    Title fits the situation to a tee!

    The book seems to be well done, and easy to understand, but after 30 years or so using windows and being 78 years young, I don't think my mind is ready for the change. Don't think it is for me at this point.

    You don't have to be a senior or dummy to get the best from this book!

    I don't consider myself a Senior even though I'm 64! I wanted to make sure the book would address the basic, most simple aspects of my IPad. I had gotten an IPhone and hated it for the first few weeks and finally mastered it so Dec of 2011 I bought myself an IPad thinking it would be simple since I had the IPhone down pat. NOT! I played with the IPad for a month and became more and more frustrated with it. It sat in my closet from February until December of 2012. Co-workers were extolling the virtues of their precious IPads when I admitted I hadn't even seen mine for 10 months and I should either give it away, sell it or find an IPad for Dummies book.

    Could Not Do Without It

    I am a Senior and definitely a tech "dummy". I am ok with my laptop, but only with basic functions. Same applies to using my smart phone. I only use my Kindle to read books. I don't understand how to use the other functions.I didn't need an I Pad. I bought it only because I am going away for a week long art workshop in Maine and I want to take pictures to paint. The I Pad, to me, unlike my other digital items, is non intuitive. Even though I was able to figure out the basics on my laptop and smart phone, I was totally lost with the I Pad. Thus thi book, I Pad For Senior Dummies was a perfect solution for me. So far, I've used it twice and it gives me the basics that I need to be able to use the I Pad. I certainly recommend it.
