Changing iTunes account on iPad 2

Question

Changing iTunes account on iPad 2

To unblock my new iPad 2, the IT guy from work entered his iTunes account details. This was because I couldn't get iTunes to work properly on Windows 7 Home Premium (I still can't - it keeps giving error 9808).

I now want open an iTunes account in my name on my iPad 2, but it keeps asking me for other other guy's password. I have an iPad 2 general user's account with correct details and password, but it doesn't show on iTunes.

How can I cancel the old account and enter the correct details?

Tap on the currently logged in id in Settings > Store and then log in with your account. If he downloaded any content to your iPad then that content will be tied to his account

Thankyouthankyouthankyou! I'm not quite "into" the touch screen yet. This has been driving me crazy! I still have a problem with iTunes on Windows7, but at least I can now download apps on the iPad.
