how do i get iOS updates for my ipad?  I never received an automatic update for it.

The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
    To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

  • How can i get iOS 6 on my iPad, how can i get iOS 6 on my iPad

    i need help to get iOS 6 on my iPad

    As Niel said, if it's a first generation iPad, you cannot update it past iOS 5.1.1.
    But if Facebook still offers their old app for that old iOS, here is how to get it:

  • How can I get ios 6 om my iPad 3 ?

    Do I have to download it or to take my device to apple store?

    You have to wait until the fall when Apple releases it to the public first of all. Then when they do, if you are running iOS 5 now, you can update over the air in the settings on the iPad.
    But first things first.

  • How do I get calendars on my iMac, iPad and iPhone to sync automatically over wifi?

    How do I configure my imac, ipad2 iphone 4s and my wife's ipad2 so that the calendars on all of them will sync automatically?  I would like to have them all update whenever a change is made on any one without having to connect each to the imac and syncing calendars using itunes.  Thanks, Bruce

    That is what iCloud does.
    You need to be logged into the same iCloud account on each device, you also need to have calendar syncing enabled on each device in your iCloud settings. Once you have done this, your calendars should sync as you require.

  • How do I get iOS 5 upgrade for my iPad?

    How do I get iOS 5 upgrade for my iPad?

    Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS release supported by the device’s hardware.
    The third generation iPod touch and original iPad can’t be updated past 5.1.1.

  • I never updated my iphone to IOS 6.1.4 and now I can't update to IOS 7, how can I get IOS 7?

    I never got round to updating my iPhone 5 to IOS 6.1.4 (I think that's it!) and now I can't update to IOS 7!
    How do I get around this?
    Thank you!

    Why can't you update?
    There should be nothing preventing the update from 6.1.3 or 6.1.2 or even from 5 directly to 7.
    What happens when you try to update?
    Have you tried to Update through a computer running the most up top date version of iTunes?
    Tell us a little more about what is happening and we may be able to provide more specific answers.

    You can only due an OTA update if your on IOS 5 or higher.  If not connect your phone with itunes and itunes should read that your phone needs to be updated.  suggest doing a backup of your phone prior to updating.

  • How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0?

    How do I get twitter installed on my iPad when it does not have iOS 5.0? How can I upgrade my iPad?

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    How to install iOS 6

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • How can i get iCloud on my iPhone 3g it doesn't have software update or any graphics plz help

    please help how can i get graphics and sftware download on my iphone i have no update on my ph either

    If you have a 3G you can't use iCloud as iCloud requires iOS 5 or higher and the 3G cannot be updated beyond iOS 4.2.1. 
    If you have a 3GS, update it to iOS 6 by connecting it to iTunes.  If you aren't prompted to update, go to the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings and click Check for Update.  After updating you can set it up as shown here: http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/ios.html.
