[QUOTE ="cpat1946"]Hi, I have an iPad 3, using iOS 5.1. I'm very new to this, can someone tell me if it's possible to copy & paste text?
Thanks[/QUOTE]
Double tap the area you wish to copy and the select bar will appear. Either select all or drag the blue bead(s) to select the desired text to be copied. Once your selection is made the copy,paste options will appear.
To paste double tap area and select paste from the presented selections.
It's more complex to get pieces of text as you long press for the magnifying glass then go through the same routine as above,
This isn't a perfect description but should get you going.
Background apps are hiding for good reason. Seek them out, close them. The world will be a better place.

Touch a word in the block of text you want to copy, the touch either Select all or Select and drag the handles around until you have highlighted everything you want. Then touch Copy. Head over to where you want to paste it. Touch your screen in the text area and touch Paste.

My month view in Calendar is not highlighting the correct current day. The App icon in task bar is ok. Any advice on how to fix?

Not sure if it's posted here yet there's a lot to look for but has anyone noticed when using safari if you have say 4 pages open (don't matter how many), you can hold onto the top tab of each page hold it, then drag it to first page, second page etc. keep your safari pages in a neat order and rotate them as you please.
