How can I install apps on my iPad 1

I am a new apple user, and I just got my iPad 1 this week. I found iPad 1 can only update iOS to 5.1.1, but all the apps need new iOS. I can't install any app on my iPad 1. What can I do? Is that possible to install old version of app on my iPad? How can I find the old app?

Yes you can install older versions of apps on your iPad, but you will probably have to do this using iTunes on your computer to get the new versions of the apps and then be able to choose to download the older versions on the iPad.

On your computer in iTunes, download the app from the App Store to your iTunes library.
Then, on your iPad, in the App Store, click on Purchased.
You'll see the app in the Cloud - the cloud icon will appear next to the app
Tap on the Cloud and you'll be given an option to download a version that will run on iOS 5.1.1

    how can i install silverlight an my Ipad?

    You can't.  Microsoft's Silverlight is not supported.  But check the app store, there are some alternatives.  See this discussion:

    How can i transfer apps from an ipad to a brand new ipod?

    All of your apps should be on your computer.
    Just sync them to the new device.
    You can also redownload
    Download past purchases - Apple Support
    Not all apps are compatible with both iphone/ipod and ipad.  Some are universal.

  • How can I install apps on a device that has a "for work" app installed?

    Hi, I have an iPod touch version 4.3.5 (ML1). Model is MC540C.
    It has been provided for me from work, but I can use it as I wish.
    The apps that are installed are:
    Facetime
    Music
    Photos
    Camera
    Videos
    YouTube
    Stocks
    Notes
    Weather
    Utilities
    App Store
    Game Center
    Settings
    Contacts
    iTunes
    Safari
    Maps
    Mail
    Calendar
    "one app installed by company"
    The last app is needed for when I do work. It doesn't need to run on the background. When I'm doing work, I need to input some information in that app, and sync it to my company's server.
    I would like to install some apps (free) of my choosing. But I'm coming across a hurdle...
    I choose "App Store" in Home.
    I search for a free App (for example the Google Search app by Google Inc)
    I'm taken to the app's info screen. I tap the blue "Free" button.
    The button becomes a green "Install App" button.
    I get a pop-up box saying
    Apple ID password
    [email protected]
    [password]
    How can I install apps of my choosing without having a "work app" get deleted? This work app was installed on the "[email protected]" Apple ID.
    Thank you.

    Ingo2711, when you did this:
    I logged out of my AppleID on the iPod, took it to his computer, synced it, which erased all of my apps. I installed the default apps plus one app that he bought using his account info.
    You made his computer the syncing computer.
    When you did this:
    Connected to my Mac and iTunes and tried to sync one of the apps I bought with my account. The app shows up on one of the pages before you start the sync, but once you apply the sync, it does not transfer.
    And, of cause, no restrictions set at all.
    You changed syncing computers but you can only sync apps (and some other things like photos) from only your one syncing computer.

  • How can I remove apps from my iPad

    How can I remove apps from my iPad? It does not have the little "x" option on the iPad like the iPhones.

    It works just the same as an iPhone. A long hold on an icon will cause them all to start wobbling, drag to move around or tap the X to remove.You can't remove any of the built-in apps so these won't get an X to tap.

  • HT204053 How can I syn apps to 35 iPads with one Apple ID?

    I know that Apple ID can syn apps to 10 devices only. My company is going to buy 35 iPads. How can I syn apps to them at once?

    Unfortunately there's no way to do this unless the game has a username and password that you sign in within the game format. If Apple allowed users to use different apple IDs and get the same purchase how would they ever make money?
    Each purchase made on apps is associated with the Apple ID it was purchased under... they cant' be transferred or used by another Apple ID.

  • My supervised Ipad minis won't refresh with configurator so how can I install apps?

    I have a set of 6 iPad minis, orginally set up by the company we purchased them from.  We have connected them to the macbook via a sync unit and they wont refresh in configurator.  I can't install any apps. But it all work fine for the supervised iPods set up at the same time.
    Any ideas?

    Erase All Content and Settings completely erases the iPad and returns it to the factory settings, as a new iPad out of the box.

  • Can't Install Apps on my iPad

    I just got an iPad off Craigslist.  First generation, 64 GB.  I go to the app store and can find the app I want, click on the price button, and then the button transforms to say INSTALL APP, but then it won't do anything when I press that button.  Did I buy a bum iPad or is there something else I should be doing?  I've tried with toddler apps, Netflix, nothing works.  It's connected to Wi-Fi, everything seems to be opportating normally.  The screen works fine otherwise.

    Your Tag states your Device has iOS 3...
    Update your iPad to iOS 5.1.1 (which is as far as an iPad 1 will go)
    Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...

  • How can I install whatsapp on my ipad air (wifi cellular)

    I have a ipad air. Wants to install whatsapp for chatting with friends.
    Pl confirm whether ipad air supports whatsapp and from where to download, as it is not in playstore

    First, WhatsApp decides if they want to make the app compatible with iPad, not Apple. If you have a problem with that, talk to them.
    Second, no, the iPad is not a phone so you can't regular voice calls. You can use other VOIP services like Skype.
    I'm curious, if you needed to text and make voice calls, don't you think an iPhone would have been a better choice than an iPad?
