The iPad can use VPN networks for accessing servers in a remote location. You can enable this VPN connection by activating the VPN feature in the network settings. You’ll be prompted to enter a username, as well as a server address. If you don’t know what the server address is, contact the network administrator.

Is that app you just launched making too much noise? You can quickly mute the volume by pressing the volume-down button. The lock button can be turned into a mute button as well.

Want your iPad to stop asking you to join networks? Go to Settings and then Wi-Fi and look for Ask to Join. Turn that setting off, and you will finally be rid of the constant notifications.

Lots of people say that typing on a tablet is difficult; however, this problem continues to improve. However, the iPad does have a button for speech dictation.

When you get your iPad it is set to only show the first two lines of any given message in the preview mode. It is helpful sometimes to get a preview of the email contact. You can select mail from your settings. Then choose Contacts, go to Calender, then pick the Preview option to increase the number of lines.
