HT4623 Ipad2 - General setting: Menu item 'Softwareupdate' missing

I want to update my IPAD2 to iOS6, but for some reason I don't have the menu item Softwareupdate under General. Is there anyone who knows how to get this setting?

Depends on the version of iOs you currently have on the iPad.
Go to Settings->General->About and look for the section named "Version"
That's your version number.
If you have version 5.x  Then you can go back out to Settings->General, and tap on Software Update option.
If tyour iOS version is lower than 5. Then you'll need to connect your iPad to a computer running iTunes, and use that to update iOS  to version 6.0.1 It should automatically prompt for the update.

  • Apple Menu items are missing. How do I restore them?

    My Apple Menu is missing some items. Not sure of all that may be missing, but the ones that I use that are missing include "System Preferences," "Restart," and "Shutdown."
    System Preferences is still installed and available from the Applications folder, and I can restart or shutdown the system in other ways, but I'd sure like to get those items back on the menu.
    I'm not what caused this, but I did some system maintenance including an iDefrag full defragmentation and some tweaking in Onyx. Can't say I know at which stage this happened, but the system seems to be behaving normally but for the missing items.
    System is a Macbook Pro 17-inch, Mid 1009, running OS X Mavericks 10.9.2.
    Thanks for any advice you can offer.

    As it turned out, restarting the system didn't help, but shutting down and starting again did. Not sure if there's a difference between a restart and a shutdown+start, but I know there is a slight difference between a warm boot and a cold boot on PC, so maybe there is.
    Anyway, the problem solved without major surgery. This specific option of removing the System Preferences menu item isn't available in Onyx, though removing the Restart and Shutdown options are (which I did not select). So, I guess I'll chock this up to an anomaly.
    Thanks for the help guys.

  • Programmatically setting menu item "enabled".

    I have an AIR app that has a menu item that when selected
    launches a dialog.
    I need to set the enabled property of the menu item to false
    after it is selected, as only one instance of this dialog should be
    launched, and I don't want to make the dialog modal. I also need to
    set the enabled property to true when the dialog is closed.
    Do I do this through the defaultDataDescriptor?
    BTW, the dialog that launches is not a popup, it is in an AIR
    app in the main window, in what I call the "workarea".

    What is the code of your menu? MenuItems have an enabled
    property, but
    knowing you I'm guessing the problem is not that you don't
    know that.

  • Keyword Set menu item

    I think the Keyword Set drop-down menu needs an item to ADD a new set or maybe just a + symbol as in the Keyword list.  It is not obvious to me that to create a new set you have to select an exsisting one then select Edit then save it under a new name.  I had to look it up.  In the drop down menu  you have the options to Delete or Rename presets.  Maybe the wording should be changed to Delete or Rename "Sets", instead of "Presets", since that is what they are called in the heading.
    I also think the Keyword set needs room for more than a maximum of 9 enteries.

    Well, that is not much to go by for us. You are probably doing something wrong before you before you do set_menu_item_property. How do you specify ID_menu?

  • Photos menu item goes missing

    I have two user accounts defined on my Mac Pro. My primary user has iTunes with my music encoded as AAC, and has my iPhoto library. I have a second Music Server user with my music encoded as Apple Lossless. Both users run all the time so I can sync my iPod with the AAC files while playing the Lossless files through my audio system.
    I set up the Apple TV to sync to the primary account, including all my photos. I set it to connect to the Music Server account, where there are no photos, to stream Lossless. Both connections work fine, but when I switch the Apple TV connection BACK from the Music Server account to the primary account, the Photos menu entry has gone missing. Cycling the power causes it to come back.
    Anyone seen this? Any solutions?
    Thanks.
    Mac Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    This is the answer I got in another thread about the same thing...
    It worked for me
    Many users of this device seem to be getting confused by the Sources menu. In that menu are listed the content sources available, starting with Apple tv (tv) at the top, followed by your sync host (indicated by double chain link icon), then all the stream hosts... When you go to the Sources menu and select tv, that enables the playing of content already sync'd. In this resulting set of content menus at the top level, you will see the Photos pick is there, assuming iTunes is set to sync photos.
    Now, go to the Sources menu and select your sync host (the one with the double chain link icon). Look at the top content menu now, and you will not see the Photo pick present. That's because streaming photos is not currently supported, and hence you'll only see it in the tv menu set.

