`Before you can use any of iPhone’s features, you must activate iPhone by signing up
`for a service plan with an iPhone service carrier in your area and registering iPhone
`with the network.
`
`Your iPhone may have been activated at the time of purchase. If it isn’t activated,
`contact your iPhone retailer or cellular service provider.
`
`For more information about iPhone, go to www.apple.com/iphone.

`Install the SIM card:
` Insert the end of the SIM eject tool into the hole on the SIM tray.
`Press firmly and push it straight in until the tray pops out. If you don’t have a SIM eject
`tool, you can use the end of a paper clip.
` Pull out the SIM tray and place the SIM card in the tray.
`The angled corner of the SIM ensures that the card fits only the correct way in the tray.
` With the tray aligned as shown, carefully replace the SIM tray containing the SIM card
`in iPhone.
`
`Registering iPhone
`Registering iPhone with iTunes enables iTunes to identify your iPhone when it’s
`connected to your computer and help you manage its contents. You can then sync
`information with your computer and media from iTunes, and create backups of
`iPhone’s contents and settings. You can create an iTunes Store account, or specify an
`existing account, to enable purchases with iPhone. iTunes also records iPhone’s serial
`number in the event you need it for service or in case of loss.
`
`Register iPhone:
` Download and install the latest version of iTunes from www.itunes.com/download.

`
` Connect iPhone to a USB 2.0 port on your Mac or PC using the cable that came with
`iPhone.
`
` Follow the onscreen instructions in iTunes to register iPhone and sync iPhone with
`your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks on your computer, and with music, video, and
`other content from your iTunes library.
`
`In the Set Up Your iPhone screen, select “Automatically sync contacts, calendars and
`bookmarks” to configure those items to sync automatically when you connect iPhone
`to your computer. Or, you can customize your sync settings in iTunes. See the following
`section.
`
`Syncing with iTunes
`With iPhone, it’s easy to have instant access to your contacts, calendars, and even your
`browser bookmarks. iTunes can sync all this information to iPhone, and your music,
`video, and other iTunes library content as well.
`
`Setting Up Syncing
`
`You can set iTunes to sync any or all of the following:
`Contacts—names, phone numbers, addresses, email addresses, and more
` Â
`Calendars—appointments and events
` Â
`Email account settings
` Â
`Webpage bookmarks
` Â
`Ringtones
` Â
`Music and audiobooks

`
`
`Applications purchased or downloaded from the iTunes Store
`
`Â Y
`
`
`
`ou can adjust sync settings whenever iPhone is connected to your computer.
`
`Ringtones, music, audiobooks, podcasts, video content, and purchased applications
`are synced from your iTunes library. If you don’t already have content in iTunes, the
`iTunes Store (available in some countries) makes it easy to purchase or subscribe to
`content and download it to iTunes. You can also add music to your iTunes library from
`your CDs. To learn about iTunes and the iTunes Store, open iTunes and choose Help >
`iTunes Help.
`
`Contacts, calendars, and webpage bookmarks are synced with applications on your
`computer, as described in the following section. Contacts and calendars are synced
`both ways between your computer and iPhone. New entries or changes you make
`on iPhone are synced to your computer, and vice versa. Webpage bookmarks are also
`synced both ways. Photos can be synced from an application or from a folder.
`
`Email account settings are only synced from your computer’s email application to
`iPhone. This allows you to customize your email accounts on iPhone without affecting
`email account settings on your computer.
`
`Note: You can also set up email accounts directly on iPhone. See “Mail, Contacts, and
`Calendar Accounts” on page 11.
`
`Purchases made on iPhone from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store or the App Store are
`synced back to your iTunes library. You can also purchase or download music and
`applications directly from the iTunes Store on your computer, then sync them to
`iPhone.
`
`If you like, you can set iPhone to sync with only a portion of what’s on your computer.
`For example, you might want to sync only a group of contacts from your address book,
`or only unwatched video podcasts.
`
`Important: You can connect and sync with only one iPhone at a time. Disconnect
`one before connecting another. You should be logged in to your own computer user
`account before connecting iPhone. On a PC, if you sync more than one iPhone or iPod
`to the same computer user account, you must use the same sync settings for each.
`
`Set up iTunes syncing:
` Connect iPhone to your computer, and open iTunes (if it doesn’t open automatically).
` In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar.
` Configure the sync settings in each of the settings panes.
`
`See the following section for descriptions of the panes.

`or Microsoft Exchange, syncing for those items is turned off in iTunes. See “Setting Up
`Accounts” on page 12.
` Click Apply in the lower-right corner of the screen.
`By default, “Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected” is selected.
`
`iPhone Settings Panes in iTunes
`The following sections provide an overview of each of the iPhone settings panes.
`For more information, open iTunes and choose Help > iTunes Help.
`
`Summary Pane
`Select “Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected” to have iTunes sync iPhone
`automatically whenever you connect it to your computer. Deselect this option if you
`want to sync only by clicking the Sync button in iTunes. For more information about
`preventing automatic syncing, see “Preventing Automatic Syncing” on page 11.
`
`Select “Sync only checked songs and videos” if you want to sync only items that are
`individually checked in your iTunes library.
`
`Select “Manually manage music and videos” to turn off automatic syncing in the Music
`and Video settings panes. See “Manually Managing Content” on page 60.

