What's new

Are you a new MEMBER??? PLEASE READ BEFORE STARTING A NEW THREAD!!!

You might want to check it out again. They've just done a UI update, and while it's still not as simple as the iPF app was, it's better.

The website is actually pretty usable from the iPad and Safari. Far better than the old site was.

I tend to bounce between the two, depending on mood and what I'm trying to do.

That said, I am on the computer right now, and that is still my most common method of accessing the forum. It's much much easier to be my overly wordy self when I have keyboard and a huge screen.

But I don't have a puter, only my ipad, sooo?
 
The next time you go to the website, go to the Home page by clicking on the Logo top left, then make a bookmark: Tap on the action icon (box with an up arrow) and choose the Add Bookmark icon. Make sure you add it to the Favorites folder for easy access.

Or for even a quicker shortcut you can choose the Add to Home Screen option. This will create an icon on your home screen. When you tap it, it will open the website in Safari. You can move, delete, or put it in a folder just like any other app icon.

Anyway, here is the forum's URL, so you can tap on it instead, or enter it directly int he URL field (text box at the top of Safari's screen).

Welcome! We are glad to have you as part of this forum! Here are a few tips to get you started!

Ipadforums.net is committed to helping you maximize your enjoyment of your iPad. The best way to get a good answer is to ask a good question!

1) Download a copy of the iPad User Guide. It is available for free in several different formats.

a) As a free PDF download from the Apple website --
Apple - Support - Manuals

This can (and should!) be saved on your computer and your iPad.

b) As a free iBook once you download the free iBook app from the iTunes App Store.

c) Online using the link provided in the Safari favorites on your iPad.

The answers to many questions, especially if this is your first Apple mobile "iDevice", can be answered by spending some quality time with this handy document.

2) Be descriptive in the topic title. A title such as HELP!!! is not very, well, helpful! If you do post or create a thread please be complete.. :example

Q: Why is my ipad crashing??

Correct Q: My iPad is jailbroken and when i open facebook it crashes.

3) In the body of your post, be sure to include whether your iPad is "stock" or jailbroken. This forum fully supports your right to jailbreak your iPad and there is no reason to keep it a secret. It may be the source of your issues and we won't know that unless you tell us.

4) Search Search Search!!! I cannot stress this enough! There are many threads on this forum don't start a new thread just because your too lazy to search....(they will be removed without notice)

5) Installous isn't a topic that can be discussed here on the ipadforums.


It is important that one understands this is a private forum so we ask that you read our rules:

Forum rules - everybody please read!!

Finally if you are new to Apple and itunes it is recommended to read this thread as it provides many answers to basic questions regarding itunes.

Just to introduce myself,retired, I have always been a pc man right back in the days of DOS and the 8086, that gives you a clue as to how old I am. I was recently given an Ipad 4, my daughter dropped and I finished up with it, at first it was fine, and I was starting to think that maybe this Apple stuff isn't bad, then the problems started, I am going to post in the Ipad help to seek help on a couple of items, but I think I may have broken it.
Looking forward to being involved in the forum
