If your Mac or PC doesn't provide enough power to charge iPad, a "Not Charging" message appears in the status bar.

Important: The iPad battery may drain instead of charge if iPad is connected to a computer that's turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, to a USB hub, or to the USB port on a keyboard.

Charging Status: The battery icon in the upper-right corner of the status bar shows the battery level or charging status.

Replace the Battery: The iPad’s rechargeable batteries have a limited number of charge cycles and may eventually need to be replaced. The battery is not user accessible; it can be replaced only by an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

Battery Information: iPad has an internal, lithium-ion rechargeable battery. For more information about the battery including tips for maximizing battery life go to www.apple.com.batteries.

A fully charged battery can last up to 10 hours.

Speak selection is a great tool that allows the iPad to read selected text in various document formats and sites. Although the pronunciation of some words is not the best this function is still very usable. Using iBooks you can read PDF documents downloaded from W Ross Library or Internet sites such as EQAO. MS Word (DOC & DOCX) can also be read, with more clarity than , directly from “Cloud” drives or opening in other Free Apps such as FileApp. WordPerfect Document (WPD) cannot be used on an iPad without purchasing an App, which is $5.99.
