I’m using iOS 15.5 on an iPad Air 4. I use Reader view in Safari a lot when finding crochet patterns - I open print preview & then save to my PDF reader. This eliminates all the advertising & garbage on the page. Over the last month or so, images don’t show up in print view (or in the PDF when...

I was afraid of that. Thanks for your help.

How can I turn off split screen in Safari in iOS 15.4 please? I mean completely disable it, so it doesn’t happen. I could do it in iOS 14 (can’t remember how) but it’s suddenly started happening again. Unfortunately, when I “Merge all Screens” to get out of it, next time I open Safari I’ve...

I suspected as much, thank you anyway

does anyone know how to disable what I think is called the elastic bounce effect, when in Safari, Pages etc you touch the very top of the screen & it shoots back to the top of the page? I constantly touch it with the edge of my hand by mistake, and it’s driving me crazy! Especially when I’m in...

I'm proofreading a long document, I’m Australian but the author is American. Is there any way to change the language in Pages, so spellcheck doesn’t underline every US spelling of a word? I'm missing the genuine errors amongst all the ‘misspelt' words. Even changing the language of my entire...

Sorry, I overlooked the part about sticky settings. I'll double check if this is enabled Mum's iPad as soon as I am able.

Thank you, I'm aware of this feature. Occasionally I've emailed a large number of photos and have been prompted to choose an image size. I'm fairly sure Mum isn't routinely using this feature as she would've called me to ask what it meant if the prompt popped up! My sister routinely email...

Hi everyone, My 81 yo mother has an iPad Mini 4, running the last version of iOS 10. When she emails photos they arrive very blurry. All photos, whether they're uploaded from her camera, or screenshots taken on the iPad. This tells me the iPad mail app is resizing them, but I can't find a...

Thank you for your help. The setting in Safari was already turned on, and turning it off & on again had no effect. However, after several hours of fiddling around, restarting, deleting the reading list and re-saving it, etc, the problem is fixed. I don’t think it was actually anything I did...

I discovered today in IOS 11.2.1 that nothing in my reading list is available for offline reading. If it was only some of them, I'd think that I saved them to the reading list then moved off the website before it had a chance to be saved offline, but it was everything. I deliberately tried...

I have an iPad Pro, an iPad mini and an iPhone SE, all running IOS 10.3.2. The Pro and the iphone were purchased within the last 12 months. The Pro is my main device. I constantly have a problem with the mail app. Whenever I check the mail on the iPhone or the mini, I find messages in the inbox...

I have one gem of advice for anyone reading before updating - BACK UP YOUR DEVICE FIRST!!!! Enough said.

I updated my iPad 2 last night and so far have found no problems at all. Only took about 30 minutes to install. Hoping there's not some nasty surprise lurking that I haven't stumbled on yet!

I can't believe it was that easy, I mucked about with those files for ages trying to delete them! Thank you - all fixed!
