How do you start the thing (right out of box)

I received an iPad 2 Wi-Fi for Christmas.  There are absolutely no set-up instructions!  I tried the on-line support but have not fpound any "Initial Start-up Info"...you know, like the quick set-up cards you get with a new computer.  All I get is an iTunes symbol and a USB cord.  I've seen others post the same question, but no answer.  Can someone provide me with intial set-up info?  Thanks! - Karen8962

  • How do you start the hardware test on an imac with bluetooth keyboard

    How do you start the apple hardware test on an imac with a bluetooth keyboard as the instructions is to press the D key whilst restarting? And of course the imac cant see the keyboard whilst booting up as the bluetooth connection has yet to be established

    Have you tried following the directions for running it from the DVD? The instructions are on the Hardware Test link.If you are correct and it cannot due to the wireless keyboard not making a connection you will need to borrow a wired USB keyboard.

    how can you start the tag config editor from a vi or when labview starts?

    Hi,
    There is a VI called "dsc_TagEditorLauncher.vi" under "C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.1\project\lvdsc" folder that can be used to launch the TCE programmatically. I hope this helps.

  • HT5248 How do you start the dictate feature?

    After the update iWork still looks the same and search Help did not bring anything up. So how to you start the dictate feature to have your speech to text?

    Once you upgrade to ML, you go to System Preferences and enable it. Then you select your shortcut for turning it on and off. The default is a double-tap on the fn key.

    You can't.  If you do not know the volume passcode, your only option is to connect the iPod to your iTunes library and restore it to factory settings.

  • How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???

    How do you use the Multiple Item Information dialog box ???
    Where are the instructions on how the information in the Multiple Item Information dialog box equates to ...
    1. The way iTunes sorts tracks and albums
    2. The reason to select a leading check box
    3. Why there are Option selections (Yes /No) and leading check boxes.
    4. Why some changes remain in the track info, but do not "take effect" in iTunes (Part of a compilation is an example)
    Looked in Help, Support, went to the local Genius bar for an hour, even arrainged a call from apple support ...
    Thanks

    As Christopher says, it's a compilation. Different tracks are by different artists.
    Setting the *Album Artist* field to *Various Artists* and setting *Part of a compilation* to Yes should be all that is required. Depending on your *Group compilations when browsing* setting ( I recommend On ) either should suffice but I suggest doing both.
    Based on your commentary, I selected all the "O Brother" tracks, and checked the boxes for everything line that was blank in the Info and the Sort panes. Only exceptions were the album name and the disc number 1 of 1 and the artwork. I blanked and checked anything else.
    That's not what I meant. When you select multiple tracks, only those values which +are already common+ to all tracks are displayed. Typically these will include Artist, though not with compilation albums, Album Artist, Album, No. of Tracks, Genre plus various sort fields. A blank value may indicate that different tracks have different values or it may be that the value is blank for all tracks. For the drop down values on the Options tab the value shown may not reflect the information in every tag. If values you expect to be common, such as Album Artist or the Album title are not displayed you can simply type these in and click OK. This will often be enough to group the album.
    If you place a checkmark against the blank boxes and apply changes then you will clear those fields so you should only do this if that is the effect you want. Putting a checkmark next to an empty (representing different values) *Track No.* box, for example, will just clear the all the track numbers which is very rarely useful.
    Adding then removing extra text is for a specific problem where despite all common values being identical across the tracks of the album iTunes seems to "remember" that it should see two albums. A typical example would be when an album originally listed as *Album CD1* & *Album CD2* is given disc numbers X of Y and then has the Album name changed to Album. I've seen iTunes merge all but one track into the new album, but insist on listing one remaining track separately, despite both albums having the same title. In this case I've found overtyping the album title again has no effect whereas changing it to AlbumX and then back to Album does what I was trying to achieve in the first place.
    Don't forget that even properly organsied albums may still break up if you don't chose an album-friendly view. Sorting on the track name or track number columns can be useful in some circumstances but in general I revert to Album by Artist when browsing through my library.

  • How do you start the lightroom app on an ipad offline

    I have a Mac with Lightroom 5.6 and a new iPad mini 3 with the current lightroom app. I have synced three test catalogues and enabled offline editing for one so I can review photos and share them on the iPad offline. However the Lightroom app wants me to log in before it starts which I cannot do offline. I have scoured the web. Am I missing something obvious here? How do I start the app offline?

    One odd thing is that you say you have synced 3 catalogues. You can only sync one. Do you mean collections?
    As for signing in, initially you will have to be online, either through a SIM card or on a network, because you have to point the app to your account and let it sync photos. After then, when you're offline you don't need to sign in start using the app. You're not signing out, are you?

