I must have a really heavy finger. Does anyone know how to change the sensitivity of the touch pad.

Hi there and welcome.

There is lots of good advice and info on here plus plenty of members all too willing to help with any problems.

Remember, search is your friend. If you can't find the answer you need and you post a question then give as much info as you can to help members help you i.e. iPad 1 or 2, etc. and iOS version and name of app if the problem is with a specific app........and please don't forget to read the forum rules http://www.ipadforums.net/forum-rules-help-info/2119-forum-rules-everybody-please-read.html

These are the hacking section rules for all you jail breakers (and would be jail breakers) http://www.ipadforums.net/ipad-hacking/2892-hacking-section-rules-please-read.html

We also have an app for this forum. The link to download the app is: Discussion Forum for iPad Users for iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad on the iTunes App Store

You can download the manual for your iPad here http://help.apple.com/ipad/6/ and here http://support.apple.com/manuals/ and in iBooks search for "iPad user guide for" and you will find free comprehensive manuals for iOS 4, 5, 6, etc.

If you have other Apple products or are interested in other Apple kit then why not join our sister forum too at http://www.appleforums.net/ and for iPhone users, come and join in the discussion over at http://www.iphoneforums.net

Thanks for the information, which if I read between the lines, turns out to be very helpful. I thought maybe after searching off and on for months that I was missing something. You see, that happens quite often now that I am reaching the end of my effectiveness due to Alzheimer's disease. If that were not enough, CA of the sinus and autoimmune disease. It's probably an inability to feel the pressure I am putting on the screen. Can you imagine how on-the-go a person with a 147 IQ would be? And how the man is still in there but finds it hard not to come across as an idiot. That's me. I'll not take up your time again. Blessings to you all.

Feel free to "take up our time", we are here to help. There are lots of inbuilt functions in the iPad to assist those who are struggling to function so we may be able to assist in other ways.

If you have more questions, ask away.

I see no lines to be read between in any of responses to your original question. Your question was straightforward, and so were the answers.

If you have health problems that limit your use of the screen, you might want to check out the accessibility functions under Settings > General > Accessibility.

In the light of further info, maybe the stylus idea wouldn't work so well. I find it useful as it has a shock absorber effect. Not so great if you can't hold it and position it accurately.

Hope the other suggestions are more useful.
