For Handoff to work on both devices, Guillermo needs to turn on Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and sign in with the same Apple ID on his Mac and iPad. Handoff is a feature that allows users to start something on one device and then complete it on another. For example, Guillermo can start working on a Keynote presentation on his Mac and then continue annotating it on his iPad. To use Handoff, both devices must be on the same Wi-Fi network, have Bluetooth turned on, and be signed in with the same iCloud account. These are the prerequisites for Handoff to work. Turning on iCloud Drive or AirPlay is not necessary for Handoff. iCloud Drive is a cloud storage service that syncs files across devices, but it is not required for Handoff. AirPlay is a feature that streams audio and video from one device to another, but it is not related to Handoff. References: Use Handoff to transfer Keynote presentations - Apple Support, How to Set Up and Use Handoff on Your iPhone and iPad - How-To Geek

 Wi-Fi signal level, also known as Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI), is a measure of how well your device can receive the wireless signal from the router or access point. It is usually expressed in decibel-milliwatts (dBm), which is a logarithmic scale that ranges from -30 dBm (very strong signal) to -100 dBm (very weak signal). The higher the negative value, the weaker the signal.

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials1, iPhone and iPad will search for a stronger Wi-Fi network when the signal level drops below -80 dBm. This is because a weak signal can affect the performance, reliability, and security of your Wi-Fi connection. A weak signal can also drain your device’s battery faster, as it requires more power to maintain the connection.

To check the Wi-Fi signal level on your iPhone or iPad, you can use the following steps23:

• Open the Settings app on your device.
• Go to Wi-Fi.
• Under the Wi-Fi network list, locate the name of the Wi-Fi network or wireless router you want to check the signal strength for.
• Tap the information icon (i) next to the network name.
• Look for the RSSI value, which shows the signal level in dBm.

Alternatively, you can also use third-party apps that can display the Wi-Fi signal level on your device, such as Wi-Fi Sweetspots or Network Analyzer.

You can enroll up to five fingerprints on iPad Air (4th generation) using Touch ID. Touch ID is a feature that allows you to securely and conveniently unlock your iPad, authorize purchases and payments, and sign in to many third-party apps. You can add multiple fingerprints (both of your thumbs and forefingers, for example) or register multiple reads of the same finger to provide even more data from a variety of angles. References: = Apple - Support - Manuals, Set up Touch ID on iPad; iPad Air: How to set up and use Apple’s new Touch ID fingerprint sensor.

On your Mac, choose Apple menu > System Settings, click Privacy & Security in the sidebar, then click FileVault on the right. (You may need to scroll down.) Click Turn On. You might be asked to enter your password.

APFS is a file system that supports encryption at the volume level. Each volume has its own encryption key, called the Volume Encryption Key (VEK), which is stored in the APFS container metadata and protected by another key, called the Key Encryption Key (KEK). The KEK is derived from the user’s password and wrapped by a secure token, which is a feature that ensures only authorized users can access the encrypted data. According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials12, the following scenarios cause APFS volumes to generate encryption keys:

• During user creation. When a new user is created on an APFS volume, a secure token is generated for that user and a KEK is derived from the user’s password. The KEK is used to encrypt the VEK and store it in the metadata.
• During the first user’s password creation. When the first user on an APFS volume sets their password, a secure token is granted to that user and a KEK is derived from the password. The KEK is used to encrypt the VEK and store it in the metadata.
• After erase content and setting. When a user erases all content and settings on an APFS volume, the VEK and the KEK are deleted and new ones are generated. The new VEK is encrypted with the new KEK and stored in the metadata.

Your Mac uses Bluetooth to broadcast its location information after you turn on Find My when it’s offline or in sleep mode. This is part of the Find My network, which is an encrypted, anonymous network of hundreds of millions of Apple devices that can help you locate your device, even when it’s offline1. When your Mac is offline or in sleep mode, it sends out a secure Bluetooth signal that can be detected by other Apple devices nearby. These devices relay the location of your Mac to iCloud so you can view it in the Find My app2. The other options, Ultra Wideband (UWB), Emergency SOS, and Wi-Fi, are not used by your Mac to broadcast its location information in this scenario. References: 1 About the Find My network - Apple Support 2 Locate a device in Find My on Mac - Apple Support

 Focus filter is a feature in iPadOS that allows you to customize your notifications and home screen based on what you want to focus on. You can create different focus modes for different scenarios, such as work, personal, sleep, or gaming. When you enable a focus mode, you can choose which apps and people can notify you, and which home screen pages you want to see. You can also use Hide My Email with a focus mode to keep your personal email address private in the Mail app. Hide My Email lets you create unique, random email addresses that forward to your real email account, so you can send and receive emails without revealing your real email address. To use Hide My Email with a focus mode, you need to do the following:

