Welcome!

This Quick Start Guide is intended to guide you through the initial setup and basic use of the Bretford PowerSync Tray

Using PowerSync Tray for iPad

The PowerSync Tray for iPad enables you to take music, videos, podcasts, photos and other content files in your iTunes library on

your Mac and sync your selected content across 10 iPad devices at a time.

Getting Started …

Step 1 Configure iTunes

for use with PowerSync Tray

By default, iTunes will automatically
check for new software updates,
including available updates for iTunes
& any attached iPads. This feature,
however, can often interfere with
syncing multiple iPads. To prevent
iTunes from automatically checking
for updates, Choose “Preferences…”
from the iTunes menu, and on the
“General” pane, deselect “Check for
new software updates automatically”.

Also, open “Devices” from this “General” pane, and be sure no boxes are checked,
nor are there any listings under “Device backups”.

Step 2 Configure each iPad Device for use with the PowerSync Tray

ATTENTION: For optimal performance, you must set-up

your iPad devices using the configuration
on pages 3 of this Quick Start Guide.
