ÂiCloud stores content such as music, photos, and more, and wirelessly pushes it to your other
iOS devices and computers, keeping everything up to date. See “Using iCloud,” below.
ÂiTunes syncs music, video, photos, and more between your computer and iPad. Changes

also use iCloud to keep that information up to date on your devices. Otherwise, you may see
duplicated data on iPad.

Content stored in iCloud is pushed wirelessly to your other iOS devices and computers set up with
the same iCloud account.

“Photo Stream” on page 54.
ÂDocuments in the Cloud—For iCloud-enabled apps, keep documents and app data up to date
across all your devices.
ÂMail, Contacts, Calendars—Keep your mail contacts, calendars, notes, and reminders up to date

remotely wipe the data. See “Find My iPad” on page 38.
ÂFind My Friends—Keep track of your family and friends (when connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular
network) using the Find My Friends app. Download the free app from the App Store.
