How do i install iOS. 5 on my iPad 2, How do i install iOS. 5 on my iPad 2

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.

Note, this will upgrade the iPad 2 to 6.1.2.

I am member of creative cloud, so how to install Photoshop touch on iOS iPad 4 & not pay $9.99?

I am a new member of the creative cloud and I have had no issues installing the creative cloud applications on my desktop (mac and PC), however my question regards installing the Photoshop touch app on the iOS iPad 4 device without having to pony up the $9.99 iTunes app fee.
http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/adobe-photoshop-touch/id495716481?ls=1&mt=8
The above URL is the path that the Adobe website provides to download the app, and I can successfully access via iOS iPad 4. However it appears that I need to purchase the app for $9.99. It is not clear how I can use my yearly creative cloud membership to avoid paying the app fee.
Please advise if I am not looking in the correct place, or if I need to login via my Adobe ID to bypass this iTunes cost.
I could not locate an installation guideline on the Adobe website, so please advise.

Yup, clear now.
I do like Adobe apps, but the price tends to be on the high side. I am a bit disapointed that the touch are not available via the cloud subscription, so I will stick with the desktop versions instead as they are more robust anyway.
I see that Adobe has removed this statement under the plans, when the link is clicked, so I am certain I will not be the only person to be confused regarding what is included.
Thanks for the follow-up, this was very helpful.

I updated to new ios and now it is not syncing properly. New songs are not showing up on the ipod display but when I view the device on my computer, they are in the playlist but there is a dashed circle beside the missing songs. It previously synced perfectly before the IOS update. How can i revert back to the previous installed version?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported by Apple.

I need to install an App that will work with my iOS. How do I get an earlier App that is not now in the App Store?

I have an iPod Touch that can only run iOS 3.1.3. I have had Zinio & PressReader (both free Apps) installed on it for many years, and subscribe to a number of Magazines and Newspapers. I had backed up the iPod in September 2012. Today, I had to restore the iOS from the backup, but saw that Zinio and PressReader had not been installed. I am aware that the iTunes store explains that the latest versions are for iOS 4.3, but I need the latest version that will work with my iPod on iOS 3.1.3.
Does anyone know how I can get hold of the earlier versions of the "ipa" files, short of asking the publishers themselves?
And, should I expect the Publishers to release the appropriate ipa to me?

You aren't being left in any lurch. Your hardware is obsolete, and the software world has moved on. If you have a qualm about the matter then discuss it with the software's developers. Apple is not responsible for software they do not develop. This is technology, and you will just need to get used to it.

After installing ios 6 to my iphone4 and my daughters iphone4s we now get each others text messages. How can we disconnect from each other so that I don't receive the text messages from her and her friends and she does not receive mine?

After installing IOS6 on my iphone 4 and my daughters iphone 4s we have this wonderful connection that we would like to break. We are now seeing/receiving each others text messages. I love my daughter but I don't really want to get all of her text messages from her friends and I don't really want to read every response she sends. Additionally, she can also see my text messages and there are times I really don't need for her to know everything that I am doing.
So It is time to cut the cord we need our own seperate texting. I am not sure what we did to have this happen but how do we undo it?

Get your Apple ID sort out.
Only use the same Apple ID in Settings > iTunes & App Stores to share purchases, no where else.
Here some tips, it was written for IOS 5 but it's still valid for iOS 6.

My son and I both have iphones with the same Apple ID. Since I installed iOS this morning I have started receiving all my sons texts and when I send him a text it is delivered to both of us.

You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

How do I re-install music to iPhone 4 with iOS 7? Music is in iTunes, but library will not sync.

I removed my music to install iOS 7. Now, I can't re-install my music to my iPhone 4. Only purchased music syncs, not my entire library of songs. All my songs are listed in iTunes, but it won't sync. Also I see some exclamation points stasting it can't locate songs, but they are listed in the iTunes library.

There are other ways to free up storage space without deleting music > http://ios.wonderhowto.com/how-to/ultimate-guide-freeing-up-space-your-iphone-io s-7-0154466/

How can I install Google Maps on IOS 6?

Since I upgraded to IOS 6, Google Maps has been replaced by a poorer Apple version that doesn't support public transport. I want Google maps back. How can I install Google Maps on IOS 6 or downgrade to IOS 5?
Thanks.

