HT4623 Why can't I have IOS 6 on my iPad?

I understand that it can only have IOS 5.1, but there are apps that demand IOS6 (and they don't require a camera).

The iPhone 3GS got a severly neutered version of iOS 6 lacking in many features. Also the smaller screen demands less RAM than the iPads larger screen
The fact is Apple deemed the iPad incapable of satisfactorily running iOS 6 and decided not to release it for it.
Had it gotten the update it probably would have made the iPad unusable.

  • HT4623 Why can't I download iOS 6 it gets to end then says error

    Everytime I try to download the new iOS 6 software it comes close but then tells me it failed, how can this be resolved?

    Connect your iPad to iTune (computer) and Check for Updates. Backup before you proceed with update.

  • HT4623 Why can't I download iOS 7 on my iPod?

    I am very frustrated. I just wanted to download some podcasts but apparently MUST download the podcast app requires iOS 7.
    So I checked for a software update but my iPod says that there are no updates. I currently have 6.1.6. I saw on here that iOS7 is compatible (mostly) with the iPod touch so why does it not show up for OTA update?
    Do I have to download it with my computer?
    I just really cannot believe how NOT user friendly this process has been.

    You have a 4G iPod since there was not 6.1.6 for a 5G iPod. As Apple said in June, iOS 7 is not compatible with the 4G iPod.
    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory (RAM). The 4G iPod only has 256 MB

  • Why can't I install iOS 8.0 on my iPhone 5?

    Why can't I install iOS 8.0 on my iPhone 5?  When I try to install it, a message says that I need 4.6 GB of storage available to install the update to the operating system, although the specs from Apple state that the update is 957 MB.  I have 1.2 GB available.  Do I have to delete all music (4.6 GB) and some of my apps to install this update?

    If you have a Computer with iTunes you will not need to make that room available.  If you do have to upgrade via WiFi you will have to make nearly as much memory available as it says (a little less typically works).  Any Apps you purchased will be available in the App Store if you go to Update and click on Purchases.  Then you will see all the Apps that you have ever purchased from the App Store and you can download them for free.  With regard to any of you Photos or Music that you may need to delete to make room you will need to ensure that those were already in some Backup at iCloud or on your Computer.  Even though iOS 8 is less than a GB the process of downloading and unpacking and preparing things takes the extra memory.

    Which iPad do you have?  The original iPad is not compatible with iOS 6...does not have enough processor power to support iOS 6.

  • Why can't we have a real 'finalise'

    Hi :)
    As we know, all advice about the 'finalise' method is to never
    use it, don't override it, pretend it doesn't exist, and if you ever
    actually do write code in it, make sure it doesn't throw an exception,
    and make sure (can't remember if this is just a 'myth') that it
    executes in a very small time period.
    Now, i don't have a problem with the requirement for this implementation,
    but why can't we have a 'finalise' method that we can implement code
    in.
    Personally, I would love to have such a method where I can close my
    resources, even do other things to conceptually 'end' my objects life.
    Consider how ridiculous it would be if an OO language said: "yes,
    there is a constructor, but don't write code in it ..., oh, you wan't to
    'initialise' your object you say? well, create a pattern or interface or
    whatever, implement an 'init' method, and always call that'. Anyone
    who had a programming language tell him that would drop it for
    a more sensible one.
    So come on ... we have a method (even as many as we feel like, assuming
    signatures) to 'establish' our object, why are we disabled and disallowed the
    option of having one to finalise it (even; not sure of the appropriateness: ones
    matching the constructor signatures).
    who's with me? :) !

    Where is your problem ?
    Use a finally clause...Hence the fragileness. Out of the population of
    developers, what percentage do you suppose remember to
    do that? It would be MUCH better for the VM to take
    care of it, destructing/finalizing objects either as
    soon as they are no longer strongly reachable (hard to
    implement), or at least at SOME point before the app
    dies (the GC COULD have been designed to GUARANTEE
    running before app termination)What I mean was that you can do something (clean up used connections, streams etc.) but let the GC do the rest. By the way it isn't guaranteed that the GC will run a full garbage collection before you close.

  • Why can't iMovie on iOS create portrait movies?

    If I take a video on my iPhone in portrait mode and then import it into iMovie for editing, iMovie always crops it.
    Why can't iMovie on iOS create portrait videos?
    Splice can create portrait videos!!!
    Martin

    I don't know why, as we are all users here no one will really know why.
    I assume it's because TVs only play wide video.
    But if you really want to see it in future I suggest you tell Apple:

    If enough peoploe ask they will change it.
