But if you don't like the addresses listed, you can deselect them there. FaceTime does audio
chats too, often with a better connection than a cellular phone call.
To turn off the iPad, do this:
1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until a red arrow appears at the top of the screen.
2. Drag the arrow from the left to the right with your finger.
Tap Cancel at the bottom of the screen if you change your mind.
Locking the iPad mini
Carrying a naked cellphone in your pocket or a handbag is begging for trouble. Unless the phone has
a locking mechanism, you may inadvertently dial a phone number.
You don't have to worry about dialing your boss at 4 a.m. on an iPad — it's not a phone, after all
(though apps such as Line2 or Skype can turn it into one). But you still have these sound reasons to
lock your iPad:
You won't inadvertently turn it on.
You keep prying eyes at bay.
You spare the battery some juice.
Apple makes locking the iPad a cinch.
In fact, you don't need to do anything to lock the iPad mini; it happens automatically
as long as you don't touch the screen for a minute or two. As you find out in Chapter 15 , you
can also set the amount of time your iPad must be idle before it automatically locks.
Can't wait? To lock the iPad immediately, press the Sleep/Wake button.
If you have an optional Smart Cover for the iPad mini (or a third-party equivalent),
opening and closing the cover locks and unlocks your iPad, but the Smart Cover has the ad-
ded advantage of awakening your iPad without your dragging the slider (though you may still
have to enter a passcode).
Unlocking the iPad is easy, too. Here's how:
1. Press the Sleep/Wake button or the Home button on the front of the screen.
