Can you install iPhone apps on the iPad with ios5?

We have many, many apps that are under iPhone but worked fine on the iPad. They are under purchased and say they are installing but never show up. How do I get these back?

They are not hidden via any restrictions that you've set in Settings > General > Restrictions e.g. app age ratings (and you haven't got Installing Apps set 'off' on the samerestrictions screen) ? Do they show as installed in the Purchased tab at the bottom of the App Store app ?
You could try a reset and see if they show after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Can i have iphone apps in the ipad?

    If i download an iphone's app in my ipad it will works allright?

    Most iPhone apps will work ok, but there are some apps which are iPhone-only (e.g. they require full phone capability) which you won't be able to download or sync to an iPad. Otherwise they will work, but apps which are only designed for the smaller iPhone screen will only take up an iPhone-sized portion of the iPad's screen, though you should get a '2x' button on the screen which will effectively double the size of each pixel in both directions (so therefore may appear pixelated).

    As Johnathan has written yes apps for iPhone will work in the iPad, however there is a '+' mark on the icon you touch or click for download which indicates both iPhone AND iPad apps. Those apps will display perfectly for the iPad.

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.

  • How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1?

    How do you get multiple screens on the iPad with iOS 5.1.1? We just upgraded to iOS 5.1.1, and we see no way to be able to open multiple screens at once. Before, there was a small button in the upper portion of any window. That button would take you from a particular window to the place where multiple windows are open at once. Does it do it differently? Is there a special setting button that we have missed? Thanks!
    One more thing: We are only talking about Safari.

    Guitaristica-
    I don't think I've seen a way to have separate Safari screens visible at the same time.  The small thumbnails were deleted in one of the iOS updates, and replaced with a multiple "Tab" system.
    You can open an additional screen in a new "tab" by pressing and holding on a link until a new menu comes up.

  • TS1702 How do you uninstall an app from the IPad? I can find no uninstall feature in settings.

    How do you uninstall an app from an iPad. I cannot find any uninstall feature in settings and no help feature.

    Press on the app and hold until the apps begin to wiggle. Tap on the circled "x" that appears in the upper left corner.
    If you sync with iTunes, then connect the device to your computer and open iTunes. Select the Apps option under the Library heading. Locate the app, select it, then press the Delete key. This removes it completely.

  • I can't install any apps in my iPad a1219

    I have purchase iPad A1219 but I can't install any apps from iTunes. It always says iOS update required even I already have 5.1.1.  Could anyone help me how can I solve this problem.

    You have an iPad 1 which can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. If the Apps in question require iOS 6 or later you won't be able to install them.