• Create a focus mode for work in Settings > Focus. Tap the plus icon and choose Work, then customize the settings as you like. You can also set a schedule or location for your focus mode to turn on automatically.
• Subscribe to iCloud+ and enable Hide My Email in Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Hide My Email. Tap Create New Address to generate a random email address, and choose a label and a forwarding address for it. You can also create more addresses as needed.
• Open the Mail app and tap the Compose button. Tap the From field and select Hide My Email. Choose the random email address you created for work. Type your email as normal and send it. The recipient will see the random email address instead of your real one.
• When you receive an email to your random email address, you can reply using the same address. The Mail app will automatically use Hide My Email when you reply to an email that was sent to a random email address.
• To manage your random email addresses, go to Settings > Apple ID > iCloud > Hide My Email. You can deactivate, reactivate, or delete any address you created. You can also change the label, the forwarding address, or the signature for each address.

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, you can change the undo send delay setting on your iPad by going to Settings > Mail > Undo Send Delay1. This setting allows you to unsend an email within a certain time frame after you tap the send button. You can choose from Off, 10 seconds, 20 seconds, or 30 seconds. The other options, A, B, and C, are not correct because they are not the correct paths to access the undo send delay setting. General > Mail > Undo Send Delay is not a valid path in the iPad settings2. Open your mail app then open settings and select Undo Send Delay is not a valid option because the mail app does not have its own settings menu3. Settings > Mail > Accounts > Undo Send Delay is not a valid path because the Accounts section does not have an undo send delay option4. References: 1: Unsend email with Undo Send in Mail on iPad - Apple Support, Section "Delay sending emails". 2: General settings on iPad - Apple Support 3: Mail settings overview for iPad - Apple Support 4: Manage email accounts in Mail on iPad - Apple Support

Find My uses Bluetooth signals from nearby Apple devices to locate lost or missing devices, even when they’re offline. This feature is called Find My network, and it creates a secure and anonymous network of hundreds of millions of Apple devices that can help find each other. When you mark your device as lost, it sends out a secure Bluetooth beacon that can be detected by other Apple devices nearby. Those devices relay the location of your device to iCloud so you can see it on a map. Find My network respects your privacy and does not reveal any personal information or location data to anyone. Find My also uses Wi-Fi and cellular data to locate devices that are online and have Location Services enabled. References: Find My network overview - Apple Support, Locate a device in Find My on iPhone - Apple Support

 A Managed Apple ID is a type of Apple ID that is created and managed by an organization, such as a school or a business. It allows users to access Apple services, such as iCloud, iTunes U, and Apple School Manager. A Managed Apple ID has different password policies than a regular Apple ID. According to the Apple Business Manager User Guide, one of the password policies for a Managed Apple ID is that “after three incorrect attempts, the account is locked for one hour.” This means that if a user enters the wrong password three times in a row, they will not be able to sign in with their Managed Apple ID for the next 60 minutes. This policy is designed to prevent unauthorized access and protect the user’s data and privacy. References: Use Managed Apple IDs in the Apple Business Manager User Guide

Reference Mode is a display mode for professional content creation workflows, like color grading, editing, and content review, where accurate colors and consistent image quality are critical. Reference Mode enables the 12.9-inch iPad Pro with Liquid Retina XDR display to deliver reference color for popular color standards and video formats, such as BT.709, sRGB, HDR10, Dolby Vision, and more. It also disables all dynamic display adjustments for ambient surround, such as True Tone, Auto-Brightness, and Night Shift. Guillermo can use Reference Mode to match the color requirements of his workflow and ensure that his marketing materials and color grading are accurate and consistent. He can also use Reference Mode with Sidecar to use his iPad Pro as a secondary reference display for his Mac. References: Use Reference Mode on your iPad Pro, iPadOS 16: These are the new features exclusive to M1 iPads

In the Notes app, you can lock notes to protect your sensitive information. You can access your locked notes using your device passcode or a custom password. If you have multiple Notes accounts, you choose the locking method for each account (for example, your iCloud account). You can also use Face ID or Touch ID to access your locked notes, if you enable this option in the settings. To lock notes with a custom password, you need to go to Settings > Notes > Password, choose an account, and tap Use Custom Password. To lock notes with Face ID, you need to go to Settings > Notes > Password, choose an account, and turn on Face ID. To lock or unlock a note, you need to tap the More button and then tap the Lock icon.

