    Download the current GarageBand version to a computer's iTunes library, go to the device, sign into the iTunes App Store with the Apple ID used to do that, and try downloading it from the list of previous purchases. If that doesn't work and you don't already have a copy of a compatible version, you can't.

  • HT4623 I have a 1st generation iPad &recently updated to iOS 5.1, but I can't find my AppStore app icon! Help!

    I have a 1st generation iPad and recently updated to iOS 5. However, I can't find my AppStore app icon now. Like it's disappeared!
    How do I get the icon back?

    Do your have Restrictions turned on?  Settings>General.
    If that's not it, scroll to the left until you get to the search page.  enter "App Store", does this find the app?  If so, then the icon is lost on some later page or is in some folder.

    The iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. It cannot go beyond that.

  • HT4623 Can you update the 1st generation IPad to IOS 6?

  • HT4623 Why can't my 1st generation iPad update to iOS 6?  Memory is not an issue.

    Why can't my 1st generation iPad update to iOS 6 when memory is not an issue?

    The first gen iPad has a slower processor (A4) than the iPad 2 (dual-core A5) and iPad 3 (dual-core A5X) and 4 (A6X), and it also has less memory - 256 meg, compared to the iPad 2's 512 meg and the iPad 3 and 4's 1024 meg. My first gen iPad got noticeably slower with iOS 5 than it was with iOS 4, so I doubt that it could cope with iOS 6.

  • 1st generation iPad running iOS 5.1.1 and can't seem to update the iOS.  Any ideas?

    I currently have a 1st generation iPad that is running on iOS 5.1.1.  I have been unable to update the operating system.  In fact, when I look for updates under the general settings icon nothing comes up.  Shouldn't this older iPad be running on iOS 7.0.2 like my new iPad?  Also, I have 19 app updates that I can't even access.  I'm assuming this is because iOS 5.1.1 is too antiquated, thus not meeting the requirements for the other apps to update.  Thank you for any help or advice you can offer.

  • HT4623 Now that iOS is consistently being updated.  Will the 1st Generation IPad be stuck with IOS 5?  Eventually my IPad will be good for nothing as Apps start requiring the updated software.

    Now that iOS is consistently being updated.  Will the 1st Generation IPad be stuck with IOS 5?  Eventually my IPad will be good for nothing as Apps start requiring the updated software.

    The iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. This is unlikely to change.
    The apps you have will continue to work and there are still many apps which run on iOS 5 (or even earlier iOS levels).

  • Why can't I update my 1st generation ipad past iOS version 5.1.1?

    My 1st generation iPad crashed all the time. I can hardly use it any longer. Someone suggested updating to a new version of iOS. My current version is 5.1.1 & it keeps saying that is the latest version. Why can't I update it??

    In theory you're right that Missy8818's device will "continue work as it always has" except that more and more apps will require updates that she won't be able to do. Before long, it really won't work like it always has.
    Not exactly. Just because apps have updates available, does not mean they are required. You will not be able to update apps to get the new features and looks but the version of the apps you currently have should work as they do right now even if they are no longer available in the app store. Just be sure to backup up your device and your iTunes library.
    My frustration is also in the lack of options.. I have a 15 yr old Win 98 machine that I could still use if I wanted to – albeit with outdated, old,  but still functioning  software. Sure using these older versions I give up newer bells and whistles, but that is a compromise I CAN CHOOSE to make if I wish to hold on a little longer to my hardware. Apple offers no such choice with the Ipad. Their timeline for obsolescence is your time line. Take it or leave it.
    As with your iPad, the 15 year old Windows 98 machine will not be able to update to the most current versions of the apps (programs) either, including Microsoft's own Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player.

  • Hello I went to wipe my 1st generation iPad and then tried to update the iOS now the iPad won't work at all any ideas what I can do?

    Hello I went to wipe my 1st generation iPad and then tried to update the iOS now the iPad won't work at all any ideas what I can do?

    You can't update the original iPad beyond iOS 5.1.1 so if you were already running that version, there was no reason to wipe the iPad to try to update.
    Won't work at all, doesn't tell me the whole story. Does it power up but not respond to anything? Does it not power up at all? Some detailed information in context would really be helpful.
    IF the device will not start up, try a reset. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple Logo appears on the screen.
