Sunday April 21, 2013
This meeting had no
structure, but we sure covered a lot of ground.
We all shared tips and different apps that each had discovered.
·
Went over
iBooks and how to download some great FREE exercise video books from the Store,
how you can use the Collections tab to download PDF files like the Palm Creek
Happenings, Manuals, Restaurant Menus and put them into a Collections folder.
·
We discussed
how to use the Contacts with Emoji to identify different groups of people. We also discovered we can view Groups within
the Contacts app on the iPad, however they must be created and set up on either
the Mac or PC.
·
I did a demo
on how to transfer Photos to your PC or Mac so you could work in Picasa or
transfer them to another media for backup, either an external drive, thumb
drive, or CD. The app we used was
Wireless Transfer App which must be present on your PC or Mac as well as the
iPad and iPhone so that you can transfer between them. Note when downloading an app, be sure to
download it on the iPad because it will automatically also go to the
iPhone. If you do the iPhone first you
will have to go to the iPad and download it again. Sometimes there is an extra charge for that.
·
We discovered
a free leaning app called Grovo
where you can select different products which you will be directed to for some
short video training. One such video on
Evernote demonstrated how to use the Evernote camera app to take multiple
pictures of something and they will all be placed into one note, saving you the
aggravation of consolidating later. This
would out great for those magazines you want to get rid of, but want to save an
article.
·
Showed how to
drag and drop email addressee names down into the cc or bcc line without having
to retype them.
We are going to meet again next Sunday for another one of these great sharing sessions.
