To share an iPad with the whole family – Computer Total

In this article we discuss the ideal way to set up for use by several persons an iPad. We do this in two ways. In the first half, we discuss how to use an iPad in a family where everyone can see it all apart and then we discuss a situation where for example, small children also make use of the iPad and some content must be screened.



Open situation

Email

What do you do when everyone has their own e-mail account and would like to read? have mail on the iPad The iPad does not offer the possibility to login. Different users You can, of course, an account set up their own e-mail app, where you link an account to each app. But you can also easily in the Mail app to converge. All accounts

If you class=”c2″> Settings / E-mail, contacts and calendars All incoming . Anyone can view their own account in the relevant folder.

In the Mail app, you can fine various accounts to come. together

Apps

A year ago it was a drama with its all make use of the same iPad because only a limited number of apps could be placed. in a folder Now Apple has raised this limit, you can make a great distinction between apps that everyone uses (such as Pages, Mail, Photos, etc.), and apps that are specific to a particular user. Just create a folder with the name of the family member for whom the apps are meant, and so make a fine dispersion.

By creating a folder for each user you keep a better overview.

Calendar

The ability to share a calendar will be a godsend for many families. When only an iPad in the house, the central agenda can be simply used to post. All appointments Family members have also a iPhone, it will be completely useful. By logging on www.icloud.com (With the Apple ID of the iPad) and clicking Calendar , you can easily share the central agenda.

In the left pane Share calendars (an icon that looks like a wifi signal) and tick Private diary to. Now enter the Apple ID in the family members who are going to use the calendar and click OK . You now have a shared calendar. Everything that linked family members in the agenda on their iPhone, will show up on the iPad in the central agenda. That prevents a lot of communication problems within the family.

Share a central calendar works great.

Photos

Unfortunately, the Photos app on the iPad is also true that you, like in Mail, no multiple accounts can create for photos. In other words, everything is placed in the Camera Roll. Do different family members using the iPad Camera Roll than that can be quickly organized a rather messy.

Speak therefore agreed that each user gets his own album, which pictures can be placed. From the roll Of course, the pictures still come in at the Camera Roll, but so you can easily move them to the correct folder and keep things organized.

When you make an album for each user, the Camera Roll clutter.
