1st gen ipad work with icloud auto page sync?

understand it takes mtn lion OS to make it work. but before updating from lion, would icloud even recognize my old ipad?
related ques before updating: would icloud put wife's 2 macs in touch?

You can sync any of your Macs with iCloud if they are running Lion OS X 10.7.4 or higher.  You don't need Mountain Lion, although ML provides a higher level of iCloud integration (http://www.apple.com/osx/whats-new/).  This guide shows how to set this up: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/mac.html.
You can set up iCloud with any iOS device running iOS 5 or higher, including all iPads.  If you have an iPad 1, update it to iOS 5.1.1, then set up iCloud as shown here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.

  • 1st Gen iPad problems with Pages

    I have a 1st Gen iPad and have the Pages app, but now that the new Pages app has been issued for iOS7 I can no longer open docs from the cloud in the older app. I saved the docs from my mac as a pages09 file and still can't get them to open. What now?

    I spent about 4+ hours with Tech Support on this issue.  There is no luck according to their Senior Technician. He spend time rummaging over the internet offering me solutions with 3rd party apps to get 'iCloud" back with pages, but none of them worked with an "Offline" mode.  This was a big hinderance on myself as well. I am a Tech Writer and had a lot of documents that I needed to send to my Editor...he uses Pages as well...  Once I edited my documents in the New Pages, he couldn't opened them...this is not good.  I know newspapers all around are probably feeling this burn right now.
    I have found a solution however, but it requires a previous purchase.  I bought Pages 09 back on 10.6.3 Snow Leopard long before the Mac App Store was opened to Snow Leopard 10.6.8  What I did what continue using that program, denying the update to Pages in OSX Mavericks.  Still though with all the documents I had to open each individual one and resave them as .DOC format then reimport them into iCloud after cleaning out the /Library/Mobile Documents/Pages section.
    Now as I am a Tech Writer, I do NOT expect the average user to figure this out or even need to figure this out, this was an unacceptable move by Apple and after looking at the specs, there is NOTHING that would prevent them from making Pages 10 Backwardscompatible for Pages 09 users or add Pages 10 support to iPad.  Since they ONLY allow it to run on iOS7 Devices, kind forces you to run out an buy a new iPad2 or higher.... since I am quite confortable with my 1st Generation, I will continue using Pages 09'  and if worst comes to worse, I will roll back to Mountain Lion,  there was no update feature on that one and never did it bother me about upgrading Pages 09....

  • WILL THE 1st GEN DOCK WORK WITH 2nd GEN NANO?

    as the title states.... i think it will, but if anyone knows or has a logical idea, let me know. thanks.

    The 2nd Gen Nano does only work with Apples universal dock.
    For this product, you will find an adapter.
    If you (like me) have purchased a Nano (1st Gen) dock - aka the small dock without audio/video/ir - then the 2nd Gen Nano does NOT fit in. The connector is slightly shifted and due to the round edges, you cannot insert it.
    kind regards

    Hello all!
    Sorry if I've asked this before, but not much response the last time, just like to ask if anyone has the 1st gen USB Soundsticks that works with the Intel Mac mini?
    Thanks and cheers

    Hi.
    I have Soundstick (USB). It does not work with my G5 and Intel MacBook Pro, just let you know. I am trying to find resolution. If you know any, please let me know.

  • Can you use a 1st gen apple tv with iCloud tv programs?

    I have a number of purchased tv programs from iTunes. I click "check for downloads" on a 1st gen apple tv but it doesn't find any of these programs.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Purchased content is re-downloadable from a special purchased section which is not available on the first generation Apple TV. The "Check for downloads" option is only for downloading purchases that have been made on the Apple TV itself.

  • Is the new Pages iOS 5 app compatible with 1st gen iPad?

    Hello, I should point out that I have upgraded my iPad software to the new iOS 5 version.  I just saw in the Apps store since the new Pages update a few days ago, that some people are complaining about incompatibility for the 1st gen iPad.  Any truth to that before I purchase?
    Thanks!
    -Jack

    Hello All,
    Guess what?  Yes indeed the newly updated Pages works perfectly with the 1st gen iPad like what I've got.  And documents do, in fact, work in either portrait or landscape mode automatcially as you turn your iPad.  Apparently, you should first update to the new iOS5 before you install the new Pages. 
    Thought I'd throw that out,
    -Jack 
    P.S.  Pages is fantastic on the iPad and especially when it's hooked up with the Apple wireless keyboard.

