HT4623 why can't I upgrade to iOS 6 on my Ipad 1?

Some of my app upgrades require an iOS 6.1 but when I try to update my system... it says my software is up to date at iOS 5.1.1

That is the latest version for the original iPad. iOS 6 requires an iPad 2, 3rd or 4th generation, or iPad mini. The original iPad is just getting too old - likely too slow of a processor, not enough RAM, etc.

HT4623 Why can I not update my iOS 5.1.1 to anything higher. Apps I had that worked, no longer work because they require higher than 5.1.1

I have an iPad with ISP 5.1.1 which I can not seem to update to anything higher than 5.1.1.... The apps that we're working on 5.1.1 but are upgraded to ISP 6 and/or 7 will no longer work. When I try to open them I get a message saying App expired. Wth??? Help plz... ( first apple product)....

I Don't understand why the apps would expire. Apps that work in iOS 5 should still work on your iPad. Did you try updating these apps and it was unsuccessful?
And and I've never heard of apps expiring.

HT4623 Why can't I update my iOS on my iPod touch

I am unable to add any apps to my device due to the iOS I am running but when I tried to update it I was not able to. Why is that ? Please Help.

If you have an iPod Touch 2, iOS 4.2.1 is the last iOS supported on that device.
You will not be able to add newer iOS apps, but you still can choose from well over 60,000 vintage iOS apps.
The trick is finding them. One way you could try,

why can't I upgrade my iphone 4 to IOS5 or later

What happens when you connect the iPhone to your syncing computer and start iTunes? Are you prompted that there is an upgrade available? What version of iTunes is on the computer? What Operating System is on the computer? What version of iOS is on the iPhone?

Are you sure it's a 3rd Gen? If it's an 8GB or 16GB model then it's a 2nd Gen and 4.2.1 is the latest
What happens when you try?

Why can I not upgrade my iCloud storage on iOS

Why can I not upgrade my iCloud storage on iOS

Hard to say why that would be. Suggest you contact iTunes store support for help with this: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html. They normally deal with iTunes and app store issues, but they should be able to tell you if there's an issue with your iTunes account that is preventing the purchase and how to correct it.

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).

IWork purchased on disc in 2011. Why can't I upgrade free?

I bought iWork on disc at BestBuy with my MBP in 2011. But when I click on Pages, Numbers or Keynote in the App store I get the message, "Pages 4.3 is already installed but was not purchased on the App store. Would you like to purchase? $19.99"
Why can't I upgrade? I did buy it, but at the time it was not even AVAILABLE in the app store.

Then why do we read this ....
Pricing & Availability
iWork and iLife for Mac come free with every new Mac purchase. Existing users running Mavericks can update their apps for free from the Mac App Store℠. iWork and iLife for iOS are available for free from the App Store℠ for any new device running iOS 7, and are also available as free updates for existing users.

Why is it that when i upgraded to ios 6, my ipad 2 no longer connects to known networks automatically

why is it that when i upgraded to ios 6, my ipad 2 no longer connects to known networks automatically?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

HT201263 My iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5 yet most apps run on iOS 7. Why can't I make the update on my iPad 1? Is this so I buy another iPad 2+? Now why would I want to buy something that will be obsolete in a few years?

My iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5 yet most apps run on iOS 7. Why can't I make the update on my iPad 1? Is this so I buy another iPad 2+? Now why would I want to buy something that will be obsolete in a few years? I really want to purchase an Live TV plan yet I need iOS 7 to run most TV apps.
Can Apple tell me why my iPad 1 is obsolete?
g

It's not obsolete as much as the first gen simply lacks the power to run the newer operating systems. IT doesn't have enough RAM. If someone managed to hack it to get iOS 6 or 7 on there they'd just have a slow, boggy and unresponsive device. (think putting windows 7 on an old laptop.
Unfortunately software moves faster than hardware. Every thing goes obsolete. I've had my ipad 2 for two and a half years now and I know it only has so much longer left to it too. Just the 'joys' of advancing technology.
