Setting Up Your iPad
Before you can use your iPad, there are some simple steps that need to be completed. You
will require
• a computer with internet access
• an iPad
• the supplied iTunes gift cards.
Outlined below are the steps to access iTunes and connect your iPad:
1. Step-by-step downloading and installing iTunes (p. 2)
2. Redeeming your iTunes gift cards (p.3)
(includes Information about creating an iTunes store account)
3. Connecting your iPad to your PC or Mac for the first time (p.6)
4. Installing applications on to your iPad (p.8)
(includes Installing DEECD selected applications on to your iPad)
1. Step-by-step downloading and installing iTunes
To enable you to manage your iPad and download content to such as applications (apps),
music and podcasts, you will need a copy of iTunes installed on your computer.
Important: To install iTunes and to create an iTunes store account, you will need to agree to
a number of terms and conditions. It is important that you read these terms and conditions
carefully. One of the terms and conditions states that you need to the over the age of 13 to
create an iTunes store account. It is therefore assumed that a parent or guardian, or a
student under the supervision of a parent, guardian or teacher, will complete the iTunes
download steps.
Answer: That’s okay. Your school has a computer that can be used to complete all the
necessary steps. Simply contact your school to arrange a time to work with a staff
member to setup your iPad.
