How do I organize apps by category on my iPad?

How do I organize my apps so that they are grouped together by type...kids' stuff,etc.?

Smeone posted a rant about the problem this morning and documented a number of the threads. Some folks experience this when they applu an iOS update, others just randomly. I have found that as long as I keep things organized the way I want them in iTunes and then apply that to the iPad it seems to not happen to me.
Some folks are also not aware that there is a limit to 20 apps in a folder. I do not have that many apps so I have never tried to load that many into a folder!

How can I organize apps in itunes for multiple ipads?

I have 3 ipads for my classroom. The job of organizing my apps into folders is tedious. Isn't there a way to organize them and keep them sorted into folders without having to redo this for every computer? How can I save the work once I have completed it so it isn't thrown out during resets?

Can someone tell me how to get my apps that are on my ipad to appear on my TV using Apple Tv

Can someone tell me how to get my apps that are on my IPad to be viewed on my Apple TV?

Welcome to the Apple Community Coachcad.
Basic AirPlay: Assuming both devices are on the same network and that AirPlay is not turned off on the Apple TV, then simply tap on the screen when you are watching content you wish to stream to your Apple TV, then tap the airplay icon that appears in the control bar, choose the Apple TV from the menu that appears.
Mirroring: When displaying the content you wish to mirror on the iPad 2 (or better), iPad Mini, iPhone 4S (or better), swipe from the bottom of the screen, tap the AirPlay icon and choose your Apple TV from the list of devices (iOS 7 or better) or double tap the home button (quickly) and swipe the bottom row of apps to the right to reveal the playback controls, tap the AirPlay icon and select your Apple TV from the list of available devices (pre-iOS7)

the apps will not be deleted if the itunes is authorised for the apple id from which you downloaded the apps.
for the songs if you have downloaded it from a store other than itunes an app "TuneAid" will help you. download the full version then you can copy all the songs on the ipad to ur itunes library

How can I organize home videos and photos in ipad

I don't have a mac or pc, just the new ipad. I'm planning to buy a camera card reader adapter so I can load my photos and videos directly from my camera card to my ipad. But then how do I organize my home videos and photos in my ipad into albums?
I saw the photo folder app does essentially what I want but does it treat videos the same as photos? I didn't see anything about it being able to organize videos.

See the follwoing and the links in the following:
iTunes: Frequently asked questions about viewing and syncing videos
Yuo will likely need a computer app to convert the format to one compatible with the iPad. I use the Free HandBrake app. It has an iPad preset.

How do I move apps from iphone5 to new iPad retina?

HOw to transfer apps from iphone5 to new iPad retina?

One way is to sync the iPhone using iTunes on your computer. Then assuming your iPad is using the same Apple ID as your iPhone, sync your iPad using the same iTunes. Make sure you have the apps sync set up correctly in iTunes for your iPad. While the iPad is plugged in to iTunes, go to the Apps tab and check the instructions.

How to transfer selected apps and movies to new iPad?

I just received my iPad 3, and I would like to transfer some, but not all, of my apps and videos from my iPad 1.
I'm pretty confused as to the meaning of the Apps tab in iTunes. There is a list of apps to the left. Is this a list of all the apps that are "stored" in iTunes, whether or not they are on my iPad (or iPhone)? As far as I can tell, all those that are checked are also on my iPad. But there are some that are unchecked that are on my iPad.
Then there are "screenshots" of the pages of an iPad to the right. Generally, the layout of the apps on these screens match those on my iPad, but there is one app on the screenshot that's not on my iPad.
If I were to plug my new iPad in now and restore from this backup, what apps would move to the new iPad? How can I control those? Basically I would like to delete a lot of unsued apps from my iPad without losing them forever.
Same kinds of questions with videos.

The apps that have checkmarks next to the names are the apps that are selected to sync.
Those screenshots that you see are all of the home screens on the iPad and why you see an app on the screenshot that is not on the iPad does not make sense. If you see it on one of those screenshots - it should be on the iPad.
Anyway - simply select all of the items that you want to sync to the new iPad. Click on the boxes next to the names to select them. Deselect apps the same way - click on the boxes to remove the checkmarks.
You can pick and choose all of the content in each tab in iTunes - apps, music, photos. books - whatever - you can control what it syncs by selecting and selecting. Videos included. All of these apps that have checkmarks next the boxes will sync to my iPad.
This is how you select the movies that you want to sync.
All of the content that is checked in iTunes is what would sync - but that is not what would be restored from the backup. The backup contains all of your app data and app settings, the device settings, safari history and bookmarks, contacts, calendar entries, camera roll - and so on. The backup does not contain your media - you still have to sync that from iTunes.

HT4946 How do I transfer apps and photos from my ipad to my iPhone?

I just bought a new iPhone5 after my other putting my other phone the the washing machine! How do I get my apps and pictures from my ipad to my iphone. I was not able to save anything from my other ohone.

Using the same apple ID with both devices opens them up to share apps and data. There are some limits, for example some iPad apps are iPad only, they literally won't work on the iPhone due to the phone's limited resolution.
