How to Choose the Right Apple iPad


Determine if you need the newest version or last year's model. Apple frequently sells a stripped-down version of the previous generation of iPad at a discount. If you do not need a great deal of storage and do not anticipate keeping your iPad for more than a few years, this is an excellent way to save a few dollars.
Choose how much memory you need. Apple iPads frequently come with different memory capacities, with larger iPads costing more. While more memory is better than less memory, it is possible to have more than you need. Business apps and electronic books usually do not consume a great deal of space and fit well in a 16 or 32 GB iPad. If you will be storing a lot of music or video on your tablet, the 64 GB version becomes more important.
Decide which type of network connectivity you need. The lower-priced iPads come with Wi-Fi capability that achieves fast connection speeds on any available Wi-Fi network. For those users who need to connect to the Internet even when they do not have access to a Wi-Fi network, Apple also makes iPads that connect to the cellular network. These iPads cost more money and require a data service plan to use the cellular feature, which carries a monthly fee. If you need this capability, choose the iPad that provides you with the best balance of cost and quality of service. As of August 2012, cellular-equipped iPads connect to either the AT&T or Verizon networks in the United States.
Choose a color. Apple makes iPads in any color you want -- as long as it is white or black. While black iPads have a sleek, businesslike appearance, some users feel that white iPads show fewer fingerprints and smudges. This is ultimately a matter of personal preference.

How to Prevent the Rearrangement of Icons on an iPhone


Jailbreak your phone. There is no utility available within the iPhone itself that allows icons to be locked. There is also no available app on the App Store that provides this functionality. However, if you jailbreak your phone, you will have access to apps that will provide you with this feature. Despite the name, jailbreaking an iPhone is not illegal.
Download Springlocker or Lockdown from Cydia. As new apps are constantly being released, there may be other apps that can provide this feature in the future. As of November 2010, these are the two programs that will enable you to lock your icons.
Go into the 'Settings' of your iPhone if you installed Springlocker. There will be a Spring Locker option that gives you the ability to turn 'Lock Icons' on or off. Turn it on to prevent your icons from being accidentally moved or deleted in the future.
If you installed Lockdown, you can stop icons from being moved, and you can also stop them from being opened if you want to restrict access to certain apps on your phone. You can access this feature through the 'settings' on your iPhone. You must turn the 'Lock Icon Placement' option to 'On' to prevent icons from being rearranged.

How to Delete Native iPhone Apps


Touch one of the app icons on your iPhone and hold it until all of the icons start to wiggle and shake. This is how you enter the position editing mode for the apps.
Select any of the apps and drag it to the right edge of the screen. The icon will cause the screen to shift to the next page of icons. If you have only one page of icons, this will create a second page.
Drag a second app from the first page to the next page and keep dragging it until you reach a third page. Keep moving apps until you've created nine pages of apps.
Move all of the native apps that you want to delete onto the ninth page of apps. Make sure that the native apps are the last ones on the page.
Add more icons to the ninth page until you have the page full with 16 apps. Keep the apps to be deleted as the last ones on the page.
Move several app icons to the eighth page so they are at least as many apps as you want to delete. So if you want to delete four native apps, place five apps onto the eighth page.
Drag the last app on the eighth page to the first position on the ninth page. This will bump the last app on the ninth page off and move it to the backdoor 10th page automatically. This is equivalent to deleting the app because you won't see it on your iPhone.
Keep moving the apps form the eighth page to the ninth page in the same pattern until all of the native apps you want to remove are moved to the 10th page.

How to Password Protect Apps On An iPad (5 Steps)


Select the 'Settings' icon from your home screen or the main menu. This is where you go for all general settings as well as settings for specific functions of the device.

Select 'General' followed by 'Restrictions.' You will see a list of apps pop up in your browser as well as a check box that says 'Enable Restrictions.'

Select which apps you would like to apply the new password to. When you are done selecting the apps, press 'Done' to complete the process.

How to Hide a Photo in an IPad


Determine your needs for hiding photos on the iPad. For example, do you want to just hide one or a few pictures or do you want an app that also lets you store files privately, such as journal entries you don't want others to see.
Tap your iPad's 'App Store' icon to launch the store interface.
Tap inside the search box and enter the key terms 'Private photo,' 'Private pictures,' 'Lock files,' 'Hide photos,' or similar terms. Any of these key phrases brings up a selection of apps to meet your needs.
Read the app descriptions for the apps resulting from your search. Pay attention to the size (cache) limitations to make sure the app can store enough data to include all your private photos. Also check whether the app encrypts your images. This is important if you're worried about sensitive images being seen if you lose your iPad. If you just want to keep a couple of unflattering photos out of the gallery, however, this is less important. An app that easily imports images from your existing photo gallery is best. Read the user reviews to find out how easy the app is to learn and use.
Download the app you determine best meets your needs for hiding your private images and wait for the iPad to finish installing it.
Launch the app, and then read any introductory or help files to determine how to get your photos into and out of the app.
Practice locking and unlocking the app a few times before you move any data into it. Once you're familiar with how it works, import the photos you want to hide. This usually involves tapping an 'Import' or 'fetch' button and browsing to the photos you want to import. Some apps may allow you to use the 'Action' button in e photo galley (the same button used to email photos) to send your pictures directly into the private app. Placing them within this app will hide them on your iPad, storing them where only you or someone to whom you give the passcode can view them.
