How do I insert a CD to the iPad 2?

I'm trying to put a cd into the iPad 2 to play a track but the slot underneath the screen won't allow me. What can I do?

iPad 2, iOS 4.3.1

I don't want to risk damaging my iPad. Can I get an external CD/DVD drive and plug it into my iPad. I just ripped all my CDs apart and they're not showing up in my iTunes library. Apple should really release a fix for this!



No, no, you have it all wrong. You have to fold the CD multiple times until it is just the right size to fit the 30 pin socket at the bottom the iPad. Keep in mind that the folding will become increasingly difficult as it gets closer to the correct size and shape.

First off, the iPad can not play CDs. Secondly, you can't hookup an external cd player to the iPad. Lastly, Click on the bookmark icon in Safari and scroll to the bottom and click on IPad user guide. When help menu opens, click on the iPad icon in the left column. From there Click on adding music and more to the iPad... Follow those directions on how to add music to the iPad.
