This guide should have you jailbroken in 5 minutes flat. It’s pretty easy to do.

Browse to http://www.spiritjb.com/, and scroll down to the “Download” header. Click whatever Operating System you are using.

This will download a zip file. Unzip it, so that you can see the application.
For ease of use, we put it right on our desktop.

The application will open a window like this. Go ahead and plug in your iPad when it says “Please connect device”.

Once Spirit detects your iPad, the message will below the “Jailbreak” button will change to “Read: iPad (3.2) connected.”

Go ahead and press the “Jailbreak” button. It finished in about 5 seconds. As soon as it was done, my iPad automatically rebooted.

You will see a psychedelic screen with a loading bar in the middle as your iPad boots up.

Once it loads, look for the Cydia Icon. If you see this icon, success!
