HT4759 Why can't I download the iOS6 on my iPad?

I'm unable to update software to iOS on my iPad. It's running 5.1.1 and says it's up to date. Also have iCloud on both.  I have the first iPad 16.9 and have also bought more space. I've updated my iPhone. Which I'm wondering is why my photos stopped syncing to my iPad. I just took a trip to Alaska and would very much like to view those photos on my iPad. Thanks!

The original iPad cannot be updated beyond 5.1.1 so it can't run iOS 6.  I'm not sure why your photo stream stopped working as you do not need iOS 6 to use it.  It may be an issue with your wifi as some users are having difficulty uploading photos to photo stream on their home wifi after updating to iOS 6 (particularly if they have a Comcast/Xfinity router).  To test whether that is the case, try going to a public wifi hotspot and taking a new photo, then see if it appears in your photo stream album in a minute or so.  If it does, that isolates the problem as being with your home wifi.
Until you can get this resolved, a work around is to import the camera roll photos and videos from your phone to your computer (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083), then put the ones you want to have on your iPad in a folder and sync them to your iPad by selecting this folder on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing your iPad.

  • Why can't I download the latest iTunes to my mac which is a 10.5.8

    I have got myself in a real mess, I installed the new iOS 7 onto my iPad and I don't like it so I imported all my new photos to my mac, then I reset all my settings on my iPad thinking that it would go back to the original settings but alas didn't work.
    Then I thought I would put up with it but now I cannot put my photos etc back onto the iPad because my mac needs the version of iTunes but when I try to install the new version I get a messy come up that iTunes cannot install this new version on my mac which is a 10.5.8.
    So now I am stuck with the software on the iPad I don't like and I cannot sync the iPad to iTunes
    So why can't I download the new version of iTunes to the mac which is 10.5.8

    Put simply, the minimum system requirements for iTunes have changed. You need a Mac running at least OS X 10.6.8.
    It's best you look online to see if your model of Mac can be upgraded to at least 10.6.8 "Snow Leopard". It should still be possible to order a copy of Snow Leopard if so.

  • Why can't I download the new version of Itunes?

    Why can't I download the newest version of Itunes? My Itunes program tells me an update is availible but when I select to download nothing happens.

    Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does that go through any better for you?

  • Tried repeatedly to download the ios6 on my iPad 3 and keep getting error. message.  How do I take care of this?  Said I could do it through iTunes but don't know if I have the last updated iTunes either, how can you tell?

    I have made numerous attempt to download the ios6 on my iPad 3 and it starts but then stops and gives me an error message.  Someone suggested that it could be done on my main computer in iTunes but that has to be updated and I don't know how to tell if mine has been updated or not.  How do I get this installed?  Anyone please help?

    We have three operational computers, one does not have iTunes on it.  Since Apple is saying I have more than 5 authorized computers, and I can't imagine what they are, I am afraid to deauthorize all my computers.  See what I mean?  I just wanted to ask the question about how I can find out WHICH computers Apple thinks I have authorized, so I can decide if it's safe to deauthorize them all or not. 
    You could have more 5 computers authorized if you ever, for example, reformatted a hard drive or replaced a hard drive without deauthorizing the computer first. Apple's system would see that as a different computer, even though you don't. There's nothing to be afraid of in deauthorizing everything and the reauthorizing what you actually have. You won't lose any data. Mistimp is correct, they can't tell you which computers are authorized.

    Why can't I download the free Apple apps for my new iPhone 5S? It was set up in store and restored from my iPod Touch 5.

    Are you logged in with the same account that was used to activate the phone ? If you are, and the apps aren't showing as free, then try logging out of your account by tapping on it at the botto of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if they then show as free.

  • Why can't I download the waiting songs on my iTunes? I have over 2gb storage free

    why can't I download the "waiting" songs on my iTunes ? I have 2gb of free storage

    I'm guessing because the servers or part of the network is still overloaded by millions of other trying to do the same.
    Some seem to think this helped:
    Adding Open DNS servers to network preferences (2012) - https://discussions.apple.com/message/17806286

    P.S. Punctuation would help the readability of your question.

    No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
    Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
    Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
    So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
    Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
    Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash.
    Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
    Apps that can display some Flash from the Web:
    Puffin
    SkyFire
    Photon Flash
    Browse2Go
    iSwifter
    Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."
