I heard that most tablets have odd things you can do to take a screen shot. I'd really like this - pocket messes up format and my dads got a screen shot button on his tablet (jealous of that, but love my Acer!) I looked this up, and found that Acer screen shot is achieved with the power button...

I would really like to use a separate Bluetooth receiver with my A500...Would make it a lot more convenient and comfortable in many instances...I noticed that there are Aps that supposedly "disable" the internal GPS in the tablet and allow the Bluetooth GPS to take over...Do they work? Any...

Here's what's going on. For the last few days I've been trying to see what's consuming all my space (I had about 400 MB free on the internal memory). It would NEVER finish calculating, even if left on that screen overnight. Last night, while trying to clear space I was removing a...

Is there a way to remove only certain saved passwords on the Acer Iconia Tab A500? :rolleyes: Anyone???

Hi all. I have an issue with my A500s (HS teacher w/a class set) and using a USB keyboard. At random times, typing on the keyboard brings up seemingly random apps. Upon doing some research, I found that these are shortcuts that are hard-coded into the Android OS. The shortcuts can be easily...

I've had my A500 for over a year and a half. I love it, but it would be so much better if I could print directly from it.
