5.0 out of 5 starsGreat reference book for using my iPad.
By Bill A. Belt VINE VOICE on December 16, 2015
Format: Paperback Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
I received my book a couple of days ago and I am still reading and looking thru it, so I have not gotten all the way thru it yet. This is going to be a very handy reference book for me using my iPad. I have always had to call my kids for help. I look forward to showing them a thing or soon. I am impressed with the book. It is well written. Nice size. 529 pages. "My iPad for Seniors” has a user rating from beginner to intermediate. I agree. I don’t think that my son-n-law, who is a computer programmer will get much out of this book. Then again he is not a senior and I am, and I thick this book will be very helpful..The book even covers the IOS 9 which I have been worried about loading on my iPad. Seems I have problems when there is an major update and I usually am not pleased with the changes. At least now I have a book to refer to when I have a problem. There is so much that this book covers that it is impossible to write about all of them. The book goes from the simple side as to how to hook up your iPad to your wi-fi, to taking photos and them editing them using various photo apps. If you are looking for an alternative to those “dummies” book, then this book is for you. I highly recommend this book as a great iPad reference book.

5.0 out of 5 starsAn excellent book for seniors who want to access and use the many features available on their iPads ...
By Deb HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on December 29, 2015
Format: Paperback Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
I do have another instructional iPad book intended for seniors. Unlike this one, “My iPad for Seniors,” it’s truly basic and intended for the crowd who just wants to turn the darn thing on. Yes, this one is for seniors, but for the senior who wants to really explore and use the many features an iPad has to offer. Younger generations have grown up with technology and are erudite.

This book is one that will help most seniors become tech-savvy at least when it concerns the iPad. It’s a perfect book for the person who is a visual learner and needs a step-by-step approach. For example, I love the section on working with and filling in web forms. There’s a sidebar that is a mini-instructional that discusses how your iPad camera can be used as a scanner to enter in a credit card number. Just how good can it get? Frankly, I didn’t even know this feature existed.

Color coding is a nice feature the author has taken full advantage of in this book. The top edge of the book is color coded by chapter, making it much easier for the user to get back to an important chapter. I simply bend the edge of the book back and fan it to get back to something I liked. Of course “It’s Not All Good” and there are bold red sidebars that talk about the drawbacks of certain features. There are light green sidebars that encourage the senior to “Go Further,” like the one that talks about using the camera feature as a scanner. There are many, many of these in this book.

The light blue areas are the main topic areas. These have all the basic need-to-know features that will come in handy on a day-to-day basis. Creating bookmarks (deleting them), arranging apps on the home screen, creating a calendar, and other basics are things seniors need to know how to do.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsA Must Reference for Seniors using iPads
By Amazon Customer VINE VOICE on December 17, 2015
Format: Paperback Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
Occasionally am asked to give a workshop on Apple machines and devices (i.e. iPads, iPad minis, iPhones, Macs et al) to a Senior Computer Club. Currently I use “My iPad” as a reference, and am reluctant to recommend it to the workshop participants. When the opportunity to obtain “My iPad for Seniors” the order was place. First, let me say any book written by Gary Rosenzweig is a winner, and this is one. (MyiPad for Seniors)
The book covers the recently released (September 2015) iOS 9, with indicators noting the “new” features. Further, this version covers all models of the iPad Air, iPad mini, iPad pro, iPad 3/4 generations, in addition to the iPad 2. Que offers an on-line bonus chapter titled “Writing with Pages” - register to access the bonus chapter! Extremely well laid out, with step-b-step pictorial instructions for using the iPad.Color coded table of content with a detailed “index” makes this book a must for seniors. The section “finding and using apps for entertainment (i.e. watching movies/shows using Netflix) is a real plus. Reasonably priced with a Kindle Edition auto-delivered wirelessly. Highly recommended without reservations.

Note: The only addition I would suggest is expanding the “Find My iPad” section to include steps to be taken when an iPad/iPhone is lost or stolen.

5.0 out of 5 starsA great book for everyone. Clear diagrams and covers most everything you need to know.
By Amazon Customer TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE VOICE on December 20, 2015
Format: Paperback Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
This is a great book filled with colorful pictures and larger than normal font that covers really everything you need to know. Everything is well laid out with clear diagrams of where to find particular settings. This book is not necessarily for seniors, but really for anyone. I like that it's so well laid out and very clear to understand.

5.0 out of 5 starsHighly recommended easy to read and understand
By J. Weber VINE VOICE on January 5, 2016
Format: Paperback Vine Customer Review of Free Product ( What's this? )
This was wonderful timing to review this book as we had just purchased an ipad for my MIL - a very active woman in her 80's. Having had an ipad for years I went through set up and basics with her and then we went through most of the book together, some on her own. The information is very well presented with both dialog and screen shots so it's quite easy to follow along to complete tasks. Everything is covered in this book, from set up and security to facetime ( and answers those all important questions: "how do I hold it when I'm talking?" ) to signing up for podcasts, using itunes, and even how to shop online. Anything you'd want to know about is covered including photos, editing, video, using airdrop and icloud, security, downloading apps.... I was a bit surprised at how extensive the information was and how easy it was for my MIL to understand and get that ipad rockin! I highly recommend this book. My only question is why it's geared toward seniors only? I would guess more younger people know more about apple products? Although I felt this book would be helpful to anyone to really get to know your ipad.
