    Here is a page from the iPad User Manual --



    The other important question is what version of software is on your iPad? You can not create folders on anything earlier than version 4.2.1. If it is before this, you will need to upgrade.

    I noticed the same thing... After my update I can't move icons from one page to another... Makes it tricky to make folders.. And it's annoying... Am I missing something?

    ok i found the problem, before you could move the icons by moving dragging very quickly, but now, i have to drag it slower once my finger reaches near the end of the screen, and works fine. strange the way the update have done this.

    thanks for the help everyone. and hope my finding helps others!!
