  • 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.

    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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Why can't I upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.6? My MPB spits out the disc before it ever appears on the desktop.

    Why can't I upgrade from 10.5.8 to 10.6.3? My MPB spits out the disk before it ever appears on the desktop. The Snow Leopard disk is brand new, was still in shrink wrap until I opened it. I do have the hard drive partitioned, running Win XP with Boot Camp, if that might be the issue.

    Hey vlntrg,
    I have a 2002 model Powerbook that will sometimes (most of the time) refuse to mount a CD or DVD. It just grunts for a while and then spits it back out. When this happens, I will slap the bottom of the machine several times with an open hand, not too hard and not too soft. I read this somewhere online (I forget where), and I was hesitant to try it, but it was cheaper than replacing the SuperDrive.
    This will often allow me to insert and use the CD or DVD. I have also noticed that I have less trouble when the machine is cold than when it's warm.
    I've not had this trouble with my MacBook Pro.
    Another thought. Would it be possible to boot your machine in target disk mode and update your software using a friend's Mac? I'm sure there are others here who can better answer that question.
    Hope this helps.

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:
    http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
