Title: iPad screenshot
Post by: MegandMolly on March 06, 2013, 04:48:53 AM
I mentioned taking screenshots on another thread - if you need a screenshot (useful for recipes etc) you simply hold down the top button on right of the iPad , then at the same time press the home button (bottom of screen in the centre) you should hear a loud 'click' noise. Then go into the camera option, click on the photo gallery option and voila you've taken a photo of what was on the screen.


(Hope that was not too 'techy' an explanation - my daughter's explain action had lots of 'big words' ph34r :005:)

Thanks for that  :D, I was only looking last night at apps to do this - but it may be there already, will check later. oooh the power of COL :luv:


tho as mine is not an 'ipad' by name, but a touchpad it may not do this.  :dunno:

There is a great little app that I'd recommend, called Tips and Tricks - Ipad Secrets. You have to pay but it's not dear (and there's a sale on) and well worth it:

The free 'lite' version:

The paid one:

You really should not need an app.....if it a tablet on android ie galaxy tab ...for this you press the on/off button at the same time as the volume button.

Thanks - it made a noise that sounded like a photo being taken. Now, where is this photo stream thingy where I can find the photo?
