Hi squib here, just joining and also asking for help!
I know how to make the icons jiggle, delete them.......but how do I move them from one page to the next? It is probably a really easy answer...I hope...I have been chasing them all over the place and when it did work I had No idea why!!!! Thanks, squib

While the icons are jiggling, press and hold one. Drag it over to the side of the current screen and hold it there. The page will turn and your icon will go onto the next page. Yes, it will take a bit of practice as you learn how long to hold the icon against the side of the page.

Or, a lot of people use this trick: put the icon (or icons) you want to move onto the dock. Then, while they are still jiggling, swipe to the page on which you want to put the icon(s). Then, you can move them up from the dock onto the new page. I find this is easier than trying to hold an icon against the side...
