MobileMe includes the Find My iPad feature (not available in all regions) that helps you locate iPad if it's been lost or stolen, and lets you remotely lock, or erase the information on iPad if necessary. If you enable Find My iPad for your MobileMe account, make sure Push is turned on for Fetch New Data. In Settings, choose "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" > Fetch New Data. If Push is off, tap to turn it on. For Exchange accounts, you can set how many days of email you want to sync to iPad. If you already have contact or calendar information on iPad when you enable the account, iPad asks what you want to do with existing information on iPad. You can merge the existing data into your MobileMe or Exchange account, keep it in a separate account on iPad (the account is labeled "On My iPad"), or delete it. Existing bookmarks can only be merged or deleted. Chapter 2 Getting Started 35
