Proles settings
Conguration proles dene settings for using iPad with corporate or school networks or
accounts. You might be asked to install a conguration prole that was sent to you in an email,
or one that is downloaded from a webpage. iPad asks for your permission to install the prole,
and displays information about what it contains, when you open the le. You can see the proles
you have installed in Settings > General > Proles. If you delete a prole, all of the settings, apps,
and data associated with the prole are also deleted.
Back up iPad
You can use iCloud or iTunes to automatically back up iPad (in iTunes, use File > Device > Back Up).
If you choose to back up using iCloud, you can’t also use iTunes to automatically back up to your
computer, but you can use iTunes to manually back up to your computer. iCloud backs up iPad
daily over Wi-Fi, when it’s connected to a power source and is locked. The date and time of the last
backup is listed at the bottom of the Storage & Backup screen.
