I have issue to update iPad iOS from 5.1.1 to 7

I cannot update my iPad iOS to the newest version. My iPad is iPad 1. The iOS is 5.1.1.

You can't the iPad 1 can only be upgraded to iOS 5.1.1
If you need newer version of iOS then that you must get a newer iPad

    how to update Ipad 2 from IOS 4.3.5 to IOS 5? Itunes won't let me do it because it keeps showing error messages asking me to check if my network is active.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 7.1.2. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
    You can no longer update to iOS 6.x, or down grade the iOS.

    iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
    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 antivirus 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 7.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
    How to Upgrade to iOS 7
    The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
    There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
    To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
    Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
    Go into the iPad's Settings.
    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
    To upgrade using iTunes:
    First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
    You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
    Now you are ready to begin the process:
    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.
     Cheers, Tom

  • HT4623 How do you update iPad iOS under Settings/General/Software if you don't have a software button option?

    How do you update iPad iOS under Settings/General/Software if the Software button is non-existent?

    You do not have iOS 5 on your iPad so you have to update by using a computer via the latest version of iTunes. You can connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under the devices heading. Click on the Summary Tab on the right. Click on Check for Update.
    After you update to iOS 5 or later, you will have Software Update in you settings and can update via WiFi OTA. If you have the original iPad - you can only upgrade to iOS 5.1.1.

  • My iPad 2 gets hanged often after updating my iOS from iOS 7 to iOS 8

    my iPad 2 gets hanged often after updating my iOS from iOS 7.1.2 to iOS 8,what should I do?

    I'm sorry, but Apple does not provide a downgrade path for iOS. Because downgrading is unsupported by Apple we cannot discuss it on these forums.
    You may leave comments at Apple Feedback.

  • Having issues with update to iOS 8

    Having issues with update to iOS 8, wheel keeps spinning with 9 hrs remaining to complete update. What are my options?
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    I am a windows/mac user... And I was  Linux user for several years...  And so far I have been really happy with apple but this problem is frustrating.
    I don't understand:
    1)Why can't I go back to iOS7 since this was apparently the most stable version for my iPad ?
    2) Why is apple not doing anything about it,  ?
    3) If the problem is that my iPad's can't fully support the features of iOS8, why on earth have they made it available to iPad 2?
    Any way, I will just wait a bit longer and probably start looking in to a Samsung tablet or something....
    Cheers,

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.

  • HT4623 How to update iPad iOS 5.1.1

    How to update iPad iOS 5.1.1??

    If you need serious updating you might be in the market for a new ipad. If you do that, you can sell your ipad, though you won't get much $ for it these days. However, if you have a very Senior citizen in your life you might set it up for them with family pictures, music they loved years ago, some books, and get them online. These also help memory. Someone out there might find it a priceless gift.
    Also, the Apple online only Certified refurbished Store has deals on refurbished ipads. Each comes with a brand new front and back cover, a brand new battery, a full one year warranty including 90 days of free phone support, and it comes in a white box like a new ipad with the cables. We have two and they have been great. Shipping is free. I suggest if you buy refurb, you only buy it on the Apple website. 
    These sites listed below might help you get some older versions of apps.
    Hope this helps.
