen, and you'll be able to use the iPad for longer periods before having to charge it. Select this option in the Settings menu under Brightness and Wallpaper.

If you want to share pages with others or another device, sync them in iTunes. This ability is a godsend for many. Functions like emailing and downloading PDFs have become very easy.

With technology today, there are so many options. When deciding to choose the iPad, make sure you make the decision to keep discovering everything it offers. The piece above is just a starting place, so it pays to continue learning.
