I want to update to my iOS. Old iPad has no USB port.

I have an old iPad. All new updates for my apps require iOS 5 or greater. The fix involves hooking my iPad up and using iTunes, but there is no USB port on my iPad.

No iPad has a USB port, you use the same port on the bottom edge of the iPad as you use for charging it, and plug the other end of the cable into your computer's USB port and update it via your computer's iTunes. If you haven't synced the iPad to a computer's iTunes before then this page may be of help : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-3141
Before starting the actual update, first copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

If it's an iPad 1 then it will update to iOS 5.1.1, an iPad 2 will update to iOS 6.0.1

My MacBook is almost two years old and has started running really slow. It gets bogged down when it is running different programs at the same time, like Safari and Pages. It didn't react this way until recently. Any advice would be very welcome.

Launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive (the drive itself, not the volume icons below it.) Is the SMART status "Verified?" If not, replace the drive immediately. If the status is "Verified," the drive may still be failing. Back up all data, if you haven't already done so. Reinstall Mac OS X, then run Software Update. Test with all wired peripherals disconnected. If it's still slow, you have a hardware problem.

Have you tried: restarting, resetting, restoring?

HT5278 If I reset my iPad 1 to factory settings, how would I then update the iOS to 5.1.1

If I reset my iPad 1 to factory settings, how would I then update the iOS to 5.1.1?
As I believe the update would fail as it would be attempting to update to iOS 7 which is 'above its paygrade' or at least this is what an apple genius told me...
He said he thought I would need to find an old version of iTunes containing the correct version of iOS. But he was not very confident about what he was telling me.
Any help would be much appreciated...

Hmmm
I may be asking the wrong question here, let's back up a little.
I have an iPad 1 running iOS 5.1.1
Over the years it has become a little laggy and sluggish. I am about to replace it and wish to 'recycle' this old one onto my granddaughter.
I want to completely wipe it, and get rid of all traces of the hundreds of app it's had on and deleted, in the hopes that it will clean up any residual crud that's choking it.
Is a factory reset what I'm looking for?
What I had in mind, is what I have done with my iPhone on a couple of occasions which was to completely start over with it and I was sure that that had taken the iOS version back to what it was when I took delivery of it. But I may be wrong...

Preparing an iPad in Configurator without updating the iOS

Hi all,
I work on a research study that uses iPads and an app to collect data. The app is a third party app and will not work if the iOS on the iPads is updated beyond iOS 7.0.6. I was trying to apply a backup via Configurator to one of the study's iPads and I got the error message that Configurator couldn't recognize the supervision status of the iPad and that the iPad needed to update the iOS for Configurator to work. I did some research on the interent and it seemed like people who didn't want to update the iOS created a custom iOS in Configurator then prepared their iPads using the custom iOS. I unsupervised my iPad and dowloaded the ipsw I wanted and put it in the custom iOS folder in Configurator but it doesn't work. Everytime I hit the Prepare button I get the same error: Unable to install iOS 7.0.6, unable to restor device with firmware found at file:///Users/DailyDiaryStudy/Library/Containers/com.apple.configurator/Data/Li brary/Caches/com.apple.configurator/UnpackedFirmware/iPad2,3_7.0.6_11B651_Restor e.ipsw/.
Personalization failed, error codes 4027 and 3194.
I've done everything the Apple support website and other websites recommend but it still hasn't worked. I also can't find any file called Unpacked Firmware in the location Configurator gives in the error message. The iPad is already on iOS 7.0.6 and I don't know if that's the problem or the firmware is the problem or if it's something else. I tried preparing the iPad with 7.0.4 and the same thing happened. I only use Apple technology for work so I really don't know anything about it beyond what I've taught myself. I've done some internet searches but I haven't found anything helpful. One person got error code 4027 and did something in the Host file but I don't know what it was. I know updating the iOS would likely solve all my problems but like I said, doing so would mean I would no longer be able to use the study's app on that iPad. I'm using the latest version of Configurator and I'm running Mavericks on the Mac. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Another way to see this:
Apple offers half price apps. Configurator is not mandatory, but half price apps are almost useless to a school without Configurator.
Using Configurator means schools are forced to always use the most bleeding edge iOS.
==============================================================
Imagine if Microsoft offered half price apps to schools, but only if the IT staff forced everyone to use windows 8. Oh my...
This affects many apps. If you feel apple should not be so forceful and restricive please call and let them know you don't want configurator to force the new ios at the time of prep. (866) 752-7753

Just got my iPad 2 back from apple for battery exchange. It was updated to iOS 7.02. Trying to get all my apps back but my App Store is locked onto a purchased app and won't let me do anything. Help ,

My App Store is locked at an app I purchased and won't let me make any selections. What do I do. I just got my iPad back from factory for new battery. It was updated to iOS 7.02 at factory. Have not been able to take a movie either. Will take picture. No idea what square is, but won't let me select it either.

Try close all apps in multi-task window
1. Double tap the home button to bring up the multi-tasking view
2. Swipe the app's windows upwards to close
3. The app will fly off the screen

The restore is not completed. You will have to re-try the restore process again.

I have an Ipad 2 and never updated the Ios bfore now. When syncronizing it I lost everything I have bought on Itunes. How do I get it back?

I bought an Ipad 2 some years back and never hooked it up to my computer (somehow). I was now to update the Ios on it, but when doing that I lost all the music I bought in Itunes.
When trying to buy it back it states "you have already bought this item".. Is it any possibillity to get this music back? I've used quite a lot of money on all that music and it is no fuin having lost it.

Hi, I'm a bit low on memory and I can't update the iOS. I need to move some photos off the iPad but I don't want to transfer them to a pc, I'd prefer to transfer them to iCloud and leave them there. Is that possible?

Yes, you could, because in this case you would have something like a backup in the cloud. BTW, personally I also like Flickr. Flickr offers you 1 TB (1000 GB) of free storage and automatic upload for photos since iOS 7 (it is a very attractive offer, at least for me)

I recently updated the iOS on my ipad 3 and lost all my files in the process. How do I recover my lost files which were not previously backed up?

I recently updated the iOS on my ipad 3 and lost all my files in the process. How do I recover my lost files which were not previously backed up?

If you don't have them backed up somewhere, then there's little possibility of recovering them. There are some utilities that can in some cases recover an inadvertently-deleted photo, but I've found none that can recover photos or other data from an iPad that was erased as part of an iOS upgrade. You can do a web search for something like "iPhone photo recovery" and you'll find some utilities you can try.
Regards.

The iOS 8.0.2 has been downloading for an hour on my iPad, is that normal?

The iOS 8.0.2 has been downloading for an hour on my iPad, is that normal?

Yes. Your product list shows that you're currently running iOS 7.1.2, and whenever you make a major update, i.e. iOS 7 to 8, it's a large file which can take a while to download.
