Does iOS 6 work with first generation iPad?

New here. Please forgive me if this is the wrong place or the wrong way to go about it:)
Does iOs 6 work on first generation iPad? If so, how do I get it installed?
Thanks so much in advance.
Jamie:)

No.
iOS 5.1.1 is the highest OS your iPad can go.

Does "find my iPad" work on first generation iPads?

Does "find my ipad" work on first generation iPads?

The Find My iPad app is for tracking from the device you install it on. It's not necessary to install it on a device you want to track. To set up your iPad to itself be tracked, you just set up Find My iPhone/iPad in the iCloud settings.

You're correct. The ipad 1 will receive no further iOS updates than what you have, 5.1.1

Ios updates to first generation iPad ? Is 5.1.1 the end of the line ??

That's not so good! I found 5.1 was fairly stable but since upgrading to 5.1.1, Safari crashes frequently and it totally refuses to read some PDF's that have been readable in iBooks previously.
My local Apple Store said the problem was that my IPad (2 years old) is obsolete and I should buy a new one!
I know people have complained about IOS6 because of the mapping - but I would welcome anything that made it crash less!
Maybe related but I used to charge the battery every three days (I just use it for email & web in the evenings). Since the upgrade, I have to charge every day. 3 hours use tonight and it's down to 20%.
I've completely disabled iCloud (again a shame because I really liked the syncing with my iPhone4s) and the only two apps that are ever active are Safari & Email.
Any ideas? Should I just accept defeat, eBay this one and buy a new one?

See the chart below to determine whether you can upgrade your device and what you can upgrade to. If you do not have a Software Update option present on your iDevice, then you are trying to upgrade to iOS 5 or higher. You will have to connect your device to your computer and open iTunes in order to upgrade.

Home video not appearing in Videos/Movies after syncing with first generation iPad.

Why is my home video in Shared Libraries but not Movies after syncing with first generation iPad? It appears in Movies on iPad2 and iPad3. I've already changed Media Kind to "Movie." I didn't have this problem 1 month ago when syncing a new video. Is there a software update issue? iPad says software is up-to-date.

The video app has 4 tabs across the top. If they are not hiding in one of the tabs, i suspect they are missing the type identifier and the app doesnt know where to show them. Glas that at least you can find them.
Next time you sync, take a look in i tunes, and see if they are fully labeled there. I would not be surprised if one the i tunes fields is the key for the pad video app to know which tab to put the, under.

Is it possible to find a version of garageband to work on first generation ipad?

Purchased a first generation iPad.Downloaded garage band from iTunes app store but not compatible. Would be happy if there was a version I could use.

Download the app to iTunes on your computer, or another ddevice that has ios8, then open the purchased section of the App Store on your iPad and you will be asked to download an older version.

Will iCloud work with first generation Apple TV?

I noticed on iTunes that iCloud works with Apple TV using software 4.3.3. My first generation unit says it is up to date with its software, 3.0.1. Does this mean I won't be able to use iCloud with my existing Apple TV?

So what do we do, just run to the Apple Store and buy a new "second" generation Apple TV to take advantage of iCloud and all these new wonderful features? iShould have learned when I early adopted a Bluray player.
- OS X Lion $29
- Apple TV $99

I have a camera that does not work with apple or IPad any way to make it work?

Is there any app or program that get the camera to down load to IPad or apple computer? It works with Linux or window.

Well, they have a website, but here is a link to their information about unlocking iPhones.

You may not qualify for an unlock though.

I bought an Airport Express from a supplier who told me I'd need at least iOS 5.4 on my iPad. My first generation iPad is apparently up to date but the iOS is only 5.1.1. Before I unpack the device I want to know whether it will work with this earlier version.

Apple says that a minimum of iOS 5.0 is required. See the support document below. Look for Requirements on the left hand side of the page about half way down.
Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 5.0 or later.

Will the dock keyboard for first generation iPad work with iPad third generation?

Will the dock keyboard for first generation work with the new iPad third generation?

It should, which is based only on the fact that the connections are remaining the same (the 30 pin usb connection)
that said, the 3 is thinner and smaller than the first one, so if it's dependant on a tight fit it may not work exactly like it does on the 1.
