Has anyone come across a owners manual explaining the new software yet.

I am looking for a manual for my mother who has just got an iPad2 and will be updating to IOS5 as soon as it becomes available (?). Does anyone know of a good publication which will take someone with NO computing experience or understanding, through her early days with the iPad?

Try the free iPad User Manual for iOS5 (or the earlier version of the operating system, if that's what you have). It's written with the non-technical person in mind. It's in the iBooks store. iOS5 is available right now - but be sure you've upgraded your PC or Mac to the latest version of iTunes.

Where can you get it as my apple website would suggest otherwise?

I just got it. Do a search for "iOS for iPad" in the iBook store.

I got both the iPad and iPhone User Guide for iOS 5. Surprisingly, even though it is one OS, there are many differences between the two devices. Things like weather, stocks and many other features are only on the iPhone.

Isn't it interesting how the answer about setting up an ipad or modem, come to that, is always online; the very place you need the manual to get you to?

The exact title to search in iBooks is iPad User Guide For iOS5
I imagine it's the same for iPhone User Guide For iOS5

The user guide for the iPad1 for IOS 5 is shown in 'Support' on the Apple site, (not enough posts for links), but unfortunately it's actually the earlier one for IOS 4.3.

They changed the name of the link but not its content! :mad:

Please see a review in the Apple section of TheNextWeb.com called A complete guide to Apple's iOS 5 with iCloud....


It is an article (70 pages to print) by Matthew Panzarino dated 10-12-2011

Just checked and the correct IOS5 version is now up.