  • Want to export bookmarks, but menu item is missing (Firefox 5.0, Windows XP)

    As in previous versions of Firefox I tried to find the export function for bookmarks in the menu Bookmarks. There should be a item 'Organize Bookmarks ...' but it is missing.
    My Firefox Version is 5.0 and I'm using Windows XP.

    That was renamed to '''Show All Bookmarks'''.

  • HT4623 Under "General" the "Software update" is missing!!! why? and obviously I canot update.

    Software update option is missing in the General menu, why is that? and I cannot update my software.
    HHHEEEELLLLLPPPP

    Start iTunes on your computer and use the menu to check for an update to iTunes. If there is an update available download and install it. Then restart your computer.
    Once your computer has restarted start iTunes on your computer and connect your iPad.
    In the left column of iTunes on your computer select your iPad. In the right column select Summary and look for the Check for Update. Click on that if it doesn't bring the update message up automatically. Follow the prompts to complete the update. The update is a big file so be sure to have a good Internet connection. You might also have to disable your virus protection software and firewalls if either are turned on.
    After you reach iOS 5.1.1 future updates for the iOS can be installed directly on the iPad over a Wi-Fi connection.

  • Setting menu item state in menu created with Actions

    Hi there,
    Is there a way of accessing and then setting the state of a menuitem that had been added to a menu previously using an Action?
    like. JMenu m = new JMenu("Settings");
    Action a = new MYAction("Sound");
    m.add(a);
    .. then say access and set the "Sound" menuitem to enabled(false);
    If you can help that would be wicked.
    Cheers,
    Edd.

    Have you tried call setEnabled on the Action?

  • Plug-Ins menu button is missing?

    Hallo!
    I am new to Adobe Indesign and the plugins programming.
    I am using Adobe Indesign CS3 and want to use a sample plugin.
    But the Plug-Ins menu button is missing? What can I do?
    Thanks
    Alois Blaimer

    First, did you put the plugin in the right place in the application folder?
    Second, is it active when you go to Help > Configure Plugins...?
    Third, did you mean plugin's menu command (a command inserted into some menu by the plugin) or do you think there is some general plugins menu that is missing?

  • 30EA2 problem: Menu items not available

    After having used Data Modeler 30EA2 successfully for a while, suddenly several menu items are missing.
    E.g. in my File menu "Open" is not shown (in fact only "Save", "Save as", "Compare With" and "Exit" is shown). This clearly makes the modeler unusable, as I cannot open my models!
    The problem continues even after I download the product (Product Version: 3.0.0.653) from OTN, unzip in a new location and use that.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Peter.
    please try removing (or renaming the folder called .oraclesqldeveloperdatamodeler in C:\Documents and Settings\<YOUR_WINDOWS_USER>)
    This is a folder where the datamodeler IDE caches are stored.
    Hope that helps,

  • Is it possible to create a checkmark next to a context menu item in a Tree in LabVIEW?

    Hello,
    I'm creating a custom application where a particular context menu will be shown to the user depending on what item in the Tree they have right-clicked on. One of the items in the menu that I would like to display is essentially a "Disable" option. I'm looking for a way to show the user the current state of this Disable option by providing a checkmark next to it if they have already clicked it for a particular item in the tree. Here's a screenshot of a similar checkmark from the LabVIEW dev environment drop-down menus:
    Does anyone know if it is possible to create a context menu with a checkmark like the one above in a Tree in LabVIEW? I've tried searching the web and here in the NI forums but without much luck. Thanks!
    Lars L

    Wow, I know this one!
    I used it a couple of years ago (LV 8.6)
    There is an option to "Set Menu Item Info" that allows you to set the check for a context menu item.

