Getting Started 2
Read this chapter to learn how to set up iPad, set up mail accounts, use iCloud, and more.
What you need
WARNING: To avoid injury, read all operating instructions in this guide and safety information in the
iPad Important Product Information Guide at support.apple.com/manuals/ipad before using iPad.
·
To use iPad, you need:
An Apple ID for some features, including iCloud, the App Store and iTunes Store, and Â
online purchases
An Internet connection (broadband is recommended) Â
To use iPad with your computer, you need:
A Mac or a PC with a USB 2.0 port and one of the following operating systems: Â
Mac OS X version 10.5.8 or later Â
Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later Â
iTunes 10.6 or later, available at Âwww.itunes.com/download
Setting up iPad
To set up iPad, turn it on and follow the Setup Assistant. The onscreen directions in Setup
Assistant step you through the setup process, including connecting to a Wi-Fi network, signing in
with or creating a free Apple ID, setting up iCloud, and turning on recommended features, such as
Location Services and Find My iPad.
During setup, you can copy your apps, settings, and content from another iPad by restoring from
an iCloud backup or from iTunes. See “Backing up iPad” on page 137.
Setting up mail and other accounts
iPad works with iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular Internet-based mail,
contacts, and calendar service providers.
If you don’t already have a mail account, you can set up a free iCloud account when you set up
iPad, or set one up later in Settings > iCloud. See “Using iCloud” on page 19.
Set up an iCloud account: Go to Settings > iCloud.
Set up another account: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
You can add contacts using an LDAP or CardDAV account, if your company or organization
supports it. See “Syncing contacts” on page 73.
For information about setting up a Microsoft Exchange account in a corporate environment, see
“Setting up Microsoft Exchange accounts” on page 130 .

Managing content on iPad
You can transfer information and les between iPad and your other iOS devices and computers,
using either iCloud or iTunes.
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
you make on one device are copied to the other when you sync. You can also use iTunes to
copy a le to iPad for use with an app, or to copy a document you’ve created on iPad to your
computer. See “Syncing with iTunes” on page 20.
You can use iCloud or iTunes, or both, depending on your needs. For example, you can use iCloud
Photo Stream to automatically push photos you take on iPad to your other devices, and use
iTunes to sync photo albums from your computer to iPad.
Note: Don’t sync items in the Info pane of iTunes (such as contacts, calendars, and notes) and
also use iCloud to keep that information up to date on your devices. Otherwise, you may see
duplicated data on iPad.
Using iCloud
iCloud stores your content, including music, photos, contacts, calendars, and supported documents.
Content stored in iCloud is pushed wirelessly to your other iOS devices and computers set up with
the same iCloud account.
iCloud is available on iOS 5 devices, on Macs running OS X Lion v10.7.2 or later, and on PCs with
the iCloud Control Panel for Windows (Windows Vista Service Pack 2 or Windows 7 required).
iCloud features include:
ÂiTunes in the Cloud—Download previous iTunes music and TV show purchases to iPad for free,
anytime you like.
ÂApps and Books—Download previous App Store and iBookstore purchases for free, anytime
you like.
ÂPhoto Stream—Photos you take on one device appear automatically on all your devices. See
“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
across all your devices.
ÂBackup—Back up iPad to iCloud automatically when connected to power and Wi-Fi. See
“Backing up with iCloud” on page 137.
ÂFind My iPad—Locate your iPad on a map, display a message, play a sound, lock the screen, or
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.
ÂiTunes Match—With an iTunes Match subscription, all your music, including music you’ve
imported from CDs or purchased somewhere other than iTunes, appears on all of your devices
and can be downloaded and played on demand. See “iTunes Match” on page 87.
With iCloud, you get a free mail account and 5 GB of storage for your mail, documents, and
backups. Your purchased music, apps, TV shows, and books, as well as your Photo Stream, don’t
count against your free space.

Charge the battery: The best way to charge the iPad battery is to connect iPad to a power outlet
using the included Dock Connector to USB Cable and 10W USB power adapter. When you connect
iPad to a USB 2.0 port on a Mac with the Dock Connector to USB Cable, iPad may charge slowly
while syncing.
Important: The iPad battery may drain instead of charge if iPad is connected to a PC, to a computer
that’s turned o or is in sleep or standby mode, to a USB hub, or to the USB port on a keyboard.
If your Mac or PC doesn’t provide enough power to charge iPad, a “Not Charging” message
appears in the status bar. To charge iPad, disconnect it from your computer and connect it to a
power outlet using the included Dock Connector to USB Cable and 10W USB power adapter.
Important: If iPad is very low on power, it may display one of the following images, indicating that
iPad needs to charge for up to twenty minutes before you can use it. If iPad is extremely low on
power, the display may be blank for up to two minutes before one of the low-battery images appears.