    How well do you know your way around Mac OS?
    you are going to need to boot into Recovery and reinstall the system.
    they should already be using TimeMachine at a minimum for backups
    If you need to erase the system drive AND don't have backups, then yes you could lose files.
    Also might want to shop for some drives to help with this /
    Install OS X to another external drive rather than on the laptop's so you can boot and work at backups and reinstall and repairs.
    Install or Reinstall Mavericks or Mountain Lion from Scratch
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because
    the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    OS X Mavericks- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Erase and reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Erase and reinstall Mac OS X
    About TimeMachine backups and Recovery Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427
    http://www.apple.com/osx/recovery/
    OS X Lion and later let you:
    Start from OS X Recovery using your Time Machine backup disk. With OS X v10.7.3 and later, Time Machine backs up the Recovery System on your Mac to your backup drive as well. This lets you use your Time Machine drive to start up your Mac if needed.     OS X Recovery:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4718
    OS X Internet Recovery
    Mac models introduced after public availability of OS X Lion include the ability to start up directly from an Internet-based version of the OS X Recovery system. OS X automatically uses this feature when the Recovery System on the hard disk isn't available (such as when your hard disk encounters an issue, or when your hard disk has been replaced or erased). OS X Internet Recovery lets you start your Mac directly from Apple's servers. Starting up from this system performs a quick test of your memory and hard drive to check for hardware issues.
    OS X Internet Recovery presents a limited interface at first, with only the ability to select your preferred Wi-Fi network and, if needed, entering a passphrase. Next, OS X Internet Recovery downloads and starts from a Recovery System image. From there, you are offered the same utilities and options as a local Recovery System.
    Requirements for reinstalling OS X using Recovery
    Reinstalling OS X using OS X Recovery requires broadband access to the Internet via Wi-Fi or an Ethernet connection. OS X is downloaded over the Internet from Apple when OS X Recovery is used for reinstallation
    If you use Internet Recovery to reinstall OS X, it installs the version of OS X that originally came with your computer. After installation is finished, use the Mac App Store to install related updates or later versions of OS X that you have previously purchased.
    What to do if the installer warns that no Recovery System can be created
    Some disk partition configurations may result in the OS X installer reporting that it could not create a Recovery System. In these situations, even if you are permitted to continue the install, you may want to quit the installation and create an external, bootable OS X hard drive with a Recovery System, first. You can continue your OS X upgrade on your computer's startup drive after creating an external Recovery System.
    Your storage device must have at least 13 GB available (after formatting) to install OS X Lion or later and a Recovery partition.
    These steps erase and reformat the storage device. This article instructs you on setting up a storage device to use the GUID partition scheme and the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format, which are required to install OS X and a Recovery partition on your external storage device. You should back up any important files that are on the device to a different drive.
    This procedure installs a version of OS X that is compatible with the Mac it was created with. Using this OS X system with a different Mac model may produce unpredictable results.
    Your computer's serial number is sent to Apple as part of this process to help authenticate your request to download and install OS X Lion.

  • How do you start the Brochure "getting started" piece?

    I'm sure it's obvious to the folks that use this software how to use this download, but can't see anything that indicates how.
    Yes, I downloaded the files and they went into my download folder on my MacPro, I then decided to move them to another more convenient to find folder.  This is what the unzipped  contents of the folder look like:
    The contents of the "read me" file look like this:
    Opening the folder in Finder does nothing more than display the contents as shown as above.
    There are no other clues, that I can find, on how to start the Getting started tutorial.
    Ken

    Hello Ken,
    To get started, just start watching the first video in the series on the same page you grabbed the file download from.  As you progress through the content, the presenter will let you know when you need to bring in the various sample files you downloaded.
    Please let me know if I did not understand your question correctly.
    Thank you,

  • How do you start the Brush tool from a last anchor point?

    Hi there,
    I'm somewhat almost a complete newb to Illustrator, and would really appreciate some help!
    Is there any possible way to continue a brush stroke from your last brush stroke's end point (the anchor point)? For instance, if I drew half of a circle with one brush stroke, and wanted to cleanly complete the circle by having the next brush stroke start from the point where I last finished, how would I do that?
    Any help much appreciated! Thanks!

    What tool did you use to draw? Since you said brushstroke will assume you used the paintbrush tool.
    Double click on paintbrush tool for the options. Change your settings to mine, especially the bottom 2 checkmarks.

