WARNING: To avoid injury, read Important safety information on page 12 8 before using iPad.

Set up iPad

Set up iPad. Turn on iPad and follow the Setup Assistant.
The Setup Assistant guides you through the setup process, including:
Connecting to a Wi-Fi network
Signing in with or creating a free Apple ID
Entering a passcode
Setting up iCloud and iCloud Keychain
Turning on recommended features, such as Location Services and Find My iPad
During setup, you can copy your apps, settings, and content from another iPad by restoring from an iCloud backup or from iTunes. See Back up iPad on page 133 .
If you don’t have access to a Wi-Fi Internet connection during setup, you can use your computer’s Internet connection—just connect iPad to your computer when prompted by the Setup Assistant. For help connecting iPad to your computer, see Connect iPad to your computer on page 16.

Connect to Wi-Fi

If appears at the top of the screen, you’re connected to a Wi-Fi network, and iPad reconnects anytime you return to the same location.
Join a Wi-Fi network or adjust Wi-Fi settings. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi.
Choose a network: Tap one of the listed networks and enter the password, if asked.
Ask to join networks: Turn on Ask to Join Networks to be prompted when a Wi-Fi network is available. Otherwise, you must manually join a network when a previously used network isn’t available.
Forget a network: Tap next to a network you’ve joined before. Then tap Forget this Network.
Join other network: Tap Other, then enter the name of the network. You need to know the network name, security type, and password.
Set up your own Wi-Fi network. If you have a new or uncongured AirPort base station turned
on and within range, you can use iPad to set it up. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and look for “Set up an AirPort base station.” Tap your base station and the Setup Assistant does the rest.
13
Manage your AirPort network. If iPad is connected to an AirPort base station, go to Settings >
Wi-Fi, tap next to the network name, then tap Manage this Network. If you haven’t yet downloaded AirPort Utility, tap OK to open the App Store and download it (this requires an Internet connection).

Apple ID

Your Apple ID is the user name for a free account that lets you access Apple services, such as the iTunes Store, the App Store, and iCloud. You need only one Apple ID for everything you do with Apple. There may be charges for services and products that you use, purchase, or rent.
If you have an Apple ID, use it when you rst set up iPad, and whenever you need to sign in to
an Apple service. If you don’t already have an Apple ID, you can create one when you’re asked to sign in.
Create an Apple ID. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores and tap Sign In. (If you’re already
signed in and want to create another Apple ID, rst tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.)
For more information, see support.apple.com/kb/he37.

Set up mail and other accounts

iPad works with iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular Internet-based mail, contact, and calendar services.
If you don’t already have a mail account, you can set up a free iCloud account when you set up iPad, or set one up later in Settings > iCloud. See iCloud on page 15.
Set up an iCloud mail account. Go to Settings > iCloud.
Set up another account. Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
You can add contacts using an LDAP or CardDAV account, if your company or organization supports it. See Add contacts on page 72.
For information about setting up a Microsoft Exchange account in a corporate environment, see
Mail, Contacts, and Calendar on page 12 3 .

Manage content on your iOS devices

You can transfer information and les between iPad and your other iOS devices and computers,
using either iCloud or iTunes.
iCloud stores content such as music, photos, calendars, contacts, documents, and more, and wirelessly pushes it to your other iOS devices and computers, keeping everything up to date. See iCloud on page 15.
iTunes syncs music, video, photos, and more between your computer and iPad. Changes you make on one device are copied to the other when you sync. You can also use iTunes to
copy a le to iPad for use with an app, or to copy a document you’ve created on iPad to your
computer. See Sync with iTunes on page 17.
You can use iCloud or iTunes, or both, depending on your needs. For example, you can use iCloud Photo Stream to automatically push photos you take on iPad to your other devices, and use iTunes to sync photo albums from your computer to iPad.
Chapter 2 Getting Started 14
Important: To avoid duplicates, keep contacts, calendars, and notes in sync using iCloud or
iTunes, but not both.
You can also choose to manually manage content from iTunes by selecting that option in the iPad Summary pane. Then you can drag songs or videos from your iTunes library to iPad in
iTunes. This is useful if your iTunes library contains more items than can t on your iPad.
Note: If you use iTunes Match, you can manually manage only video.

For more information about iCloud, see www.apple.com/icloud. For support information, see
www.apple.com/support/icloud.

Connect iPad to your computer

Use the included USB cable to connect iPad to your computer. Connecting iPad to your computer lets you sync information, music, and other content with iTunes. You can also sync with iTunes wirelessly. See Sync with iTunes on page 17. To use iPad with your computer, you need:
A Mac with a USB 2.0 or 3.0 port, or a PC with a USB 2.0 port, and one of the following operating systems:
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
iTunes, available at www.itunes.com/download
Unless iPad is actively syncing with your computer, you can disconnect it at any time. Look at the top of the iTunes screen on your computer or on iPad to see if syncing is in progress. If you disconnect iPad while it’s syncing, some data may not get synced until the next time you connect iPad to your computer.
Chapter 2 Getting Started 16

Sync with iTunes

Syncing with iTunes copies information from your computer to iPad, and vice versa. You can sync by connecting iPad to your computer with the included USB cable, or you can set up iTunes to sync wirelessly using Wi-Fi. You can set iTunes to sync music, photos, videos, podcasts, apps, and more. For information about syncing iPad, open iTunes on your computer, then select iTunes Help from the Help menu.
Sync wirelessly. Connect iPad to your computer using the included USB cable. In iTunes on your computer, select iPad, click Summary, then turn on “Sync with this iPad over Wi-Fi.”
When Wi-Fi syncing is turned on, iPad syncs when it’s connected to a power source, both iPad and your computer are connected to the same wireless network, and iTunes is open on the computer.
Tips for syncing with iTunes on your computer
Connect iPad to your computer, select it in iTunes, and set options in the dierent panes.
In the Summary pane, you can set iTunes to sync iPad automatically when it’s attached to your computer. To temporarily override this setting, hold down Command and Option (Mac) or Shift and Control (PC) until you see iPad appear in the iTunes window.
If you want to encrypt the information stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup, select “Encrypt iPad backup” in the Summary pane. Encrypted backups are indicated by a lock icon , and a password is required in order to restore the backup. If you don’t select this option, other passwords (such as those for mail accounts) aren’t included in the backup and you’ll have to reenter them if you use the backup to restore iPad.
When you sync mail accounts in the Info pane, only the settings are transferred from your computer to iPad. Changes you make to an account on iPad don’t sync to your computer.
In the Info pane, click Advanced to select options that let you replace the information on iPad with the information from your computer during the next sync.
In the Photo pane, you can sync photos and videos from a folder on your computer.

Your iPad name

The name of your iPad is used by iTunes and iCloud.
Change the name of your iPad. Go to Settings > General > About > Name.

Date and time

The date and time are usually set for you based on your location—take a look at the Lock screen to see if they’re correct.
Set whether iPad updates the date and time automatically. Go to Settings > General >
Date & Time, then turn Set Automatically on or o. If you set iPad to update the time
automatically, it gets the correct time over the network and updates it for the time zone you’re in. Some networks don’t support network time, so in some areas iPad may not be able to automatically determine the local time.
Set the date and time manually. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time, then turn o Set Automatically.
Set whether iPad shows 24-hour time or 12-hour time. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time,
then turn 24-Hour Time on or o. (24-Hour Time may not be available in all areas.)
