[MacTUG] iPad 2 iOS 5, email/calendar issue with exchange

[Trevor Bain]

We've set up an iPad 2 from scratch on iOS 5 successfully using the Exchange setting.

Make sure you put the domain on the first setup screen (ads). And, when you click/touch "Next" you may do a double-take thinking it hasn't worked but it's actually come back with all of the same entries but added (sneaked in) a new field for the server name that you must now enter (connect.uwaterloo.ca). Click/Touch "Next" and you should be on your way (with check marks down the side on the iPad to indicate success). Not sure if this is the problem you're running into - I took a couple of runs at it (cursing complex passwords and a keypad without a number/char row) before I realized the new field was there.

Subject: [MacTUG] iPad 2 iOS 5, email/calendar issue with exchange

I am having problems setting up their new iPad 2, with iOS 5 to connect to our exchange server as an "Microsoft Exchange" server. It works fine if I choose "Other", but not "Exchange".
Under iOS 4, this wasn't a problem. It also isn't a problem if one has their email setup under iOS4, and then upgrades to iOS5

Has anyone yet setup a fresh ipad/iphone/ipod touch using the "Microsoft Exchange" account option under iOS 5?

Any tricks/suggestions?

Note: This is being done from off campus, if anyone thinks that might matter.
