Chapter 1 At a Glance

Getting Started

Read this chapter to learn how to set up iPad, set up mail accounts, use iCloud, and more.

What you need

WARNING: To avoid injury, read all operating instructions in this guide and safety information

in the iPad Important Product Information Guide at support.apple.com/manuals/ipad before using iPad.

To use iPad, you need:

An Apple ID for some features, including iCloud, the App Store and iTunes Store, and Â online purchases

An Internet connection (broadband is recommended) Â

To use iPad with your computer, you need:

A Mac or a PC with a USB 2.0 port and one of the following operating systems: Â

Mac OS X version 10.5.8 or later Â

Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later Â

iTunes 10.5 or later (for some features), available at Â www.itunes.com/download

Setting up iPad

To set up iPad, turn it on and follow the Setup Assistant. The onscreen directions in Setup Assistant step you through the setup process, including connecting to a Wi-Fi network, signing in with or creating a free Apple ID, setting up iCloud, and 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 “Backing up iPad” on page 134.

Setting up mail and other accounts

iPad works with iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular Internet-based mail, contacts, and calendar service providers. If you don’t already have a mail account, you can set up a free iCloud account when you set up iPad, or later in Settings > iCloud.

Set up an account: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

For information about iCloud, see “Using iCloud” on page 18 .

You can add contacts using an LDAP or CardDAV account, if your company or organization supports it. See “Syncing contacts” on page 71.

For information about setting up a Microsoft Exchange account in a corporate environment, see “Setting up Microsoft Exchange accounts” on page 12 7.

Managing content on iPad

You can transfer information and les between iPad and your other iOS devices and computers

using either iCloud or iTunes.

Â iCloud stores your photos, apps, contacts, calendars, and more, and wirelessly pushes them

to your devices. When something changes on one of your devices, your other devices are automatically updated. See “Using iCloud,” below.

Â 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 “Syncing with iTunes” on page 19 .

You can use iCloud or iTunes, or both, depending on your needs. For example, you can use 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.

Note: You shouldn’t sync items on the Info pane of iTunes (such as contacts, calendars, and notes) and also use iCloud to keep that information up to date on your devices. If you do both, you may see duplicated data on iPad.

Using iCloud

iCloud is a service that stores your content—mail, contacts, calendars, reminders, bookmarks, notes, photos, and documents—and wirelessly pushes it to your devices and computers, automatically keeping everything up to date.

iCloud features include:

Automatic Downloads—Automatically download new music, app, and book purchases to Â your devices.

Download Previous Purchases—View previous iTunes Store and App Store purchases and Â download them again if needed.

Photo Stream—When you take a photo on one device, automatically get it on your other Â devices. See “Photo Stream” on page 52.

Documents & Data—Store documents and data for apps that work with iCloud. Â

Find My iPad—Locate your iPad on a map, display a message, play a sound, lock the screen, Â or remotely wipe the data. See “Find My iPad” on page 36.

You can also back up iPad to iCloud. See “Backing up with iCloud” on page 13 5 .

With iCloud, you get a free mail account and 5 GB of storage for your mail, documents, and backup. Your purchased music, apps, TV shows, and books, as well as your Photo Stream, don’t count against your free space.

Note: iCloud is not available in all areas, and iCloud features may vary by area. For more information about iCloud, go to www.apple.com/icloud.

If you have a MobileMe subscription, you can migrate it to iCloud at me.com/move.

Syncing with iTunes

Syncing with iTunes copies information from a computer to iPad, and vice versa. You can sync by connecting iPad to your computer using the Dock Connector to USB Cable, or you can set up iTunes to sync wirelessly using Wi-Fi. You can set iTunes to sync music, photos, video, podcasts, apps, and more. For detailed information about syncing iPad with a computer, open iTunes then select iTunes Help from the Help menu.

Set up wireless iTunes syncing: Connect iPad to your computer using the Dock Connector to USB Cable. In iTunes, turn on “Sync over Wi-Fi connection” in the device’s Summary pane.

When Wi-Fi syncing is turned on, iPad automatically syncs every day. iPad must be connected to a power source, both iPad and your computer must be on the same wireless network, and iTunes must be open on the computer. For more information, see “iTunes Wi-Fi Sync.”

Tips for syncing with iTunes

If you’re using iCloud to store your contacts, calendars, bookmarks, and notes, don’t also sync Â them to iPad using iTunes.

