How do you add a shortcut to the desktop with ios5?

Thanks to Itunes helpfully corrupting my Ipad backup and crashing the upgrade to ios5.1 (or whatever) this morning, I've had to completely rebuild my ipad from scratch.  Thanks, I didn't have anything better to do today than try to get all my apps and things set up the way I like again!  And, I didn't have any important data or anything... what the ****, if an update can wipe the ipad AND corrupt the backup, there is a serious problem with this whole thing!
Anyway, does anyone know how to get a bookmark to a webpage on the desktop?  It used to be that you could click the little "plus" button and just select to put the shortcut on the desktop, but you can't do that anymore, and none of my searches have come up with anything that isn't referring to pre-ios5 versions of safari on the ipad...
Thanks!

It is totally weird that you no longer have that feature in the Safari app. Have you tried the basics, restart, reset, quit the app, clear Safari.
Go to Settings>Safari>Clear Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Quit Safarai and restart - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus (-) sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
I have seen some of the most bizarre, off the wall, mysterious issues on my iPad since I updated that it has me totally mystified in many ways. Very, very disappointing to say the least.

    Hi,
    How do you add an image to the signature area.
    The Insert/edit image is not available when in My Settings | Personnel Info | Signature

    You need to link the image.  See the example for the Canada flag below.

  • How do you add a format to the "Date Picker Format Mask" available formats?

    Hi,
    When I select the Date Picker Format Mask or "Number / Date Format" they doen't have YYYYMMDD or others that may be desired...
    How do you add a format to the available formats?
    Thank you, Bill

    Bill - From the popup help text:
    If you need to create a Date Picker item, but the format you need does not appear in the Display As list, select Date Picker (use application format mask). When an application uses this type of date picker, the Application Express engine derives the date format from an item named PICK_DATE_FORMAT_MASK. You can populate this item in two ways:
    - By defining an application substitution string named PICK_DATE_FORMAT_MASK
    - By creating an application-level item named PICK_DATE_FORMAT_MASK
    See the doc for more details.

    I do just as you outline. It's covered in my article on Alignment Grids: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4319250#4319250
    I also agree that the Snap Tto Grid would be nice, like in Photoshop. I have sent in several Feature Requests for Grids, with full functions, like Snap To, though not recently.

  • How do I CREATE A SHORTCUT ON THE DESKTOP?

    New to the Apple family. Always have been a PC person. Just got fed up..  Would like to find out how to cut and paste with the mouse and also my main question is not knowing how to set up a shortcut on the Desktop for faster internet access to certain specified sites.... Thank you for any help you may be able to provide. I signed up for one on one training.... I hope it wasn't a waste of money.
    Make it a great week,

    Hi there
    This post may be under the wrong section, if you are a new Mac user, then you most likely have an Intel based Mac, not a PPC. And also, you may want to not write IN CAPS as it usually indicates yelling in a forum environment
    1. You cannot Cut & Paste on a Mac, you may Copy & Paste, if you want to Cut & Paste (CMD + X) you can download MoveAddict from the Mac App Store.
    2. EDIT: Sorry, I thought you meant Application shortcut - do what he said \/ \/ \/
    Hope that helps

  • How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1?

    How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1? We just upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, and we see no way to be able to open multiple screens at once. Before, there was a small button in the upper portion of any window. That button would take you from a particular window to the place where multiple windows are open at once. Does it do it differently? Is there a special setting button that we have missed? Thanks!
    One more thing: We are only talking about Safari.

    Guitaristica-
    I don't think I've seen a way to have separate Safari screens visible at the same time.  The small thumbnails were deleted in one of the iOS updates, and replaced with a multiple "Tab" system.
    You can open an additional screen in a new "tab" by pressing and holding on a link until a new menu comes up.

  • How do you add multiple effects to the same clip

    How do you had multiple effects to the same clip. I have tried for hours
    I would like to add sepia and aged movie to the same clip. I heard it can be done, but have not figured out how to do it.
    anyone please.

    Normally you can apply only one video effect at a time. But for Sepia, black and white, and others that can be done through the video Adjustments tab, you are in luck.
    Aged Movie should already have a bit of a sepia tone.
    If you want more of a sepia tone or you want to fine tune the sepia effect you can do it with the Clip Inspector/Video Adjustments tab.
    Note: Thanks to Jeff Carlson of MacWorld for this tip.
    If you're looking for a washed-out sepia appearance, first open iMovie's preferences and turn on the Show Advanced Tools option, which adds more controls to the Video Adjustments HUD and other areas of the program. Select the clip you want to alter and press the V key. Set Saturation to 0 percent, and then drag the Red Gain slider to 143 percent, the Green Gain slider to 90 percent, and the Blue Gain slider to 53 percent (feel free to tweak these settings to customize the results). Click on Done when you're finished. Note that the clip thumbnail still appears in color, as the video was shot, but the preview reflects your changes.--JC
    If you need to apply the same settings to all clips, first select the clip you have adjusted. Then Edit/Copy. Then Edit/Select All. Then Edit/Paste Adjustments.

