iPad Pro How to lock the arrangement of icons on ipad?

[Rachel Faith]

I have a new 12.9 iPad and tried to drag icons ffor apps to different pages for easy organization.

They wont stay.

They auto wrap to the previous page.

If I have only 18 apps on a topic like editing music, and I want to have them on one page, why can I not do this?

I do this on my iPhone easily.

The iPad seems to demand they all flow one to the next with no gaps and a full 30 icon page.

That's not normal behavior - you should be able to move a single (or more) icon to a new page and it stays there. You could try a reset of the home screen (General->Reset->Reset Home Screen Layout). This will automatically rearrange all your icons into alphabetical order - a pain - but you could see if it fixes this problem.