  • Trouble with loading videos - Manually manage music and videos not supported now with iOS5 and a 1st gen iPad?

    Since updating my iPad 1st gen to iOS5.0.1 videos don't get loaded properly into the Videos app.
    On the Summary page in iTunes of my docked iPad, I have always checked the box for "Manually manage music and videos".
    I have my reasons for doing it this way, but that's for another thread perhaps.
    The problem is that when I load a video to my iPad this way - by simply just dragging it from the desktop and onto the iPad, under Devices in iTunes - it copies/updates, and shows up on the iPad like it always has before iOS5. But now, with iOS5, when I undock, it can't be found anywhere within the Videos app on the iPad. The only way I can find it is to do a Search, which seems to find it, but when I click it, a different video plays - the first video in the Movies list in the Video app. Dock the iPad again, yes the video is there, according to iTunes, but no way to play it once iPad is undocked.
    My suspicion is that with iOS5 you are no longer able to use the "Manually manage music and videos (Mmm&v)" that you will be forced to run everything through iTunes - and probably iCloud. I've unchecked the Mmm&v box, and get prompted with "Are you sure? - All existing content on the iPad will be replaced with content from your iTunes library". READ - "Rebuild your entire video and music collection, and this time run it all through iTunes. Welcome to iOS5. Have a nice day or two wasting your time rebuilding your entire video and music collection. Don't fight it. Use iTunes for everything! Until we finally make iTunes a decent piece of digital media management software, then you'll have to do it all again."
    Okay, rant over - Anyone out there with running iOS5 on a 1st gen iPad with the Mmm&v option checked and able to load a video manually (not through iTunes)? Any other thoughts?
    Thanks

    Yea, i managed to fix my issue in a wild fashion way But I DONT suggest it to anyone.
    I like to hear why it happened after upgrading iTunes and if there is any peaceful solution.
    Bythe way, here is how i fixed it :
    1-i checked "manually manage music and videos" checkbox and clicked on "Sync" button
    2-It showed a threating message that it will erase my music and videos ,......
    3-I clicked on OK button and let iTunes do any thing she said , but the second it started to delete my treasures from my iphone, i disconnected my phone by pulling USB cable.
    Now i have my musics and videos untouched and got that Option enabled again and i can manage my Music/Videos and Books manually.

  • Using 1 password with 1st gen iPad. How?

    can't fine 1password 3 for 1st gen ipad. Itunes store only has ver 4 which will only work with IOS 6 and my aging Ipad won't work with IOS 6. Being abandoned with a 2 year old product is no fun. Thanks, Jerry

    If the version that you want to use is no longer available, there is nothing that you can do about it.
    I'm not familiar with the app, but if the developer updated it to work with iOS 6 only, then there is nothing that you or Apple can do about it. It would be up to the developer to make sure that the app will work in a lesser iOS.
    If this is the app that you want, unfortunately, it only works in iOS 6.

  • HT204053 My husband and I both have iPhones but we only have one iPad. We use the same apple ID because we also share the same email address. How would this work with iCloud because we don't share the same contacts?  Thanks Elainecontacts

    My husband and I both have an iPhone and we share an iPad. We also share the same email address so how would this work with iCloud because we don't share all the same contacts?
    Thanks

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user.  That user can have all his/her devices synced with the same Apple data (email, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc.) .  When two people use the same account, then problems usually occur when one user edits data that the other user doesn't want changed on their device.  You can continue sharing the same ID for the itunes account in order to share the purchased music, apps, etc.  itunes accounts and icloud accounts are different.
    It's by far better that each user has his/her own icloud account.

  • My 1st gen iPad is not recognized in iTunes, help!  I have uninstalled, reinstalled, stoped and started the mobile....nothing is working.

    I have done everything I can find online to solve my problem, but I still have the same problem.  My 1st gen iPad is not recognized in iTunes!  Cannot sync!  Please, any suggestions from anyone?  Anyone else having the same problem?

