Ipad 1 and iOS5 find my iPad no longer working

Since upgrading to iOS5 my iPad 1 can't be found using "Find my iPad" via iCloud.
The find option is switched on in the settings panel, and location services are also on.
There's no problem with finding my location on the map though, so I don't think it has anything to do with the iPad itself, just how it's communicating with the outside world.
Any ideas?

There is no legit way to go back at all.
People complain on these forums about each and every single software version ( no exceptions). Most never have an issue of any sort.
Just as a hospital is full of sick people, this support forum is full of people with issues. That certainly does not mean that most people are sick or that most have issues with software.

Ihave synced my IPAD to my IMAC and the password on my IPAD no longer works. Can anybody help?

I synced my IPAD 2 to my IMAC and my password on my IPAD no longer works. My IPAD is disabled for longer and longer after each password I try. I have tried my IMAC password and also my APple ID password. Can anybody help?

If you can't remember the passcode that you set on it (which won't be the same as your iTunes or Mac passwords unless you set it the same), then you will need to connect the iPad to the computer that you normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPad and re-sync your content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPad into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808

My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'. Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6. I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works. Her phone says its on but when I try and locate it from either my phone or laptop it shows it offline. Any suggestions. It's my only peace of mind! Thanks!

Does she have her own iCloud account? You can have more than one iCloud account installed on a device, and some users install a secondary iCloud account which is common to others in the family to allow "Find My iPhone" to be used from one account while keeping separate iCloud contacts, mail, etc.
But with iOS 7 although you can still have multiple iCloud accounts installed, only the "primary" iCloud account supports "Find my iPhone". So if her iCloud account is the primary, you can no longer track her from your iCloud account. Is that what happened in your case?

What "locking function" are you talking about?

Nothing. It's nothing to do with PSE; this is a limitation of Photos, as is the loss of being able to use an external editor without exporting copies of your images.

Make sure you have the latest version of parrallels. Think older versions are not compatible.

HT201320 This last week, I updated my iPhone with iOS6 and now my Yahoo Mail no longer works. I've deleted and restored the account without fixing the problem. The iOS update did not effect my iPad. Anyone have a suggestion?

This last week (of 17 Sep 12) I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 and now my Yahoo mail does not work. I keep getting a "Yahoo server busy" message. This problem has not effected the update to my iPad 3 - it works fine. In addition, I have deleted and added my Yahoo mail - same result. Looking for ideas on repairing the link between iOS 6 and Yahoo. Cheers

Same here, albeit with a 3G and both a work Exchange account and personal Gmail are out of action. Reentered my password on the Gmail to no avail.
Unfortunately it seems that increased success has come too fast to Apple, it's starting to display Microsoft-like behaviors, e.g., releasing stuff and letting the customers serve as the beta / guinea pigs.

IPad no longer working with my HP wireless printer

My HP LaserJet CP1525NW Color printer was working flawlessly with my iPad Air and now no longer works. Any suggestions?

Did you try restarting the iPad or rebooting your router? Maybe either of those would help.

IPAD: Forced Shutdown During Update. iPad No Longer Working! Help?

I did a force shutdown during the latest ios6 bug fix update and now my ipad will not work at all. iTunes does not reckognise the device when I connect it to my pc via usb. I have tried everything I can think of to have it start but with no success. It just keeps displaying the Apple logo, then flickering, then showing some text data in white, then goes to a blank black screen, then the logo and all over again. It does shutdown but cannot do a startup to the swipe lock page.
It would be hard to believe one could fully kill an ipad so quickly and easily. Please tell me that this is a fixable problem! Any way to get it to start again?
Thanks!

You will need to restore your iPad to factory from recovery mode and connecting to your computer. Connect your iPad to your computer and hold the home and power button down for 15 to 30 seconds until you see the silver apple. Once you see the silver apple let go of the power button but keep holdng the home button until you see the itunes logo and white usb cord. At this point you should be able to restore in itunes.

Update ipad no longer works

Since th e update a few days ago my IPAD has not worked. I logged into Itunes and the only option I had was to restore to factory settings. I did this thinking that my apple account wolduld have all my apps available later. Now no apps I paid for and cant get email to set up?

