[Harrisonjazzensemble]

Just getting stared wiTh ireal book, and love it so far. Two questions... First, I can't seem to access the search box in song mode. It is there, but when I attempt to drag down to access it, it springs back up to wherenI can't use it. Secondly, how do I access the great drills That are are part of ireal book? AftermI loaded some playlists I can't find them.

Thanks for reporting your problem on the search field. Force quitting the app then relaunching usually resets it.
The drills all have the composer name 'exercise' so can be found under composer or searching the keyword.

Force Quit?

Thanks for the data. I'm on an iPad. How do I force quit the app?

Best,

Roger

...How do I force quit the app?

double-press the Home button. The icons of the suspended apps appear at the bottom. Swipe sideways along the bottom to find iReal b. Long press on iReal b. They should wiggle. Tap the cross X on iReal b icon. This will quit it. Press the Home button once to revert to normal operation mode.
Re-launch iReal b.
If this does not work, you might have to turn your iPad off completely then restart.

Great, I will try this.

The possibilities for live gigging are infinite with this app!

I am quite amazed at this app! I've figured quite a bit on how to use it, but there a couple points I could use help on. First, setting loops. I'm not sure how to do this. The default setting can have 2 or 3 repeats or none and it looks the same. How does one set it?

Second is the question of how to create customized set lists. As I'm a singer, I would want to pre set songs, styles and keys before the gig. Possible to do?

Best, Roger

First, setting loops. I'm not sure how to do this. The default setting can have 2 or 3 repeats or none and it looks the same. How does one set it?

Do you mean loops for practicing certain bars? Tap the Loop (icon) in Song view. You can set how many times you want it to loop.
Or do you mean repeats in the song (like 6x section A)? Use Text under the measure, typing in...
6x

Look under Player

Second is the question of how to create customized set lists.

These are called Playlists.

Post back here if you are still having problems and someone will help you.

dflat,

am new to iRealb and have just experienced a similar problem to previous post (can't search). Had been using the app successfully during a morning practice session, but left the iPad on. When I returned an hour later to continue, I found I could not search in any of the lists. Luckily I went onto this forum and found the fix, thanks dflat. (in my case I had to switch the iPad off and restart). Just letting you know in case there is a trend beginning with this issue. Otherwise a fantastic app. Will be using it lots and hope to get a on gigs soon. Need a stand for the iPad for that, though, anybody any recommendations?

Regards, bassman1

Bassman1,
we have been investigating this issue but it's been very elusive so far.
Are you already upgraded your iPad to iOS 5 or still on iOS 4?
