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.
