iPhone 5 Superguide

Whether you've just purchased an iPhone or you're coveting one from afar, let the editors at Macworld help you learn everything you need to know about Apple's newest smartphone. 

Our iPhone Superguide 5 contains seven chapters: Get Started, Change Your Settings, Connect & Communicate, Be Productive, Multimedia, Troubleshooting Tips, and Find New Accessories.

Within these, we'll take you on a tour of the device's exterior and basic features, and walk you through how to activate a brand new iPhone. Discover how to get connected over cellular data or Wi-Fi, and how to share your connection. We'll also teach you some basic gestures for navigating through apps and home screens, downloading your first third-party app, and connecting to Apple's iCloud service. And we devote an entire chapter to customizing your settings, covering every submenu and toggle.

If it's installed apps you want to know about, our Superguide covers them all: Read our in-depth how-tos on working with your mail, navigating with Maps, surfing Safari, chatting with Messages, and more. We also offer a basic guide for syncing your device and your media with iTunes.

If you run into trouble, never fear: Macworld's own Christopher Breen authors a very special chapter on troubleshooting basic iPhone 5 problems and maladies, as well as tips on when to go to the experts.

And in case you're stumped on how to best outfit your device, we provide suggestions for great iPhone 5 cases, headphones, speakers, and more.
