How do you get the case open??

you extend the butterfly handle and turn it to release/unlatch the latch and open? Hope this helps.

You have to take it out of the case. The case doesn't open all the way out, there are little hinge straps that only let it open so far.

Really, there is no easy way to do it. When you first get the case, you pretty much have to break it in. If you have like a small flat head screwdriver, you can kinda use that to "pop" it out. I used my fingernails, and let me tell you, I thought I would bust one, but I didn't. Hope this helps.

Try getting a smaller Phillips screwdriver to get it open, which you can find at any hardware store

On the right side of the case there is a little space towards the bottom where you can pull it apart. Don't pull to hard to where you break it. Hope this helped

Press it down manually with your finger. Press it once and it's closed, press it again and it's open.

Set the case on your lap with the hinge down.Put your fingers on the edge of the lower half of the case (keyboard side) pull down, then open. It opens right up, and you won't loosen the latch to where it does not hold. This is one of the strong suits of this case for me. I've had others which resulted in screen scratching due to the case not holding in a travel bag.

There are some clips on the side that they snap into place you have to use your finger nail or something to push them up or in to be able to get it open. Once you get those going then you should try to wedge something in there so as it stays open and then do the others. Either do it from the top or the bottom and then go from there. Be gentle. its difficult to open but once you put your "CLEANED" i pad in there next to nothing gets to it. Dust water etc and every few(4/5) months pop it open and clean it out.

I've been doing it by opening the case so everything is facing upward with the latch/ipad on the right (I'm right-handed), holding the latch slightly toward the inside with my right thumb and using the fingers of my left hand to push slightly upward on the back of the top left corner of the case while using my left thumb to snap the corner of the case off of the ipad. Repeat with the lower left corner then reach to the top left again (where the cut-out for the headphone jack is) and lift the ipad out. Mine comes out very easily now but it was probably a bit difficult the first few times :-)

I use a corner of a credit card /guitar pick and slide it in between the hard case halves. Start at the volume or power button hole and work it towards the bottom of the phone. Hope this helps. Merry Christmas

Hi, it can be a little awkward to open. On the handle side (not the hinge side) under the handle there is a stand, the the handle which is longer has a lip ( Make sure you hold the handle at the tip), then pull the bottom, where the stand is away from the handle that juts out a little farther. Hope this helps

I use a rotation method. Holding the case vertically, place your first finger on the back of the clasp and thumb of the same hand on the front, then rotate pushing your first finger forward and your thumb back toward your hand. It's a twisting motion like opening a soda bottle with just your first finger and thumb.

Poke your finger thru the front opening to grip the front of case and pull apart. Here's a video on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVfi3PiJF5g. It's a very good case. My daughter loves hers.

It's easy just push hard and it will open! Pls read the directions on the box! Thanks

Using the clear tab on the front of the case apply even pressure to lift up. Use two thumbs if necessary.

That's funny because I had the same question! I tried and tried but could not figure out how to get the darn thing open!!!
