Hi Everyone

 

I work in a Primary school and we have bought some iPad's for the first time (16 IPad2's and 16 Mini's). I was recommended to use AC but finding it hard to do a few things, so help would be appreciated.

 

I attached one of my ipads to my mac and setup a wifi profile and put it on supervision and prepared it. when it was complete I setup my apps and icloud then did a backup. I set another one up and used the backup but it went through the new install setting (choose language and location etc). Is this right as it would be a pain to do this on all new installs? also it does not save the icloud password can this be save?

 

Hope this make sense.

 

Thanks

Hi,

New to configuring iPads as well, having the same problem when cloning. My understanding is when cloning it won't save any passwords.

Is no one else having this problem? its a pain having to go through all the pads every time.

Try this PDF, I used it when I set up ours. It's a good starting guide.
