I do not have the update option in my settings?

How do I get the update option in my settings trying to update to iOS 5

That only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you are on iOS 4 then you will need to do the next update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off it via File > Transfer Purchases (you may also want to copy photos off the iPad as well) and then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'. You may also want to copy off the iPad any important documents, notes, files etc 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 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.

HT4623 My ipad does not have "Software update" option under General Settings

Trying to update ipad. My ipad does not have the "Software update" option referenced in instructions.

You only have the option if you are already running iOS 5. If you are trying to update the iOS, you have to use iTunes on a computer to update the iPad.
Instructions here for all iOS versions. Make sure that you go down to the section about using iTunes. The first part of the article only applies to you if you are already running iOS 5.

The update to iOS 5.0 & higher is an erase/restore deal, so make sure you follow the directions here to update your phone:

I am trying to set up family sharing and do not have the setup option when logged in, help!

I am trying to set up family sharing and do not have the setup option when logged in, help!

Hello Carney10,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
When you say you do not have the setup option for Family Sharing, that seems like you log into the iCloud System Preference but the "Set Up Family" button is not there.
Is your Mac updated to Yosemite?
Family Sharing - Apple Support
iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite are required to set up or join a Family Sharing group and are recommended for full functionality.
Where in the setup are the options not available or working?
OS X Yosemite: Set up Family Sharing
Best regards,

HT4972 I do not have an update option in my general/setting area on my iPad 2

I have been trying to update my iPad 2 for days. I do not have an update option and I have tried updating from iTunes. I get an error stating the network has timed out. I have never selected for the time out. I have version 4.3.

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

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. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I do not have the adobe option in my open in.

Yes and the only options I have are numbers, print, and e-mail. Before I updated I had the adobe icon and some others but now I only have the before mentioned ones.

I do not have the hdv option in the new project menu

Hello all as my title says I do not not have the hdv option in my new project menu. I have tried reinstalling and that did not work. Also I do own the software.

Welcome to the forum.
Check two things first:
When you go to Help>Transfer Activation, do you have that option, or is it grayed out?
Look at Export Settings, and do you have any HD Export settings?
If you do not have the Transfer Activation, or do not have the HD Export settings, then you full-paid version has likely reverted to the trial.
This was somewhat common with updates to CS4, but much more rare with CS5.
If your full-paid version HAS reverted, then follow these steps:
If possible Deactivate (probably cannot do this)
Uninstall PrPro
Download and run the Adobe Cleanup Utility CS5 several times, rebooting between each run
Install PrPro CS5
Immediately update to the latest version, before launch
Launch and test
Did that bring the Presets back?
Good luck

Why does my grandson's iPhone 5 not have the "None" option in his billing info and my iPad mini does. We both live in Canada.

Why does my grandson's iPhone 5 not have the "None" option in billing info? I have it on my iPad Mini and on my iPhone 4S. We both live in Canada within 20 minutes of each other.
I bought him $30.00 worth of iTunes gift cards, he loaded them, but it won't let him use them. It just goes to his previously entered Visa card which he no longer has and it won't let him unselect it either. Sounds like theft to me!

Because you that's not a supported bluetooth profile on the iPhone... In order to sync contacts with a handsfree system, the system needs to support the PBAP bluetooth profile. If it does, then the contacts will sync automatically.

My Envy 7645 does not have the grayscale option in advanced set up to print in black and white

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that your HP Envy 7645 does not have the grayscale option in advanced set up to print in black and white, on Windows 7. I am happy to help! It is possible, that you may only have the basic driver installed, instead of the full feature software and drivers. I would recommend to try our HP Print and Scan Doctor first, to see if ti can resolve the issue automatically. Otherwise, please try the following steps: Uninstall the software. Uninstalling the Printer Software.Clean boot the computer. How to perform a clean boot in Windows.Disable any Antivirus programs. Disable Antivirus software.Disable any firewall programs. Turn Windows Firewall on or off.Create a new user account. Managing User Accounts and Logins (Windows 7).Reinstall using the HP Printer Install Wizard for Windows.

HT4972 my iphone 3gs does not have the update software button how do i update the software

my iphone 3gs does not have the update software button how do i update it?

It isn't in the device pane. If you have selected your iPhone, then on the right side you should see information on what is contained on your iPhone. There should be a number of tabs towards the top, Summary, Info, Music, Photos, etc. Not necessarily in that order. On the Info tab is where you should find the tab. It should look like this.

My iphone 4 has face time capability but does not have the face time app in settings to turn it on. I have done a restore and it didn't do anything. Can anyone help?

There is no FaceTime app. To initiate FaceTime go the contact page of the person you want to FaceTime in your Contacts app and select FaceTime at the bottom of the screen.
