How to Increase Your Tablet's Battery Life

Reduce your screen’s brightness. This single step greatly improves your battery life. The screen is the largest power draw on a tablet. Dim your screen as much as you can handle without causing eyestrain. Some tasks, such as photo editing, may require full brightness, but reducing it for ordinary reading will pay off in extra uptime.
Shorten the screen timeout interval. This feature -- called the Auto-Lock Interval on an iPad --blacks out the screen when the tablet’s not in use. While you may have to touch the screen at regular intervals to keep the tablet awake while you read, you’ll extend your battery life significantly if you use the tablet frequently for short tasks like checking email or sending SMS messages. If you don't mind fiddling with settings, you can turn off the timeout when you're settling in for some reading, and then change it back afterwards.
Reduce or eliminate application updates, pings and syncs. For example, social media applications such as TweetDeck and Apple’s Ping update constantly by default, even when you’re not using them. Set applications to update manually whenever possible and you’ll conserve power even when your tablet is “asleep.” Likewise, Apple recommends turning off “push notifications” and email “push” settings on your iPad to conserve power.
Disable Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS when they aren’t needed. Even when these services aren’t in use, they continue to search for connections and remain “powered up.” Some tablets offer a widget to quickly enable or disable these antennas when you’re not using them. If your tablet also uses 3G or 4G wireless service, disable it when you’re using Wi-Fi, or use 'airplane mode' if you're photo editing or watching a downloaded movie.
Keep an eye on the applications that run in the background. Some, such as games, should be shut down when you’re done with them. Others, such as GPS-enabled apps, might use more power than you expect while they’re in the background, because they’re also accessing your GPS antenna. Kill or quit any apps you don’t need.
If your tablet has an Organic Light Emitting Diode screen, a dark-colored wallpaper will reduce the screen’s power draw. Unfortunately, this method won't work with LCD screens, which are illuminated by a static backlight.

How to Make Mashups Songs on an iPad (3 Steps)

Use the MiniMash application available on the App Store. MiniMash is one of the simpler applications to use in this genre. With MiniMash, you can pick songs directly from your iTunes account and then mash them together. Once you select a song, it must be analyzed by the application before you can begin mashing it. MiniMash synchronizes the beats of two songs automatically when they're loaded. It also helps match the pitch of both songs as well. This is an application designed for the average user and not for experienced mixers.
Download Touch DJ Evolution for your iPad and use it to make mashups. This application also makes it possible to automatically synchronize the beats of two songs. With this app, you have the option of handling the mixing process visually. You see detailed beat maps that help you customize the songs to your liking. With this app, you can use loops, effects and cue points to put your own spin on a song.
Utilize Nanostudio to mix your own songs. This software allows you to sample tracks that you have saved on your iPad. With this application, you can actually use a built-in synthesizer or plug your iPad into a keyboard to add your own musical effects. You can then edit the samples or the songs with the wave editor. This is a more advanced application that's designed for those who want to make custom songs.
