Sending an iMessage

iMessage 

Firstly, click on the "messages" icon.  Now click on the button that looks like a square with a pen coming in from the top right corner. This button means to compose new message.

Type danab.tamatea@icloud.com into the to: space. In the space below, write the word you used to describe your first week with an iPad.

Once you have entered in an address, you can then add this address to your contacts list. You do this by clicking on the blue contact button.  From here, you will have a number of options.  If you already have details in your contacts, then click the option "Add to Existing Contacts".  This option will add a new detail to an already existing contact.  If this is a completely new contact, then you select the option "Create New Contact.  You will be given some sections to complete eg First Name, Last Name etc.

The reason I have asked you to do this is because learning about ICT can been like learning astronomy, you only "see" what you "know". So I invite you to use this method to ask me any question you have about how to do iPad related stuff.

No question is too "silly" and I've already been stumped (thanks Ross) so if I don't know how to help you, I'll ask uncle google!

A reminder not to send sensitive information that requires security ie Kamar stuff as messages could be viewed by others who use your iPad.