`
` Â
`
` Â
`
`Info Pane
`The Info pane lets you configure the sync settings for your contacts, calendars, email
`accounts, and web browser.
`Contacts
` Â
`You can sync contacts with applications such as Mac OS X Address Book, Microsoft
`Entourage, Yahoo! Address Book, and Google Address Book on a Mac, or with Yahoo!
`Address Book, Google Address Book, Windows Address Book (Outlook Express),
`Vista Contacts, or Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync
`contacts with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync contacts with only one
`application at a time.)
`If you sync with Yahoo! Address Book, you only need to click Configure to enter your
`new login information when you change your Yahoo! ID or password after you’ve
`set up syncing.
`Calendars
`You can sync calendars from applications such as iCal and Microsoft Entourage on
`a Mac, or from Microsoft Outlook 2003 or 2007 on a PC. (On a Mac, you can sync
`calendars with multiple applications. On a PC, you can sync calendars with only one
`application at a time.)
`Mail Accounts
`You can sync email account settings from Mail on a Mac, and from Microsoft
`Outlook 2003 or 2007 or Outlook Express on a PC. Account settings are only
`transferred from your computer to iPhone. Changes you make to an email account
`on iPhone don’t affect the account on your computer.
`Note: The password for your Yahoo! email account isn’t saved on your computer,
`so it can’t be synced and must be entered on iPhone. In Settings, choose “Mail,
`Contacts, Calendars,” tap your Yahoo! account, and enter the password.
`Web Browser
`You can sync bookmarks on iPhone with Safari on a Mac, or with Safari or Microsoft
`Internet Explorer on a PC.
`Advanced
`These options let you replace the information on iPhone with the information on
`your computer during the next sync.
`
` Â
`
` Â
`
`Ringtones Pane
`Use the Ringtones pane to select the ringtones you want to sync to iPhone. To learn
`how to create ringtones in iTunes, see “Creating Ringtones” on page 42.
`
`Music, Podcasts, and Video Panes
`Use these panes to specify the media you want to sync. You can sync all music,
`podcasts, and videos, or select the playlists and specific podcasts and videos you want
`on iPhone.
`
`
`

`
`
`
`Chapter 1 Getting Started
`
`
`
`If you want to watch rented movies on iPhone, transfer them to iPhone using the
`Video pane in iTunes.
`
`If there’s not enough room on iPhone for all the media you’ve specified, iTunes asks if
`you want to create a special playlist. iTunes creates the playlist for you, and sets it to
`sync with iPhone.
`
`Photos Pane
`You can sync photos with iPhoto 4.0.3 or later, or Aperture on a Mac; or with Adobe
`Photoshop Album 2.0 or later, or Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0 or later on a PC. You
`can also sync photos in any folder on your computer that contains images.
`
`Applications Pane
`Use the Applications pane to specify which App Store applications you want installed
`on iPhone. Any applications downloaded directly to iPhone are automatically backed
`up to your iTunes library when you sync. If you manually delete an application on
`iPhone, you can reinstall it from this pane as long as it was previously synced.
`
`Preventing Automatic Syncing
`You may want to prevent iPhone from syncing automatically when you connect
`iPhone to a computer other than the one you usually sync with.
`Turn off automatic syncing for iPhone: Connect iPhone to your computer. In iTunes,
`select iPhone in the sidebar, then click the Summary tab. Deselect “Automatically sync
`when this iPhone is connected.” You can always sync by clicking the Sync button.
`Prevent automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods: In iTunes choose iTunes >
`Preferences (on a Mac) or Edit > Preferences (on a PC), click Devices, and select “Disable
`automatic syncing for all iPhones and iPods.”
`
`If this checkbox is selected, iPhone won’t sync automatically, even if “Automatically
`sync when this iPhone is connected” is selected in the Summary pane.
`Prevent automatic syncing one time, without changing settings: Open iTunes. Then,
`as you connect iPhone to your computer, press and hold Command-Option (on a Mac)
`or Shift-Control (on a PC) until you see iPhone appear in the sidebar.
`Sync manually: In iTunes, select iPhone in the sidebar, then click Sync in the lower-
`right corner of the window. Or, if you’ve changed any sync settings, click Apply.
`
`Mail, Contacts, and Calendar Accounts
`iPhone works with MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and many of the most popular
`email systems.
`
`
`
`Chapter 1 Getting Started
`

`
`
`
`Setting Up Accounts
`MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange provide not only email, but contact and calendar
`information that can be synced to iPhone automatically, over the air. MobileMe can
`also sync your bookmarks on iPhone with Safari on a Mac, or with Safari or Microsoft
`Internet Explorer on a PC. You set up MobileMe, Exchange, and other email accounts
`directly on iPhone.
`
`iPhone uses the Exchange ActiveSync protocol to sync email, calendars, and contacts
`with the following versions of Microsoft Exchange:
`Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2
` Â
`Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1
`
`
`or many of the popular email accounts, iPhone automatically enters most of the
`settings for you.