  • Missing Menu Item: Settings- General- Date & Time- Automatically Set Time Z

    I'm running F/W 1.1.4 on my iPhone (German TMobile contract). The Date&Time settings menu is lacking the menu item for the automatic adjustment of the Timezone. The Apple Genius Bar recommended to reset the phone, which I did with no success. Same my second iPhone with TMobile contract. All other iPhones with identical F/W build numbers which I looked at at the (US) Apple stores showed that menu item.
    Does anybody see the same problem? Any idea to resolve this?
    Many thanks, Hans-Uwe

    Page 151 iPhone5 user guide....does this help?
    Set whether iPhone updates the date and time automatically
    Go to Settings > General > Date & Time, then turn Set Automatically on or off.
    If iPhone is set to update the time automatically, it gets the correct time over the cellular network and updates it for the time zone you’re in.
    Some carriers don’t support network time in all areas. If you’re traveling, iPhone may not be able to automatically set the local time.
    Set the date and time manually
    Go to Settings > General > Date & Time, then turn Set Automatically off. Tap Time Zone to set your time zone. Tap the Date & Time button, then tap Set Date & Time and enter the date and time.

  • Xfce4 missing icons for menu items

    My xfce4 seems to have blank icons for some of the menu items and I can't figure out why. I installed the entire xfce4 and xfce4-goodies groups.

    maggie: are you talking about icons in the Applications menu applet? If yes, are the icons missing for applications which do not provide icons¹? If yes, then you have the answer: there is no icon displayed because there is no icon to display for the entry.
    AFAIR, the pre-4.12 Applications menu applet displayed some ugly stock icon as a placeholder, but it seems that this behaviour is no longer present in the latest release. If you truly want icons for the entries, you may set them by editing corresponding .desktop entries. The best way is placing your overrides in ~/.local/share/applications as this will not pollute pacman-managed /usr/share/applications directory.
    ¹ See the corresponding .desktop entry in /usr/share/applications/ or ~/.local/share/applications

  • Missing menu items in CS4 - PDF Presentation

    I downloaded the 30 day trial of CS4 and I can't make a PDF presentation (which I do daily in CS2). There should be a menu item in Photoshop under automate and from Bridge, under tools, Photoshop, PDF presentation. I read through the documentation for CS4 and they should be there... why aren't they? I need this tool any ideas why it's missing in CS4 for me?

    In another thread, this relevant exchange between myself, Anne and Rene occurred on this very subject. Had I known, I would have posted here instead. Ms. Guo, if you are indeed listening, consider putting this one back...because, specifically with open Photoshop files, it can't be pulled off in Bridge. Jbeezer points out another major problem:
    "There is no control over compression and it yields a much larger PDF as in over 5x for my previous example."
    Here is the earlier exchange:
    Anne said:
    "And it isn't called "Automate->PDF Presentation" in CS4 either.
    It has been replaced by a multi-page PDF that you create from Bridge CS4's Output Panel and then edit in Acrobat Pro if you need to finesse transitions etc.."
    I said:
    I did find that in my hunt. It doesn't work anywhere near as quickly or as well as it did in PS CS3. Not even close. It can't deal with open PS documents (at least I couldn't find a way) and it can't be set to completely remove the "jpg'ing". I tried for a few hours to get it to output a decent PDF within Bridge and just gave up. Moving over to Acrobat Pro to "fix" pretty much negates the whole Bridge step. It's actually faster to completely skip Bridge and just make a PDF directly in Acrobat Pro.
    There was no reason to remove this function at all. It wasn't broken and it didn't need fixing. Yet another reason to keep PS CS3 resident...particularly because the PS CS3 parameters actually does this trick (PDF from open PS images) faster and with better quality than Acrobat Pro does with saved/converted PDF files ...in one easy step. When you get right down to it, the function Automate>PDF Presentation wasn't moved over to Bridge. It was removed.

    That's funny. There is no other information on Automate>PDF presentation in Nack's blog:
    * Picture Package, Contact Sheet, Web Photo Gallery, and PDF Presentation have been replaced by the new Output module in Bridge CS4. Of these the first three are in the optional download package, while PDF Presentation no longer works in CS4.
    * In CS4 we made some hard calls and retired a number of features. Some of these can be added back into CS4 (see Mac & Windows downloads) while others are gone for good."
    "Gone for good" applies here.
