I bought an iPad 2 for my wife and she wants to download the NY Times but it requires entering an "Apple Password"
What password are they referring too? The only password she has gets her into the iPad but not the NY Times app.
Where does she get an Apple password and just out of curiosity, why does she need one to download the NY Times?
Downloading a paid or free app from the iTunes app store requires having an iTunes account.
The Apple password is to download the app itself. To get a subscription to the NY Times, you can get it direct from the publisher (in which case you'll have a seperate username/password for the NY Times), or through iTunes. If you or your wife are already a subscriber to the print edition of the paper, you can get an iPad subscription for free.
