If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - 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.

  • HT204387 Why can't my ipad2 and iPhone4 and 5 recognise each other as devices using bluetooth?

    Why can't my ipad2 and iPhone4 and 5 recognise each other as devices using bluetooth?
    Bluetooth should allow me to connect to other devices to transfer data like photo's, music, files, whatever between my apple devices and non apple devices.
    Other phones allow me to do this..........what is happening here?
    An unhappy apple devices owner.
    I want to know who I complain to if this is how Apple devices operate.
    Any answers anyone.

  • Why can't I copy photos from my new Sony camera to my iphone4?

    Why can't I copy photos from my new Sony point and shoot to my iphone4? It works with photos from my old camera, just not with the new one. When I sync photos to my phone, they come out black. Help!

    It's possible they aren't in the right format. See this list to verify you have the correct format. I know some Sony cameras use the ARW interface (known as RAW).
    You may want to use a photo converter like photoshop, etc. to get photos into .jpeg or other file formats.

  • HT5567 My phone is iPhone4S, why can't I update for it to iOS 6.0.1?

    My phone is iPhone4S, why can't I update for it to iOS 6.0.1?

    There are plenty of apps still compatible with iOS 4.2.1. Not a majority, necessarily, but they're still out there. If the app you want requires a newer version, find another app the accomplishes the same thing.
    Of course, it may be too late for that now, since you chose to hack/jailbreak your iPhone, and it is currently a brick. As varjak paw stated, this forum will not help you with your hacked phone.

  • I bought an iPhone4 locked to Orange UK, why can't it be unlocked?

    I contacted Orange UK and they said that this iPhone4 is ready to be unlocked, but they can't unlock the phone  because I am not the original contract owner. Why can't Apple unlock this phone, because the original owner doesn't care and has sold it?
    As far as I understand, I am one of at least 3 owners for this phone. I guess there could be more.
    I just wanted to have a normal iPhone, why can't Apple help on this issue?
    I have previously had many apple products, this is the first one I bought used adn just wanted to restore it to normal.
    Another thing is that 3rd party services can unlock it for 200$. What is that they do to unlock it? Why can't apple make a small comission for unlcoking iPhones instead. People find ways to cheat and ripoff people who doesn't deserve to pay extra for the phone they bought.
    Here is my iPhones description:
    IMEI: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
    Serial Number: XXXXXXXXXXX

    Apple does Not unlock phones...
    Only the Carrier can Unlock it...
    and it looks like you do not meet the Carriers requirements for Unlocking...