Same as mine, My JBL onbeat mini worked fine with Ipad last night and now it says " may not be supported"
Sick to death with Apple and what they have become, will not be tied down to them any longer considering the alternatives on the market today.

IPad no longer Working.

My iPad is no longer working as an attempt to fix a broken screen went wrong and the motherboard was shorted out. I have heard that in Australia you can take a broken iPhone into an Apple store and get it swapped out for a working unit for $200.00. Can I do this with my iPad?

Make sure that you read all of this text that was copied from the link that I referenced at the end of my post. I think this is what you are referring to.

I have just installed iOS7 and now is my Airport no longer working. Very irritating. Has anybody an answer to this problem ?

Just installed iOS7 and now my Airport express is no longer working. Very frustrating. Who has a solution to this problem.

I'm curious what's happening for others with Airport Express devices that aren't working. In my case, it's simply now impossible to get sound coming out of it. All my devices and computers initially THINK it should work - they all show the Airport Express. But when I try to play, it doesn't work, with slightly varying responses:
iPhone 5 and iPad 2, both on iOS7: if I choose the Airport Express, they continue to play as if through the Airport for about 20 seconds (with progress along the little progress/scrub bar), and then just stop playing. No error message or anything.
On my computer, through iTunes 11.1: it thinks for a while, with the "Connecting to ___'s Airport Express" thing going at the top of the screen, until I get the "An error occurred while connecting to the airplay device ... the network connection timed out" message. The little chevron (?) in the upper left side, that lets us "Choose which speakers to use", becomes orange rather than blue, and when I click on that, the Airport Express listing now has an exclamation mark inside a warning sign.
On an iPhone 4, with iOS6: basically the same as with the iOS7 devices. It seems to "think" it's playing through the Aiport Express, and then after about 30 seconds just reverts to the iPhone speaker and stops playing, with no error message.
Note that through all this the Airport Express has its green light and seems to think it's working fine, with an "Excellent" connection, according to the Airport Utility.
I've tried turning basically everything off and on; everything is as up to date as I can make it, except that iPhone 4; I've forgotten and added networks; I've reset network settings; I've added and taken away a password from the Airport Express Airplay speakers (because, hey, why not). I'm not sure what else there even is to do: maybe tomorrow I'll head in to an apple store and see if I can use the AirPlay from my iPhone to play on one of their Airport Expresses? If they even have any set up?
Outside chance of the cause - could my wifi network somehow be confused because it's dealing with both iOS6 and iOS7? Does that make any sense at all? (Not that my wife is going to be the least bit eager to upgrade to iOS7 after hearing me swear profusely over the past couple of days!)

I updated to Firefox 3.6.8 and now I get an anycolor start page that keeps popping up and my google toolbar search no longer works.

Ever since updating to 3.6.8 I open firefox and get two tabs. One for my homepage and one which is an "Anycolor start page". Hugely annoying and can't stop the 2nd tab from popping up every time I start Firefox. Also my google toolbar search function no longer works. Type in a search and hit enter and nothing happens.

I have exactly the same problem. I entered Firefox in safe mode and deleted AnyColor from my addons. But now when I click on the addon button this is what I get:
"A script on this page may be busy, or it may have stopped responding. You can stop the script now, or you can continue to see if the script will complete.
Script: file:///C:/Program%20Files/Mozilla%20Firefox/components/nsExtensionManager.js:623"
But nothing happens and I have to reboot my computer because it freezes on this message. Damn, I wish I had not upgraded to Firefox 3.6.8
Somebody please help! Thanks

The option "Show my windows and tabs from last time" no longer works and reloading Firefox does not fix it.

I have been using this for as long as the feature has been available along with App tabs. All of a sudden it no longer works. I have tried resetting the option to something else and then back again. I've also tried reloading and reinstalling Firefox. Neither of these worked. I can't see any other anomalies. It seems to be working fine otherwise. I use Windows 7.

Hello Carla5, '''UNCHECK the "Warn me when closing multiple tabs"''', go from Firefox button > Options to access the options window > Tabs panel > Uncheck '''Warn me when closing multiple tabs''' [ ] , click OK to save it, exit firefox and restart it.
