I live in the mountains, but there is a good Apple store about an hour away. Today I bought an iPad and can't figure out how to work it. Oh, well; I suppose I will find some help here.

1st download iTunes.
2nd make an account.
3rd connect your iPad to the computer using the provided USB cable.
4th ask away.

And you could read our "absolute beginners" link in my sig to get a head start. Welcome!

Great first line Georges, has a faint echo of Hemmingway

So stiff upper lip and steel yourself. If nonagenarians and two year olds can master the the iPad, so can you!

Give the manual a cursory glance then play with it. You'll have fun, trust me.......

Going to bookmark that link, NumbLock. Excellent article.

Here is a link to the iPad Users Guide. It's in pdf format. You can download the iBooks app later and then download the iBook version for free, if you want a more convenient way to read it on the iPad.

Don't use above 10k feet!!

I have 12 years left until that time. I suppose I will have it licked by then!
