How to Annotate in iBooks


Open the book you want to annotate in your iBooks app. Browse through the content until you find the sentence or paragraph you want to annotate or annotate on the fly as you read a book.
Touch and hold your finger on the passage until the contextual menu and selection handles appear. Adjust the selection handles to select as much or as little of the text as needed. You can select individual letters, words, sentences and paragraphs as needed.
Touch the “Note” option in the contextual menu after you finish adjusting the selection. Type your note and then tap away from the note area to close and save. If you're using an iPhone or iPod Touch, you'll need to click the small right arrow on the contextual menu to display the 'Note' option.
On the iPad, tap the small note icon to the right of your annotated passage to view or edit the note. On all iOS devices, the annotated portions of a book or document in iBooks are indicated by the presence of highlighting. Tap the highlighted text to display a list of extra options. Click the color circles to change the highlight color, the trash can to delete the note, the note icon to edit the note or the share icon to copy or share the highlighted text.

How to Find a Lost iPad Using Find My iPhone (6 Steps)


Touch the “Settings” icon on your iPad and then select the “iCloud” tab. Enter your Apple ID if prompted; users who set up iCloud during device initialization already have the service enabled. Finding your lost iPad via Find My iPad is possible only if you have the iPad connected to an iCloud account.
Touch the slider next to “Find My iPad.” Confirm your selection by touching “Okay” on the confirmation dialog. If Find My iPad is active on your iPad, the slider next to its iCloud entry will be green. Devices without this feature enabled will not show up in the Find My iPad service; you must turn this feature on before losing your iPad to count on it as a recovery option.
Touch the iPad’s home button to exit the Settings application. Find My iPad is now enabled on your device, giving you the power to track the iPad as long as it is connected to a cellular or Wi-Fi signal.

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.
