Apple tries to resuscitate iPad sales with new ad campaign

Apple needs help generating more demand for its tablet. A new series of ads aims to convince people why the iPad is still worth buying.

With Apple tablet sales dwindling, the company is hoping a new series of iPad ads will draw in more buyers.

Dubbed “Everything changes with iPad,” the new ad campaign attempts to explore the many ways that people can use the tablet. Displayed onApple’s website, a 90-second video shows adults and children alike using the iPad to learn to prepare a meal, chat with family members, design a floorplan and snap photos of loved ones. The site then segues into individual pages that tell you how to cook, learn, and travel with the iPad, among other tasks.
