How to Set Up a New iPad

If you buy the New iPad and want to configure for the first time, this tutorial will

show how begin.

Here's how to set up a new iPad:

1. Take the new iPad out of the box and remove all of the plastic protectors. This is

important. The iPad can get hot, and we don't want to leave that plastic on the

device while it's running!

2. Turn on the iPad by pressing and holding the power button, as shown below. You'll

know the iPad has started booting up when the Apple logo appears on the screen.

the top-right corner to continue, as shown below.

6. Now you'll need to decide whether or not to enable Location Services. We

recommend that you enable this feature. It allows applications and websites

to use information from cellular, wireless, and GPS networks to determine

your approximate location. You can always disable Location Services at a

later time. Select an option, and then click the blue Next button to

continue, as shown below.

9. If this is your first iPad, you'll want to select Set Up as New iPad. If

you've previously set up the iPad and had to erase it, you can restore it

from an iCloud or iTunes backup. Select an option and then click the

blue Next button to continue, as shown below.

10. Apple's iCloud service—which provides file storage, extra services, and the

ability to keep all of your iOS devices and computers connected is deeply

integrated in iOS. It's free to use. At this point, you can enter an existing

iCloud account, or create a new one, as shown below. (You can also skip

this step and create an account later.)

13. It's a good idea to back up your iPad. If you ever have to reset it, you can

simply restore the backup and have all of your apps, files, and settings

moved back to your iPad. You can store the backup on your computer, but

we recommend using iCloud to store your backup. It's free, and if

something happens to your computer, you'll still have your iPad backup on

iCloud. Select an option and then click the Next button, as shown below.

14. Here's a cool feature called Find My iPad. If you ever lose your iPad, you

can log in to the iCloud website to see your iPad's approximate location on a

map. Of course, for this feature to work, your iPad has to be powered on

and connected to a network. We still recommend enabling it, if only for the

coolness factor. Select an option and then click theNext button, as shown

below.

15. The iPad doesn't have Siri (yet), but the dictation feature is the next best

thing. Enable it, and you'll be able to speak to your iPad and have your

words transcribed into text. Just think, you could write the next Great

American Novel by speaking it to your iPad on the way to work! Select an

option and then click the Next button, as shown below.

17. It's a good idea to register your iPad with Apple, if only to have your device

on file for warranty purposes. That way, Apple will know that you own this

particular iPad and you can get it fixed if something happens to it. (Subject

to your warranty coverage, of course.) Select an option and then click

the Next button, as shown below.
