Apple iPad For iOS 4.3 - Manual (Page 29)

Photos Pane
You can sync photos and videos with iPhoto 6.0.6 or later, or Aperture 3.0.2 or later
on a Mac; or with Adobe Photoshop Elements 8.0 or later on a PC. You can also sync
photos and videos in any folder on your computer that contains images or videos.
Preventing Automatic Syncing
You can prevent iPad from syncing automatically when you connect iPad to a
different computer.
Prevent automatic syncing for all iPads: In iTunes choose iTunes > Preferences (on a
Mac) or Edit > Preferences (on a PC), click Devices, then select “Prevent iPods, iPhones,
and iPads from syncing automatically.”
If this checkbox is selected, iPad won’t sync automatically, even if “Open iTunes when
this iPad is connected” is selected in the Summary pane.
Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings: Open iTunes,
connect iPad to your computer, then press and hold Command-Option (on a Mac) or
Shift-Control (on a PC) until iPad appears in the sidebar.
Sync manually: In iTunes, select iPad in the sidebar, then click Sync in the lower-right
corner of the window. Or, if you’ve changed any sync settings, click Apply.
Connecting to the Internet
iPad can join AirPort and other Wi-Fi networks at home, at work, or at Wi-Fi hotspots
around the world. When joined to a Wi-Fi network that’s connected to the Internet,
iPad connects to the Internet automatically whenever you use Mail, Safari, YouTube,
the App Store, or the iTunes Store. iPad connects to the Internet using a Wi-Fi network.
iPad Wi-Fi + 3G can also connect to the Internet using a cellular data network. Data
service is sold separately.
Joining a Wi-Fi Network
Use Wi-Fi settings to turn on Wi-Fi and join Wi-Fi networks.
Turn on Wi-Fi: Choose Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on.
Join a Wi-Fi network: Choose Settings > Wi-Fi, wait a moment as iPad detects
networks in range, then select a network (fees may apply to join some Wi-Fi networks).
If necessary, enter a password and tap Join (networks that require a password appear
with a lock icon).
Once you join a Wi-Fi network, iPad automatically connects to it whenever the network
is in range. If more than one previously used network is in range, iPad joins the one
last used.
When iPad has a Wi-Fi connection, the Wi-Fi icon in the status bar shows the
connection strength. The more bars you see, the stronger the connection.
For information about configuring Wi-Fi settings, see “Wi-Fi” on page 152.
