I have the original ipad. Today 2 inches of the screen went to straight color lines. Can't change it! Can't read or work. HELP!!!! Please : )

Sounds like hardware failure.
Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the red slider.

Safari on my iPad. I have an original iPad and since updating to the latest iOS safari forces me to restart the iPad about two to three times a day. Three problems: 1. It just blacks out. 2. The reading list does not delete after the story is read. 3. Ema

Since updating to latest iOS safari fails several times a day.
1. Just quits.
2. The items on the reading list will not delete after visited.
3. The screens goes grey when I go to email a reference.
Is the a solution other the restarting the iPad or is this something apple ought to fix?

See if the following help.
Try clearing Safari's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (and Clear History)
If that doesn't work then try closing Safari completely and then re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Safari 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
A third option is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Interesting observation. Thanks for sharing.
Did you have a technical support question?

I have an original iPad and downloaded the new operating system. Now' I cannot write on my Contacts or Calendar apps, and my Pages app (purchased) has lost the ability to use the bold, underline, and italics functions. Does anyone know how to fix these

I have an original iPad and downloaded the new operating system. Now, I cannot add to my contacts or calendar apps, and Pages ( which I purchased) is not allowing me to use the bold, underline, and italics functions. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

No, it stays with the current OS (iOS5 in this case) - Apple doesn't allow downgrading iOS
If you are syncing to a desktop, you shoudln't lose anything. If you aren't syncing, then that's the first thing you should do, to protect contacts etc.
the other thing is, when the iPad is connected to iTunes, right-click its name in the Devices list and choose Back Up.
That way, when yoiu do the restore, everything should come back as was.

I have what I think is the original Ipad, and it will no longer send out emails. Is it possible to update it, or am I just stuck with a $500 electronic device that will no longer work the way I need it to. Some of the original apps will no longer work

I have what I think is the original Ipad, and suddenly it will no longer send out emails and some of the apps that worked prior to the newer Ipads coming out will no longer work. Can this be updated, or am I stuck with an expensive electronic device that will no longer serve my needs?

Did you already update to the latest iOS; http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623

First and periodically double click the home button and close all the apps in the recently used dock. Then power off and then back on the iPod. This frees up memory. The iPad 1only has 256 MB of memory.
Next
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

HT4623 I have the original iPad and I don't have an option in Settings, General for Software Upates. The App Store only has a Spanish version. Does anyone know how I can update to iOS 5?

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).

HT4623 I have the original ipad and it does not show ios 6 available for download.

I have the original iPad and it shows no update available. I tried iTunes and it wont let me upgrade to ios 6. What is going on?

I have been looking all over and cannot find where they have said that. Strange that they wouldnt include it.

If you have inserted the earbuds or headphones all the way and tried more than one set, the iPad probably has a hardware problem and if no longer under warranty, you will have to pay out of pocket to get it repaired.

HT4972 I have the original iPad can you tell me the steps I have to follow to get iOS 5

I have the original iPad and need to be lead through updating to iOS 5

Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well 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 force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
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
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
When you have iOS 5+ installed you will get a Settings > General > Software Update option allowing you to do future updates directly on the iPad.

Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id

Can I have an iPhone, ipad and MacBook Pro with the same apple id. When I use I tunes it get confusing and I have a paid app that needs the same id

When syncing the iPhone and iPad with iTunes on your computer that is logged in with the Apple ID you plan on using on all three, the Apple ID should be transferred to the iPhone and iPad for the iTunes & App Stores on each device. If not, you'll need to sign out of the existing Apple ID on the iPhone and iPad followed by signing in with the Apple ID you want to use on both.
Keep in mind that all 3rd party apps include DRM protection which is tied to the iTunes account or Apple ID that was used to download the apps. With an app installed on your iPad and iPhone that was downloaded with a different Apple ID from the one you will be using now, you will need to use that Apple ID and password to install app updates for those apps. Not possible to transfer apps purchased with one Apple ID to another or to merge Apple IDs.

No

I have the new ipad and when I stretch the screen a horizontal line appears when I scroll whatever page or location I am on. The line is not there if the screen is minimised. Any solutions?

I can't personally as I never really liked nor used the picture frame feature in iPad. Just search in the App Store and read customer reviews and you'll likely find something you'll like.
