Cannot move app icons to the right to another page on iPad Air
Question marked as
If you're having trouble moving app icons to another page on your iPad Air, try these steps:
1. Ensure the Home Screen isn't Locked:
- Go to Settings > Home Screen & Dock and ensure "Lock Home Screen Layout" is turned off.
2. Restart Your iPad:
- Sometimes, a simple restart can fix minor issues. Press and hold the power button, then slide to power off. Turn it back on after a few seconds.
3. Try Moving the Icons Again:
- Tap and hold the app icon until all icons start jiggling.
- Drag the icon to the edge of the screen until it moves to the next page. If you drag it far enough, it should automatically create a new page if needed.
4. Check for Software Updates:
- Go to Settings > General > Software Update and make sure your iPad is running the latest version of iOS.
If these steps don’t work, it might be helpful to reset your Home Screen layout. Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen Layout. Note that this will return your Home Screen to the default layout.
