Ipad 2 won't update to ios 5 no matter what I try

I've literally tried everything, I've deleted my itunes twice to make sure I had itunes 10.5. Then everytime I go a try and updat it will take almost 4 hrs and once at 3/4 of the download it will say I have a network issue and go back to zero. I just bought this Ipad in august and I have no clue what to do please help!

If you are getting a network timeout error then try temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed. If that doesn't work then you could try downloading it via a browser : https://discussions.apple.com/message/16436025#16436025

HT4623 Why doesn't my iPad recognize an update to iOS 7? When I try to update, it says, "iOS 5.1.1 Your software is up to date."

Why doesn't my iPad recognize an update to iOS 7? When I try to update, it says, "iOS 5.1.1 Your software is up to date."

Because you have a 1st generation iPad and iOS 5.1.1 is the last update for it.
It will not get any further iOS updates beyond 5.1.1
iOS 7 requires at least an iPad 2

Ipad won't update past IOS 4.2

When iPad (first gen.) is hooked up to itunes and try to update it says IOS 4.2 is the current version. When we try to restore ipad, we get 'there was a problem downloading the software for the ipad. The requested resource was not found.' Running the latest itunes and Lion. Have tried the ipad on two different macs with same results. Pretty well stuck. Please help!

It just says that it has the most up-to-date software. From what I can tell, when they originally released the 3rd generation iPod Touch, the 16 gb one still used the 2nd generation hardware. At the time, it was still called 3rd generation. As recently as last summer when iOS 4 was released, it was still refered to as 3rd generation (the iOS 4 release information had asterisks on the 3rd gen iPod Touch to say that various features like multitasking wouldn't work with the 16 gb model). Now Apple seems to have retroactively decided to just call it 2nd generation. I'm not very happy since it was sold to me as 3rd generation...

Will connecting my iPad to iTunes 10.7 help me to update to iOS 6?

Windows 7 Won't Boot. Frozen no matter what i try.

Hello! My Laptop Is A Toshiba L755D-S5204.
& I'v had problems with it sense i got it 2 yr's ago "Brand new" & contacted before but i recieved no help for the issues i was having. but i'v had to tolerate it the way it was sense i'v been in & out of hospitals. & today it's taken all day to get nowhere.
But today i had a bigger issue, I can't get past the windows screen & a blue screen flashes than it brings me back to the Start Windows Normally Or Start Windows Fix Launch Startup Repair. & When i go into Repair it just shows a mouse & doesn't load anything but a black screen.
When i go to boot into Safe Mode it does the same thing. & I Never even got a Recovery disk for this laptop & it's always had issue's such as the DVD Drive has never worked. So now all i can use is a 8GB USB Stick to try & save this Laptop. Is there any Toshiba Software i can load onto a USB Stick to get WIndows to boot?
Help will be appreciated! I Want to fix this for good & can use any advice towards this model Laptop.
Also could use a bit of help Removing the DVD Drive. I Got a new one but never installed it & not exactly sure if it fit's but it look's like it does & maybe my only hope here. & If i reformat it i don't want to loose some stock Toshiba Software like the mouse functions & FN Key features.

It came with the recovery information on the laptop itself. If you didn't make the backup recovery media yourself, you might still be able to use the recovery utility. Work through the suggestions in this article:

Time capsule won't extend my network, no matter what I try

I have tried everything I can think of, but I just can't seem to get my TC to extend my existing wireless network. I have read the Time capsule "manual" but it's no help, and I have tried a few possible solutions available through Google - but to no avail. Is there anyway possible to get it to do this?

No "official" list that I'm aware of, but the following are the only ones I'm aware of that are potentially compatible:
o Linksys WRT54G or WRT54GS (not v5)
o Belkin F5D7230-4 and F5D7231
o BT Voyager 2091
o Netgear WGR614 v6
o Buffalo WGR-G54
As you can see the TRENDnet is not amongst those so I would seriously doubt that you will have any success in doing so. Sorry!

Firefox won't save my homepage no matter what I try. Help!

I have done everything it says in the troubleshooting helps, but nothing works. Everytime I save my homepage, close Firefox and reopen it, my homepage is reset to searchqu.com/406.

