Apple posts iPad guided tour videos
Apple has posted new "guided tour" iPad videos meant to give details of the device's features. Unlike the original promo video which was a broad overview, the guided tours get into the specifics.There are 11 videos in total, each explaining and demonstrating key iPad features, including Mail, Safari, Photos, Video, YouTube, iPod, iTunes, iBooks, Keynote, Pages and Numbers. There's also an option to watch all of the videos, one after the other. As you'd expect, they're very well done and feature best-case-scenarios; the connections are all fast, the photos are gorgeous, etc. The snapshots of my kids never look that good!
Enjoy the demos for now and bide your time until this weekend. We're almost there.
Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

iWork makes the iPad, the innovations in graphical interface they've come up with are amazing.
April 01 2010 at 3:15 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI keep waiting for a video showing someone clicking the plus button in the bottom left corner of the iPod app. I assume it lets you create a playlist, and if so, that's a major step up from the iPhone/iPod Touch, which doesn't allow playlist creation (besides a single On-The-Go playlist.) Anyone know if that's indeed what it does?

People need to stop pretending it's impossible to print from the iPad. You can print from the iPhone, so you'll be able to print from the iPad. They're called third party apps.

Now that I just recently upgraded to Aperture (from iPhoto), I wonder if I'll lose out on this capability.
I've never sync'd photos with my iPhone (even when I used iPhoto) - does anyone know if the iTunes app will let a device (iPhone/iPad/whatever) sync photos to Aperture as well as iPhoto, or is it iTunes photo syncing limited to iPhoto?
(I'm using a Mac/Snow Leopard, if it makes a difference)
Yes it will work with aperture assuming it's like apple tv, iPhone, iPod..which it definitely will be.
March 29 2010 at 10:35 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyYou should be able to easily sync pictures between iPhoto and Aperture as they are both apps developed by Apple, and I think that they try to keep connectivity between all of their apps. Hope this helps!
