IPad software update from iOS 5 to iOS 7

Hi all I am trying to update my iPad software from iOS 5.1 to iOS 6 or 7 but every time I go to software update keep telling me device is up to date. And I cannot install app because all the new apps asking me to update to iOS 7 so I could download them

If iOS 5.1.1 is up to date then you have a 1st generation iPad and cannot update further. For your app problem, see:

    You can't update if you have the iphone 3G.
    If you have the 3GS then update using iTunes.
    But sounds like you have a 3G.

    You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
    Try again to see if the problem persists.

    These are user to user forums. Apple does not participate here and does not respond to posts. For the record, since the iPad 2 supports iOS 8 any attempt to update the iPad 2 will result in an update to 8.1. Apple only supports updating to the latest version of the operating system that the device supports.

  • IPad capacity drop from iOS 7 to iOS 8

    Hi,
    I updated from iOS 7.1.2 to iOS 8 this evening on my wi-fi only 16GB iPad mini w/ retina display (model ME279LL/A). I noticed after the update that the available space on my iPad had dropped about 600MB. After connecting to iTunes further noticed that the capacity of my iPad dropped from 12.80GB to 11.74GB. What happened that I lost over 1GB of capacity?
    I restored the iPad and recovered from my backup. Not sure what else could be causing this issue. 4.26GB seems like a lot of space to lose to formatting and whatnot.
    Thanks!

    From what I've been hearing, iOS 8 itself takes up about 4.5 GB of space. Apple of course figures you won't need space anymore since you'll just store everything in the cloud now... lol.

  • I have IPHone 4 but y software update says iOS 5.1.1.  Doesn't this mean that I have an IPhone 4S?

    I have an Iphone 4, buy my software update says iOS 5.1.1.  Doesn't this mean that I have an Iphone 4S?

    iPhone 4
    iPhone 3GS
    iPad 2
    iPad
    iPod touch (4th generation)

    So, you do not have to worry. You've still got iPhone 4 only. For more information regarding iOS 5.1.1 update visit this link http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1521

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

  • Update from IOS 4.2.1 to 4.3.5

    How do i update an iPhone 4 with IOS 4.2.1 to 4.3.5?  Every time i connect it to iTunes (Windows 7 laptop), 2-3mins before finishing to 2 hour download, the screen will freeze and a window will pop out saying "cannot download software, timed out".  I tried this on 5 occasions but always got the same response.
    Can anyone help me find the solution to this?  Appreciate your help. Thanks.

    I got it. IOS 4.3.5 does not update on a Windows PC with a Windows 7 Starter version.  I tried connecting the iPhone to a Windows PC with Vista and didn't have any problem updating from IOS 4.2.1. to 4.3.5.
    Just thought you want to know.
    Thanks.
