How to group move icons

just updated to 4.1
icons are now located on 5th and 6th screens, want to group move them, possibly back to now (nearly) blank 2nd screen.
Is there a way to do this ?

It's very simple to create a folder, move it to a new screen, then drag the apps out of it. You're right, it's a little kludgy, but it's all there is for now.
Hint 2: Also, if your 2nd screen is nearly empty, just drag the icons off of it. When you press the Home button, the empty screen will disappear.
Hint 3: You may find it easier to move lots of icons around in iTunes than directly on the iPhone. You can then sync the new arrangement.

    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 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 you move icons

    I just got my first smart phone and it's an Apple i5s, so long story short I'm new to these things. I'm trying to move icons from one screen to the another and I'm wondering how to do this. If I touch an icon and hold it for a few seconds the screen starts to shake and it appears as though I can move it around, but when I do it just goes back to its original location. Not a big problem, but any help would be appreciated.

    You are doing it correctly.
    Just keep trying.  You will get the hang of it.
    You can also arrange them from itunes on your computer.
    Click Support at the top of this page, then iphone.  You can get to the manual from there.

  • How to "group" movies

    Hi, in the past I used to "group" movies with a specific item on iTunes (Program name), doing so watching with my Apple TV 1G they were rendered as "grouped" on the list, let me to explain: suppose to have three movies of "Toy Story" (1, 2 and 3), using that field in iTunes with the name " Toy Story" on Apple TV 1G I had a single movie title " Toy Story" with a > and clicking on it I can select one of the three movies.
    This was very useful to limit the large number of movies into a specific genre...anyway this don't work anymore on my Apple TV 2G that took the place onto my previous one (1G).
    I don't know if the problem is about 2G or to iTunes version so I'm asking here hoping to have a reply.
    Anyone could make a test and let me know if I have to change something ?
    Thanks, best regards.
    Roberto.

    Unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it, yes it's very frustrating and represents one of a handful of features the Apple TV 1 had that the 2 doesn't. Not that it's important but it's not just limited to the Apple TV, all iOS devices are afflicted by this. Whether or not it can be achieved under iOS I don't know.

  • How do I move icons between screens?

    Friends,
    I have an ipad2 and an iphone.  On the iphone, I can easily drag icons between screens by press and holding, then dragging the icon to the side -- the adjacent screen the appears and I can drag the icon to that screen.  When I try the same thing on my ipad2, the adjacent screen does not appear.  I'm able to move the icons when connected to itunes, but that's a pain.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks!
    Steve

    All you are missing is patience. Move the icon to the edge of the screen and hold it about halfway over to the next screen for a second or two. Then suddenly the app will jump to the next screen.

    How do I move icons from second page to main home page??

    Tap and hold down on the icon until it begins to "wiggle". Hold down on the icon and drag it to the edge of the screen. Slowly drag it about half way over to the next screen and hold it there for a couple of seconds and it will jump to the next screen. Just hold it about halfway over - take patience.
    You can place 20 apps on one screen but you can create folders by dragging one icon on top of another icon while are the icons are still "wiggling".

  • When is select Bookmarks from the Menu Bar, at the very bottom are a bunch of bookmarks. How can I move them in groups to a folder?

    When is select Bookmarks from the Menu Bar, at the very bottom are a bunch of bookmarks. How can I move these in groups to a folder or folders?

    The easiest way to move bookmarks around is in the Bookmarks Organizer, which at some point was renamed the Library. To open it, you can choose Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks or press Ctrl+Shift+b.
    (Please note that the sort order of the Library dialog doesn't actually carry over to the menu. To sort the menu alphabetically, it's easiest to open the Bookmarks Sidebar, right-click the words Bookmarks Menu and choose Sort by Name.)

  • I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone?

    I just noticed that some of the movies I had in iTunes did not get transferred to the iPhone 5. The missing movies are shown as generic movie icons in the iTunes panel and are checked to select them. But they do not show up in iPhone Videos. How do I get the original movies to show up again and transfer to the iPhone? I recently upgraded Mac OS to 10.6.8

    1. iTunes won't offer cloud downloads for songs that it "thinks" are in your library, even if it "knows" the files are missing. If you've exhaustively searched for the missing files and there is no prospect of repair by restoring to them to their original locations, or connecting to new ones, then delete that tracks that display both the missing exclamation mark and are of media kind Purchased/Protected AAC audio file. Don't hide from iTunes in the cloud when asked, close iTunes, then reopen. You can download from the cloud links or iTunes Store > Quicklinks > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer > All songs > Download all.
    2. Why? Not sure, perhaps 3rd party tools or accidental key presses combined with previously hidden warning messages when trying to organize the library. There is a hint that using the feature to downsample media as it is synced to a device may also be involved, though I've not replicated it. Whatever the reason a backup would protect your media.

  • How do I Move video files from films to tv programmes and group the series together?

    I've recently ripped a tv series from DVD and successfully converted to play on iPad and iPhone. However it's listed all the videos under the "films" tab as individual files. How do I move them into the TV programme tab and group them together?
    Thanks for any help,
    Rick

    Select the files and Get Info. On the Options tab change the media kind to TV Show. On the Video tab set the Show name. Working with individual files set increasing Episode IDs of the form s01e01 and enter Episode Numbers. Leave Season Number blank if you want multiple seasons listed as a single object.
