HT4972 I have the original iPad with the original iOS, as I've never updated before. How do I do this?
I have the original iPad with v3.2.1 and have never upgraded. How can I upgrade to the latest iOSfor the original iPad?
Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the latest compatible version.
The third generation iPod touch and original iPad can’t be updated past 5.1.1.

I have an original iPad with the latest software. When I send an email, the keyboard opens with halk on the right side and halk of the left across the body of the email. How can I change this?
Tap and hold on the Keyboard key at the bottom right side of the right portion of the keyboard. You can use the Dock and Merge option from the menu.
Alternatively you can drag the keyboard down and move slightly left, to get it to merge. -
I have just purchased the new iPad with the camera connection kit. I just want to be able insert my SD card into the Pad and view my photos, not import them.Can this be done and how? Please advise. Thank you.
See this article: iPad: Using the iPad Camera Connection Kit
No, this canot be done, afaik. When your camera or card is connected, you will see the thumbnails in the camera pane, but not full size preview. So to browse your photos on the iPad you will need to import them to your camera roll. But you need not delete them from the camera or card after importing, so you might simply import selected photos to your camera roll from the camera grid and then delete them again from the camera roll after importing and browsing, without removing them from the card/camera.

Since I have connected my iPad with the MacBook through ICloud I have problems in Preview of opening PDF- and JPG-files. Does anyone have a solution for this?
I'm not sure I understand the connection between iCloud and this problem. Is it simply a problem of coincidental timing (ie, the problem happened after you set up iCloud)? If so, there's almost certainly no connection between these two events.
Where are you getting the files you're trying to open, and what specifically happens when you try to open them? -
I have an iPad 3 or the new iPad with the normal charger.. my iPad is not starting is there any way to format it? if not will the apple guys be able to access my data?
Honestly, I don't think that they have any other way of accessing anything on the iPad than any other user has. The Apple Store genius will just put the device through the standard troubleshooting steps - in your case probably try to restore the device to factory settings and if that doesn't work, then they will make some sort of offer for a replacement assuming that your iPad is still under warranty.
If I'm not mistaken they will probably erase the device in order to try to "fix" it. That's what restoring to factory settings does. I assumed that you were concerned about losing data - but if you are concerned that they are going to see something that you don't want them to see or access, I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen. -
I have just purchased the new iPad with the camera connection kit and want to be able to view my photos full screen and not import them. Can this be done and how? Please advise. Thank you.
When connecting the Camera Connection Kit to a camera or SD card all you see are the thumbnails of the photos. I suggest you review those, select the photos you might want to see full screen, then import them to your iPad. After viewing them you can always delete them if you no longer want them on your iPad.
I also suggest Keeping the photos on your camera or SD card until you import the to your computer and back them up to at least one other location. -
Why can't I open some of my documents on Pages even though I created them all on the same IPad with the same Pages ap?
I think I know the problem because I've had it myself. I didn't upgrade iWorks on my iPad, but after Apple made changes to iCloud (concurrent with Mavericks) any docs passing through it were modified and made unreadable. Even though, as you say, they were created on my iPad using the previous version of iOS Pages, which I didn't upgrade.
iCloud is the culprit, if your iPad settings had iCloud>Documents & Data enabled, the docs were modified and disabled in the cloud.
I made a further mistake. After I saw this happening, I didn't think to turn off auto updates, and Apple pushed the new version of iOS Pages onto my iPad. The result was that ALL my docs disappeared from the iPad, and from iCloud.com also. I have not been able to recover them.
I've been talking to the Pages engineering team about it. If they come up with an answer, I'll post it here. Meanwhile, get those older files backed up somewhere safe if you can. -

I got the 1st iPad but it needs iOS on it I don't know how to go about getting it can someone help me
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 5: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
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.

My Macbook Pro is frozen on the login page with a white screen and only my login picture. How do I fix this? I can't turn it off and I closed it and let it charge but it's still not working. It's only 3 months old and was working perfectly fine 30min before this happened.
Hello Kierasully,
I would start your troubleshooting with the article below for issues of not being able to log in to your Mac. Start with booting up in to Safe Boot as well as resetting PRAM on your Mac. If that does not work, then verify the hard drive with booting to the Recover HD and go to Disk Utility to verify it.

Why doesn't the all iPads with the ability to update not have Siri?
I'm a huge supporter of apple. Had the iPod, itouch, and the iPad. Both the iPod and the itouch I got near their release date. So, I was kid of mad that the newer ones had better features for the same price. Then I get the iPad 2nd generation. I thought because I waited I would get all the features of the newer ones with the update feature; but no. I feel limited once again. I persuaded my friends into buying the iPad airs because they liked my iPad so much better than their tablets. I even taught them how to use them only to find out that theirs are better. They have Siri. I could care less about the second processor, air drop, better mic, retina display, lighter, more durable iPad Air, but I got robbed of a feature that should come with an update. I'm very disappointed in the company. By the way I'll never buy from apple again unless my old one gets Siri. Samsung had it with their older phones. The galaxy is beating apple in many ways.
Your old one is physically incapable of running Siri. This is akin to a person being upset that their 3 year old DVD player can't play BluRays...i mean the disc fits in the try so it should work right??????
ANd honestly, I've had Siri on my iPod and I think I've played with it twice. It has to be on the internet to be used so unless you have a 3G device she's inaccessible much of the time
You gotta have siri, buy a new device. Your iPad 2 will NEVER be able to handle the software. -

I have iPhone and iPad with the same apple ID. How to share both my devices for Find My Friends ?
Hi -
I have an iPhone and an iPad using the same apple ID. I'm unable to share location from both the devices at the same time for "Find My Friends". I am only able to pick one device. Any help to share both the devices is greatly appreciated.Find my friends is designed to locate DIFFERENT Apple ID's. So if you want to use FMF for this purpose, you would need to create a different apple ID for one of your devices.
OR, you could use the Find My iPhone App. Which will display ALL of your devices.

I am getting poor wifi, about fifty percent less than original iPad with the new iPad. Why?
What can I do to get the new iPad wifi to be more effective. It is 50% less effective.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Additional things to try.
Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
