APPLE ANNOUNCED THE ORIGINAL iPad on January 27, 2010, and the technology world hasnt been the same since. Customers rushed to buy the tablet, snapping up more than 300,000 the day it went on sale. Competitors rushed to copy it, with Microsoft, Google, Samsung, Motorola, Amazon, and others creating their own variations on the app-friendly touchscreen device.
In the fall of 2012, Apple released the fourth generation of the iPad and the first version of its smaller sidekick, the iPad Mini. Building on its success with the original iPad, the iPad 2, and the third-gen iPad with Retina display, this latest pair of iPads adds zippier WiFi performance, FaceTime HD cameras for videochats, and the new Lightning connector for charging and syncing.
Apple has now sold more than 100 million iPads. So why has its tablet proven so popular, even as competitors stampede to put their own interpretations in stores? One theory: Its a mobile world, and a thin Internet-connected device that can expertly handle communications, entertainment, and school/business tasksand look extremely stylish to bootis going to be a winner.
You can add to that Apples new emphasis on the post-PC world, where you dont have to connect your iPad to your computer to set it up, fill it up, or back it up. The arrival of Apples iCloud service in 2011 means that your iPad can be your primary window to the Internet for work, play, and cat videosno heavy, bulky laptop needed, because youre living in an airy ecosystem where all your stuff is safely online, Up There if you need it.
And thanks to the 275,000 third-party tablet-specific apps already available, the iPad can move beyond being just a platter that serves up media and Web content. In fact, it can pretty much be whatever you want it to be.
Come to think of it, thats probably why its so popular.
The small card that Apple includes with each iPad is enough to get your tablet up and running, charged, and ready to frolic on the Web. But you probably want to know more about all the great things it can do and where to find its coolest features. This book gives you more iPad info than that wee card. Its neatly organized by task and topic, and it has nice big color pictures.
Throughout this book, and throughout the Missing Manual series, youll find sentences like this one: Tap HomeSettingGeneraliTunes Wi-Fi SyncSync Now. Thats shorthand for a longer series of instructions that go something like this: From the iPads Home screen, tap the Settings icon to go the Settings screen. On the Settings screen, tap iTunes Wi-Fi Sync and then, on the screen that appears, press the Sync Now button. Our shorthand system keep things more snappy than these long, drawn-out instructions.
Youll learn how to interact with your iPad using its touchscreen in , but you need to be familiar with a few desktop computer terms and concepts, too, so you can use iTunes, the iPads media manager:
Clicking . To click means to point the arrow cursor at something on the screen and then to press and release the button on the mouse (or laptop trackpad). To
