Ipad 5.1.1 shows 6.0.1 Firmware update while 6.1 is already out

My two ipads both show 6.0.1 firmware in setting->firmware update, but 6.1 is out now. Why does it show not the latest firmware? Do i have to update to 6.0.1 first???

It's possible that the Apple server you connect to in your country does not have the iOS 6.1 update installed yet.

  • Just purchased new iPad.  Map app shows my current location in another city.  Can't figure out how to change to correct address.

    QUESTION - just purchased iPad 2.  Map app shows my 'current location' in another city.  I can't figure out how to correct the address.

    That is a problem with the WiFi-only iPads.  Location is determined by the routers "within reach" of your iPad.  There apparently is a database somewhere that tracks the location of routers and that is used to determine the location of the iPad.  It's been known to produce some really cockamamie results.
    In my case, it was off by a reliable 200 yards for maybe the first year that I owned the iPad.  Then it mysteriously began to recognize my actual location.

  • Ipad 2 Lost tv shows and movie rental after update 6.o.1

    Yesterday  I synced and updated the software on my ipad 2. (it had been a while). Before the update I had 2 movie rentals, and 2 seasons of a TV series, which I had purchased and downloaded from itunes. Before the update, I would go to the "Videos" app and they were all there. After the update, the only option in the "Video" app is to watch Music Videos, or go to Store. The top banner only says Music Videos. When I look at the Storage on my ipad, they are clearly taking up space, and if I try to "sync" them again, itunes tells me I do not have enough space.
    I have tried to "search" for them and they are not found.
    Help!
    Mandy

    "Sync" them from iTunes on your computer... is that what you mean? And it is not working because you do not have enough storage capacity left?
    Go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Videos. Do you see the movies/TV Shows in there?
    Have you tried restarting or rebooting the iPad since this problem arose?
    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.
    Reboot 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.

    My iPad 4 does not show up on my TV screen when in AirPlay mirroring mode using WiFi.  The iPad displays AirPlay set to TV with the Mirroring On (green).
    My iPad IOS software is 8.2 and my Apple TV software is at 7.1.  The TV displays the Apple Menu.  The “Settings” does however displays the General menu allowing me to see:
    Apple software:          7.1 (7003)
    Apple TV:                   Model No. A1464, Part No. MD199B/A
    Signal Strength shows 5 circles.
    It does not display the iPad screen but when I use the BT Sport App I can hear the sound but there is no video.  I have searched the internet for a solution to no avail. The problem first arose when the IOS was at 8.1+ but it worked correctly briefly when I updated to IOS 8.2.  Can you help please?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.

  • My mac, ipad and apple tv share the same itunes account.  Why do movies rented from itunes on my ipad or mac not show up in my apple tv?  is there a way to get them there?

    My mac, ipad and apple tv share the same itunes account.  Why do movies rented from itunes on my ipad or mac not show up in my apple tv?  is there a way to get them there?

    Rentals are one-time only downloads, they will not show on other devices/computers for redownloading.
    If you rent a film on your iPad or Apple TV then you can only watch it on that device. If you rent it on your Mac then you can move it from there to your iPhone or your Apple TV (if it's a first gen Apple TV) : FAQs about renting movies from the iTunes Store :
    If you rented the movie on your computer, you can move it to an iOS device or Apple TV (1st generation). To do this, connect the devices and sync using USB. When you move a rented movie from your computer, it will disappear from your computer’s iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as much as you want, but you can only have it on one device at a time.
    If you rented the movie on your iOS device or Apple TV, you can’t move it to any other device.

    How to delete the apps in the purchased tab in appstore which i no longer have on my ipad. They still show in the purchased tab.

    It's not currently possible to permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't appear in the Purchased tab : hiding and unhiding. If your iPad is on iOS 6 then you will need to do it via your computer's iTunes.

    Pad2, the new iPad Supported Video Formats & Movie Formats
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    Here's one way to install. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
    Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
    Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

  • My ipad is no longer showing all my videos, even though i have the option set to show all, even those that are in my cloud. I can't do anything to get all my videos to re-appear. any help?

    My ipad is no longer showing all my vidoes, even though i have the option set to show all, even those that are in my cloud. Any suggestions??

    Close the videos app and launch it again.
    To close an app, drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    if they still don't show up after you launch the app again, try resetting the iPad.
    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.

  • I have tv shows in my library but when I try to put them on my ipad it doesn't show the tv shows in to sync

    I have recently reinstalled itunes on to my laptop. I have tv shows in my library which i downloaded from itunes but when I try and sync them to my ipad it doesn't show them in the sync page. can anyone help ?

    Have you tried closing the iBooks app completely and seeing if it works ok when you re-open it ? From the home screen (i.e.not with the iBooks app '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 iBooks app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try 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.
    If neither of the above work then you could also try deleting the app and re-installing it - as long as the books are still in the store and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used then you can re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519