    How do you add text that changes on the preloader as your site loads? for example a standard "0%" ... "100%" or even controll what frame a gif image displays?
    Thanks

    It is not easy to see and I found it by messing around. First of all put them in daye order by dragging the screen down and touching the little alarm clock at the top.  Then touch the space below the earlies reminder and a new one comes up. It defaults to 'today' so you have to touch the new reminder and then touch the 'i' button that appears. You can then change the date and time etc. No easy.
    I dont understand why Apple do these thongs before updating the user guide!
    Hope this helps.

  • How can you add a where clause using "OR" with applied ViewCriteria?

    [JDeveloper 10.1.3 SU4]
    [JHeadstart 10.1.3 build 78]
    I am using JHeadstart, but have a question probably more in the ADF area. On the JHeadstart forum I asked:
    "I am overriding JhsApplicationModule's advancedSearch in order to be able to search in childtables. I created transient attributes, display those in advanced search and in the overridden method I check if any of these are filled by the user and create a where clause like 'EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> AND <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>)'. I add this whereclause using ViewObject.setWhereClause.
    So far so good and it works. However, if the user selects 'Result matches any criteria', combining setWhereClause and the normal advancedSearch QueryByExample implementation using ViewCriteriaRow do not provide the desired result, since the ViewCriteria and the setWhereClause are AND-ed together, which is fine if the user selects the (default) "Results match all criteria" (everything is AND-ed) but not the "Result matches any criteria", since then every criterium is OR-ed together, except for the setwhereclause criteria and the set of ViewCriteriaRows, they are AND-ed.
    I looked if I could specify that a WhereClause will be OR-ed to existing applied ViewCriteria, but no luck. Do I have to rewrite also advancedSearch's ViewCriteria implementation and write an entire setWhereClause implementation to be able to "OR" every criterium? Or any other suggestions? Can I look at the entire Where clause and rewrite it (after applyCriteria and setWhereClause are called on the VO)?
    Toine"
    Sandra Muller (JHeadstart Team) told me today: "This sounds like a JDeveloper/ADF issue that is not related to JHeadstart. The question is: how can you add a where clause using "OR" if there are already one or more ViewCriteria applied?
    To simplify the test case, you could create a simple ADF BC test client class in a test Model project without JHeadstart (in the test class, use bc4jclient + Ctrl-Enter), in which you first apply a few ViewCriteriaRows to a View Object and also add a where clause.
    Can you please log a TAR at MetaLink ( http://metalink.oracle.com/ ), or ask this question at the JDeveloper forum at http://otn.oracle.com/discussionforums/jdev.html ? (This what I am doing now ;-))

    Anyone knowing the answer or am I asking for an enhancement?

    Hi,
    Can you SET your whereclause as follows ?
    ('Y' = <isAnd>
    and EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> AND <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>))
    OR ('N' = <isAnd>
    AND EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM <childtable> WHERE <column in childtable> = <column in EO's table> OR <another column in childtable> LIKE '<value supplied by user>))

  • How do you add multiple cells to the LARGE function?

    I want to add several cells which are contained on different sheets and tables to the same LARGE function and select the first ranking cell value.
    How do I add these cells as a single argument for this function?

    "...and select the first ranking cell value."
    Hi eobet,
    If your actual goal is as stated, you could use MAX, which will accept a list, a range, or a list of ranges as arguments.
    LARGE accepts only a single argument to establish the set of values, plus a single argument to establish the rank of the desired value. That means you need to collect all of the vlues into a sngle contiguous group/range, then specify that range as the set. The avantage, ofcourse, is that with LARGE, you can specify that you want the 'third largest' value in the set.
    Here's an example.
    The data set is column B on tables Data 1 and Data 2.
    The set is collected into a single contiguous range on the table Aux (which may be hidden, or placed on a separate sheet).
    LARGE collects the nth value from the collected set in Aux, using this formula in the table Summary:
    A2, and filled down: =LARGE(Aux :: A:B,ROW()-1)
    MAX returns the largest value from the original data set on Data 1 and Data 2, using this formula on the table Summary-1:
    A2: =MAX(Data 1 :: B,Data 2 :: B)

    Barry
