When you finally have your iPad in hand. You can't just plug it in and dump every app, song, and video you've ever downloaded. Here's how to get things set up and curate your iPad’s collection. Like how to play DVD movie on iPad, video on your iPad, and how to view the incompatible document with your iPad like ebook, PowerPoint presentation, etc.

First up!

Take it out of the packaging, and plug it in. iTunes should show this screen welcoming you to your new iPad. If not, don't panic. You probably just don't have the latest version of iTunes (9.1) installed. Press continue to get to the setting up, and click through the license agreement. Sign in with your iTunes account, or set one up if you don't have one already. You might get a message that says an iPad has previously been synced with your computer.

The easiest thing to cut back on, for now, is media. We recommend against automatically syncing anything for now, because a bunch of TV shows and podcasts that hardly make a dent on your laptop's hard drive could eat up your whole iPad.

 

Get In Sync

In all likelihood, you have a boatload of iPhone apps that you'll be tempted to dump onto your iPad. That'd be a mistake. Camera and GPS apps really have no use, so go ahead and uncheck those right away. Also, don't bother syncing any apps that have HD versions you're interested in.

Going through a long list of apps you already have on iTunes is sort of a pain at this point, with no way to differentiate between iPhone and iPad apps. They're just all lumped in together. Surely this will be addressed in a future iTunes update, but for now, if you're starting fresh, browsing the App Store on the iPad itself is much more satisfying.

Media is best synced manually, for the space issues we mentioned above. You can autofill songs in from play lists, or drag them in one by one from your iTunes library. Same for video.

We'll be posting in-depth guides on how to best convert your videos and PowerPoint to iPad-friendly formats soon.(the free tool required: Best iPad video converter and mac iPad video converter)
