HT4623 My iPad is one of the original iPads. On settings, there is not a "software update" to click on. Any suggestions?

I have the original operating system that came with the original iPad. I have not updated. When I go to settings > general, there is not "system update" available to click on. How do I update?

Settings>General>Software Update is currently only available for IOS 5 and above.
If your are using IOS 4, you need to connect to iTune (computer) to update software

HT3228 I have one of the origin iPads. Suddenly when I receive an email only the headings are shown - the body of the text is blank. Also previously received emails have also had the text body removed. Any suggestions as to what caused this?

Try this.
Reset 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.

I have one of the original iPads. For some reason it has started showing Verification required. I do not know what is causing this and it keeps rebooting.

1. Windows 8.1 Enterprise w Update is the best. It allows you for sideloading in corporate environment without additional tools and licenses.

2. N series is for EU (without IE).
3. Profesional is fine, but you will need some tools to achieve the same functionality that you have in "pack" Enterprise.
4. VL is volume license, a type of license for multiple computers (to say it simply)
5. MSDN forum is better alternative for problems like this.
6. Attached to MSDN are licenses or at least references to web resources. Read license agreements carefully and let your installation and use follow the license.

How do I know if Bonjour is enabled on my device and Mac? My Mac could not identify an APP: "Document to go" that I bought for my iPad. One of the problems could be that Bonjour was not enabled?

If you're trying to run an iPad app on a Mac, forget it. You can't. Otherwise please clarify what the problem is.

No changes were made. I saw in one of the threads where someone said to repair the database(which didn't work) or Rebuild the database(which did work). Thanks to one all for the support.

HT204053 I do not have a software category under my general settings in order to set up iCloud on my iPad. I have the original iPad. Is it capable of downloading iOS 5?

I do not have a "software" category under my general settings in order to set up iCloud. I have the original iPad. Is it capable of downloading iOs 5?
I was discussing this with Austin but was unable to reply to his last comment to set up iCloud.

The original iPad can upgrade iOS 5.1.1. See below for instructions.

HT4623 My Settings General does not have "Software Update"

Trying to update iPad OS but Settings>General doesn't have "Software Update" item. Any guidance what to do to update the iPad OS?

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. 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, 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
If it's an iPad 1 then it should update to iOS 5.1.1, an iPad 2 (and 3) to iOS 6.0.1 (iOS 6 will remove the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change).

My IPAD has not been used in almost two years and I tried to update software and under general settings I can not find Software Updates where it should be, help please!

HT4623 I have an iPad 1, and there is not a "Software Update" listed under General. How can I connect to the download?

I just realized that there are some apps I no longer have access to since the switch to iOS 5. So I followed the instructions, and there is no SOFTWARE UPDATE tab for me to click on under Settings-General.

See
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
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. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5/6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

HT4623 I am trying to update my iPad 1 to iso5. And in the generals settings it does not say software update. Can you help?

I am trying to update my iPad and under my general settings there is nothing that states software update. Can someone tell me how to do this.

If you are on a version earlier thatn 5, you will not see that option. It was introduced in 5. To updare from 4x.x or earlier, you will need to connect to a computer running a current version of iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972

HT1689 i have a music album on my ipad that i cannot delete i have connected to my laptop where the album has been deleted but when i sync the ipad with the itunes library the unwanted album is still there and i am unable to delete it. any suggestions

I have a music album on my ipad that i cannot delege i have connected the ipad to my laptop where the album has been deleted from the music library but when i sync the ipad to the music i want the unwanted album still appears on the ipad any advice welcome thanks

Hi rosehooker,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Make sure you are following these steps to delete the music from both your iPad and computer:
On the iPad:
Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
Tap the Music app.
Tap the Songs category.
Swipe left to right over the song you want to delete.
Tap Delete.
On your computer:
Before you delete, find out if you'll be able to download the song you deleted again (it depends on where you live). To delete a song:
Launch iTunes.
From the Library pop-up menu, choose Music.
Click Songs in the navigation bar.
Click the song you want to delete.
Press the Delete key on your keyboard.
In iTunes 11, the album cover art will remain visible, but a cloud icon will appear on it to allow you to download the item again (in countries that support this).
Note: If you didn't purchase a song from the iTunes Store, you won't be able to download it again for free from iTunes in the Cloud. You might want to back it up somewhere on your computer.
You can find the steps above in this article:
How to delete content you've downloaded from the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store, or Mac App Store

I need a gaming keyboard for my mac but the only ones I can find are for Windows, there is no Command button or FN button. Any suggestions?

So, I have an OS X 10.7.5 and I want to get a gaming keyboard, but the only good ones I can find are for windows. I know because they have the Windows home key button, and no FN button or Command button. Any suggestions?

Normally, most Windows-compatible keyboards are also compatible with Mac OS X. If I'm not mistaken, the Windows key (the key with the Windows icon) is the command key. Also, if you do need to use the F1-F12 keys as standard function keys (you would normally hold FN and then press the button), you can set them to standard function keys in System Preferences. There may be some good gaming keyboards on the market that use the Mac layout, but most may use a Windows keyboard. Personally, I prefer the Mac keyboard on my Macbook. I hope this helps!

HT4085 My volume control indicates headphones not speaker. No sound from iPad. Have checked the mute button is off and button is set to operate lock rotation. Any suggestions?

The iPad sound is not working and the volume control shows headphones rather than speaker. Mute is off and I cannot see any reference to headphone/speaker settings or switch. Any suggestions ?

Most likely something is stuck in the headphone jack. Try to vacuum it out or CAREFULLY use a straightened paperclip to remove any dust or lint. You can also try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.
