I got lost around "find my ipad" without mobile me. the presenter is assuming that there are things I know how to do.. so there were some steps missing. something about setting up a mail account through iTunes, but there were no instructions about how to do that or whether I do that on my computer or on the ipad. is there another place where I can find this?
tks
I anticipated that some people would want to know more about the steps needed to set up Find My iPad. So I put a link into the video right at 2:41 (look for it). The link is for http://apple.com/ipad/built-in-apps/find-my-ipad.html -- go there and you can find out how to set it up.
oh great. I thought that if you did Mobile Me you had to pay for a subscription and I'm not ready to do that.
thanks
I set up 'find my ipad' but how do I set up the security code and load in an alarm sound for it?
Security code? Alarm? That's not part of Find My iPad.
