Good to hear from you. You’ll find a whole bunch of iPad enthusiasts in this Forum who are only too willing to help other iPad owners and to hear of their experiences. Don’t be afraid to post any questions you may have or use the ‘Search’ button near the top of the Forum web page. I usually find I discover one new interesting and useful piece of information about my iPad every day - and often not even what I was looking for!!
Hope to hear from you soon with your thoughts about the iPad.
Have fun and enjoy your iPad
I saw your problem with the Guardian crossword puzzle. Do you have this problem on any other websites? Before getting into complicated possible solutions, can we try something really simple to begin with that often solves a whole load of problems? Turn your iPad completely off - i.e. press and hold the Power switch (the one you normally press briefly to put the iPad to 'sleep') and wait until a slider control appears (just a couple of seconds) asking for confirmation that you really want to switch off (that's all your doing, so no big deal!). Slide the slider to agree to turn off. A rotating white bezel will appear on the screen as the iPad powers down. Once the screen has gone completely blank and the bezel has disappeared, switch on again by pressing and holding the Power switch until the white Apple logo appears. The iPad will then power up - it takes several seconds, so have patience. Just before the power up is complete the iPad will play a little 'jingle' and, a few seconds later, you're back to your normal power-on screen, where you have to slide that control to go to the Home screen. Then see, if you try the crossword again, whether the problem persists. If it does, get back to us and we'll suggest some other possibilities. Good Luck..
