** iPad Basics ~ Creating Folders for Apps **

//iPad users can create folders for the placement of applications both--including adding folders full of apps on the doc!//

** To Begin Creating Folders for Apps: ** 1. Turn on your device.

2. On the Home Screen **tap and hold on any application icon** until the apps begin to “jiggle” and you can see an **“x” in the top left corner.** (see the device home screen at right with an “x” in each corner of the apps)

3. Once the application icons are jiggling, you can **drag an application on top of another to create a folder**. A prompt window will appear for you to name the folder.

4. You can continue dragging the "jugging icons" into the folder--20 apps will fit in a folder on an iPad2. (iPhone/iPod Touch folders will hold 12 presently). Previous operating systems and older iPads may be limited to only 12 apps in a folder. The icons representing the folders look like only 9 apps are inside but if you open the folder you will see all the apps that you have included.

5. To eliminate/remove a folder, simply drag the apps out of the folder until no apps remain. The folder will disappear when it is empty.


 * Folders can be added to the doc--simply drag the folder to the doc.**
