Can I use my laptop to set up and iPad 2 for my sister.  She will use it at her house.

How do I set up an iPad 2 for my sister using my laptop?  I don't want to keep her information on my laptop or give her mine, however, she does have an itunes account and if I log her in on my laptop, will that allow correct set up of ipad 2 for her without having any conflicts of information ?

You do not need to use your laptop at all in order to setup your sister's iPad. I would set the device up via WiFi. If you know here Apple ID and password, its a breeze. Even if you do not know that information, it can all be entered later when she begins to use the device.
This was relevant and written for the iPad 3 but it is still the same basic setup on the new iPad with Retina display.

My recommendation is to just get it up and running for her. She will have to do so much customization on it anyway. Frankly, I think that a big part of the awe and wonder of getting a new iPad is the setup process and I believe that you cheat the recipient out of a really cool experience when you don't let them set it up themselves. Just my 2¢.

    Only the carrier an iPhone was sold as carrier locked with can officially unlock the iPhone. It is my understanding that Softbank in Japan does not unlock iPhones.

  • If I buy a MacBook Air in America, can I use it over here in the U.K. without any software problems?

    If I buy a MacBook Air in America, can I use it over here in the U.K. without any software problems?

    It is true that they are not region free with DVD's even though they let you switch the region 3 or 4 times and then it locks on the last region you choose forever.
    Software is a different story, I myself own a MacBook Pro from Europe but I install software I buy from the US.
    I have friends that own Macs from the US and they live in Europe and they don't have any problems.
    I have a friend from New Zealand with a MacBook and when he comes over in Europe he has installed European software.
    So you see, I think a software region problem if you ever have any should be extremely rare.

    No. Facetime is exclusive to iOS devices and Macs. There is no android version. You would have to use a 3rd party app/service like Skype.

    Hi
    You should ask your relative to physically take the iPhone to the store rather than shipping it because as diesel vdub has said:
    "No Apple store will accept an iPhone shipped to them"
    All you have to do is safely pack and ship your iPhone from the Philppines to your California-based relative.

    If it's a free gmail account, you don't. Google no longer permits free accounts to be set up using Exchange Active Sync. Only paid google apps accounts can be set up as Exchange accounts.

  • Is it Possible to set Top and Bottom Margin for each section?

    I've been googling and haven't found an answer to this problem.
    I need to specify a different top and bottom margin for each section in my document. The "document margins" apply to the whole document, so I've set those to a low amount, and I can set the Layout Left and right margins - but the "Layout Margins" do not allow "top and bottom" only "before and after". This is a critical difference, because if you have 2 pages in a section, only the first page gets the "before" margin, and only the 2nd page gets the "after" margin. This is a little odd, and I'm frankly surprised we are in version 4 of this app - and you can't set top and bottom margins for each section.
    If you insert a "layout break" on each page, then you can get the margins to reset for each page inside a section, but this is not an acceptable workaround as I need to setup templates for staff to use that will "flow" like a normal word processor.
    Does any one have any suggestions?

    On page 49 in the English Guide version it tells you about Lay-out margins. This is the text
    *Defining Layout Margins*
    *In a word processing document, a layout margin is the space around columns in a*
    layout.
    *To change the layout margin in a word processing document:*
    *1 Click in a column.*
    *2 Click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Layout button, and then click Layout.*
    *3 To change the outside margins of the column(s), enter values in the Left and Right*
    *fields under Layout Margins.*
    *4 To specify the amount of space above and below the column(s), enter values in the*
    *Before and After fields under Layout Margins.*
    *The new margins can’t extend outside the page margins set for the document in the*
    *Document inspector.*
    I hope this helps.

  • How can I remove iCloud from my Mac Book and iPad and Mac Book Air and then just reload back on the MB Air and iPad only?

    How can I remove iCloud from my Mac Book and iPad and Mac Book Air and then just reload back on the MB Air and iPad only, which have a different user with a separate Apple ID?

    You have quite muddied up the waters, I'm afraid. Assuming you now have a single GUID partition formatted Mac OS Extended, Journaled, you should try reinstalling Lion:
    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • How to set upper and lower limit for service notification in SPRO

    Hello everyone,
    Good morning....!!
    I am new to SAP PM and to SCN as well.
    I have a question on Service notification user status.
    I  have notification profile configured in SAP as below:
    Status no      Status          Short text              Lower limit          Upper limit
    5                  REGD          Registered                1                          70
    10                PCKS            Pack sent                  1                          70
    20                APRC            Application received  1                        70
    etc..
    I want the statusesto be set as  navigation should only allow to go back one by one...like from APRC -->PCKS not to REGD.From PCKS -->REGD etc..not vice versa.
    Can enayone explain me to how to set lower and upper limits for these according ot the above requirement.
    for more details please check my attachment.
    Thanks in advance..!!

    Once you change the status to previous status, just save the order. Then again open the order & try to change the user status.
    Just I made replica of your profile. I could able to change (even without saving the order).
