Hallo to everyone, in this my first post.
Love my iPad to bits. Definitely. Taken as read!
But I get so, so, so frustrated! Others who've come new from Windows with its menus will probably feel the same. It's the problem with basic navigation... There's the thing called minimalism & Jobs's nice clean design, which is great. But there's another thing a step further, called, well, NIX....? I search & search, going back & forth trying to find a magic key that will do an "open sesame" for what I want, Usually with heart in mouth, afraid I'll delete something or click on some other disastrous thing by mistake, or get lost & not able to find the way back.
Coping with the images in albums is one Big Angst. It's relatively easy to add a new album & then add photos from other albums. I eventually found how to name the new albums. But still don't have a clue for how to name the individual images. With an image open, I tried going to the "onward" arrow at top right and choosing to send it in a message to myself, together with the chosen title. That worked, but just for one message.
I want to do lots of artwork, many as throwaway experiments, or to save some, either as one-off pieces or one of a series of variations on a theme. Can't find any-which-way to label them. Or throw away the unwanted ones that were saved temporarily from the camera roll. I need to label as I go or I forget what I did to produce each one, which isn't sensible or useful, especially when teaching.
Yes, tried going to the manual. But how often do you find what you want to know in that? I'm looking forward to finding some answers here. Long message, apologies.
