Hi kim,


Press down on any icon and hold until they all begin to wiggle. If the icon you want gone has a little black "x" in the upper left-hand corner, you can click on that, and it will delete the app and the icon. If it does not have the "x", then it is a base app, and it cannot be deleted.


However, it can be moved to the very last screen. Press on the icon and hold until they all start to wiggle, then with your finger still on the icon you want to move slide it to the right. It will continue to go from screen to screen until you reach the last one. If you want to drop it on any screen in between, then just let go when you want it to drop.


Press the Home button once to stop the icons from wiggling.


Cheers,


GB
