How can I return my ipad 1 to pre OS5?
how can I return my ipad 1 to pre OS5?
Ive been reading the forums all over the place to find the solution to my ipad 1 continually crashing. it does it mainly in safari and the app store.
Its really annoying when you're halfway through composing a long e-mail message and it just reverts back to the home screen.
I'm perfectly happy to give up the advantages of IOs 5, because I would rather have a stable machine (like it used to be) than use the cloud and multitasking. (I don't use them anyway). I know that some of my apps might stop working but its more important to me that the basics work.
cheers

You cannot downgrade the iOS. Once you upgrade, you're stuck with it.
Part of your problem is that your iPad is old and it probably having difficulty keeping up with the data and protocols for the newer software. It's probably time to send a note to Santa.

I Just bought iPad air on 3/10/2013. Then I saw the iPad air 2 opened. I really want to buy iPad Air 2 more than iPad air. How can I return my iPad air to ipad air2.
No.
Apple does not do or accepts trade-ins for cash toward new Apple products. Apple isn't like a car dealer.
You will have to sell your current iPad on your own and use the financial proceeds toward the purchase of a new iPad. -
Can I return my iPad in the states if I bought it at an apple store in the UAE because I wasn't aware it didn't come with FaceTime at the time?
Your only option is to sell the iPad and buy a new one.

My daughter's iPad is backing up to my iCloud, which is how we set it up originally. Now she has her own iPhone with her own iCloud. How can I get her iPad to back up to her own iCloud? Her iPad is taking up 3.4MB of my 5MB. I need my space back!

I suppose ya. If she deletes my account from her iPad it won't affect my account, right?
Yes, that's correct, it won't affect your account or your devices in any way.
Use the delete account button in the iCloud settings.
Then enter her iCloud details in the new screen that appears and log in. She should then be returned to the screen above but with her Apple ID at the top, enable the services she wishes to use and then tap the storage & backup option and ensure that iCloud backup is turned on.

How can I make my ipad work again please help
Hi I bought my iPad last year and it's been working fine. Today I was just going through the settings and it said there was a software update for IOS7 so I agreed to have it done, but I had no idea it was going to take so long (would be nice if they gave a heads up). I had to use my ipad for timely purposes so after a couple of minutes and what looked like only 2% complete, I tried to stop it and the only way was to turn off the device (no option to pause or stop!).
Now when I turned it back on it says I have to sync it to iTunes and won't go to any other screen. I synced it to iTunes (first time since I purchased it and my Cloud's memory has been full for months so I have no backup whatsoever of anything on my ipad - pictures, email etc. When I sync it up to iTunes it says that it detects a systems update in progress and I cannot continue until it is completed, would i like to continue. I thought I guess that's my only option so I said ok, but unlike when I did it wirelessly unsynced to iTunes earlier, now it is giving a warning that it will return my iPad to factory settings and erase anything I have on it when it completes installing the software!! No thank you!!!! Wish I had that warning the first time around, I have a year's worth of information stored on there that I do not want deleted.
Somebody please help, how can I get my iPad back to how it was before and stop this update nonsense ASAP??? What a way to ruin my Sunday Please help anybody who can.... Thank you. (and I don't see an option to back it up it just goes to the page to update the device in order to do anything else). Surely there must be a way!! Anybody??From your description it seems that you have to upgrade to iOS 7 now.
No one can say what state your iPad is in since you interrupted a very critical process!
It is perfectly normal that your iPad's contents are erased during the upgrade process.
All your data will be restored afterwards, if, and only if you have a recent backup of your iPad!
To restore your backup from iCloud follow these instructions:

i have an ipad and the original owner is not present and i have no way to contact the owner how can i reset the ipad to factory settings?
Tammy,
Unfortunately your iPhone is just a paper weight. Return it to the pawn shop for a refund.
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7 explains the "Buyer Beware" facts:
When purchasing an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from someone other than Apple or an authorized Apple reseller, it is up to you to ensure that the device has been erased and is no longer linked to the previous owner’s account.
Follow each of these steps to make sure that you can use the device you purchase:
Turn the device on and slide to unlock.If the passcode lock screen or the home screen appears, the device has not been erased. Ask the seller to completely erase the device by going to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been erased.
Begin the device setup process.After choosing a language, choosing a country, and connecting to a network, the device will begin activation. If you are asked for the previous owner’s Apple ID and password, the device is still linked to their account. Hand the device back to the seller and ask them to enter their password. If the previous owner is not present, they can remove the device from their account by signing in toicloud.com/find. Do not take ownership of any used iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch until it has been removed from the previous owner’s account.
You will know that a device is ready for you to use when you are asked to “Set up your iPhone", “Set up your iPad", or “Set up your iPod” during the device setup process. -
How will i return this ipad if im not anymore in canada?it has hardware problem.pls help
Send it to a friend or relative in Canada to take to Apple for service,
and then that person can send back to you when Apple is done. You
are responsible for shipping and insurance.
Apple does not accept international shipments for service nor will
Apple ship out of the country after service.
If there is an Apple store or Apple authorized service provider where
you are, try them - but be prepared for them to refuse since the iPad
was not sold at your location. -
I have one apple ID for both my Iphone 4S and Ipad. My Ipad was stolen from me and when I checked the iCloud, it can only locate the Iphone 4S. How can I locate the Ipad device?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely. -

can i return my ipad 2 on the one year warrenty.... since the ipad HD came out I want to get the money for that so will apple take my ipad 2 back for that $500........ I have every thing that came with it and it still is in a brand new condition its gonna be me a full year in 2 months
Warranties exist to ensure a product works for a specified time, not to return it for everything you paid.
.... I have every thing that came with it and it still is in a brand new condition
If it's a 64 GB 3G model then it could be worth $395 toward Apple Store credit:
http://store.apple.com/us/browse/reuse_and_recycle
but i do have problems with the battery of the ipad 2 it dies like at 20 35
Then it is not in "brand new condition" and will be worth less than $395.

Can i return my ipad wifi for a wifi 3G eventhough it's engraved?
Can i return my ipad wifi for a wifi 3G even though it's engraved?
According to Apple's customer service line you can return an engraved iPad for an exchange, but it's not clear if it's within 14 or 30 days. If you call they says 30, but their site says 14. I think it has to be purchased straight through Apple though. Contact where you bought it from and tell them you are thinking of buying a iPad and having it engraved, but are concerned about the refund policy. They'll explain it in more detail at that time.

How can I backup my iPad to another iPad backup I have on my same iCloud account. The old one is totally gone. Both backups are listed on my iCloud account. So is there any way I can backup the one I have now to the other one. I really just want the pictures that are in the old backup. I have tried resetting and erasing all settings and data on the one I still have, but when I go to restore by iCloud; it only gives me the choice of restoring the same iPad. Then in iCloud>storage>backup, I'm still not able to choose which backup to backup to. I've even tried deleting the backup to the iPad I still have, then resetting all setting and data on the iPad, hoping that in resetting up the iPad it would give me the option to backup to my old iPad. But it doesn't. It still has memory of the backup of my newer iPad.
I JUST WANT THE PICTURES!!!
Thank you!!!
iPad (3rd gen) Wi-Fi + Cellular, iOS 6.1.3, iCloud BackupYou now need to get your pictures back! The similar to you, after I updated my iPad Mini, I can't get my some files on device. I tried many ways, fortunately, I got a tool from http://tinyurl.com/Data-Recovery-iPhone to help me recover lost files easily! It supports iPhone, iPad, iPod, etc iOS devices!

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.
1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
also, there are PhoneView and iRip. -