Purchases you make on iPad in the iTunes Store or the App Store are synced back to your Â iTunes library. You can also purchase or download content and apps from the iTunes Store on your computer, and then sync them to iPad.

In the device’s Summary pane, you can set iTunes to automatically sync iPad when it’s attached Â to your computer. To temporarily override this, hold down Command and Option (Mac) or Shift and Control (PC) until you see your iPad appear in the sidebar.

In the device’s Summary pane, select “Encrypt backup” if you want to encrypt the information Â stored on your computer when iTunes makes a backup. Encrypted backups are indicated by a lock icon , and you need a password to restore the backup. If you don’t select this option, passwords (such as those for mail accounts) aren’t included in the backup and have to be reentered if you use the backup to restore iPad.

In the device’s Info pane, when you sync mail accounts, only the settings are transferred from Â

your computer to iPad. Changes you make to a mail account on iPad don’t aect the account

on your computer.

In the device’s Info pane, click Advanced to select options that let you Â replace the information on iPad with the information from your computer during the next sync.

Chapter 2 Getting Started

If you listen to part of a podcast or audiobook, your stopping point is included if you sync the Â

content with iTunes. If you started listening on iPad, you can pick up where you left o in iTunes

on your computer—or vice versa.

In the device’s Photo pane, you can sync photos and videos from a folder on your computer. Â

Connecting iPad to your computer

Use the included Dock Connector to USB Cable to connect iPad to your computer. Connecting iPad to your computer allows you to sync information, music, and other content with iTunes. You can also sync with iTunes wirelessly. See “Syncing with iTunes.”

Unless iPad is syncing with your computer, you can disconnect it at any time. If you disconnect while a sync is in progress, some data may not get synced until the next time you connect iPad to your computer.

Cancel a sync: Drag the slider on iPad.

Viewing the user guide on iPad

You can view the iPad User Guide on iPad in Safari, or you can install the free iBooks app and download the guide from the iBookstore.

Charge the battery: The best way to charge the iPad battery is to connect iPad to a power outlet using the included Dock Connector to USB Cable and 10W USB power adapter. When you connect iPad to a USB 2.0 port on a Mac with the Dock Connector to USB Cable, iPad may charge slowly while syncing.

Important: The iPad battery may drain instead of charge if iPad is connected to a PC, to a computer

that’s turned o or is in sleep or standby mode, to a USB hub, or to the USB port on a keyboard.

If your Mac or PC doesn’t provide enough power to charge iPad, a Not Charging message appears in the status bar. To charge iPad, disconnect it from your computer and connect it to a power outlet using the included Dock Connector to USB Cable and 10W USB Power Adapter.

Important: If iPad is very low on power, it may display one of the following images, indicating that

iPad needs to charge for up to ten minutes before you can use it. If iPad is extremely low on power, the display may be blank for up to two minutes before one of the low-battery images appears.

Maximizing battery life

iPad uses a lithium-ion battery. For information about maximizing the battery life of iPad, go to www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html.

Chapter 2 Getting Started

Replacing the battery

The iPad battery isn’t user replaceable; it can be replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service Provider (AASP). Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. AASPs also recycle iPad batteries according to local laws and regulations. For information, go to www.apple.com/batteries/replacements.html.

Using and cleaning iPad

It’s important to nd a comfortable posture when using iPad, and to take frequent breaks. Use

your lap, or a table, case, or dock accessory, to support iPad during use.

Handle iPad with care, to maintain its appearance. If you’re concerned about scratching or abrasion of the screen, you can use a case or a cover, sold separately.

To clean iPad, unplug all cables and turn o iPad (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the

red slider appears, then slide the onscreen slider). Use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays, solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPad. The iPad screen has an oleophobic coating; simply wipe the screen with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oil left by your hands. The ability of this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an

abrasive material will further diminish its eect and may scratch your screen.

For more information about handling iPad, see the iPad Important Product Information Guide at support.apple.com/manuals/ipad.

Many apps, such as Mail and the App Store, display an alert badge on their Home screen icon with a number (to indicate incoming items) or an exclamation mark (to indicate a problem). If the app is in a folder, the badge appears on the folder as well. A numbered badge shows the total number of items you haven’t attended to, such as incoming mail messages and updated apps to download. An alert badge indicates a problem with the app.