    Hello casinojen,
    I would be concerned as well if my iPad was not recognized by iTunes.  Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue.  I found an article with a few more steps you can take (you can skip the steps you have already taken):

  • Will my first gen macbook work with ipad 2's face time?

    will my first gen macbook work with ipad 2's face time?

    As an update, I bought the WNDR3400v2 router and am supremely disappointed with its lack of power - but - the Lenovo W510 DOES work perfectly fine connecting to both the 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz radios.
    The problem is the signal strength only twenty feet away up one floor is dismal (as compared to what it was with the ancient Linksys WRT54G for example).
    What bothers me is that Netgear goes to great lengths to hide the power output of the radio so I 'suspect' that it is anemic and I don't (yet anyway) suspect the radio on the W510 laptop. Netgear support would only tell me the EIRP at 2.4GHz is 20dBm, and at 5GHz it's double that. So I can only assume the power output from that. If I assume a 5dBi antenna gain for both frequencies, that results in a power output guesstimate of 15dBm (32mW) at 2.4GHz and double that at, i.e., 18dBm or 64mW, at 5GHz.
    The other side of the equation, of course, is the power & gain of the W510 radio & antenna.
    Do we have specs for the W510 power output & antenna gain (e.g., a typical laptop is about 50mW (roughly 15 to 18 dBm)  pushed into an antenna with a gain of about 1/2 dBi to about 1 dBi at best, regardless of what the specification sheet intimates)?

  • HT5457 New app upgrades put 1st gen Ipad users out in the cold - Recently DirecTV and The Blaze both upgraded their ipad apps so that only ios 6 and above were compatible - anyone who has a 1st gen ipad cannot upgrade to ios 6  - what is up with this Appl

    So 1st gen ipad users are basiclly left out in the cold unless they go out an buy a new IPad - of course DTV and The Blaze are blaming Apple and Apple is blaming them - what is the deal Apple -  I pay for my subscription to The Blaze in order to have it on my IPad and now I can't even use it - same with DTV - so is Apple now forcing people to buy upgraded devices thru their apps that will no longer support the older generations - what a joke this is and bad business.

    Unfortunately software always moves faster than hardware.
    Apple's not going to change things. You can try talking to those two app developers and have them make their older versions available.
    Beyond that, if you wish to express yourself directly to Apple, http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    This is just a user to user forum, so there's nothing anyone here can do for you I'm afraid.

    my apple tv (1st gen) has worked fine for a year/ All of a sudden it has stopped displaying any movies or tv. It only displays my movies or my tv that has been previously down loaded. however it appears connected wirelessly with good signal strength. Have tired swithing off both router and apple TV. Any ideas?

    This is a known, ans ongoing issue. Rest assured you're not the only one affected. There are several threads here already discussing this, I suggest searhing them out if you want more details, and possible work-arounds for locally hosted content.

  • What can I do with airplay and 1st gen iPad?

    I just set up my new 2nd gen atv.  I have a 1st gen iPad.  Besides using it for movies, photos. what else can I do with Airplay. I've seen posts about using it for games such as racing but I looked at a couple of racing games I have and don't see how to send it to my tv like a movie.  Any help is much appreciated!

    Websites and third party Apps need enabling before they will allow AirPlay of Video content. Some Website/App developers have not enabled their products, some simply haven't got around to it yet, others have stated that they won't be enabling AirPlay (likely as a result of licensing issues).
    I have created a User Tip to list Apps that have been tested with Video Airplay, if you have any Apps that you have tested please leave details in the comments at the bottom of the User Tip or email me if you don't have commenting privileges.

  • Why doesn't Nike+ work with the 1st Gen Ipod touch with 2.1 software?

    Why doesn't Nike+ work with the 1st Gen Ipod Touch with 2.1 software?

    The second gen iPod Touch has firmware version 2.1.1(5F138) whereas the 1st Gen only allows 2.1 (5F137). Don't know if that has anything to do with it, but it's likely.
    Why doesn't Apple allow those with the Nike+iPod sports kit to use their external sensor on the 1st Gen iPod Touch?!?! I can't see why the sensor would be incompatible with the right firmware upgrade!!
