Hi Adrien These things are quite daunting to start with, most of us will testify to that. But it will get easier as you go along, and remember we are here to help if you are stuck. You can go into Settings, General, Accessibility and VoiceOver to customise things as well when you feel a bit more adventurous.

Open App Store and choose Search. Here, you can type in something like Skype, Radio, or basically whatever you are looking for. It does help if you know the name of the app you want in order to narrow your search and stand a better chance of finding the right one. Once you think you have the app of your choice, double-tap the button that says the price, then double-tap again to purchase it. On the Apple Bluetooth keyboard, you need to activate a double-tap by pressing the space-bar with the VO keys. These two keys are the second and third keys in from the left on the bottom row where the space-bar is situated. You will be asked for your ID, so you need to put in your Email address and password at this point. If you achieve all this successfully, you will find the app added to your device when you leave the App Store, so double-tap to open it as you would any other. If you need any more help, just let us know.

Mum had to help me set-up the keyboard as all the codes were in the leaflets. What do I do next? I have had a brief look at the applevis site, there are loads but for now I want to concentrate on getting important things set-up. Can someone please direct me? I have had a look at itunes and have registered but don't know how to proceed. I have also up-dated the firmware on the ipad because when I got it yesterday, itunes told me there was an up-date and suggested I up-date. I thought I may as well get it out the way.
