newbie needs help

[jillspring]

Hi I just bought an ipad - having been a PC user for years I'm finding it quite tricky to navigate and do stuff! Is there a 'help' button or anything? And if so how do I find it? Also, is it possible to store Word documents in Pages or something similar? And last question (for now) - can I tether it to android phone to use phone's 3G? Thanks to anyone who can help. Jill

There's the manual: Apple - Support - Manuals (also available in the ibooks store), but what exactly are you struggling 'to navigate and and do stuff'. The navigation of iOS is pretty easy and straightforward. Is there particular functions you can't do? Being more specific on what you wish to achieve will help people to provide you with answers.

Both the word documents and tethering have been answered (several times) in threads already on the board, do a search and if you still have questions post on the relevant threads.
