Turn off your iPad and put it in recovery mode. Try to restore it via iTunes.

HT4623 Can I update my 1st generation iPad with the new iOS software update?
I have the first generation iPad, and It seems I am no longer able to update iOS. My applications seem to quit suddenly and my iPad seems to almost be un-usable. Safari seems to be the application that hardly ever works. Is there a solution?
You can't update your iPad past iOS 5.1.1
Many iPad 1 owners reported slow downs with iOS 5.
Under the Settings app, General category under About, how much storage capacity does your iPad have left?
You could try a hard restart or reset by holding down the sleep/on-off button and home button simultaneously.
Once the screen goes black, wait about two seconds, then let both buttons go.
See if this changes anything.
Good Luck! -

TS2634 I can only get sound through my ipad with the head phones.
I can only get sound through my ipad with the head phones. I haven't had this problem before. I upgraded about a week ago, but this is the first time the sound has been an issue. When I turn up the volume it shows that it is the volume for the headphones but I can't figure out how to adjust the volume for everything. I have rebooted.
Also try this if above doesn't work.
1. Plug and unplug my headphone jack into the iPad four times.
2. On the fourth time leave the headphone jack connected and rotate the plug clockwise, then remove and try your sound. -
Hi I have a 1st generation iPad 64Gb, my problem is when I am surfing the Internet or trying to read a magazine that I have bought and downloaded, the iPad closes down the app and the screen goes blank and then back to the home page. Any ideas?

Can someone please help with my issue listed - My ipod 4G wont go past the apple logo when I turn it on - it will stay on the apple logo for few min, then blanks out and back to the apple logo. Tried reset option/troubleshoot several times. Also wont show up on computer at all when I plug in to USB.
Any tips are very much appreciated.Place the iPod Touch into DFU mode. This will be similar to what the factory would do to install the iOS onto new iOS devices.
Placing it into DFU mode will allow you to "format" and install the current iOS for that device.
To place your iOS device into DFU mode.
First connect you iOS device to you computer.
Open iTunes if not already open
Now turn off your iOS device using the power swipe.
Press the home and sleep button on your iOS device for 10 seconds.
Release the sleep button but carry on holding down the home button. For another 10 seconds.
Your iOS device should now be on DFU. Click on restore and iTunes will download the latest iOS for your device.
Hopefully that sorts it if not, you will have to go to a service centre or call Apple Care up and get them to collect it and repair it. (replace it) Or go into an Apple Store. -
why can I not open pictures when I click on the host icon on my desktop? It just sits there, and can not open from top menu bar as well, only via itunes
Does your question involve iPhoto in some way?

Why can't I update my 1st generation ipad past iOS version 5.1.1?
My 1st generation iPad crashed all the time. I can hardly use it any longer. Someone suggested updating to a new version of iOS. My current version is 5.1.1 & it keeps saying that is the latest version. Why can't I update it??

In theory you're right that Missy8818's device will "continue work as it always has" except that more and more apps will require updates that she won't be able to do. Before long, it really won't work like it always has.
Not exactly. Just because apps have updates available, does not mean they are required. You will not be able to update apps to get the new features and looks but the version of the apps you currently have should work as they do right now even if they are no longer available in the app store. Just be sure to backup up your device and your iTunes library.
My frustration is also in the lack of options.. I have a 15 yr old Win 98 machine that I could still use if I wanted to – albeit with outdated, old, but still functioning software. Sure using these older versions I give up newer bells and whistles, but that is a compromise I CAN CHOOSE to make if I wish to hold on a little longer to my hardware. Apple offers no such choice with the Ipad. Their timeline for obsolescence is your time line. Take it or leave it.
As with your iPad, the 15 year old Windows 98 machine will not be able to update to the most current versions of the apps (programs) either, including Microsoft's own Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player. -
I was attempting to download the latest update to my ipad which was to take 2 hours so i left it alone, when I came back my ipad would not turn on, now it has the itunes icon and a plug on the front, what does this mean? And now it can't be recognized on my computer at all?
I did a restore but nothing has happened. How do I get it to come back on?You'll have to restore your iPad. With your iPad still connected to your computer, press and hold BOTH the power and home buttons at the SAME time and your iPad will restore.

Can I go back to an older version of iTunes that'll support both my iPhone 4S w/iOS6 and my 2009 MacBook running Leapord 10.5.8? I simply want everything to work the way it had been forever until recently. However, I can't imagine Apple would intentionally make their own products obsolete by rendering them useless through a software "upgrade." My MacBook is only 3 yrs old so I feel like I am simply missing 1 piece to this puzzle in order for things to start working again. I have my MacBook, iPod and iPhone 4S all set up to install updates automatically so if I need to uninstall certain updates and revert back to ones that work will that even be an option? Thanks
The only version of iTunes which will support both is version 10.6.3.

Im looking to get rid of my Dell laptop as all i use it for is updating my Ios and syncing music, pictures and such to to Iphone 5, rather than buying a newer laptop i was wondering if its possible to use my old 1st gen Ipad to sync these things to and from my phone? or will the fact that the Ios on my phone is much newer be an issue?
ThanksNot really. For some apps, it only works on iPad and can't be used on iPhone. However, for music, contacts, photos etc.. should be fine with iPad.

Can't get past the library icon when trying to attach photos
When I try to attach photos in an e-mail application (other than the mac mail program) I click "attach" then select "pictures", then the library icon appears but there is no list of the photos contained in the library. I have tried "control-click. to open this but it doesn't work. I've been using Macs since my first Classic in the late 80's but I can't figure this one. ANy help? Thanks.

There are three ways (at least) to get files from the iPhoto Window.
1. Drag and Drop: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
2. File -> Export: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
3. Show File: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.
To upload to MySpace or any site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. If you're using Gmail you can use THIS
If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
If you're using a cocoa browser like Safari, then you can drag the pic from the iPhoto Window to the attach window. Or you can create a quick media browser using Automator.
The change was made to the format of the iPhoto library because many users were inadvertently corrupting their library by browsing through it with other software or making changes in it themselves. If you're willing to risk database corruption, you can restore the older functionality simply by right clicking on the iPhoto Library and choosing 'Show Package Contents'. Then simply make an alias to the folders you require and put that alias on the desktop or where ever you want it. Be aware though, that this is a hack and not supported by Apple.
