I got my IPAD last year for my birthday. I love it but now I have all kinds of questions.

Can I get a virus if I watch porn on it?
How do I get my music from my IPOD onto my IPAD so I have it on both?
Is the IPAD really secure for banking, looking at my medical information etc?
How come I can play yahoo games on it I miss playing online cards with people? Is there other options?

I need to explore the power of this wonder fun tablet.

1. There are no known viruses for the iPad. Whilst you won't get an iPad virus, I think the porn itself is much worse.
2. You get your music onto the iPad the same way you got it onto your iPod. Use iTunes to sync your music from your PC.
3. iPads are as secure as PCs for banking. most banks have encryption on their websites for Internet banking and any apps they issue for iOS are just as secure, if not more so.
4. I'm not familiar with yahoo games, but if it is like other online games, it uses flash, which is not supported on the iPad. There are plenty of iOS games that link up to friends via facebook, etc. for virtual gaming. Check the app store for those.

You've had an iPad for a year and are just getting around to figuring out how to safely watch porn on it? Just kidding.

No. 3: Use a secure connection and you'll be fine.