The Files app can read and write to four storage formats on iPhone and iPad devices: MS-DOS (FAT), Mac OS Extended (HFS+), APFS, and ExFAT. These are the formats that are supported by macOS and iOS, and can be used with external storage devices such as USB flash drives, hard disks, and SD cards. The Files app cannot read or write to NTFS or ZFS formats, as they are not compatible with Apple devices. NTFS is a proprietary format used by Windows, and ZFS is a file system developed by Sun Microsystems. To use these formats, the user would need to reformat the external storage device to one of the supported formats, or use a third-party app that can access them. References: = Find files on your iPhone or iPad in the Files app - Apple Support, The Files App on Your iPhone: Everything You Need to Know - MUO, The Complete Guide to Using External Storage on iOS and iPadOS - Gizmodo, What is the (file) format of iOS/iPhone apps? - Stack Overflow, How Apple’s Files app is getting better in iOS 16 & iPadOS 16

 When you use Migration Assistant to transfer content from one Mac to another Mac, and the account names are the same on both computers, you have two options: rename or replace. Rename means that the account on your old Mac will appear as an additional user on your new Mac, with a separate login and home folder. Replace means that the account on your old Mac will replace the identically named account on your new Mac. This option will overwrite any existing data on the new Mac account. You can choose the option that suits your needs best. References: Transfer to a new Mac with Migration Assistant - Apple Support, Migration Assistant and User Names - Apple Community

To access files stored in iCloud Drive on your Windows PC, you need to download iCloud for Windows and set it up with your Apple ID1. This will allow you to view, add, or remove iCloud Drive files and folders directly on your Windows computer in File Explorer or Windows Explorer2. You can also choose a different location for your iCloud Drive files and folders on your PC2. Downloading iCloud Drive from the Windows App Store or copying the content of iCloud Drive from your Mac to an external drive are not valid options, as they will not sync your files across your devices or let you access them online345. References: 1: Set up iCloud Drive on your Windows computer - Apple Support. 2: View, add, or remove iCloud Drive files in iCloud for Windows - Apple Support. 3: [Step-by-Step] How to Sync iCloud Drive on PC? - MultCloud. 4: How to Access iCloud Drive on Windows PCs in 3 Easy Ways - MultCloud. 5: How to Access iCloud Drive Files from Windows PC - OS X Daily.

 A warning icon might appear in the Security Recommendation window for a password in Passwords settings if the password meets any of the following criteria:

• The password is reused on another website. This means that the same password is used for more than one saved password across different domains. This can make the accounts vulnerable to credential-stuffing attacks, where attackers try the same credentials on other services to compromise additional accounts1.
• The password appeared in a data leak. This means that the password has been compromised by a data breach and exposed online. This can allow attackers to access the accounts that use the leaked password or try to guess other passwords based on the leaked one1.
• It’s a commonly used password or it’s easily guessed. This means that the password is weak and may be easily cracked by an attacker. This can happen if the password uses words found in a dictionary, common character substitutions, patterns found on a keyboard, or repeated sequences. These patterns are often used to create passwords that satisfy minimum password requirements for services, but are also commonly used by attackers attempting to obtain a password using brute force1. References: 1: Password security recommendations - Apple Support

Sysdiagnose is a tool that extracts information from iOS or iPadOS devices and captures it in a log file. You can use sysdiagnose to troubleshoot general issues or report them to AppleCare. To run sysdiagnose, you can either press and hold both volume buttons and the side or top button on iPad for 1 to 1.5 seconds, or use AssistiveTouch to select Analytics from the Top Level Menu. After sysdiagnose finishes, you can find the log file in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements > Analytics Data. The log file name starts with “sysdiagnose” and includes the date and time of the capture. You can then transfer the log file to your Mac via AirDrop or USB. References: = Using Sysdiagnose to Troubleshoot iOS or iPadOS; Gathering a Sysdiagnose from an iPadOS or iOS device; Apple Device Support Exam Prep Guide, page 10.

 To start up a Mac with Apple silicon in macOS Recovery, you need to access the startup options screen first. This screen lets you choose different startup disks or modes, including macOS Recovery. To get to the startup options screen, you need to shut down your Mac completely, then press and hold the power button until you see “Loading startup options” on the screen. Then, you can click Options and click Continue to enter macOS Recovery1. The other options, pressing and holding the Shift key or Command-R, are not valid ways to start up a Mac with Apple silicon in macOS Recovery. These methods work on Intel-based Macs, but not on Macs with Apple silicon2. References: 1 Use macOS Recovery on a Mac with Apple silicon - Apple Support 2 Intro to macOS Recovery - Apple Support

 The next step in troubleshooting the app’s issue is to upgrade to the latest version of the app. This can help resolve any compatibility issues, bugs, or performance problems that the app may have with your version of macOS1. You can check for updates to your software by opening the App Store and looking at the Updates section for apps that you got from the App Store, or by visiting the app developer’s website for apps that you got from another source1. Upgrading to the latest version of the app may also provide new features or enhancements that can improve your user experience2.