  • How do you change the font in multiple text boxes?

    I just started using illustrator and I can't figure this one out.  Maybe someone can point me in the right direction.
    I made a bunch of text boxes using the type tool.  Is there a way I can link the boxes and easily change the font?
    Thanks,
    Justin

    You select the text frames holding dow the shift keys then go to Type>Thread text, I would select the text frames in the order you wan them threaded.
    Then once threaded you click the text tool inside of one of the text strings and do a command A to select all the text and then choose any method of changing the font such as Character Panel, Control Panel or Type>Font menu item.
    you can also look into creating Paragraph styles as well.

  • How do you tilt the writing in your text box or tilt a picture for Pages08?

    Some of the templates that are provided for Pages 08' have tilted/slanted text and pictures, but I can't seem to figure out how to do it myself. Is it possible?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    If you want the line of text at an angle it must be in a text box. Select the box and while holding ⌘ drag one corner of the box. or you can rotate it in the Metrics Inspector.

  • How do you start the computer from a previous date.

    I overloaded my desktop and now the computer is frozen. It will turn on but none of the applictions work. I can pull up preferences. I would like to start my computer with a previous date when everything is working.  Please tell me how to do that. I know how to put it in safe boot.
    Thanks,

    To return your computer to a previous date you have to have been doing backups with the Application called TimeMachine.  It is turned off, by default.   TimeMachine automatically backs-up your user files to another disk or to rounter with a backup disk.  When TimeMachine is enabled, you can return to any time or date in the past by running the TimeMachine application and doing a Restore on the date and time you choose.
    If you didn't have TimeMachine running or a current backup....
    FYI:  Microsoft's Windows has a feature to restore it's Registry to a previous date, but that is not backup of the user files.   It allows the system to replace the Registry database back to a point where it was not corrupted. 
    A similar fix for the Mac OS is to reboot the computer and hold down 4 keys to reset the PRAM (that is your system Preferences).  This is a very quick fix and it should be the first thing you try.   As the system is restarting, hold down the OPTION- COMMAND-P-R keys all that the same time.
    Failing that, you can boot the system up in SAFE mode, which brings up the Mac OS without enabling any of the extensions.   It requires a wired USB keyboard and mouse - won't work with a wireless keyboard or mouse. Cycle power and hold down COMMAND-S keys on reboot.  This will allow you basic access to your system and you can reomove or delete any application that you suspect is causing a problem.
    If none of your applications work on the Mac, you can boot up from the gray repair disk (or boot up Disk Warrior or Tech Tools).   All of them will clean up the file systems and that is usually all you need to fix things. Insert the disk. cycle the power button (hold it for 11 seconds) and hold Command Key+C (for CD) on your keyboard while it boots back up. 
    The most common cause for persistient hangs is too little memory (RAM) or the harddisk is full.   The RAM problem can be minimized by not running other big applications.   If the harddisk is over 80% full, you will see significant slowing.  At 90-95% full, the system can barely run.   Run Disk Utitliy from the APPLICATIONS / UTLILITIES Folder, as The Hatter suggested (above).  Disk Repair is the option.
    Note: If any recovery works with a wireless keyboard and mouse, I am not aware of that new functionality.   Also, any USB keyboard and mouse will work, even if it's from a PC.

  • How do you get the iTunes visualizer OUT of fullscreen mode?

    I'm using WhiteCap as a Plugin visualizer.
    I pressed CTRL+F once upon a time to put the visualizer full screen, now I'm finding it impossible to put it back.
    Whilst in the visualizer if I right click or press CTRL+F again, it closes the visualizer, and when reopened it's still full screen.
    I need it not-fullscreen to change the settings in WhiteCap.
    So how do I fix this?
    I don't want to Re-Install iTunes because I spend ALOT of time sorting my iTunes library.

    Im sorry but I figured it out now. I hate when you figure something out right after you do something extreme like signup for a profile here and post a question. Well to those who want the answer all in one shot there are 2 solutions for me.
    1. Make sure Safari is updated completely. You can check by clicking SAFARI> ABOUT SAFARI
    Safari 5.0.5 gave me this problem but the new update is 5.1.2
    2.Glims - Free ad on for Safari which enables you to view you window in COMPLETE full screen at all times, as well as maximise your window to fill all empty space (makes so you dont have to worry about accidentally clicking on your desktop which I do all the time lol). You can use this option once Glims is installed simply by clicking on
    SAFARI> Full Screen
    or
    SAFARI> Maximise Window Size
    By doing Full Screen mode you can then click on the full screen capability on the website you are on
