Should I upgrade iPad (1st Gen) from iOS 4.2.1 to iOs 5.1.1?

I am using iPad (Wi-Fi only) from last 2 years mainly for web surfing and emails. iOS 5 is sure slick and tempting. Should I upgrade or not? I dont want iPad to get sluggish after update, in that way I am better off with iOS 4.2.1 running smoothly on it. Help pls.!

I dunno sabatoge.
It seems like it would be nice to have ipade 1st gen to get 6.0
But it would certainly help safari from crashing.     Still.
I wouldn't,t say that 5.1.1 is the LAST UPGRADE.          Apple might still do something.

I have an ipad (first gen) all loaded with my music, apps, movies, etc... Today I got the newest ipad. How do I transfer my stuff to the new one? Thank you!

I got a new ipad. How dod I transfer everything from my old 1st gen ipad? Thank you

Transfer purchases from the old iPad into iTunes, backup the iPad with iTunes and sync one last time.

IPhone 4s iOS 6.0.1 and iPad 1st gen. iOS 5.0. What do I need to do?

Wifi connection problem between iPhone 4s iOS 6.0.1 and iPad 1st gen. iOS 5.0. What do I need to do? I've reset the network on each and nothing. Please help.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

HT4623 Isit possible to update an iPad 1st gen OS 5.1.1 to OS 6?

Is it possible to update an iPad 1st gen OS 5.1.1 to OS 6?
Could be easier than find allll the old apps I had and I now are upgraded to a more recient OS

If there were older versions of those apps that worked with iOS 5, you can try:
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps
Or find alternative compatible apps:

Hi Demo,
Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
The iPad is first generation
OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
Thank you in advance for your time

Photos not syncing to stream from 4s to iPad 1st gen

Hi
I have an iPhone 4s 16gb and an iPad 1st gen 64gb. I'm currently travelling (so no access to my laptop) and trying to sync all photos from my phone to my iPad so I don't lose them when I get a new phone. Most have synced successfully but some older photos don't appear on my iPad at all? I don't want to lose these photos and can't think of a way to get them from my phone to my iPad!
Also, any suggestions how to store the videos from my iPhone as I read somewhere that iPad 1st gen isn't compatible with videos from a 4s?
Lots of travelling memories I don't want to lose!
Thanks in advance!

IMovie on iPad 1st gen

Just wondered if anyone knows if iMovie will work with the 1st gen iPad?
The info on the Apple site shows the iPad 2 as one of the compatible devices but I can't for the life of me think why it would not be compatible whith the iPad 1st gen? Yes it doesn't have a camera but importing footage from and external video camera is pretty straight forward and lets be honest however the great the iPad 2 camera is it's not exactly practical!
Interested to hear people ideas.

I will be one of the (up to 15 million) Gen I iPad users that will be terribly upset if Apple doesn't support both iMovie and Garage Band on the original iPad w/vers 4.3.1.
Many video cameras record direct to QuickTime format(.MOV) and I have purchased the camera kit etc. just for moving files to edit on my iPad. ReelDirector works but its output resolution is limited (it's really designed for iPhone native resolution).
On another topic, the only reason I haven't purchased the Guitar accessory (Amplitude Rig) is because I can currently plug directly into my Macbook. With Garage Band on iPad, now the Guitar Rig for iPad looks more enticing.
I believe Mr. Jobs, in his iPad II keynote said "now the iPad 1 was no slouch when it came to processing power..." (before announcing the new chipset).
Please Apple, don't leave some of us 15 million iPad 1 supporters in the rain a mere 11 months after we bought our iPad 1!!
P.S. As I typed this, I just got an e-mail from Best-Buy that ALL iPad 1's were on sale for $100 off original price (until supplies last)

IPad 1st Gen Apps Crashing (Mail, Settings, etc.)

Some books form iTunes Store makes iBooks crash on iPad 1st Gen

I have had this problem only once before when I bought "The Fifth Witness" by Michael Connelly.
It would open to the first page and then automatically go back the the home page. I would try again and noticed the little dots at the bottom
move 1/4 to half way and iBooks would crash again! This became very frustrating as there is no explanation online about this particular
problem.
Then my wife got her iPad 2 and I downloaded the same book to hers and it loaded without a problem!
The same thing happened this week when I bought "Foundation".. it just crashes on my iPad 1st gen but not on the iPad 2.
I have even tried closing all other aplications as to give iBooks all the resources my iPad has to offer, and the same thing happened.
I love the new iPad but cant put reason to buying a new one because there is nothing wrong with my old one.
From my experience it appears as though some of the books in the iTunes store are only compatible with the new generation devices.
This leaves the rest of us who have devices that are barely a year old to find other ways to use the item we have purchased for use on Apple products!
I know I'm not the only person having this particular problem. My wife and I own quite a few apple products. This is the only one that frustrates me.
Apple please fix this one!

iBooks app has just been updated to v 1.3.1 ; Apple says it fixes some "stability and performance issues".
Launch the AppStore and look under updates .

Video Thumbnail images gone - iPad 1st gen, iOS5

After updgrading my iPad 1st gen to iOS5, all of my video thumbnail images are gone.
The iPad just displays a white box with a gray flat screen TV icon for every video file listed under Movies or TV Shows
This is most troublesome when I touch the TV Shows button and I get a page full of those white boxes with the TV icon - and, as has always been the case, there is no name for the TV show. So I'm lost in the white boxes trying to find LOST the TV show.
Any thoughts on how I get my thumbnails back?

If they are in your iTunes library on your computer why don't you try syncing again. Make sure that all of the shows are selected to sync along with the sync Movies heading and then sync again.
If they are only on the iPad it might be a good idea to transfer the purchases into the iTunes library. Connect the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes and right click on the device name and select Transfer Purchases.
If you have tried syncing, try restarting, resetting and quitting the videos app.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
To quit the videos app - Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

How to get photos off iPad 1st gen

Anyone know a way I can get photos off an iPad 1st Gen? It is not recognized by iPhoto 9 that is currently running on Mavericks.
This should have been synced a long time ago but my wife never did and now has photos on it that she wants.... I know, I know....
Tried:
- Using Image Capture - does not see it
- When I launch iPhoto, it says "Loading" and never does anything.
- iTunes does see it but that doesn't help to get photos off of it.
- Saw a program that let's you transfer files off but it cost $30 and thought there might be a way to do ift for free.
Thanks, Jeff

The iOS version has nothing to do with importing photos.
Where are the photos located? iPhoto will only get photos that were saved to the iPad like saved from an email attachment. Those are in the Saved photos album
If the photos are in another album they were synced to the iPad. To get those you need a third-party program like PhoneView or TouchCopy
