#DOWNLOAD APPLE CONFIGURATOR 1 MANUAL#
It is not user friendly, as it does not allow you to download the entire manual, nor can you browse the entire manual at once. The AC2 manual is linked from the iTunes store. Note that while this review is based on AC2 version 2.3, Apple recently released version 2.4, which requires the Sierra version of Mac OS. The laptop is dedicated solely to AC2 and was set up by the author, who has basic skills with Mac computers but no prior experience with Apple Configurator. Unfortunately, as further discussed in this review, AC2 is plagued with issues: it is difficult and confusing to set up, requires multiple steps, and is prone to errors.ĪC2 version 2.3 was set up on a circa 2012 MacBook Pro using the El Capitan Mac operating system (Mac OS). Apps went directly from Apple’s volume purchase program (VPP) to AC2. No additional mobile device management (MDM) tools were used. When the iPads were returned, they were erased and reimaged from the backup on the Master iPad. The iPads were “unsupervised,” which meant students could download their own apps and change settings if needed. About ninety-five free apps (in addition to preloaded Apple apps), thirty website icons, and various folders were installed using AC2 from a Master iPad backup. This review is based on the author’s experience in a library that circulated fifteen iPads to graduate students in the medical field. Such a tool can be useful for libraries that lend iPads to their users.
