HT2292 Original iPad - how to update operating system

I'd like to update the operating system on my original iPad. I just don't have the options on my screen that every tutorial I've seen shows. What do I do? I'm so so so frustrated and am to the point where I never want to own an Apple product again. I've never updated my operating system in the past. I wouldn't now except for the past several months my apps have started to not work and can't be updated until I have at least an os5. Ugh!

Consider this: the first iPad is not supported by any new iOS version. See here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_iOS_devices (scroll down to Highest Version of iOS supported).
There you read that the 1st iPad can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. If you already got 5.1.1 on it, then you can't go higher.
If the apps stop working, just do not update them. Problem is once they stopped and deleted the older version which already worked, you can not go back, because you usually don't get your hands on old app versions, except you kindly ask the app issuer.
But you can check the MEDIA folder of iTunes where the apps are stored. If you still got any older version of an app, you can delete the new version and add the old one by moving it to the "Automatically add to iTunes" folder.

Updated Wikibook: How To Backup Operating Systems

I have updated my wikibook How To Backup Operating Systems to include a method for ext4 using the new FSArchiver, and also made it both GRUB v1 and v2 friendly, among other changes. This guide is fairly newbie-friendly and is designed to help take some of the stress out of system updates and reinstallations by providing a reliable and easy system backup/restore solution. It covers multi-OS systems including Windows. It also contains a section "How The Computer Boots - The MBR Explained" that is good reading if you don't understand the boot process.

HT1338 attempting to update operating system software on Macbook Pro with OSX 10.4.11 what is the cost and how

attempting to update operating system on macbook pro with osx10.4.11.
how is this accomplished and what is the cost ? is the worth the expense give the age of unit?

Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

You are in the Mavericks forum. You need to ask in the IOS 8 forum.

HT4623 Can't update Operating System

I need to update operating systems but the option is not in my General menu. Any idea what I should do?

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and 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
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
An iPad 1 will update to iOS 5.1.1, an iPad 2 and 3 to iOS 6.0.1

How to call Operating System commands / external programs from within APEX

Hi,
Can someone please suggest how to call Operating Systems commands / external programs from within APEX?
E.g. say I need to run a SQL script on a particular database. SQL script, database name, userid & password everything is available in a table in Oracle. I want to build a utility in APEX where by when I click a button APEX should run the following
c:\oracle\bin\sqlplusw.exe userud/password@database @script_name.sql
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Guys,
I have reviewed the option of using scheduler and javascript and they do satisfy my requirements PARTIALLY. Any calls to operating system commands through these features will be made on the server where APEX is installed.
However, here what I am looking at is to call operating systems programs on client machine. For example in my APEX application I have constructed the following strings of commands that needs to be run to execute a change request.
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script1.sql
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script2.sql
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script3.sql
sqlplusw.exe user/password@database @script4.sql
What I want is to have a button/link on the APEX screen along with these lines so that when I click that link/button this entire line of command gets executed in the same way it would get executed if I copy and paste this command in the command window of windows.
Believe me, if I am able to achieve what I intend to do, it is going to save a lot of our DBAs time and effort.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

How to use Operating System Commands while using define in sqlplus

How to use Operating System Commands while using define in sqlplus . The Host OS is Linux
define report_name=PROD_${host date "+%b"}.html
The above is not working.
The output should be
define report_name=PROD_JAN.html
Regards,
DB

of course I was talking nonsense: the problem here is the mixing of bind variables and DEFINE variables.
With the following changes the script should work (the conditions for begin_interval_time are perhaps not what you want):
variable snap1 number
variable snap2 number
variable rptname varchar2(20)
begin
SELECT min(snap_id) into :snap1 FROM dba_hist_snapshot WHERE CAST(begin_interval_time AS DATE) >= SYSDATE-1;
SELECT max(snap_id) into :snap2 FROM dba_hist_snapshot WHERE CAST(begin_interval_time AS DATE) >= SYSDATE-1;
end;
col file_name_value new_value report_name noprint
select 'PROD_'|| to_char(sysdate,'MON') || '_' || to_char(sysdate,'DD') file_name_value from dual;
define report_type = 'html'
define num_days=2
define begin_snap=:snap1
define end_snap=:snap2

FaceTime can run in the version of OS X that you currently have. To get Messageyou need Mountain Lion. The protocol used by Messages is iMeassage.
The question is does your MBP meet the specs for Mountain Lion.
iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
Xserve (Early 2009)
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory
8 GB or more of available space

If we have the original ipad, how can you open a pdf in the ibooks? the menu tap bar does not appear at the top of the screen like the new ipad2. Any suggestions?

If we have the original ipad, how can you open a pdf in ibooks? The menu bar does not pop up like it does on the ipad2. Any suggestions?

Are you in Safari and you want to copy them to iBooks, or you in a different app ? Assuming that you are using Safari, then if I open a PDF on my first gen iPad in Safari and tap on it, I then get a pop-up bar at the top of it with the 'Open In' options.

I updated operating system to OS X Yosemite, also updated pages. Now when I try to open files I am told to update pages

I updated operating system to OS X Yosemite, also updated pages. Now when I try to open files I am told to update pages

You have both Pages 5.5.2 and your older version of Pages on your Mac .
Pages 5.5.2 ids in your Applications folder.
Pages '08/'09 is in your Applications/iWork folder.
When you double click on a file either version may open, but usually the older, and it can not open files from the newer version.
Right click on the file instead and choose which version to open from.

Why did I lose my contacts after updating operating system on my Ipad

I upgraded the operating sysem on my I-pad 2 to 5.1.1.
Now my contacts and apps are gone. Trying to figure out how to get them back.
thanks for your help.

Updating to iOS 5.1.1? Are you sure you have an iPad 2? The original iPad cannot update to any system newer than iOS 5.1.1. However, the iPad 2 can update to iOS 7.0.3 (current version).
So my guess is there is something strange going on that would even allow you to update to iOS 5.1.1. Etiher you have an original iPad, or you are using a very old version of iTunes on your computer, or something else very unusual.
