If you are docked to one of Apple’s Magic Keyboards or a 3rd party keyboard with the Globe/Function Key adequately integrated into the OS, the Globe Key + C and N will bring up Control Center and Notifications, respectively.
Rich, please consider a program on this problem: I am required to scan a 6 page document and to fill in info on each page, and then sign it and email it to my employer. It has been more difficult than I expected. The finished product winds up in FILES and only one page is done; I am sure I am not doing it correctly. Apple has supposedly created a fill in document procedure but it is not clear to me. Can you help me? Roger of Orlando

Hi Rich, I’m considering buying either a new 24” iMac OR a new iPad. Wondering what your thoughts are for a senior if the iPad would suffice? A light user ..fb, UA-cam, banking etc. Do you use strictly an iPad?
I'm not Rich, but if that's all you do, I think an iPad would be more than enough. The iMac has the advantage of having a much larger screen. So I suppose it comes down to screen size.
I thought buying this iPad would change my life. I have the greatest photo graphs from American wilderness and I do not care about wallpaper. That’s not gonna affect my life. There’s a lot of other stuff that’s meaningless. It has not made a positive influence. Thank you.
You can turn those beautiful wilderness photos into a home screen if you'd find that helpful. And you're right - iPads don't change lives. They're a tool. But for many, likely 94 yr old mom, they're a window into things she might not otherwise see. Thanks for watching.
Excellent post - thank you!

Thanks! I'm not sure I ever knew that. Or if I did, I forgot! I hope everyone sees your comment. Thanks so much for watching!

Can each focus have a dock that is setup different?
No the dock does not change
@@Jonathantuba too bad
It is too bad. That would bring a whole new level of functionality. When I discovered you couldn't make the change, I was like Apple?
You lost me when you said “open safari”, lol.
