Just bought my very first Apple product (I'm 67 years of age!) on Black Friday. Great little machine, but how do I delete an app I've put on it by mistake?

Hold your finger on it until u see an X, then press on the X. Enjoy your pad.

Touch and hold the app in question and it will start to wiggle and there will be a little x in its top corner. Just touch this x and the iPad will ask if your sure you want to delete it - answer yes and it's gone - done.

P.S. welcome to the iPad and hope you continue to enjoy it - it's not perfect but it's still excellent.

Thank you very much! I feel like a simpleton.........

Not at all, we have all been there, it was new to us all at some stage so don't be afraid to use our search facility or ask a question.

If you go into iBooks and then to Store do a search for "iPad User Guide for iOS 5". It's a free book but highly detailed and you can search on it too. I have it on my iPad for reference.

Hi bumbler!! Welcome and enjoy discovering the wonderful things you can do to with your ipad2!! Don't hesitate to ask a question- everybody here is so helpful, friendly and very knowledgeable! The search button can also save you some time in getting an answer you have-your question may have already been asked/answered by somebody else!! It is quite helpful!!

Have a great time and welcome again!!
