HT4623 my first gen ipad wont update beyond 5.1.1 is there a fix for this
any way to update the ios?
I too have an iPad 1. Works great until today when I found an app which requires me to update it and it requires iOS 6.1 or greater. So I'd rather update my iPad 1's OS than pay big bucks getting a new one. Obviously there are those of us that love the technology and adopted it early on, but do not have the money to keep throwing at it.
Any suggestions? Go get a Surface and a case of RAID to go with it?

I have noticed that my IPad2 is losing it's connectiion to the internet at an increasing rate since IOS 7.0.2. This seems to be particulary true when I am streaming audio. It takes away the pleasure of listening.
Is anyone else having this problem. Is there a known fix for it?
I called the Apple Store and they said I am the only 1 they heard of with the problem.
Thanks for any suggestions.
LGReset your network settings ...
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
Then restart your iPad then try audio.
If that doesn't help, try the tips here > iOS 7: How to get your WiFi working again -
I am utilizing a radio station app while doing this. It used to work before the upgrade. I could listen all day long, but know when the screen locks or when I hit the home button the station stops.
You'll need to check on the web portal for the email provider as to whether they use POP, IMAP or both.
If you are using POP, that protocol isn't designed for access from more than one device.
The default behaviour for POP is to delete the messages from the server once the email has been downloaded to a PC. IMAP stores everything on the server and the client just caches a copy. -
Recent iOS update has made my iPad 2 unusable. The screen locks up. It's very laggy and web pages do not load correctly. Is there a fix for this or are they even working on a fix.
Try some basic troubleshooting:
(A) Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
(B) Try reset all settings
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
(C) Setup as new (data will be lost if you do not have backup)
Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings -
my 3rd generation ipad even though my battery is at 100 % the screen goes black after sitting for more than 15 mins. The only way to get it to come is by resetting the ipad. Is there a fix for this. It all started after the last two updates.
Try a Reset...
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.
If no joy... Try a Restore...
1: Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the steps in this article to force the device into recovery mode.

After upgrading to ios6 my iphone will not open .xls files in emails with the default viewer. Is there a fix for this? The same emailed .xls files still open on my ipad using ios5 while viewing email like they did on my iphone prior to upgrading. I have no special software like numbers or anything else installed on either device. Just using the default viewer provided by apple for viewing email.
The attachment is an .xls excel 97-2003 spreadsheet. I viewed the file in the email and did not edit it with any software. I can forward the file to anyone that is may want to check it out to see if they can help me. I was wondering if there was some way of forcing another ios6 install on my phone and maybe that would solve it.
Is there anyone out there that is viewing .xls files in email using ios6 w/o any other software installed like numbers or any other add ons? I am not upgrading my ipad from ios5 to ios6 so I can still continue to view the emails on my ipad. Is there an email viewer .xls plug-in that will be availablle in the next ios6 update? -
Sometimes I get a message that reads " UNSUPPORTED Accessory is not supported" when I plug in my bluetooth transmitter to my gen 6 nano. Other times it works fine. Is there a fix for this?
Have you checker the connectors on both the transmitter and Nano for any signs of damaged, corroded pins? It might help to take a can of compressed air to each. The error message may be simply a result of the iPod Nano not getting a full connection with the transmitter at first.

I recently upgraded the software on my iPad 2 to iOS8.02. Since upgrading the iPad is running slower and choppier, with several apps no longer working. In addition, it keeps knocking me off my cellular data and showing no service. Is there any fix for this, or can I downgrade the iOS back to 7?
I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums.

I have just updated to Lion and now my folders no longer show number of items on the bottom. Is there a fix for this? I allways found that handy. Now I have to click on an icon on the top, This is a backward step if that is now the only way to see the number of items. Am I missing something obvious?

In the good old days of Snow Leopard, an open Finder folder had a border along the bottom of the window which could show the number of items in that window and the total available space on the hard disk or partition that folder resides on. That bottom border is gone in Lion and those two bits of information are gone with it. Is that what you're talking about? If so, I'd like to learn how to get it back too and "Show Item Info" is not the way. -
After updating to OSX 10.7.3, my search (spotlight) no longer works. Is there a fix for this?
Have you tried going to System Preferences > Spotlight > Privacy and dragging your hard drive into the box then drag it back. That will trigger a re-index.

Whilst updating itunes software to latest version I get runtime error R6034 and cannot get into itunes. Is there a fix for this problem?
Click here and follow the instructions. You may need to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and all related components, or run the process multiple times; this won't normally affect its library, but that should be backed up anyway.

After installing the iOS 7.0.3 update on my iPhone 4S I am unable to turn on wifi. Is there a fix for this?
Not really.
I upgraded to ios 8.0.2 and the problem goes on.
I restored it to factory settings, and started installing every app, one by one, and the Copy + Paste problem still happens.
I have an iPhone 4S 32GB
