Moving and deleting apps
If you’ve had your iPhone or iPod Touch for a while, you’ll notice that it tends to get cluttered up pretty quickly. You can move all the app icons on your iPhone or iPod Touch by simply holding down on an app until the screen begins to shake. Once all the apps start shaking, you can drag apps around or push on the little “X” that appears on them to delete the app from your iPhone or iPod touch. This tip can help make your iPhone or iPod Touch a little cleaner and rid it of unused apps. When you’re done, simply hit the home button once and you will be back to business.

Safari
The iPhone and iPod Touch both come with an excellent version of the Safari browser. To go to a specific website, simply touch the address bar and type in the name of the website, you don’t have to type “www.” or “.com”.  You can save images you find online by holding down on the image. It will prompt you to save and should you choose to save it, the image will be in your camera folder. If you are done surfing a site and wish to return to the top of the page, simply double tap the top bar to return to the top of the page, the trick to this is to double tap on the clock.

On the iPhone or iPod Touch keyboard, you can quickly end sentences with a period by double tapping the space bar. This will automatically put a period as well as give you one space to begin your next sentence. To put down something else such as a question mark, there is the slide trick. This trick is done by simply holding down the numbers and punctuation marks menu then sliding ur finger to the character that you want, once you release your finger, the character will displayed and your keyboard will be back to the normal letters. Finally, you can access special characters on your iPhone or iPod Touch keyboard by holding down specific letters, this will give you additional variations of that letter. This is a great tip for typing in a foreign language.

iphone and ipad delete photos
instead of deleting each photo individually,you can go into settings and delete them all. first make sure you have a copy on some storage device of all the pictures you are going to delete

second method
·         go to settings app
·         go to photos and camera, the first option that comes up is iphone photo library
·         if it is green then it is turned on, that means that when you take a picture , it is going to upload to a main  library to the cloud and store them there  and then push them back down to all your other deveices  that are logged in with the same apple id. this keeps all your devices in sync whether you delete photos, edit them, organize them etc...
·         get out of settings and go into photos app
·         be in the all photos mode or photo mode not just an album, where it will just delete it from that album,
·         select the picture to be deleted, then select the trash can
·         to delete more than one picture, use the select feature. tap on each of the pictures you want to delete. once you have selected all the pictures to be deelte, select the trash can in the upper left.