`

`
`If you don’t have already have an email account, you can get a free account online at
`www.yahoo.com, www.google.com, or www.aol.com. You can also try MobileMe, free
`for 60 days. Go to www.me.com.
`
`Add an account on iPhone:
` From iPhone’s Home screen, tap Settings.
` Tap “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” then tap Add Account.
` Tap an account type:
`Microsoft Exchange
` Â
`MobileMe
` Â
`Google email
` Â
`Yahoo! Mail
` Â
`AOL
` Â
`Other
` Â
` Enter your account information and tap Save.
`Your service provider or system administrator can provide the account settings you
`need.
`Exchange accounts: Enter your complete email address, domain (optional), user name,
`password, and a description. The description can be whatever you like.
`iPhone supports Microsoft’s Autodiscovery service, which uses your user name and
`password to determine the address of the Exchange server. If the server’s address
`can’t be determined, you’re asked to enter it. (Enter the complete address in the Server
`field.) Once you connect to the Exchange server, you may be prompted to change your
`passcode to match the policies set on the server.
`

`
`Chapter 1 Getting Started
`
`

`
` If you’re setting up an Exchange or MobileMe account, tap the items you want to
`sync—mail, contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only). For Exchange
`accounts, you can also set how many days of email you want to sync to iPhone. Then
`tap Save.
`Important: If you sync contacts or calendars using your Exchange or MobileMe
`account, syncing for contacts or calendars in iTunes is turned off. Any contact or
`calendar information on iPhone is replaced by the contacts and calendars from your
`Exchange or MobileMe account.
`
`Push Accounts
`MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, and Yahoo! Mail are known as “push” accounts. When
`new information is available, such as the arrival of an email message, the information
`is automatically delivered (pushed) to iPhone. (In contrast, “fetch” services require your
`email software to periodically check with your service provider to see if new messages
`have arrived, and then request them to be delivered.) MobileMe and Exchange also
`use push to sync your contacts, calendars, and bookmarks (MobileMe only) if you have
`those items selected in the account settings.
`
`Synced information is transferred automatically over your wireless connection; you
`don’t need to connect iPhone to your computer to sync. If you don’t have a cellular
`connection, iPhone can receive pushed data over a Wi-Fi connection when iPhone is
`awake (the screen is on, or iPhone is connected to your computer or a power adapter).
`
`Installing Configuration Profiles
`If you’re in an enterprise environment, you may be able to set up accounts and
`other items on iPhone by installing a configuration profile. Configuration profiles
`provide a way for system administrators to quickly set up your iPhone to work with
`the information systems at your company, school, or organization. For example, a
`configuration profile might set up your iPhone to access the Microsoft Exchange
`servers at work, enabling iPhone to access your Exchange email, calendars, and
`contacts.
`
`Configuration profiles can configure multiple settings on iPhone all at once. For
`example, a configuration profile can set up your Microsoft Exchange account, VPN
`account, and certificates for secure access to your company’s network and information.
`A configuration profile may turn on the Passcode Lock, requiring you to create and
`enter a passcode for using iPhone.
`
`Your system administrator may distribute configuration profiles by email or by putting
`them on a secure webpage.
`
`
`

`
`Install a configuration profile:
` Using iPhone, open the email message or download the configuration profile from the
`website provided by your system administrator.
` When the configuration profile opens, tap Install.
` Enter passwords and other information as requested.
`
`Important: You may be asked to verify that the configuration profile is trusted. If in
`doubt, consult your system administrator before installing a configuration profile.
`
`Settings provided by a configuration profile cannot be altered. If you want to change
`these settings, you must first remove the configuration profile or install an updated
`configuration profile.
`Remove a profile: In Settings, choose General > Profile, then select the configuration
`profile and tap Remove.
`Removing a configuration profile deletes the settings and all other information
`installed by the configuration profile from iPhone.
`
`Disconnecting iPhone from Your Computer
`Unless iPhone is syncing with your computer, you can disconnect it from your
`computer at any time.
`
`When iPhone is syncing with your computer, iPhone shows “Sync in progress.” If you
`disconnect iPhone before it finishes syncing, some data may not get transferred. When
`iPhone finishes syncing, iTunes shows “iPhone sync is complete.”
`Cancel a sync: Drag the slider on iPhone.
`
`If you get a call during a sync, the sync is canceled automatically and you can unplug
`iPhone to answer the call. Connect iPhone after the call to finish syncing.
