iOS Basics Class
Seminar leaders are volunteers, not experts
We had a good start for iOS Basics. I just prepared an email that was upbeat and friendly and also informative. But somehow in moving from my laptop to my iPad it vanished! I’m ready to cry. But I have some follow-up information from our first meeting to share. This will be sparse but hopefully helpful.
Our iPhone only participants might feel left out, at least on the first session where I demonstrated all things from my iPad. But there are places you can get additional information and go at your own pace. Here’s my beginning list:
- Apple Support options for both iPhone and iPad
- https://getsupport.apple.com/?caller=sm
- Apple Support on YouTube channel

- Apple Support on Twitter

- Today at Apple - Roseville Galleria or Arden Fair

- 4th Wednesday, 7-9 pm & 1st Saturday 9-noon for workshop/triage
One question asked in class was about undoing junk status in email. I wonder how we could make a Google search on this topic question. Open Safari and type in the search field at the top: "how to undo junk mail on ipad"
When looking at search results for iOS questions, here are some websites with good information:

Correct false-positives:Filtering out junk mail can block a legitimate email from reaching your inbox. This is called a false-positive. If you feel that a legitimate email message was accidentally filtered, you can mark it as not junk sothat any future messages from the same sender go to your inbox:
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 7or later, open the message in the Junk folder, tapthe folder icon at the bottom, then tap Inbox to move the message.
Again, read the User Guide for your device and version of the operating system
