Korte versie / Short version:

Click the “Home” button to arrive at the iPad’s home screen.

Click the “Settings” app icon to enter iPad settings.

Select the “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” button and click this to enter the “Mail” settings.

Click “Add Account” to add a new mail account to the iPad.

Select “Microsoft Exchange” to set up a new Exchange account.

Type in the Microsoft Exchange account information for the account being set up. This information will consist of an email address, domain (not mandatory), user name, password and a general description of the account.

Click “Mail,” “Contacts,” and/or “Calendars” depending on which features need to be synced with the Exchange account.

Lange versie / Long version:

Before You Begin

  • Install the latest version of iTunes
  • Back up your iPad
  • Make sure you are connected to a reliable and fast network (preferably Wi-Fi) before beginning.

Configuring Exchange ActiveSync on the iPad

Tap the “Settings” icon from the home screen, then “Mail, Contacts, Calendars”

In “Mail, Contacts, Calendars”, tap “Add Account…”
Tap the “Microsoft Exchange” icon
Note: This is where you come in if you tap the Mail app from the home screen with no accounts configured
Now you will enter your Exchange account information:

  1. Your full Email address
  2. You may need to enter an Exchange Domain (like “IT” or “Sales”), but this is not the place to enter the Internet domain name (like “company.com”) (see “What Domain Name Do I Enter?” below for more details)
  3. Your Exchange Username
    Note: This is usually the first part of your email address before the “@” sign (e.g. “billg”), but you may have to also enter your Exchange domain (e.g. “msexec\billg.microsoft”)
  4. Your Exchange Password
  5. You can optionally modify the Description to something other than your email address

Tap “Next” and the iPad will attempt to auto-discover and configure the Exchange account
Note: This can take up to 5 minutes on slow networks or if autodiscovery is not supported

If your Exchange server configuration does not support Autodiscovery, it will fail (saying it couldn’t validate your account), and you will have to manually enter the Server name (see “Which Server Name Do I Enter?” below for more details)

Tap “Next” and the iPad will verify the configuration
By default, the iPad will synchronize all three data types (Mail, Contacts, and Calendars) with your Exchange ActiveSync server, but you can turn one or more off if you wish
Tap “Done” and the iPad will finalize the configuration and return you to the “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” menu while your iPad communicates with the server
Note: It can take a few minutes for calendar entries and contacts to show up