Google Maps has not yet or does not look like they are creating a standalone app at this time.
It is not easy to downgrade, not recommended by Apple, very involved in order to do that. Again, not recommended.
Use MapQuest for now if you are unhappy with Apple Maps. I was never happy with Google Maps, so I have been using MapQuest for a long time for all directions.

. As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

How can I install iOS 6 on an iPad 1

How can I install iOS 6 on an iPad 1. It is currently running iOS 5 and when I follow the directions at Apple for updating ( connect to computer, open iTunes, on summary page click software update) it just says iOS 5 is updated to current version. Does anybody know if an Pad 1 will run iOS 6? And if it will, what do I need to do. Thanks

You can't.
The iPad 1 can only run iOS 5.1.1.

HT6162 My phone will not let me download the most recent update for iOS 7.1. It says I need a wifi connection and will not allow me to push the 'Download & Install' button, even when I am at home and my wifi is on. How do I fix this?

Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

IOS 5 Install Instructions (How to restore apps with progress, how to install on a computer you don't normally sync with, etc.)

This isn't really a question, but that doesn't matter, right?
First of all, you know how to upgrade, right? Install the new version of iTunes, plug in your iDevice, click on it on the sidebar, and click Update.
PRECAUTION: You should sync first, but it's not required at all, especially if you CAN'T sync because you're updating on a secondary computer. iTunes will create a backup for you during the update process.
If you are updating on a computer that you normally sync with...
Just click Download and Update!
If you AREN'T updating on a computer that you normally sync with...
You'll get a message that says it will erase everything on your iDevice.
Who cares? Just update!
Estimated download times:
Download Time: 30 Minutes
Backup Time: (Around 30 GB of data) 1.5 Hours (DON'T SKIP THIS STEP!)
Update Time: 10 Minutes
After the long wait, and something on your iDevice shows up about setting up a new device, jump right in and answer the 5-10 questions or so!
Then, you'll see your new iOS 5 iDevice for the first time.
WAIT, ALL OF THE APPS, MUSIC, and MORE are gone!
NO NEED TO PANIC!
This is normal, and WILL happen in 90-95 percent of users! There is a way to stop this from happening, but don't go that route... It takes DAYS to do... There are two ways to restore all of your apps, WITH THEIR PROGRESS TOO! (Angry Birds time!) Apple will NOT charge you for redownloading!
1. Just go into the App Store on your device, go into updates, and click the new purchased bar. From there, click the little cloud next to all the apps you need to download. They will redownload with their progress!
2. Or, you can go into iTunes, (Purchased tab), and from there redownload all of your apps.
This WILL happen whether or not you do this update on a computer you normally sync with or not. I did this update on a computer I don't normally sync with and it worked perfectly!
I waited four days researching what will happen if I update on a computer that I don't normally sync with, but with no avail, so I decided to bite the bullet, and this worked perfectly! Time to work on Angry Birds! iOS 5 is worth the 3 hour wait!
Any questions, feel free to ask!

This is not working for me. I synced to my computer first, then I did the upgrade on my iphone 4. Once the upgrade completed, my phone got an apple symbol with a line under it, and it is just frozen. I tried to sync back to my computer 3 times, and each time, it stops on step 3/4 for the sync. Under the apps, it says something like 'searching for apps to load.' It freezes there for hours. I waited 7 hours the first time, woke up, did it again and 11 hours later, come home from work, stuck on the same screen again. I restarted itunes, and it will not even let me press the sync button. It is like the sync button is already clicked, and it says - 'loading device.' It has been stuck on that for hours.
I am so disappointed with this 'update.' My phone worked fine yesterday. Can somebody tell me what to do to get my phone to work again? I do not even care if I keep the update or not. I just want a working phone. Just to be clear, I lost EVERYTHING. I lost the ability to even turn my phone on, and apparently, my computer lost the ability to 'read' my phone. I can see all of the info on my computer, but my phone will not power on, and the computer will not sync my phone to the info that is stored.

I just updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1. The apps I had previously installed are not showing on the screen. They are located in App Store icon. How do I move the icons so they are showing on the screen.

You can move apps around in iOS 7 the same as iOS 6. Press an app icon until you see it wiggle; then drag it to where ever you want it to be. Drag it onto another app to create a folder with the two apps. Tap the Home button to stop the wiggle.
