Tutorial: take a screenshot on a iPad 2
This tutorial explains the process to take a screenshot from your iPad or iPhone screen. There is no app required to take the screenshots.
1) Navigate to the screen that that shall be saved as screenhot. In my example I will take a screenshot of the home screen.
2) Press the “Power” button (in the upper right corner of the iPad) and the “Home” button (in the middle of the lower bar of the iPad) simultaniously.
You will hear a “camera click” and the screen will fade to white for a second when the screenshot is taken. The screenshot is saved into Photos folder on the iPad.
To view the screenshot, open the “Photos” app:
and tap on the photo.

and select “Email Photo”:
This tutorial works on iPad and iPad 2 and iPhone.



great expaning
check out good tuts on my website

Is there a similar way to take copy of selected area?
very good article i like it Thank you for this tutorial.
Is there a similar way if in off line mode?
Thanks but I keep noticing an annoying problem: several people on the forums claim that one cannot change the default screenshot format from png. I managed to change it to jpg at one point, to keep smaller email attachments, but now I forgot how I did it!
So I have my pics (screenshots) in jog but would like them back in png. How?
