HT4972 Trying to get an update on my iPad because I have apps and when I try to update it tells me I need iOS 5. What do I need to do?

Need to update my iPad b/c my apps are trying to install updates but I'm getting the error message "need iOS5" but cant find how to do that.

If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

You can purchase Audio books in the iTunes Store App and they will be downloaded for playing in the Music App.
What two Apps are you talking about?

I do not use lightroom and I have a subscription so I can open all supported RAW formats. You will need DNG file for Your Camera's NEF files for use in Photoshop ACR version. You can open your NEF files in LR it seems so you could do all your raw conversion with Lightroom and save out Tiff files for processing in Photoshop. I do use lightroom for I do not need its library. Lightroom does not support layered files so lightroom is of no value to me. ACR UI is all I need having a second interface to Adobe Raw Conversion Engine would more annoyance than value to me.

Please help.

Is this music purchased back in DRM days? I don't actually have any iTunes music so I can't test with my iTunes 7.5, but I know that without iTunes 10 you cannot even connect to the store anymore. I wouldn't think that would require an active connection to the store all the time, otherwise how could you play music on a computer in the middle of nowhere? Did you do something to trigger iTunes suddenly wanting to connect and check on machine authorization?

That's not a good sign if it said it was going to send it to an email address you've never heard of. Contact iTunes Support and let them know this: http://apple.com/support/itunes/contact/

I cant get my home page back. it ways i have something open when i try to "RESET FIREFOX" HELP!!!

Please help me. I cant get the homepage back even when i try to "RESET FIREFOX" it just says its embarrassed and im old and i have no idea what to do?? I would appreciate any help. God Bless, jeri

Sorry, it's a little confusing. You get the "embarrassed" screen if Firefox crashed and isn't able to automatically restore your previous session.
If you unselect the old windows and tabs, Firefox should start up with your home page after that.
Or does it happen every time you quit Firefox and start it again?
What page do you want as your home page? You can check the setting in the Preferences dialog. These articles describe the steps:
* [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
* [[How to set the home page]]
If Firefox is ignoring your home page setting and showing a different page, it could be caused by one of your add-ons, maybe one that snuck in unexpectedly.
You can review your extensions and disable unknown or unwanted ones on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Command+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions.
When you first get Firefox, it searches your system for extensions, so you might see something associated with your security software. But generally speaking, extensions are optional and you do not need to enable any of them unless you find them useful.

Trying to install Creative Suite 5 design premium onto a mac retina and when i try to open the installer it says " install can't be opened. you should eject the disk image."

Repaired permissions and verified startup disk
Fully updated OS 10.8.5
Downloaded same image multiple times-same issue
Cleared hard drive space from 4.5GB available to 26GB available
What can I do to successfully open the installer?

Rsten where are you downloading Creative Suite 5 Design Premium from?

I can get sound for files ON my laptop but have no sound when I try to watch Hulu or use other web-based programs

My MacBook Pro has sound for files housed on my laptop (ITunes for example) but if I try to watch a web-based program like Hulu or Khan Academy there is no sound. How can I fix this? I was using wireless headphones a few days ago and it all worked fine but then the sound stopped on both the headphones and the computer. The video portion works fine, I just don't have any sound. I threw away the headphones and deleted them from the Bluetooth on the Macbook Pro but still I have no sound. Any ideas?

1. System Preferences > Other/ Flash Player > Advanced > Delete All
     Press the "Delete All" button
2. Install Adobe Flash Player.
    http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
   Download it first.
   The next step is important.
   Click Safari in the menubar and select “Quit Safari”.
    Follow the prompts and install it.
    Restart computer. Relaunch Safari.
2. Allow Plug-ins
    Safari > Preferences > Security
    Internet Plug-ins > "Allow plug-ins"
    Enable it.

Can't connect to imessage on my iPhone 5. It says waiting for activation and when I try to sign in tells me to check my network connection. I've tried resetting the settings and network settings, turning it off and on, and nothing works. Any ideas?

Does the same thing for FaceTime

So..any suggestions? Just to note, it is definitely without a doubt sim free and unlocked to all networks.
Thanks in advance.
"SIM Free" does not mean the same thing as "Unlocked". SIM Free means you can use it with any carrier, but it will lock to the first carrier whose SIM you activate it with. The ONLY source for truly unlocked phones is direct from an Apple store or Apple Online.

Trying to download the new Black Ops app and when downloading it says I don't have enough storage space. I made sure I had 1.31 GB of space(like it requires)but it still says I don't have enough space. I even tried to delete more 2.5 GB (I have iPhone 4S)

I was trying to download the new Black Ops (Strike Team) app and when I try to download it, it says I don't have enough storage space. I made sure I had 1.31 GB of space (like it requires) but it still says I don't have enough space. I even tried to delete more 2.5 GB (I have the iPhone 4S) and the app specifically says that is is compatable with iPhone 4S. I even tried rebooting the phone a couple times before downloading, but it still says the same thing.

The app you are trying to download my be a zipped file and more space than 1.3GB. go to settings/general/usage and delete what you no longer want to make more space

Hi.
I had a similar problem myself. This is what helped me.
I went to the App store app, scrolled to the bottom, logged out of the account, re logged in with my Apple ID. Then went back to app updates. Once I put in my ID password all was fine.