www.apple.com/batteries/ipad.html.
Replacing the battery
The iPad battery isn’t user replaceable; it can be replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service
Provider (AASP). Rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may
eventually need to be replaced. AASPs also recycle iPad batteries according to local laws and
regulations. For information, go to www.apple.com/batteries/replacements.html.
22 Chapter 2 Getting Started
Using and cleaning iPad
It’s important to nd a comfortable posture when using iPad, and to take frequent breaks. Use
your lap, or a table, case, or dock accessory, to support iPad during use.
Handle iPad with care, to maintain its appearance. If you’re concerned about scratching or
abrasion of the screen, you can use a case or a cover, sold separately.
To clean iPad, unplug all cables and turn o iPad (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the
red slider appears, then slide the onscreen slider). Use a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Avoid
getting moisture in openings. Don’t use window cleaners, household cleaners, aerosol sprays,
solvents, alcohol, ammonia, or abrasives to clean iPad. The iPad screen has an oleophobic coating;
simply wipe the screen with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove oil left by your hands. The ability of
this coating to repel oil will diminish over time with normal usage, and rubbing the screen with an
abrasive material will further diminish its eect and may scratch your screen.
For more information about handling iPad, see the iPad Important Product Information Guide at
support.apple.com/manuals/ipad.

The Bluetooth icon appears in the iPad status bar at the top of the screen:
 (white): Bluetooth is on and paired with a device.
 (gray): Bluetooth is on and paired with a device, but the device is out of range or turned o.
ÂNo Bluetooth icon: Bluetooth is turned o or not paired with a device.
Unpairing a Bluetooth device from iPad
If you pair iPad with one Bluetooth device and then want to use a dierent device of the same

Security features
Security features help protect the information on iPad from being accessed by others.
Passcodes and data protection
For security, you can set up a passcode that you must enter each time you turn on or wake up iPad.
Set a passcode: Go to Settings > General > Passcode Lock > Turn Passcode On. Enter a 4-digit
passcode, then enter it again to verify it. iPad will require you to enter the passcode to unlock it, or
to display the passcode lock settings.
Setting a passcode turns on data protection, which uses your passcode as the key for encrypting
mail messages and attachments stored on iPad. (Data protection may also be used by some apps
available from the App Store.) A notice at the bottom of the Passcode Lock screen in Settings
shows that data protection is enabled.
To increase security, turn o Simple Passcode (a four-digit number) and use a more robust
passcode that has a combination of numbers, letters, punctuation, and special characters. See
“Auto-Lock” on page 126.

About VoiceOver
VoiceOver describes aloud what appears onscreen, so you can use iPad without seeing it.
VoiceOver tells you about each element on the screen as you select it. When you select an
element, a black rectangle (the VoiceOver cursor) encloses it and VoiceOver speaks the name or
describes the item.
Touch the screen or drag your ngers to hear dierent items on the screen. When you select text,
VoiceOver reads the text. If you turn on Speak Hints, VoiceOver may tell you the name of the item
and provide instructions for you—for example, “double-tap to open.” To interact with items on the
screen, such as buttons and links, use the gestures described in “Learning VoiceOver gestures” on
page 110 .
107
When you go to a new screen, VoiceOver plays a sound and automatically selects and speaks
the rst element of the screen (typically, the item in the upper-left corner). VoiceOver also lets
you know when the display changes to landscape or portrait orientation, and when the screen is
locked or unlocked.
Note: VoiceOver speaks in the language specied in International settings, which may be
inuenced by the Region Format setting (Settings > General > International > Region Format).
VoiceOver is available in many languages, but not all.

Turn VoiceOver on or o: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver. You can also set
Triple-click Home to turn VoiceOver on or o. See “Triple-click Home” on page 116 .
Turn spoken hints on or o Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver. When Speak Hints
is turned on, VoiceOver may tell you the action of the item or provide
instructions for you—for example, “double-tap to open.” You can also
add Hints to the rotor, then swipe up or down to adjust. See “Using the
VoiceOver rotor control” on page 111.
Set the VoiceOver speaking rate Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver and drag the Speaking
Rate slider. You can also add Speech Rate to the rotor, then swipe up or

is read character-by-character. Voiceover rst speaks the character, then its
phonetic equivalent—for example, “f” and then “foxtrot.”
Use pitch change Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Use Pitch Change.
VoiceOver uses a higher pitch when entering a letter, and a lower pitch
when deleting a letter. VoiceOver also uses a higher pitch when speaking

