Setting Up iPad

Before you can use iPad, you must use iTunes to set it up. You can also register iPad and create an Apple ID (not available in some countries) if you don’t already have one.

Set up iPad:

1Download and install the latest version of iTunes from www.itunes.com/download.

2Connect iPad to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the cable that came with iPad.

3Follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to register iPad and sync iPad with music, video, and other content from your iTunes library, and with your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks on your computer.

In the Set Up Your iPad screen, select “Automatically sync contacts, calendars and bookmarks” to have those items sync automatically when you connect iPad to your computer.

Syncing with iTunes

Use iTunes to sync your music, videos, downloaded apps, and other iTunes library content from your computer. You can also sync your contacts, calendars, and your browser bookmarks. iTunes lets you choose the information and content that you want to sync with iPad. By default, iTunes syncs automatically whenever you connect iPad to your computer. When you sync, you can also transfer information you create or purchase on your iPad to your computer.
