iPad and iPad Pro For Dummies, 11th Edition

Product Information

Your iPad features two important buttons: the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button. The Home button is the circular button found on the front of your iPad, while the Sleep/Wake button is located on the top of the iPad. We'll go into more details about these buttons later on.

You can plug the USB connector into your Mac or PC to sync or plug it into the USB power adapter. If you bought an iPad Pro with a USB-C charging cable, you will need to plug it into a USB-C port on your Mac or PC, or into the included-USB-C power adapter mentioned shortly.z To move an item within an app, long-press the item until it lifts up. If the item is text, select it before you long-press it. Now, drag the item up or down to move it to a different part of the document. Drag to the very bottom or top of a long document, and it’ll scroll automatically. Lift your finger to drop the item. If you connect the USB cable to USB ports on your keyboard, USB hub, display, or other external device, or even the USB ports on an older Mac or PC, you may be able to sync but more than likely can’t charge the battery. If you're not interested in the Smart Cover (or any of the cases in the Apple Store), don't worry—you can find hundreds of alternatives if you search online or in retail stores. No matter what you choose, a good case or cover will go a long way toward protecting your device so you can enjoy it for years to come.