Learning VoiceOver gestures
When VoiceOver is turned on, the standard touchscreen gestures have dierent eects. These and
some additional gestures let you move around the screen and control individual elements when
they’re selected. VoiceOver gestures include two- and three-nger gestures to tap or ick. For best
results when using two- and three-nger gestures, relax and let your ngers touch the screen with
some space between them.
You can use standard gestures when VoiceOver is turned on, by double-tapping and holding your
nger on the screen. A series of tones indicates that normal gestures are in force. They remain in
eect until you lift your nger. Then VoiceOver gestures resume.
You can use dierent techniques to enter VoiceOver gestures. For example, you can enter a
two-nger tap using two ngers from one hand, or one nger from each hand. You can also use
your thumbs. Many nd the “split-tap” gesture especially eective: instead of selecting an item
and double-tapping, you can touch and hold an item with one nger, then tap the screen with
another nger. Try dierent techniques to discover which works best for you.
If your gestures don’t work, try quicker movements, especially for double-tapping and icking
gestures. To ick, try quickly brushing the screen with your nger or ngers. When VoiceOver is
turned on, the VoiceOver Practice button appears, which gives you a chance to practice VoiceOver
gestures before proceeding.
Practice gestures: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver, then tap VoiceOver Practice.

Using the VoiceOver rotor control
The rotor control is a virtual dial that you can use to change the results of up and down ick
gestures when VoiceOver is turned on.
Operate the rotor: Rotate two ngers on the iPad screen around a point between them.
Change the options included in the rotor: Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver >
Rotor and select the options you want to be available using the rotor.
The eect of the rotor depends on what you’re doing. When you read text in an email, you can use
the rotor to switch between hearing text spoken word-by-word, character-by-character, or line-
by-line when you ick up or down. When you browse a webpage, you can use the rotor setting to
hear all the text (either word-by-word or character-by-character), or to jump from one element to
another of a certain type, such as headers or links.

Entering and editing text with VoiceOver
When you select a text eld with VoiceOver, you can use the onscreen keyboard or an external
keyboard connected to iPad to enter text. You can use the editing features of iPad to cut, copy, or
paste in the text eld.
There are two ways to enter text in VoiceOver—standard typing and touch typing. With standard
typing, you select a key, then double-tap the screen to enter the character. With touch typing, you
touch to select a key and the character is entered automatically when you lift your nger. Touch
typing can be quicker, but may require more practice than standard typing.
VoiceOver also lets you use the editing features of iPad to cut, copy, or paste in a text eld.
Enter text: Select an editable text eld, double-tap to display the insertion point and the
onscreen keyboard, and type characters.
ÂStandard typing: Select a key on the keyboard by icking left or right, then double-tap to enter
the character. Or move you nger around the keyboard to select a key and, while continuing
to touch the key with one nger, tap the screen with another nger. VoiceOver speaks the key
when it’s selected, and again when the character is entered.
ÂTouch typing: Touch a key on the keyboard to select it, then lift your nger to enter the
character. If you touch the wrong key, move your nger on the keyboard until you select the
key you want. VoiceOver speaks the character for each key as you touch it, but doesn’t enter a
character until you lift your nger.
Note: Touch typing works only for the keys that enter text. Use standard typing for other keys
such as Shift, Delete, and Return.
Move the insertion point: Flick up or down to move the insertion point forward or backward
in the text. Use the rotor to choose whether you want to move the insertion point by character,
by word, or by line. VoiceOver makes a sound when the insertion point moves, and speaks the
character, word, or line that the insertion point moves across.
When moving forward by words, the insertion point is placed at the end of each word, before
the space or punctuation that follows. When moving backward, the insertion point is placed
at the end of the preceding word, before the space or punctuation that follows it. To move the
insertion point past the punctuation at the end of a word or sentence, use the rotor to switch
back to character mode. When moving the insertion point by line, VoiceOver speaks each line as
you move across it. When moving forward, the insertion point is placed at the beginning of the
next line (except when you reach the last line of a paragraph, when the insertion point is moved
to the end of the line just spoken). When moving backward, the insertion point is placed at the
beginning of the line that’s spoken.
Choose standard or touch typing With VoiceOver turned on and a key selected on the keyboard, use the
rotor to select Typing Mode, then ick up or down.
Delete a character Select , then double-tap or split-tap. You must do this even when touch
typing. To delete multiple characters, touch and hold the Delete key, then
tap the screen with another nger once for each character you want to
delete. VoiceOver speaks the character as it’s deleted. If Use Pitch Change is
turned on, VoiceOver speaks deleted characters in a lower pitch.
Select text Set the rotor to Edit, ick up or down to choose Select or Select All, then
double-tap. If you chose Select, the word closest to the insertion point is
selected when you double-tap. If you chose Select All, the entire text is
selected. Pinch apart or together to increase or decrease the selection.
Cut, copy, or paste Make sure the rotor is set to edit. With text selected, ick up or down to
choose Cut, Copy, or Paste, then double-tap.

