Question

How can I take a photo already on my iPad and then send it to a forum where I am describing it? Need a very simple procedure.

Community Answer

If you're attempting to upload a photo to an online forum, you won't be able to send it to the forum directly via email. And if your photo is located in your "Photos" folder, you won't be able to simply copy and paste it into the forum. One potential workaround is to send a photo to yourself as an email (e.g. using the same Share button described in Method One) and then copy the photo from your received email. Then you should be able to paste it into the forum if it supports images.

Question

I don't understand Step 2 under Method One. It says tap the "share" button at the top, righthand part of the screen. I don't see such a button.

Community Answer

The button will look like a sheet of paper with an arrow pointing upward from the top. Note the image associated with Step 2, and you'll see a finger pointing to the button in question.

Question

How will I know the person has received the link?

Community Answer

You will probably have to check with your recipient directly via some kind of online messaging, email or even text messaging or a phone call. You can always include a message in your email saying something like, "Please let me know if you get this."

I do that, but anything with links is not going to recipient.

Community Answer

You may want to double-check that you've set up your Mail program. You can either link it to an existing email account (e.g. Gmail) or set up a new email address.

I did exactly as above, but I'm unable to complete any stage in the process. It disappears back to only the web page.
