After installing iOS5 i am unable to move built-in icons from one screen to another.

Any ideas?  It works just fine on my iPhone4.  Just not on the iPad2.  I''m thinking there is a switch or something that I must have set incorrectly.
Thanx!

I had the same frustration, it appears that if the shape is shown in outline only you can't drag it around with your mouse, although as said it can be positioned with either the co-ordinates or by the left/right keys on your keyboard; however if you select a fill in the shape, (even though the fill may be the same colour as your background), you can then drag it around!
If anyone reads this, which is unlikely as it's written long after the original question, I'd be interested to know what the rationale is for that behaviour. It's not intuitive to me.

    Tap and hold an Icon until they begin to shake. Move the Icon towards the edge of the screen and hold for a couple seconds. The Icon will then "jump" to the next screen.

    How do I move icons from one screen to another. 

    Hold down on one icon until they start shaking, then drag the icon to the edge of the screen, and the screen should slide to the next one, you can then drop it on that screen or drag it again to the edge to move to the next screen.

  • How do I move an app icon from one page to another?

    I would like to organize my Ipad2 but can figure out how to move the app icon from one page to another.

    Tap and hold down on an app icon until it wiggles. Then hold down on the icon and drag it about halfway over to the next screen and just hold it there for a second or two and the app will jump to the next page. Do it slowly and just hold the app on the edge of the screen. Don't try to drag it over quickly. It takes a little practice.
    Tap the home button when you are done and the apps will stop wiggling.

  • Is there an easy way to move multiple icons from one screen to another?

    I have multiple screens on my iphone 5c display.  I want to move multiple icons at the same time from one screen to another.  Is there a way to do this?

    You could put them all in a single folder and move the folder to another screen.

  • Unable to move Closed invoices & Payment from one vendor to another vendor

    Hi,
         Due to some error in the current vendor master data, we want to move closed items from once Vendor to a newly established Vendor.
    Any suggestion how can we move closed items from once Vendor to another Vendor.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Rj.

    Hi RJ,
    I'm afraid that as long as vendor data on a financial document it is not a modificable field you should probably choose one of the following options depending on the current situation:
    1. If not only the posting document but also the issued invoice are incorrect, you should ask your vendor for a credit memo and/or a corrective invoice. In this case you should only reset the cleared item through FBRA tx. cancelling the clearing document (out-going payment) and afterwards post the credit memo, the new invoice and a new out-going payment if suitable.
    2. If only the FI documents are incorrect, first you should cancel the clearing document (out-going payment doc.) completely through tx. FBRA and afterwards carry out an individual reversal through tx. FB08 for the invoice document. The next steps are to post the invoice and the out-going documents again (Tx. F-43 and F-53).
    Sorry not to have a more positive answer but in both cases there is no way you could only change the vendor number in the FI docs.
    Regards,
    Lidia

  • How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?

    How do I move my itunes account from one country to another?  I set up my itunes account in the United States and now I live in England.  I would like to transfer my purchases from my US account to my British account and then download them onto my new ipod.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes and I have updated my Windows 7 operating system.  I have tried to get in touch with apple and the advisor said he could not help me.  Ideas? 

    Before you change the country, note the following:
    - you must use any remaining store credit on your account
    - download all purchased content
    - ensure you have no current rentals(if you do, you'll have to wait for them to expire)
    - provide a new payment(such as a credit or debit card) associated with a valid billing address in the UK or an iTunes Gift Card purchased in the UK
    - content purchased from the iTunes Store is country-specific. If you wish to upgrade any of your iTunes Store content to iTunes Plus, you'll need to do this before you change countries. The content you purchased while your account was set to the previous country will not be eligible for upgrade once you've changed countries.
    - after you change countries, you will no longer receive application update notifications in iTunes for the apps you purchased in your original country. However, you'll still receive update notifications on your iOS device for any applications installed on it. In addition, you'll be able to download previously purchased applications again for free if they are available on your new country's store. You will not be charged and the download will not appear on your Purchased page. If a previously purchased application is not available in your new country, you will not be able to download it again for free.
    - If you have an iTunes Match subscription, you can't change countries until the subscription has expired.
    - If you have purchased a Season Pass, you cannot change the country associated with your account until that season is done airing and the last episode of the season has been added to the iTunes Store.
    Taking the above into consideration, here's how to change your country:
    1. Open iTunes and click Sign In.
    2. Enter your iTunes Store account name and password, then click Account Info.
    3. On the Apple Account Information page, click Change Country or Region.
    4. Enter the updated information and save your changes.

  • I can't move an app from one screen to another screen

    I can't move an app from one screen to another screen

    You've got the apps shaking by pressing and holding one of them for a second or two ? If you have then you should be able to drag an app (not too quickly) and then hold it so that it overhangs the edge of the screen, and after a second or so the display should switch to that next/previous screen. Is that not working ?

    How do i move icons from one page to another?

    Tap and hold any icon for a couple of seconds. They'll all start to wobble. Tap and drag the one you want to move to the side of the screen and the next screen will appear; drop the icon on whatever screen you want it on.
    You can also do it quicker in iTunes - connect the phone and click the Apps tab in the main window. You'll see a picture of your phone with the apps laid out. Just click and drag

  • How do i move itunes and music from one pc to another?

    All - i need to move all my music from one pc to another - does anyone know how to do this? i am not very technically minded and ever time i try to look it up i get very confused! thanks in advance.

    I set up a home network and transferred it using that. See if you can get a PC-savvy friend to help you, or hire someone to do this. It is nearly impossible to talk someone through this over the internet.
    Windows has some built-in helps to tell you how to set up a home network and turn on file sharing. If you don't understand that, get someone to help!
