A new iPad comes with Apple’s software already installed or available for download from the App Store. Plus you can get additional apps from the App Store from other providers. But having apps on your iPad doesn’t mean that it’s ready to use for business yet – you need to set up both the iPad and some apps to work where you do.

For example, you need to set up the Wi-Fi connections so that your iPad is connected to your home and work networks, as well as to networks you might use elsewhere, such as at your favorite cafe. You also need to set up your email accounts so that you can access your email from your iPad. Ditto with contacts, calendars, and more.

This chapter explains the setup steps you need to take to get your iPad ready for business. You discover why you might want to have separate Apple and iCloud IDs rather than use the same ID for both, and how to set up those IDs in the iPad to connect to Apple's various services. You also learn about the two backup methods that Apple provides for the iPad's contents. Finally, you find out how to set up the accounts you use to access email, calendars, and contacts, as well as how to connect to Wi-Fi networks so that your iPad is connected to the world you work in.
