HT4972 I have the original IPad, can I update the ios?

We have the first iPad that came out. Can we update the IOS?

Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
See the Using iTunes Section Here...

FYI... the iPad 1 is not compatible with iOS 6...

  • I have the original iPad can I use a stylus pen to write in notes?

    I have the original iPad can I use a stylus pen to write in notes?

    One thing to be aware of is that capacitive stylii have a rather broad tip. This makes them feel more like writing with a marker than a pen. (though the width of the line is controlled by the software.)

  • Why my ipad can not update the ios7.1.1

    why my ipad can not update the ios 7.1.1

    Hello there, crivera350.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for if you are unable to update your iOS device:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
    Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
    Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
    Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
    When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
    iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
    Use iTunes to restore your device.
    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Is the original iPad capable of configuring the airport extreme 5th gen?

    How to set up hdd with airport extreme with iPad?

    Is the original iPad capable of configuring the AirPort Extreme 5th Gen?
    Yes, using AirPort Utility for the iPad.

    How to set up hdd with airport exreme with iPad
    You do not set up a hard drive with the iPad, you set up a hard drive using Disk Utility on your Mac. Make sure that the hard drive is formatted in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) before you connect it to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme.
    If you want to access data on the hard drive from the iPad, you will need an App like Filebrowser.

  • My 'the new iPad' won't update to iOS 6!

    My iPad 3 (the new iPad) can't find the update to iOS 6! I know iOS 6 has already been released as my iPhone 4S is currently running n iOS 6, but whenever I run software update on my iPad, all it says is 'iOS 5.1.1, your software is up to date.' any suggestions to this problem?

    Will connecting my iPad to iTunes 10.7 help me to update to iOS 6?

  • HT4972 I have the original iPad can you tell me the steps I have to follow to get iOS 5

    I have the original iPad and need to be lead through updating to iOS 5

    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
    When you have iOS 5+ installed you will get a Settings > General > Software Update option allowing you to do future updates directly on the iPad.

  • HT4623 Are the original iPad's not running the latest OS?

    My wife has one of the original iPads.  She tried to use the Target Store app and it told her she needed to update her OS.  We tried to update but is said the iOS5 was up to date.  Any suggestions?

    Original iPad cannot update beyond iOS 5.1.1. If you don't have it yet, connect to iTunes to update; you need iTunes 10.5 or later.

  • Safari on my iPad. I have an original iPad and since updating to the latest iOS safari forces me to restart the iPad about two to three times a day. Three problems: 1. It just blacks out. 2. The reading list does not delete after the story is read. 3. Ema

    Since updating to latest iOS safari fails several times a day.
    1. Just quits.
    2. The items on the reading list will not delete after visited.
    3. The screens goes grey when I go to email a reference.
    Is the a solution other the restarting the iPad or is this something apple ought to fix?

    See if the following help.
    Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (and Clear History)
    If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • TS3367 An iPad 2 and a New iPad are trying to FaceTime,  we get connected and the iPad 2 can hear the New iPad, but the New iPad can't hear the iPad 2?  Mute is off, volume is full on?  Anyone heard of this?

    Trying to FaceTime between iPad 2 and New iPad.  They get connected and can see video on both ends.  However, the New iPad cannot hear the iPad 2. The iPad 2 tried to FaceTime with an iPhone 4 with same results. Something is not set right on the iPad 2.  Checked for anything covering the microphone.  Anybody have an idea?  Maybe bad microphone? 

    You can restore the Air's backup onto the Mini - if not already in your computer's iTunes library then copy them over from the Air via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases (your iTunes downloads aren't included in a backup, the restore picks them up from your iTunes library).
    Deleting an app off one iPad won't remove it from the other, and yes, when connected to your computer's iTunes they will show up as different devices (you can change the names that they show up as via Settings > General > About > Name) and what you subsequently sync to one of them won't be synced to other unless you choose to sync it.
    If you will be using the same iCloud account on both then you can use Settings > iCloud to control whether your Safari bookmarks, contacts, calendars are kept in sync between the two.

  • All of a sudden, my display screen with fox fire enlarged, I can not return it to the original size, can not find the button to reduce it. If I go on line with Internet Explorer, the page size is normal?

    I thought it might have happened with an update - I used the
    computer software to look for any problems - I turned the power off and on again, fired irefox back up and still get the large display?

    I don't have ML so I can't comment on the back button but the problem with screen size may be a matter of you scrolling while pressing the CMD or CTRL buttons.     You should be able to adjust which of these to use through Systems Pref > Mouse and then Zoom control in the bottom box.

  • I Have a powerbook G4, can i update the software past OS X 10.4.11? if so, and how?

    If you want to run Leopard, you should max out your RAM.
    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)
    MB022Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (5-user family pack)

  • I have Single Edition. Can I update the content in my viewer?

    According to the FAQ -- "No. Once you publish content to the App Store with Single Edition, updates are not available to that content."
    But, within the forums people claim that you can fix typos etc. in a published Single Edition. Can someone clear this up? Would I be able to make text changes to a published Single Edition?

    What I've seen Adobe say on here in the past is that when an update the app changes the intent of the content, it is not acceptable.  However, making grammatical or typographical corrections seem to fall within a category of accepted use.
    Updating your Single Issue app to include a Spring catalog instead of the outdated Winter catalog, however, would not qualify as accepted use.
    Probably want to speak directly to your reseller or Adobe about the specifics though.
