M mreduk iPF Noob Dec 13, 2010 #1 Hi, I have got my partner a Ipad for Christmas and I would like to setup before she opens it. If I connect it to her laptop and itunes will she be able to tell once it has been disconnected. Don't want her to go into itunes and see a new Ipad option!! Thanks Ed

H Hasty iPF Novice Dec 13, 2010 #2 She'll know. It's a girl thing. I've only to glance at my wife's laptop and she starts to narrow her eyes... Seriously though if she uses iTunes she'll notice as you have to initialise the iPad with iTunes before you can use it. Best to leave her to set it up. All part of the learning process. Great present though.

D Davidmacpherson iPF Noob Dec 14, 2010 #8 Bought one for my GF too but wouldn't dream of depriving her of the fun of taking it out of the sealed box and being the first person to handle it! As others say, part of the fun is in setting it up and she is better at these things than me anyway! Hoping for lots of "luck" too - HoHoho David.
