The Best Buy stores in my town have the Microsoft Office for iPad in stock. I don't know about Photoshop. Go to the Apple App Store and type in a search for it. The iPad WILL print to most current printers which are WiFi/Bluetooth compatible. You will have to pair the iPad with the printer -- easy-peasy! If you don't know how to do this you can get Best Buy's "Geek Squad" for help in setting things up for you in your home. Yes, you can certainly send and receive emails if you have access to the web via WiFi through some sort of internet service provider (ISP) using a modem and router. I would suggest you set up a WiFi system in your home through whatever provider you have access to. I do this thru my Cable TV provider Charter. Of course once you have a WiFi system in your home you can also search the web with the iPad. What you CAN'T do is surf the web, send/receive emails on your iPad if you are trying to use it in a location where there is no WiFi "Hotspot" connection UNLESS you get a personal portable hotspot device from your wireless phone service carrier -- i.e. Verizon Wireless, AT&T, Sprint, etc. This device is a small portable "box" which you connect wirelessly to your iPad by "pairing" the two devices so they can communicate with each other. OR..if you have a "smart phone" you can use it as a WiFi hotspot (for a fee) to pair with your iPad. The iPad can do many of the same functions that a laptop or desktop does, however for some functions it is a little more limited than a laptop/desktop. I highly recommend a bluetooth keyboard case for the iPad if you are going to do a lot of text entry and "typing" on it since the touch screen virtual "keyboard" is not so great for writing using such apps as Microsoft Office and for creating manuscripts, writing lots of text messages, emails, etc. Lots of people do it, but I much prefer using a keyboard for extensive text entry, The iPad Air 2 WiFi is a great device. With 128 GB of storage you will be able to store lots of files, pictures, music and such on it. You will enjoy it. I suggest you speak with the knowledgeable sales folks at Best Buy. They will be able to answer all your questions and talk you through the process. Good Luck!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It can do much of what can be done on a desktop, though not everything. Office and Photoshop-type programs are available, but you'll need to buy the app versions or subscribe to Office 365 to get full use out of them. Network printers (Wifi or ethernet) can be used to print from the iPad in most cases. Yes it can search the web and send/receive email.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.All software you can find in App Store including Microsoft Office and Photoshop, there's also a big variety of alternatives. Yes, it can print to printers which are connected to the same wi-fi. And of course you can receive and send emails via Mail app, and search the web via safari (standard browser) or whichever browser you like and found on App Store.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can run many software in form of apps. Like for example Microsoft office is one of the many apps you can find. You can print on any wireless printer. I print on my HP wireless printer and set up is very easy. Also, you can receive and send emails. I manage 3 different email accounts from my iPad. And yes, you can surf the web too.
