Introudcution of self

[maybe57]

Hello, I am new to the forum. I have an IPAD 3 and previously an IPAD 2. I didn't get all of the versatility out of the 2 that I want to out of the 3. I want to turn my 3 into a mobile computer. I hate to think I spent the money just to browse the web. Any tips and tricks are much appreciated. My main goal is to use Microsoft sofware. I also like to search the web for various home projects, products, and shoes (after all I am female). I also have an Iphone 4S. I want to integrate them so that I am fully functional and organized. I have a long commute to work and have many responsibilties. I could use some help and appreciate any I can get.

I am at a beginner level when it comes to technology. I want to be the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo- nothing illegal, but to be able to do what I need to do.

I want to use the technology I have when I go camping. I have a very small motorhome but would like to watch tv, surf web, and be productive inside the home when weather will not let me outside.

I need to be able to assist my daughter with applications - remotely.

Dream Goals: SAP Developer, Master Access so I can build databases whenever I need to.

Most immediate need is to be able to use my IPAD 3 to track my life, i.e. use at work for taking notes in meetings, able to access files from notebook, keep me on schedule.

I appreciate the opportunity to join and look forward to all I will learn.

You won't be able to use Microsoft software on your iPad. The only place to get software(apps) for your iPad is through the app store or through Cydia if your iPad is jailbroken.
