The iPad 1 can't.

How to upgrade iPad2 to iOS5 without deleting my photos & apps etc

I have an iPad 2 and it's been a long time since I did a sync and i don't have the computer any more.
I want to upgrade to iOS5, I downloaded iTunes onto a PC and plugged in the ipad but it said it was going to erase everything.
I don't care about music and videos (I don't have any), but I MUST PRESERVE my photos and contacts and notes and bookmarks and applications.
What must I do please? I serached on goole and it suggested third party programs, but I would prefer not to buy some dogy progams just to upgrade my ipad.
Thank you very much, William

Have a look at this article How to back up your data and set up as a new device
Basically you'll have to make sure to back up manually by right clicking on your device in the device list and choosing "backup", then do the same again to transfer your purchases. Make sure you have at least one contact and event listed on your computer, to be able to merge data when you sync for the first time.
Contacts and photos taken with the ipad are part of the backup, see this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4079
Photos can also be copied to your computer, as explained here: Copying personal photos and videos from iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your computer

Ipad2 and Ipad3, cannot see Ipad2 user - worked ok for months, now broken. Like to know how to upgrade Ipad2 to IOS 5.1.1 (too many issues with IOS 6 - consider too risky)?

I have been using Facetime successfully for months to communicate with my elderly mother in the UK (I am located in Canada)? Today we tried Facetime and we could hear each other but I could not see her. She could see me ok however.
As I wasn't sure whether the problem was with my iPad or hers I made a FaceTime call to my brother-in-law in the UK, this call worked perfectly. I then tried a Factime call with a friend in Canada and it also worked fine.
My mother could see herself in the small window so we know that her camera must be working.
Here are the IOS versions for the four IOS devices used in these tests..
My mothers iPad 2: IOS 4.3.5
Brother-in-law's iPad 3: IOS 5.1.1
Friends iPhone: IOS 6
My iPad 3: IOS 5.1.1
My questions are as follows:
Q1/ Has anyone heard of Facetime problems between newer and older iPads as a result of Apple rolling out IOS 6 recently?
(maybe there have been some changes to the FaceTime servers as part of the IOS 6 rollout?)
Q2/ Is it possible to update my Mothers iPad 2 (IOS 4) to IOS 5.1.1 and do this without using a computer? (I would prefer her to update to 5.1.1 and hold off updating to 6 because of all the issues I read of users having problems with 6, including FaceTime issues)
My mother is in her 70's, and has no computing device other than her iPad. She can just about manage to figure out how to use the basic features of her iPad. Therefore the update process needs to be very easy and straightforward otherwise she is likely to get very confused, very quickly!
Facetime has been brilliant for my mother and keeping in touch with her son, thousands of miles away, we would really like to get Facetime working again.
Can anyone help?

You will not be able to block IOS 6. You can try blocking it with a webfilter or firewall but if the students take these home or connect to another network or iTunes they can get it that way. You will find that the vast majority of all apps will work with 6 or have been updated to work with it by now.

How to upgrade iPad2 to iOS 5

My iPad 2 is 4.3.5 version

Only if you've never synced your media to a computer. When you upgrade to 5.x for the first time, iTunes will back up your computer (make sure to let it do it), erase it, and then install the new OS. It will briefly look like a new iPad, but iTunes will then restore your iPad from the backup it made as part of the upgrade - just make sure to let it go all the way through (it's not that clear that it's doing so, there's no alert saying "Don't unplug while your iPad restores from backup).

I just updated my ipad2 to ios7 0.2 latest update, but when I go to apps store to upgrade I don't see the upgrade button, nor when I go in for new apps I don't see free button to download new apps. Could you please help

I just updated my ipad2 to ios7 0.2 latest update, but when I go to apps store to upgrade I don't see the upgrade button besides each app, nor when I go in for new apps I don't see free button to download new apps. Is there any setting that missed ? please help...

What do you see instead of update on the apps you are concerned about?
When updating to iOS 7 auto update for apps will be turned on. When an app has an update available your iPad will download and install the update with no input from you. Apps that have been updated by this automatic process but which have not yet been opened will show a blue dot before their name.
A record of updated apps is kept for your convenience. You can see this record by using the App Store app and select Updates, the right most choice in the bottom row.

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.

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).

HT4623 I just upgrade my iPhone iOS7, but don't like it. How to return to iOS6 from iOS7

How to downgrade my iPhone iOS7 to iOS6 ?

Maybe reset your iPhone 4 to Factory Conditions? I'm not sure this will work and would probably ask an Apple Genius if that might work. It was shipped from the Factory with iOS ? ... maybe 4 or 5? Good question ... I suspect a lot of iPhone 4 users will want to return to iOS6.
Another solution is to bite the bullet and upgrade for $99 to an iPhone 5C. A little painful but much better in the long run.
Good Luck.

Does my problem has anything to do with SSL for mail settings? Cause when I tried re-adding it says something that I should try without SSL, and I did what you said and it gives me this "The IMAP server pop.mail.yahoo.com is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field". Ahh.. this is so annoying, Apple what are you doing to me?! Or is Yahoo doing this to me?!
Thank you for your time. Sorry it doesn`t work.

How to upgrade ipad 1 to ios7.

How to upgrade iPad 1 to iOS 7 software

This is a very old argument/issue.
The original iPad hasn't been able to use a newer iOS version since iOS 6 came out almost 2 years, ago.
The original iPad simply does not have necessary hardware and RAM capacity to handle any of the newer iOS versions.
The original iPad is grossly underpowered to run any newer iOS versions and newer apps.
This is price early iPad adopters' had to pay (myself included).
Newer iPads after the original iPad have better/powerful CPUs and more RAM capacity.
The original iPad only had 256 MBs of RAM.
The iPad 2 has 512 MBs of RAM.
The newer iPads now have, at least 1 GB of bulit-in RAM and even more powerful CPUs, now.
If you want to take advantage of the latest iOS and upcoming iOS 8, you need to upgrade to either a newer/refurbed iPad or brand new, up to date iPad models.
It's that simple.
