Info Pane

The Info pane lets you configure the sync settings for your contacts, calendars, email accounts, and web browser.

ÂÂ Contacts

You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Yahoo! Address Book, and Google Contacts on a Mac, or with Yahoo! Address Book, Google Contacts, Windows Address Book (Microsoft Outlook Express), Windows Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one application at a time.)

If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve set up syncing.

ÂÂ Calendars

You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal on a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync calendars with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one application at a time.)

ÂÂ Mail Accounts

You can sync email account settings from Mail on a Mac, and from Microsoft Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 or Microsoft Outlook Express on a PC. Account settings are only transferred from your computer to iPad. Changes you make to an email account on iPad don’t affect the account on your computer.

Note: The password for your Yahoo! email account isn’t saved on your computer, so it can’t be synced and must be entered on iPad. In Settings, choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” tap your Yahoo! account, and enter the password.