Creating a new file, removing the preference file, reinstalling or upgrading macOS, or troubleshooting application preferences are not the best options for this scenario, as they may not address the root cause of the app’s issue, or they may be too drastic or time-consuming. Creating a new file may not help if the app quits regardless of the file type or content3. Removing the preference file may delete your custom settings or preferences for the app, and it may not fix the issue if the app has a problem with its code or resources4. Reinstalling or upgrading macOS may erase your data or settings, and it may not be necessary if the issue is specific to the app and not the operating system5. Troubleshooting application preferences may be useful if the app has a problem with its configuration or options, but it may not work if the app has a problem with its compatibility or functionality.

Face ID will attempt to recognize your face three times before asking for your passcode. This is to prevent unauthorized access to your device by someone who looks similar to you or has a photo of you. If Face ID fails to match your face after three attempts, you can either enter your passcode or swipe up from the bottom of the screen to try Face ID again. You can also adjust the settings for Face ID to make it more or less sensitive to variations in your appearance, such as wearing glasses, a hat, or a mask. References: Use Face ID on your iPhone or iPad Pro - Apple Support, iOS 12: How to retry Face ID after a failed attempt - 9to5Mac

To view the current activity of Apple Configurator for Mac, you can access the Activity window from the menu bar. The Activity window shows you the background tasks that Apple Configurator is performing, such as downloading software updates, preparing devices, or installing profiles. You can also pause, resume, or cancel any activity from this window1. The other options, double-clicking the device and selecting Activity, or choosing View Activity from the Apple Configurator menu, are not valid ways to access the Activity window. References: 1 View log messages and activity in Apple Configurator - Apple Support

According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, you can control who can discover your iPhone or iPad when it’s within AirDrop range by setting AirDrop to Contacts Only1. This means that only people in your Contacts app can see your device and send you content via AirDrop. You can also set AirDrop to Receiving Off, which means that no one can see your device or send you content via AirDrop1. The other two options, B and C, are not correct because they are not related to AirDrop settings. Requiring a verification code from the other device in Password & Security settings is a feature that helps you sign in to your Apple ID account on a new device2. Turning off AirDrop in Privacy settings is not possible, as AirDrop is not listed under Privacy settings3. References: 1: How to use AirDrop on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support, Section "How to adjust AirDrop settings". 2: Sign in with your Apple ID - Apple Support, Section "Use a verification code with two-factor authentication". 3: Privacy settings on iPhone - Apple Support

 According to the Apple Device Support Reference Materials, the three troubleshooting steps that you should try to resolve the issue of iPad not charging are:

• Force restart the iPad. This can help clear any software glitches that may prevent the iPad from recognizing the power source or charging properly12. The steps to force restart the iPad depend on whether it has a Home button or not1.
• Make sure that the device isn’t too hot or too cold. Extreme temperatures can affect the battery performance and charging ability of the iPad13. The iPad should be kept within the acceptable operating temperatures of 0° to 35° C (32° to 95° F)3.
• Try charging with a different power adapter and cable. The power adapter and cable may be damaged or incompatible with the iPad, causing the charging issue14. It is recommended to use the original Apple power adapter and cable that came with the iPad, or other Apple-certified accessories4.

The other two options, D and E, are not relevant or helpful for resolving the charging issue. Backing up the device and erasing all content and settings may be useful for other issues, such as storage or performance problems, but not for charging problems5. Enabling Optimized Battery Charging is a feature that helps extend the battery lifespan by reducing the time that the iPad spends fully charged. It does not affect the charging speed or ability of the iPad. References: 1: Fix issues with charging - Apple Support 2: iPad won’t charge, Try these tips to fix it - Geeky Gadgets 3: iPad not charging: 6 solutions - 9to5Mac 4: How to fix an iPad that won’t charge: 8 troubleshooting tips - Macworld 5: Erase all content and settings from iPad - Apple Support : About Optimized Battery Charging on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

Resetting the printing system on a Mac can resolve problems such as print jobs stuck in the queue, connection issues, and incomplete driver setups. This process deletes all printers from your list of printers, deletes information about all completed print jobs, and deletes all printer presets. All printers and scanners must be set up again after completing the reset. To reset the printing system, you need to control-click the printer in the Printers list on the right, then choose Reset Printing System from the shortcut menu. You will be prompted to confirm that you want to reset your entire printing system. References: Reset the printing system on your Mac to solve a problem, HP printers - Reset the printing system (macOS)

To verify that your Mac has successfully connected to the microphone, you should use the System Information app to check the USB devices connected to your Mac. The System Information app provides detailed information about your Mac hardware, software, and devices. You can access the System Information app by choosing Apple menu > About This Mac, then clicking System Report. In the System Information window, select Hardware > USB from the sidebar. You should see your microphone listed under the USB Device Tree, along with its product ID, vendor ID, speed, and other details. If you don’t see your microphone, try disconnecting and reconnecting it, or using a different USB port or cable. References: How to use System Information on your Mac - Apple Support, USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter - Apple