Hi zeemaster,
You could try using the restore to default option in the ''Tools > Options > General'' setting for your homepage. It should clear out any strangeness. Then you can set your homepage to whatever you like. If that doesn't work, you could take a look at [[Preferences are not saved]].
I don't know for sure, but it sounds like you might have been hit with some malware. [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Is%20my%20Firefox%20problem%20a%20result%20of%20malware?s=malware&r=0&as=s#w_how-do-i-get-rid-of-malware This article] will show you how to address it.
Hopefully this helps!

Why won't my ipod sync no matter what I try in support?

I've followed all error support for error 13019 on my 6gen nano and tried resetting, restarting, completely clearing my iPod and reinstalling and absolutely nothing works. Are there any other radical ways that may be able to fix this?

Did this work before with this iPod and that computer, and is not working now for some reason? Or is this the first time you are trying to use this iPod with that computer?
Is the latest version of iTunes installed, downloaded from here?
http://www.apple.com/itunes/
If you are using a USB hub, try a direct connection to USB port on computer. Also, you can try shutting down (powering off) your computer and disconnecting all USB devices. Then, connect only standard USB keyboard and mouse (if used), and start up computer. Run iTunes and connect the iPod.
completely clearing my iPod and reinstalling and absolutely nothing works.
If that means you did a Restore in iTunes, does that mean the iPod does connect properly and get recognized by iTunes? And you can complete a Restore successfully using iTunes, with no errors? The error comes up only when you try to sync (load media) onto the iPod?
If so, go to the iPod's Summary tab in iTunes. There is a checkbox there that says Enable disk use. Check it (if currently not checked) and Apply the change. See if that makes any difference with the syncing problem.
NOTE: If Enable disk use is already checked, try unchecking it and see if that makes any difference.

Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5?

Why does my camera connection kit not work with my ipad 1 after updating on ios 5? What can I do to make it work again?

It should. It will only respond if there's something on the card for it to respond to, so do you have pics on the card?
And if it's messing up; try giving the iPad a restart. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see hte red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and try again. That can clear up any glitches on the device itself.

Hello I went to wipe my 1st generation iPad and then tried to update the iOS now the iPad won't work at all any ideas what I can do?

Hello I went to wipe my 1st generation iPad and then tried to update the iOS now the iPad won't work at all any ideas what I can do?

You can't update the original iPad beyond iOS 5.1.1 so if you were already running that version, there was no reason to wipe the iPad to try to update.
Won't work at all, doesn't tell me the whole story. Does it power up but not respond to anything? Does it not power up at all? Some detailed information in context would really be helpful.
IF the device will not start up, try a reset. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple Logo appears on the screen.

My iPad won't update or let me log into Facebook - says not correct version, but when I check for updates it says it is up to date with 5.1.1?

The first generation iPad can't be updated past 5.1.1.

My iphone 4s won't update to ios 6! please help!

My iphone 4s won't update to ios 6! I tried by my iphone it takes so long updating then it ends saying error!! I tried by using iTunes too, when it's done and installing it says error too!! this got me crazy!! any solution ? please help!

I got instructions to connect my iPhone4 to iTunes. Each time I was prompted to restore the phone, I ended up getting an error message that the iPhone could not be restored. I checked that I had the latest version of iTunes-I did. I tried two more times and got the same error message. I disconnected the usb/phone, closed iTunes, and restarted the computer. This time the restore worked and iOS6 loaded. Unfortunately, the last backup to iCloud that I was told I had was in June. Don't know why this happened as it should have backed up every day. Now I am working through restoring my settings and apps from the last three months. Thankfully, I didn't 'upgrade' my iPad, so I have a template off of which to work. I hope this helps.

TS3694 My iPad won't update software saying it can 't connect to the Internet which is not true as you can see from me being able to write this. there is no error code. It just says unable to verify, try again later. Any suggestions?

My iPad won't update iOS 7.0.4 software saying it is unable to verify because it can 't connect to the Internet and to try again later. It doesn't display an error message number. Obviously I can connect otherwise you wouldn't be reading this. Any suggestions? Many thanks for your help.

You didn't specify which way you are trying to update - using the Software Update setting on the iPad or by using iTunes. I will assume that you are using iTunes because the kb article that linkd you to here was the one about iTunes error codes.
Quit iTunes, reset your iPad, restart your computer and try again. Disable your firewall and antivirus software of you are using it.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Ipad 2 won't update to ios 5 no matter what I try
