    the ones I frequently use are:
    CTRL + PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN to move between tabs
    CTRL + W to close Tab/Window

    Ooh, thanks, I love a good keyboard shortcut and I didn't know these ones.

    I mainly use a laptop but i think for desktop PC its CTRL + TAB to move forward & CTRL + SHIFT + TAB to go back. :)

    Thank you all so much for your tips etc. I shall put them all into action.

    I'm probably going to sound a bit dense, but Toniq what do you mean by creating Folders?

    I really want to get organised before everything kicks off.

    Use this simple guide and drag the comps of interest into them.

  • Ok sorry to jump in on your thread, this is interesting to me to as just started comping. Ok so based on the above I have downloaded last pass onto my iPad (use iPad to enter competitions as hate sitting in kitchen where the computer is!) anyway I think I expected miracles as I expected it just to fill in the field where it asks for my name email etc! It doesn't do this and I've looked and can't find an obvious way to add details so it does auto fill. I'm quite stupid, nights of sleep deprivation looking after my you g children doesn't help! Any ideas? Thanks

    I tried LP on my iPod, which uses the same OS as the iPads, and could not get it to work either, think you have to have the paid for version of Last Pass.

    Thanks jewels84, I am using a Mac but CTRL + TAB works for me as well so that's great.

    Thanks again.
