All done, even found the music Ap which I had shunted over to page 6, it was the only thing there got everything moved where I want until I buy more apps or get them free. So nice not to have News stand on the front page and to have put game center next to it on page 5 for now. I don't think I have ever had more than four pages, because if it does not work I keep it on the computer but not on the phone, same thing if it is an app I don't use for anything because I found one that was better. I think I may have 40 apps on the phone.
Then again, I don't have FaceBook or Twitter, working and no time to play with social networking, would like to someday but not possible right now. Thanks for listening to my frustration, I was tired and stressed and not getting results probably because I was moving too fast. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Carol Pearson Sent: Saturday, June 30, 2012 11:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: IPhone frustration Rose, Tell you what I'd do for the moment, and remember this is only for as long as you don't get round to moving all appps: I'd double up an item from the dock with another, thus creating a doc space. Never mind that you then have a folder for, say, music and something else. I'd then get this shortcut into that dock position on whatever page it currently is sitting, then you have it on all pages. Eventually you can sort things more to your own liking. Hope this helps! It does save tiredness and frustration, believe me!
