I'm planning a long (60 days) cruise and want to take my ipad. I'm told I should sync it to my mac. Why & how do I do this?

Hello,

It is always a good idea to backup your data, in case your device fails or is lost/damaged.

Here is an Apple article that explains how to backup your iPad before your trip:
How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch

You can use your Mac, or use your iCloud account if you have one.

Let us know if that helps,

I think I missed something. I thought "sync" meant I would have all the same stuff on my ipad as I have on my mac - ie passwords bookmarks etc. How does this relate to backup?
