The Best Kept Secrets of the iPad!

Shh! Don’t tell anyone but today we’re sharing some of the best kept secrets of the iPad. Let us know what you think, and if you have any secrets of your own!

  • View a PDF without an app: Connect your iPad to your computer and drag and dropping a PDF right onto the little iPad icon in iTunes, Choose to open a PDF from an Email attachment in “iBooks”, or access your PDF via iDisk, GoogleDocs, or Dropbox and then storing it in iBooks.
  • Find Text Anywhere on a Web Page: Did you ever noticed that when you type a search term in Safari, there is a little section at the bottom of the results box that says, “On This Page”? Clicking on this will actually not search out on the Internet but it will search the page for that specific word or phrase.
  • Capture Screenshots to your Photo Library: To take the perfect screen shot, simply hold down both the Home and Sleep button at the same time. The screen will appear as if it flashes and there will be an audible shutter noise. Now open up your Photo app and it will be there for you to edit or send via email, etc.
  • Scroll to the top of a web page quickly: tap one on the top of the screen near the status bar and the page will automatically scroll back to the top. This works in more apps than just the Safari app so give it a try in your favorite Twitter apps or news reader (RSS) apps.
