Screen shots with ipad camera

how do I take a screen shot using my ipad camera?  I read in the WSJ that you hold down the home and on/off keys, but when I do that  I just get the hard shut down screen.  Am i doing something wrong?  thanks!

No, same process works on all iOS devices. You must be doing something not quite right.
Whilst holding the Home button (the one on the front of the device below the screen) just tap the on/off switch. That's all there is to it. You must make sure you are holding the Home button before tapping the on/off switch.

  • Screen shots with ipad air

    Hi, how do I take screen shots on the ipad air? I seem to be shutting my ipad down when I try holding the off switch and the home key.

    Tap the On/Off button, then quickly tap the home button. You don't need to hold the buttons for longer than ~1 second. The captured photo will be in your camera roll.

  • Screen Shot with Ipad

    For some reason I am unable to "screenshot" from Ipad, when I hold down home and on/off key, it shuts off my IPad, is there a setting I have to change??? Also have the same issue on my IPhone.
    thanks any advice or tricks would be greatly appreicated.

    You may need to calibrate Home Button
    1. Open a stock application like Calendar, Weather or Youtube
    2. Hold down the power button until the "slide to power off" control appears
    3. As soon as you see it, press the Home button and keep it pressed until the red slider disappears and the app is forced quit to the Home menu

  • How do I take screen shots with the new update iOS 5 on my iPad and iPhone?

    When I try to take screen shots on both my iPad and iPhone they both come up with the screen to shut down the devices. I've updated both with iOS 5. Any clues on how to take a screen shot with iOS 5?

    As with the previous iOS versions.
    Press and hold the Home button and use the on/off or sleep/wake button as a camera shutter button for the screen shot.
    Or while pressing and holding the on/off or sleep/wake button before the slide to power of appears, use the Home button as a camera shutter button - this must be done before the slide to power off appears.

  • In power mac g5, how to take Automatic Screen Shot with Date

    in power mac g5, how to take Automatic Screen Shot with Date ?
    please help me

    If you are standing by, and activating the process by keyboard
    you could be sure to include the open Date Time menu bar
    image in a complete screenshot, using cmd shift 3. Or outline
    the area you want if not full-screen, by using cmd shift 4.
    The command button may also have an apple icon on it.
    So that's the three key shortcuts for full & partial screen.
    For a more automated method, perhaps try using software to
    run an AppleScript, like Automator. Then write a script or find
    one that you can modify to do tasks and test it.
    There may be other methods, however identifying your intent
    would be higher on the list at this time; to narrow the method.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Screenshot works fine for me in iOS 6.
    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off".

    How to make a screenshot on an iPad

    Hold down the sleep and home keys for just a second....like you'd do the shutter on a camera. You'll see a little white flash and hear a clicking sound. Then the screen shot should be in your photos app.

  • Screen Shot with Final Cut Pro???

    does final cut have like a screen shot deal. what i am trying to do is take a screen shot or freeze a frame of video and make it a JPG. and i havent figured it out. am i calling it a different name than what it is. i have just started with Final cut. so i am a newbie

    If you want a shot of your screen or even just a section of it, you can use Grab.
    If you want to export a still frame of a video clip from FCP that you can use in other programs (Photoshop, etc), park the FCP playhead on the frame you want and then go to File->Export->Using QuickTime Conversion. Choose "Still Image" from the Format menu and then choose the file type from the Options menu.

  • Take screen shot with AIR application

    Hi,
    Anybody know about how to capture screen shot of our screen with an desktop AIR application? I need to create an desktop app with screenshot taking feature.
    Thanks

    Yes,
    I think you can use the ImageSnapShot class, and thern use the bitmap data from it as you desire.
    You can use the snapshot to take a grab of any element/child in your application or presumably you can take a snapshot of the main application if you want the whole lot.
    I used this method recently to print a screen state.
    var imgWidth:Number = 400;
    var img:SWFLoader = new SWFLoader();
    img.id = "appSnapShot";
    var imageSnap:ImageSnapshot = ImageSnapshot.captureImage(myScreenInstance as IBitmapDrawable);
    var imageByteArray:ByteArray = imageSnap.data as ByteArray;
    img.load(imageByteArray);
    img.scaleContent = true;
    img.width = imgWidth;
    img.maintainAspectRatio = true;
    application.addElement(img);
    Maybe that will help.
