• Fall 2015 - iPad mini 4
• Fall 2015 - iPad Pro

To determine which iPad model you have you will need to tap on:

Settings > General > About > Legal > Regulatory

You will need to look for the Model number at the top of Regulatory screen.  Example: A1458

Here is a list of the various aspects of the iPad hardware.  The locations listed in parenthesis are based on the iPad being held in a vertical orientation with the Home Button on the bottom.

• Headphone Jack (top)
• Microphone (top)
• On/Off a.k.a. Sleep/Wake switch (top)
• Home Button (front bottom)
• Multi-touch Display (front)
• FaceTime Camera (front top - NOT ON ORIGINAL IPAD)
• 30 pin dock connector (bottom - Original iPad, iPad 2, iPad 3)
• Lightning connector (bottom - iPad 4, iPad mini, iPad Air, iPad Pro)
• Speaker (bottom)
• iSight Camera (back)
• Volume up/down (right side)
• Silent/Screen Rotation Lock switch (right side - NOT ON iPad Air 2)

The Headphone Jack allows you to plug in a set of speakers or a pair of earbuds/headphones into your iPad. You do not need to use Apple branded speakers or earbuds/headphones.

Here are a couple scenarios where you might want to use a pair of earbuds/headphones:

• Watching a movie on an airplane
• Listening to an audiobook while someone else is in the room reading
• Enjoying music on the bus

The Microphone is active while using FaceTime, Skype, Siri or the Camera app (recording videos). You can also download apps to record voice memos.

The On/Off switch is found along the top of the iPad and is also called the Sleep/Wake Switch. We rarely turn the iPad off. We just let it go to sleep when it is not being used.

The Home Button has various functions. The Home Button is not the "undo" button.

Single click Home Button

• If your iPad is sleeping and you click the Home Button it will wake up and ask you to slide to unlock.
• If you're in an app like Safari, Mail, Angry Birds, etc. and you click the Home Button you'll return to the Home Screen with all your app icons.
• If you're on your second or third Home Screen and click the Home Button you'll return to your main (first) Home Screen.
• If you're using Search and click the Home Button you'll go back to the Home Screen you were previously on.
• If your iPad is sleeping but still playing music or media (Music app, Pandora app, iHeart Radio app) and you single click the Home Button the Audio controls will pop up on the lock screen so you can play, pause, skip, etc.

Double click Home Button

• If you're on the Home Screen or using an app and you double click the Home Button the Multitasking screen will be revealed so you can quickly switch between apps.

Press and Hold Home Button For Two Seconds

• If you press and hold the Home Button on an iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2,  iPad mini, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 4 or an iPad Pro, Siri will pop up and you can ask questions and give commands with your voice. (Learn about Siri in iPad - Search, Share, Discover)

The Multi-Touch Display allows you to interact with your iPad with your fingers. There are various gestures that you can perform. I have listed some basic ones below.

TAP
Tapping on your iPad is like clicking your mouse on a computer. Tapping is the most common and basic gesture.

DOUBLE-TAP
Tap an object twice quickly to double-tap. Double-taps are primarily used for zooming in or out on a webpage, photo, or map.

PRESS & HOLD
Pressing and holding your finger is similar to right clicking on a computer.

PINCH
A pinch is typically used to zoom in and out on text, photos, web pages, or maps.

SLIDE, SWIPE, & FLICK
Swiping is one of your primary navigational tools: You use a left or right swipe to move through app pages on your Home screen or images in the Photos app; you use an up or down swipe to read text in Safari, iBooks, Newsstand, or elsewhere. It’s one of the easiest gestures to learn. Some people will also refer to swiping as sliding.

A flick is just like a swipe, only faster. The faster or slower you move your finger, the faster or slower content will move. If you want to get to the bottom of a page quickly, just flick your finger upward in a fast motion.

Note: All flicking and swiping on your device is inverse, meaning that when you move your finger up (in other words, swipe up), you’re actually moving whatever is on the screen downward. This is the opposite of how most people are use to using a mouse on a computer. Apple has changed scrolling on the Mac to match the iPad.

The FaceTime Camera can be used with FaceTime or Skype to video chat with others. The kids like to use the FaceTime Camera with Photo Booth to take goofy photos of themselves.

30 Pin Connector can be found on the Original iPad, iPad 2, and iPad 3. The 30 Pin to USB cable can only be plugged into your iPad one way. If the iPad is facing you, the 30 Pin to USB cable should have a little oval with a line in the center of it facing you. If you try jamming the 30 Pin to USB cable upside down, you can cause damage to the cable or your iPad.

Lightning Connector can be found on the iPad 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2 and iPad mini, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3 and iPad mini 4.  The Lightning to USB cable can be plugged into your iPad either way.

The speaker can be found on the bottom left corner on the back of the Original iPad, iPad 2, iPad 3, and iPad 4. The two speakers can be found on the bottom near the Lightning connector on the iPad mini, iPad mini 2, iPad mini 3, iPad mini 4, iPad Air, iPad Air 2.

The iSight Camera allows you to take photos and record video. 

While listening to audio (music, podcasts, audiobooks, videos, etc.) you can adjust the volume using the Volume Up/Down switch on the side of your iPad. If you are expecting a FaceTime or Skype call on your iPad, make sure that your volume is turned up so you can hear when the call comes in.

The Side Switch can do two different tasks. It can either be a Mute switch or a Lock Rotation switch. You can tell that the Side Switch is active if it is flipped in the bottom position and you can see an orange dot.
