If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

How to install iOS 6

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Cheers, Tom

I have an Ipad2 and need to transfer pictures from it to my IPhoto app on my Mac computer. Can you provide me simple instructions.
Charlotte EggersTo copy photos to your computer that were taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites then see this page - if you connect the iPad to your Mac and open iPhoto then the it should recognise the iPad as a camera and allow you to copy those photos off.
To copy photos that were originally synced from a computer you will need a third-party app such as Simple Transfer which can copy them off via your wifi network. But as photos are 'optimised' when they are synced to the iPad, any that you then copy back to a computer may not be exactly the same as they originally were on your computer. -
please answer it quickly
The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

I recently installed iTunes 11.4.0 and cannot find how to view the files created by some apps on my iPhone (and iPad). There appears to be no way to view them as there was in the previous version. Also can't view screens and icon positons to manipulate them in iTunes. Any one no how to find them, or if they have been purposely removed from 11.4.0?
First, take a deep breath ... enjoy life.
Upgrade to the latest version 1.4.1. It's a free upgrade. It however will not alleviate your frustrations.
You can move a directory in Lr by clicking and dragging to a new location within the Folders panel. To create a new folder on a new drive ensure that no folders are selected (hint: click All Photographs in the Catalog panel) then click the + icon in the Folders panel. You will be presented with a dialog to choose or create a new folder.
To move selected photos to a new directory first select the images then right click the destination folder. You will be presented with several options including moving to the destination folder or creating a new folder under the destination folder.
You can also move images outside of Lr. Review these links:

Our Apple ID is ok and functioning. However, I just came on as the IT for the group and cannot find how to change the name.
Assuming you mean the personal name associated with the account, as opposed to the login (which you can change if it's not an @icloud.com. @me.com or @mac.com address) you can change this at http://appleid.appla.com . Click on 'Manage your account' and then on 'Edit' next to 'Your name' and the name currently associated with the ID.

I keep searching and cannot find how to bookmark a website in Safari on ios7
I keep searching and cannot find out how to bookmark a website in Safari on IOS 7. On 6 it was an arrow that took you to a number of
options. It appears to be gone.It's now in the "Action" menu (the icon with the arrow pointing up out of the square box). Tap that icon, then tap "Bookmark".

This update does not work. The software update shows 1 update but the iOS 7.0 does not allow download and install. It is gray.
Try a full power down reset and reboot.
Also, make sure you have WiFi enabled and are
connected to a WiFi network. iOS upgrades are
not supported over a cellular connection. -
Just purchased Quicktime Pro 7 and cannot find how to get it to work
I was given a registration code and told to "enter the name and registration code exactly as it appears into the Register pane of the QuickTime preference dialog box"
The problem is: I cannot find the registration pane of the quicktime preference dialog box.
Help??????QuickTime Pro is not a separate application, so there's nothing to "run" other than QuickTime Player. A Pro key just unlocks the extra features of QuickTime Player and the QuickTime browser plugin. If the Pro labels have gone from the menu items in QuickTime Player, then your key is correctly registered and you should be good to go.
If you continue to have problems, please start your own topic, describing fully the situation and where things seem to be breaking down.

I don't want to lose all my apps but I want to upgrade my iPod. Is there any other way to upgrade it but not lose all my apps, and if so what is it?
- Update on the computer you sync with that has allthe apps and other synced media in its iTunes library.
- If on another computer
- Transfer iTunes purchases to the new computer by:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like on of those discussed here:
newer copy
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup. The iPod will be updated too.
Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music.

I have a Ipad2 and CANNOT UNLOCK IT

You have to restore the device within iTunes. You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
This will tell you how to restore
iTunes: Backing up, updating or restoring iOS software
If you cannot restore that way, you may have to use recovery mode
iPad: Unable to update or restore -