Using a braille display with VoiceOver
You can use a refreshable Bluetooth braille display to read VoiceOver output in braille, and you
can use a braille display with input keys and other controls to control iPad when VoiceOver
is turned on. iPad works with many of the most popular wireless braille displays. For a list of
supported braille displays, go to www.apple.com/accessibility/iphone/braille-display.html.
Set up a braille display: Turn on the display, then go to Settings > General > Bluetooth and
turn on Bluetooth. Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille and choose
the display.
Turn contracted braille on or o Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille.
Turn eight-dot braille on or o Go to Settings > General > Accessibility > VoiceOver > Braille.
For information about common braille commands for VoiceOver navigation, and for information
specic to certain displays, go to support.apple.com/kb/HT4400.
The braille display uses the language that’s set for Voice Control. This is normally the language
that’s set for iPad in Settings > International > Language. You can use the VoiceOver language
setting to set a dierent language for VoiceOver and braille displays.
Set the language for VoiceOver: Go to Settings > General > International > Voice Control, then
choose the language.
If you change the language for iPad, you may need to reset the language for VoiceOver and your
braille display.
You can set the leftmost or rightmost cell of your braille display to provide system status and
other information:

Appendix
iPad in the enterprise
With support for secure access to corporate networks, directories, and Microsoft Exchange,
iPad is ready to go to work. For detailed information about using iPad in business, go to
www.apple.com/ipad/business.
Using conguration proles
If you’re in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and other items on
iPad by installing a conguration prole. Conguration proles let your administrator set up your
iPad to use the information systems at your company, school, or organization. For example, a
conguration prole might set up your iPad to access the Microsoft Exchange servers at work, so
iPad can access your Exchange email, calendars, and contacts.
A conguration prole can congure many dierent settings on iPad. For example, a conguration
prole can set up your Microsoft Exchange account, VPN account, and certicates for secure
access to your company’s network and information. A conguration prole can also turn on
Passcode Lock, which requires you to create and enter a passcode in order to use iPad.
Your administrator may distribute conguration proles by email, by putting them on a secure
webpage, or by installing them directly on iPad for you. Your administrator may have you install a
prole that ties your iPad to a mobile device management server, which allows your administrator
to congure your settings remotely.
Install conguration proles: On iPad, open the email message or download the conguration
proles from the website your administrator provides. When you open the conguration prole,
installation begins.
Important: You may be asked whether a conguration prole is trusted. If in doubt, ask your
administrator before installing the conguration prole.
You can’t change the settings in a conguration prole. If you want to change settings, you must
rst remove the conguration prole, or install a new conguration prole with the new settings.
Remove a conguration prole: Go to Settings > General > Prole, then select the conguration
prole and tap Remove.
Removing a conguration prole deletes the settings and all other information installed by
the prole.
Setting up Microsoft Exchange accounts
Microsoft Exchange provides email, contact, tasks, and calendar information that you can
automatically sync wirelessly to iPad. You can set up an Exchange account directly on iPad.
Set up an Exchange account on iPad: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Tap Add
Account, then tap Microsoft Exchange.
Your service provider or administrator can provide the account settings you need.

VPN access
VPN (virtual private network) provides secure access over the Internet to private networks, such as
the network at your company or school. Use Network settings on iPad to congure and turn on
VPN. Ask your administrator what settings you should use.
VPN can also be set up automatically by a conguration prole. When VPN is set up by a
conguration prole, iPad may turn VPN on automatically whenever it’s needed. For more
information, contact your administrator.
LDAP and CardDAV accounts
When you set up an LDAP account, you can view and search for contacts on your company or
organization’s LDAP server. The server appears as a new group in Contacts. Because LDAP contacts
aren’t downloaded to iPad, you must have an Internet connection to view them. Check with your
administrator for account settings and other requirements (such as VPN).
When you set up a CardDAV account, your account contacts are synced with iPad over the air. You
may also be able to search for contacts on your company or organization’s CardDAV server.
Set up an LDAP or CardDAV account: Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, then tap Add
Account. Tap Other.
Your service provider or administrator can provide the account settings you need.
