Setting up your iPad

Setting up Mail and Apple ID

Your child already has a Gmail account through the Catholic Education Office (CEO). It is typically: firstname.lastname@sydstu.catholic.edu.au

An Apple ID is a free account you create with Apple so you can download apps, music, videos, books etc. You may choose to use a family Apple ID you have already created or create a new one for this iPad.

It is important that parents remain in control of the account and the password. Students under the age of 13 years are not permitted to set up iTunes accounts. Students are not permitted to download apps at school and should not have access to this password in order to prevent unapproved downloads.

Recommended: do not leave your credit card on your account. You may prefer to purchase iTunes cards instead.
