Hello.I received an IPad today from my son.He had bought me the IPad mini but I thought because of my eyesight I would be better off with the big one.I have a lot to learn.I'm finding it difficult to transition from my Nook Color which i have had for three years.I will need lots of help.

Hi and welcome to the Forum!

First of all, are you using our app? You will find a link below for it, I find it so much simpler to use. Once you have it you will see a More tab along the bottom, press this, then Settings, then Forum Reading options. You will find a setting here for Font size, always easier to read when the font is larger I find. Below you will find a lot of info to get you started on your iPad......sit back, get comfy as you're in for a big read. Enjoy!

The IPad Forum is a community of members from all walks of life and from all over the world coming together to share our experiences and to help each other learn about this wonderful piece of technology the Ipad.

If then you cannot find the answer you are seeking then by all means post your question. There are many friendly and informed members here only too willing to help you.
