HT4623 I don't have iOS on my iPad. What's the next best software upgrade?
iPad runs very slow. Do I need to upgrade software?
Yes you have iOS on the iPad - you have to have some version of it. You may want to trouble shoot the slow iPad before you update to to iOS 6 which is the next version.
Try this and see if it helps. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Try this a well. Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

I have Mac os x with 10.4.11 and i want to upgrade, what is the next operating software from a 10.4.11 for a g4 and can it be done on a g4
If you have a processor of 867 MHz or faster and a minimum of 512 MB of RAM, you can run OS X Leopard, updated to 10.5.8.
That's as far as a G4 can go.
Check eBay for discs:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=Mac+OS+X+10.5+Leopard+Retail&_sacat=0&_odkw= Mac+OS+X+10.5+Leopard+Full+Retail&_osacat=0
No Snow Leopard, 10.6x or Lion, 10.7x.
they won't run in a PPC Mac. -
Hi there, I have an older version of 10.5.8. What is the next step to upgrade to the latest version of 10.9 Maverick?
Thanks in AdvanceIf yours is a PPC iMac (G4 or G5) you cannot upgrade further.
If it is an Intel iMac:
Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
(NB: PowerPC applications can still be run in Snow Leopard using Rosetta, but they will not work in later versions of OS X.)
The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 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
When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
Check via Software Update whether any further updates are required, particularly to iTunes.
You should now see the App Store icon in iTunes, and you now need to set up your account:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4479
You can now upgrade to Mavericks OS 10.9 for free IF you have one of the following Macs, with not less than 2GB of RAM, and at least 8GB of available space on your hard drive:
iMac (Mid-2007 or later)
MacBook (13-inch Aluminum, Late 2008), (13-inch, Early 2009 or later)
MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid-2009 or later), (15-inch, Mid/Late 2007 or later), (17-inch, Late 2007 or later)
MacBook Air (Late 2008 or later)
Mac Mini (Early 2009 or later)
Mac Pro (Early 2008 or later)
Xserve (Early 2009)
iCloud system requirements:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4759
If you cannot run Mavericks you can purchase the code to use to download Lion from the App Store (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):
http://store.apple.com/us/product/D6106Z/A/os-x-lion
or Mountain Lion:

Scroll down to the "Update your device using iTunes" section of the HT4623 article you attached above. -
Can i install ios on my ipad2

http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
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. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

In case this doesn't show up....I am trying to restore my ipad due to the fact my girls forgot passcode....when I hook up to PC and try to incorporate itunes, it will not come up maybe because I have no itunes on my ipad...can anyone give me any suggestions, as of now I have disabled the ipad trying for a passcode...
You do have iTunes on the iPad. You need to have iTunes on the PC because you need to restore it now.
You want to use the same computer that you always sync with so that you can restore your app data and settings. You can restore with any other computer, but you will lose everything on the iPad.
Try this ..... You will have to use recovery mode

Block pop-up windows is not checked in my preferences, yet when I try to play a card game at a yahoo site it won't allow me to join table because it says "please set browser to allow pop-ups to join table". What do I do to join the games then?
Open Firefox -> go to Tools Menu -> Options -> Content section ->
press "Exceptions..." button infront of "Block Pop-up Windows"
-> Type the address of the website you wish to unblock pop-ups from e.g. www.yahoo.com -> Allow -> Close -> "OK" the Options window -
Essentially I have a new iPhone and I've done the reset according to your instructions on your site. How do I apply the latest back up from my previous phone so that I can have all of the content, the back up and everything that was connected to the iCloud?
Also understand that iCloud and iTunes backup different things - iCloud really only the "essentials". Read more here:

Okay, so somebody stole my Ipod, 4th generation, and it don't have IOS 7, it has IOS 6.1.4, and apparently I was tracking it with police officers this morning and when I get home from school (now, 4:26) it appears that it's offline and I can't see the location no more, so my question is... Can they still find out where is it located?
Your carrier might be able to locate it if it's on their network and they are ordered to do so by the police or the courts. It can't be tracked with Find My iPhone if it's offline.

Hi I have an iPad with iOS 612 and am trying to connect a wireless printer, I don't think it's doing it because I don't have iOS 10 or more. Is this right?.
If you want to use AirPrint - the buit in feature in iOS that allows you to print directly from the iPad without another app - you need to be using an AirPrint Printer. There is a list of those printers here.
AirPrint basics
If your printer is not on the list, you may still be able to use your current printer, but will need to purchase a printing app for the iPad from the App Store.
I don't understand you reference to iOS 10 unless you mean OS X10 for Mac. -

Because the iPhone 4 has 512MB of RAM. The amount of RAM in the device isn't the same as the device's CPU.
