HT4623 what if you go to general and the new up date is not there

what if i go to general and my update does not automatic appear and my device need to be updated?

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, 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 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

    What do you mean it isn't' compatible?  What isn't compatible?
    There is no limit to the number of iPods you can sync to one computer, iTunes library, or iTunes account.  Simply connect each separate iPod/iPhone to your computer and configure each to sync whatever content you wish to.

  • I have the original ipad. I can't delete my photos from the ipad, and the new itunes update does not give me the option to sync photos. What do I do?

    I have the orignal ipad. I synced all my photos from my computer onto. Now I don't have enough storage on my ipad so I want to delete these photos. When I try from my ipad it only gives me the option to share or copy, NOT DELETE. I went to resync my ipad to itunes, after I downloaded the new version and now it doesn't give me an option to sync photos. How do I get rid of them?

    Wow.  That's weird.
    Is your iPad jailbroke?  If it is, all bets are off.  If it is not jailbroke, keep reading.
    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

  • Exchange 2010, UCC SSL, and the "new" CA/BROWSER Forum not issuing for .local

    I don't know how many people have run into this yet, but the CA/BROSWER Forum, the "standards" authority for SSL issuing, has mandated that CA's can no longer issue a certificate using a FQDN "intranet" name for new or renewal SSL certificates effective
    Nov 1, 2012.  i.e. the Microsoft standard of mydomain.local will no longer be accepted as a SAN on a UCC for Exchange 2010.  I've looked thru the KBs and Social forums, but haven't really found any guidance on how to solve this.  I'm presuming
    that the certs will have to be split and the "external" domain name of server.mydomain.net will just become a single server SSL, and the internal name of server.mydomain.local will become a Self-Signed certificate.  With the increasing prevalence of OA
    and ActiveSync devices, is there any baseline guidance yet on how to make this happen without completely fouling up production servers and killing access to the user community?

    On the same topic, though likely different environment...
    Against recommended deployment, I have a number of clients running all their services on one box.  Windows Server 2008, Active Directoy, DNS, Exchange 2010 ...and so on.  These servers all have .local addresses, which means of course that the SAN
    certificates have .local addresses as one of the SANs.
    I've read alot online about this issue, and am trying to find the most cost effective solution to switch numerous production servers running this configuration.
    The best solution I've come up with so far is...
    1. Virtual AD with new external domain, 2. Migrate Exchange CAS to this domain, 3.  Reconfigure network through the box.
    Obviously these steps will contain alot more details, but this is just the outline atm.  At best, I see me having to take a second box with me to each location to perform these steps, and I can't see it happening without disruption to the work flow
    of employees.
    Thankfully, all of these businesses are relatively smal...under 25 employees.  Still, I'd like to find the smoothest transition solution possible.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Regards

  • I am trying to add some music to my phone and the "add to" button is not there like it was in the instructional video.

    What is the Answer??

    Well there's not enough info to even guess beyond what I previously posted.
    My only "judgement" here is that whatever program you are using has questionable tech support if all they say is "it's Automator" and offer no further assistance as to why their program doesn't work on your machine and aren't even curious.

  • Does it mean that you express is bad when you plug it in and the light is a steady amber and my computer is unable to recognize it?

    Does it mean that your airport express is bad when you plug it in and the light stays a steady(not bliinking) amber and my computer is unable to find it?

    Thanks Bob for the respose. This is a unit that I have had and used for about a year. It was working perfectly, and then while being used, the green light all of a sudden went to solid amber and I haven't been able to get it green since. It does go green however for just a spilt second when plugged in and then returns right back to amber after it has been plugged in for a few moments. I have a feeling that it is history and is malfunctioning. I have tried a factory reset many times with no luck.

    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
    See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
    There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
    If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

  • What do you do when your contacts with IPHONES or IPADS are not showing up in blue in IMESSAGE on my IPAD. The are showing up in RED and not allowing me to IMESSAGE them at all.

    What do you do when your contacts with IPHONES or IPADS are not showing up in blue in IMESSAGE on my IPAD. The are showing up in RED and not allowing me to IMESSAGE them at all.

    It was suggested I move this question to IPhoto or IMovie which I did. 
    Well moving to a different discussion group did not provide an answer to this question either. But what I finally did was import one batch of photos and videos into IPhoto for a given day at a time. Working with these I could change the date and times in order to get them in the original sequench taken. Then I would create an album with that batch. These would all be on the same day (IMove was closed for this phase). Then I would open IMovie, generate the thumbnails for that album, and select the album I had created. This was necessary because the importing process in IPhoto was using incorrect dates for my video so it was a real struggle finding them in IMove until I developed this approach.
    I believe that this whole process was so screwy because I was importing from an external hard drive not a camera. I had these photos on a PC and did not have the original cameras to use to import directly which I am fairly sure would have made this easier!
