If I told ya then it would take the fun away!   Look to the top of this page . To the left of the address is an arrow in a box. Tap that and you will get a hint. Once you have bookmarked some favourites then you can go to the  icon to the left of the cloud which is to the left of the  icon you just tapped. You can see it looks like an open book. Tap that and you will see all your bookmarks. You can then organise them into folders or files . For instance. If you make a folder named recipes every time you see a recipe you can bookmark that page and put it into your folder marked recipes. That saves you searching and searching for a page or website or this forum to find that particular page.  Just open bookmarks and tap the page you saved.

Screen shots are another way to keep recipes you see in an album in Photos but that is another wee lesson.

Funny you should talk about screen shots Gert.  Have had my iPad for 4 days (yes still excited) and have just learnt how to do it. Thanks to a young primary school boy!  Here is my first screenshot. I think you might recognise the lovely face.  Can I let the secret out Gert on how to,  or would you like the honours ;)

Yup. DH has a leather cover which is quite thick and it is fine. Also fits without a cover. You can bend it and stretch it and play with it so it fits just about every device. And it is still solid. Amazing invention.

A quote from Gert elsewhere which may be useful to iPad users.

Did you know that when taking a picture with the iPad that you can hold your thumb or finger on the button while focusing as it does not take a snap until you release the button. Might help.

Gert


and one from Cookie too

When you have one screen open on safari, tap the plus sign near the top right. This will give you the opportunity to type in whatever you want for your second screen. Eg glitter graphics. You will then see that you have two things open and you can tap on them to use which ever you want.
I should have perhaps made this clear that it is only when using safari. (As far as I know)

GF when you tap the plus sign all that happens is that the words Forum Thermomix etc seem to slide to the left. Then you can type in a new address up in the white boxes where you type Internet addresses. I will do a screen shot of what it looks like after you tap the plus.


Then you type in the new address and hey presto you have two windows open and you just tap each one to move between them.
( I'm still in my py's, it is 8.30 and everyone has gone out for the day, I'd better go and get dressed!)

An added note GF. My Kribbitt is black. It is 22 days since I ordered it I am hanging out for the parcel delivery man. Hopefully today.

Hi Cookie... The + sign seems to be dimmer which suggests to me that its inactive??? Is there anything I should be doing to wake it up ??
