The 11-minute youtube video is at
1. From the “Hello” screen
- Swipe to start
- YES – enable Location
- It MIGHT ask you to select a network. Select MDS-student, then login as usual.
- Start using your iPad
Find the UTILITIES folder.
2. Meraki setup
- Inside UTILITIES, open up the Meraki SM app.
- If it says “Enrolled in All iPads” you are done!
- If it asks you to select from a list of things, select “All iPads”.
- If there is a field up top where you can type something, type this in [no spaces]
016 989 9899
- Then click “Enroll”. There will be a series of dialogue boxes. In EACH one click the button that tells it YES or START or ENROLL – use your common sense!
- Eventually you’ll see a webpage saying “waiting to enroll”. When you do, go home, and back to the Utilities folder.
3. Settings –> Email
- Click Email
- Setup NEW account
- Click GOOGLE
- Type in your Name, email address, password, description {I suggest MDS for the description}
- Click NEXT
- If all four items in the next screen are Green, click SAVE. [If not, make ’em green.]
4. Settings –> iCloud [CAN be done later – this sets up the auto-backup feature.]
- Click iCloud
- Sign in with your AppleID
- Password SHOULD be same as moodle/email.
- If moodle password does NOT have at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, AND one number:
If missing case – they were supposed to switch the case of the first letter in their password.
If missing number, they were supposed to add 1970 to the end of their password. - If it doesn’t work/they can’t remember it –> Click “Forgot AppleID/password”, and select the EMAIL option. [They probably don’t remember the answers to their security questions. If they do they can try that option.]
- If it DOES work, you’ll see the iCloud settings screen.
OFF: mail, Find my Ipad
ON: whatever else [though Notes will require yet another setup process] - Click “Storage and Backup” button
- Click “Backup Now” button.
At the end of the video I take about 30 seconds [NOT minutes like I say in the video!] to mention a few apps that are on their ipads now.
That’s it!
