13. Shake To Undo or Redo
While typing, just shake the iPad up and down and an option will pop up to Undo Typing or Redo Typing. If
you don’t want to shake it, then there is also an undo button on the .?123 keyboard and a redo button on the
#+= keyboard.
14. Use All CAPS
If you want to use all capitals, you can turn on the option Enable Caps Lock. Go to Settings, General, and
Keyboard. Here you will see the option Enable Caps Lock. Turn it on and now you can just tap shift twice for
caps lock. Tap it again to disable caps lock.
15. Get Extra Symbols
This is a great tip for those that need to add special characters. There are some keys you can hold down to bring
up extra options. Just tap and hold down a letter you want and if there are any extra options it will display them
in a pop up.
16. Replace
A new feature on iPad is the Replace function. Select any word by double tapping, which brings up the option
Replace. Tap this and you will see possible replacement words – a great iPad tip that saves you a lot of time.
17. How To Clean The iPad
Ever wonder how to clean your iPad without ruining that really nice oleophobic coating? Officially you are
supposed to clean it with only a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use window cleaners, household
cleaners, aerosol sprays, abrasives, or alcohol to clean any part of your iPad.
18. Battery Care
Ever wonder how to get the most out of your iPad batteries? The batteries are lithium polymer (rechargeable)
and eventually will wear out, but there are some things you can do to get the longest life out of them. Keep
them out of heat above 95 degrees and cold below 32 degrees. Always make sure you have the latest
software. Make sure you go through at least one charge cycle per month (charging the battery to 100% and then
running it completely down). Turning on the EQ in the iPod settings can also drain the battery.
19. Reply With Only Part of Your Email Message
If you want to reply or forward only a portion of an email message, you can highlight the part of the message
you want to send, then just hit reply or forward and it will only send that portion. This tip is perfect for those
really long email threads that you just need a portion of.
20. Zoom Out Fast in Maps
This is the only current app that supports this feature but if you tap a map with two fingers it will zoom
out. Use pinch for much more precise control.
