Turning On and Setting Up the iPad
Unless your iPad is brand-spanking new and fresh out of the box, chances are that you’ve already performed the following steps. If you choose to use your iPad computer-free, these steps make up the entire setup process.
Apple has taken the time to partially charge your iPad, so you can set it up right away in one of two ways. We strongly encourage you to use the first method, automatic setup, because it's so easy. However, it does require you to have another iOS 11 or later device already set up and running with the same Apple ID.
If you don’t have another device using iOS 11 or later, never fear! We also show you how to set up your iPad manually. In fact, you can skip straight down to the section called “Manual setup” to get started.
Automatic setup
Automatic setup enables you to transfer your settings and Apple ID-related data from one iPhone or iPad running iOS 11 or later, including iPadOS, to your iPad. As just mentioned, the device you're transferring from must be running the same Apple ID that you want to use on your new iPad. Depending on the choices you make during the setup process, some of these steps may be different for you.
1 Begin the setup process:Press and hold down the sleep/wake button on the upper-right edge. You see the Apple logo, followed by the word hello and similar greetings in a bunch of other languages.When you see a Press Home to Open message (in English or another language), do so. iPad Pro models with Face ID will say Swipe Up to Open. The language screen appears.Tap to choose your language, followed by your country or region preferences. The Quick Start screen appears, along with a blue Set Up Manually button. Resist the urge to tap that one!
2 Pair the two devices:Bring your other iOS or iPadOS device close to your iPad. And by close, we mean a couple of inches away. Make sure this other device is unlocked, and look for the Set Up New iPad pop-up notification. The automatic setup magic has begun! The pairing process uses the camera on your existing device to view shifting dots on your new device described in the next step. This security procedure makes it difficult for someone to hijack the pairing process and steal your Apple ID and other data.On the second device, tap the gray Continue button. Your second device displays the instruction Hold Your New iPad Up to the Camera, while the iPad gets a cool screen with a rotating 3D blob of dots. (The dots are a code, similar to a QR code, generated by your iPad.)Hold your other device over the iPad you’re setting up until the camera is positioned over the blob of dots, as shown in Figure 2-1. After the camera captures the blob of dots, your other device will say Finish on New iPad, while your new iPad asks you to Enter Passcode of Your Other Device.On your new iPad, enter the passcode from your other device. This passcode is now the one for your iPad, too. (You can change it later, as detailed in Chapter 15.) As soon as you enter the passcode successfully, your iPad automatically displays the Touch ID screen (for iPads with Touch ID) or the Face ID screen (for iPad Pro models with Face ID).FIGURE 2-1: Maneuvering an iPad to pair with an existing iOS or iPadOS device for automatic setup.
3 Set up Touch ID or Face ID:To set up Touch ID on iPad models that support Touch ID:Tap Continue.Tap the Home button each time you're asked. With each touch, sensors comprehensively map your fingerprint.When asked, tap Continue to adjust your grip, and continue the process until the Complete screen appears.To set up Face ID on iPad Pro models that support Face ID:Tap Continue. The front camera activates.When asked, turn your head in different directions until your entire face is scanned.After completing one scan, complete a second scan when asked.
4 On the Complete screen, tap Continue.The screen displays Setting Up Your Apple ID while your other device and your iPad exchange information, including Contacts, Calendar, and Keychain passwords. Your other device also copies over all your Wi-Fi settings, even passwords, so your iPad automatically joins your networks. This process could take a few minutes. When it's finished, the Apps & Data screen appears.
5 Choose how to set up your iPad by tapping one of the options and following the on-screen prompts.Your four choices are Restore from iCloud Backup, Restore from iTunes Backup, Move Data from Android, and Don’t Transfer Apps & Data. When the process is complete, the Terms and Conditions screen appears.
6 Tap Agree to accept the terms and conditions, and then tap Agree again on the pop-up dialog that appears.When you tap Agree the second time, the Transfer Settings from your Other iPad screen appears. If you were using an iPhone, it would be the Transfer Settings from Your iPhone screen. They both do the same things, including allowing Siri to use your personal information when handling your requests; allowing apps and Maps to use Location Services, and sharing your analytics and diagnostics with Apple.
7 Tap Continue.The Apple Pay screen appears.
8 Confirm or set up Apple Pay.If Apple Pay is set up on your other iOS or iPadOS device, confirm each credit card you've set up. Otherwise, you can now add credit cards one at a time or set up Apple Pay later by tapping the Set Up Later in Settings button. (Learn more about Apple Pay in Chapter 15.)
9 Tap Continue.If you already have an Apple Card set up on your other iOS or iPadOS device, the Get Daily Cash Every Time screen appears.
10 If you have an Apple Card, tap Set as Preferred Card and follow the on-screen instructions.You can make your Apple Card the default credit card for Apple Pay transactions. You can also set up Apple Pay cash on your iPad.
11 Decide whether or not to share your analytic data with developers.In Step 6, you chose whether or not to share analytics data with Apple. Now you’re asked if you want to share analytics with developers. If you agree to share with developers, you’re not just trusting Apple; you’re trusting all those developers, too. When we set up our devices, we often skip this permission.
12 Tap Continue to cycle through a series of screens highlighting new features of iPadOS specific to your iPad model.At the end, the Get Started screen appears.
13 Tap Get Started.You are taken to the Home screen! That’s it! You’re now ready to use your iPad.
Manual setup
If you’ve already gone through the automatic setup process, skip this section. If you want to know how to manually set up your iPad, however, you’re in the right place. In the interest of space, we won’t repeat details for instructions that are identical to what we explained in the “Automatic setup” section. Also, depending on the choices you make during the setup process, some of these steps may be different:
1 Begin the setup process:Press and hold down the sleep/wake button on the upper-right edge. You see the Apple logo, followed by the word hello and similar greetings in a bunch of other languages.When you see a Press Home to Open message (in English or another languages), do so. The language screen appears.Tap to choose your language, followed by your country or region preferences. The Quick Start screen appears, along with a blue Set Up Manually button.
2 Tap the Set Up Manually button.
3 Tap to choose an available Wi-Fi network, provide a password (if necessary), and then tap the blue Join button.Certain iPad models may allow you to choose a cellular network, if
