Is it possible to update ipad 1 to ios7?

I'm gonna update my iPad (1st release) to iOS7. is it possible?
Tnx

Even if it were possible to update a 1st gen iPad to iOS 7, the performance would likely be pretty dismal. This is the reason why Apple has minimum requirements for iOS devices.

Updated iPad 2 to ios7 - Now all my music has disappeared..

I'm sure other people have had this problem but I don't seem to be able to find an answer so I'm gonna annoy everyone by probably asking this again.
Updated iPad 2 to ios7 weeks ago (whenever it came out), didn't seem to be any problems, listened to music only a few days ago, seemed grand, now hundreds of song gone, boom, no reason.
I know people will say 'Just hook it up to iTunes and resync yer library' but I can't do that. Unlike most people I don't have my iTunes set to sync everytime I connect to it. I have it set to 'Manually manage my music and videos', I hate being forced to do stuff! I don't have iCloud actived, see no point in it. So my music library on my MacPro just has a few songs in it, I never keep them on my MacPro, I use my iPad for music (or did before the unexpected cull).
If I connect to my MacPro, and click on "On this iPad" in iTunes, it's saying I have 1822 songs. It lists them all as if they are still there but every one of them, apart from about a hundred, have little exlaimation marks in circles beside them.
I understand that I can probably track down all the songs and put them on again, but it took me ages the first time round. I don't have that kinda time, especially when I wasn't the cause.
Anyone ever find out what causes this? And was a solution every put out there? Or am I going to have to head up in my attic and dust off all the old CDs again?

Did you actually sync the music to your device? If it is disappearing when your laptop is turned off it sounds to me as if you somehow set up streaming and didn't sync it.

Try and force iPad into Recovery Mode:
1. Turn off iPad. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, slide to turn off.
2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
5. Release the Home button
6. Open iTune (make sure you have the newest version of iTune)
7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
8. Use iTune to restore iPad
Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

Should I update iPad 2 to ios7?

Wondering whether to update iPad 2 to new iOS 7, or wait. Are there a lot of problems with the new system on the iPad 2? What's the verdict as this point? Many thanks.

I am using the iPad 2 with iOS 6.1.3. I like this interface and decided to take the advice of shldr2thewheelabove. I am still using the iOS 6.1.3 without a hitch. The only minor annoyance is that about 5 or 6 Apps can't be updated unless you update the system, so the APPS app keeps telling me there are 5 or 6 more updates available than there actually are. I will wait till the support community folks who know what they are doing give me the green light. Otherwise I have no need or desire to risk hassles for a new look I don't even care about.

TS3274 Updated ipad retina with ios7.2 I do not have full camera menu only have one sidebar for HDR ,square, movie modes. Missing other sidebar for filters etc

Can anybody help. I updated ipad retina with latest software ios7:2. I have only one menu side bar to select HDR square format and movie modes . I do not have the other side bar to select filters, panorama etc

Panorama, live filters doesn't available for the iPad. They're only available on the iPhone. But you can get the filters effect after you captured a photo and edit them in the photo album (Up right) and click on filters. Hope this helped.

Is it possible to upgrade iPad 1 to iOS7?

Does anyone know? Mine stopped updating at iOS 5.1.1, and insists this is completely up to date. It's an iPad 1.

iOS 5.1.1 is the most recent version for the original iPad. iOS 7 needs the iPad 2 or later. See > http://www.apple.com/ios

I have an iPad 1 that is currently showing software updated at version 5.1.1. Is it possible to update to iOS version 7 on this device? My goal is to get Garage Band on this device and the app store is telling me I need iOS version 7.

Hi,
If you really need to upgrade you can save a bit of money and get an older version than the ipad Air.
First, you can sell your ipad 1 to places like gazelle.com, cashforyourmac.com, sellyour mac.com, or many others out there. The sites I listed give you cash. At this point gazelle.com is giving $70.00 for any ipad 1 in 'good' condition. And cashforyourmac will give you $25.00 over what gazelle.com or sellyourmac.com offers you. Shipping is free.
Then, with that money, go the the Apple online certified refurbished store. As an example, a new 64gb Air costs $699.00. A refurbed 4th gen 64gb costs $529.00 and a 3rd gen 64gb costs $499.00. Personally, I'd skip the 3rd gen. So if you buy a 4th gen 64gb at $529.00 minus what you can get from a sale to above, you can get an ipad 4 64gb for just over $430.00, a savings of savings of about $270.00. (A new 32gb Air is $599.00, a 4th gen 32gb is $449.00, and a 3rd gen 32gb is not on the site right now.) Google it and check if you can get better offers anywhere else. But getting one from the Apple refurb store gives you an essentially new ipad and using the above sites, you're not locked in with a particular site which will give you a gift card and restrict you to their store/site.
Each Apple refurbished ipad (any version) comes with a new front and back cover, a brand new battery, same return policy, and a full one year warranty with 90 days of phone support. Each comes in a white box like a new ipad with the wall charger and usb cable. The only difference is that it says in small print on the bottom of the box that it is Apple certified refurbished. Also, if you buy refurbs, be sure to check the store many times a day. They can come and go quickly, so when you see what you want, buy it right away. Shipping is free and pretty fast. (We bought two a year and a half ago and they have been great!)
Hope this helps.

HT1414 is it possible to update your ipad without backing it up or transferring purchases when using another computer

Is it possible to update your ipad 2 to the latest software without backing it up or transferring purchases to another computer other then your own?

What iOS version are you on ? If 5+ then as I said, you can do it directly on the iPad via Settings > General > Software Update.
If you are on iOS 4 then you will need to connect to your computer's iTunes and transfer purchases and do a backup - updating to iOS 5+ from 4 or below will backup up the iPad, wipe the iPad, install iOS 5.1, and restore your backup and iTunes media content (if you don't transfer purchases and backup then that content will no longer be on the iPad after the update).

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:

Or find alternative compatible apps:

Dec 2014: update iPad 2, iPhone 4S to 7.1.2 but not to 8.1.2

Hello,
I'm new to this community and a few years as an Apple user.
It's now dec 17th 2014.
Is it still possible to update several iDevices to iOS 7.1.2, but not to 8.1.2? and if so, how do I go about this?
The devices are:
- iPad 2 running iOS 6.1.2
- iPhone 4S running iOS 6.1.2
- iPhone 4S running iOS 7.0.6
- iPod Touch 5th generation running iOS 7.1
Each of the above devices have never been updated to a higher version, so I don't have any back-ups of 7.1.2 in my iTunes.
I'm not interested to upgrade them to iOS 8.1.2 because I get too much conflicting reports on other websites (Macrumours, 9to5Mac,...) about it slowing down considerably the A5-processor devices (see my devices, they are all A5's).
Thank you in advance.
With kind regards,
Zendo

The update applied to the device is the update that the device qualifies for. In your case, all of the devices you listed qualify for the now current (Dec 17, 2014) iOS 8.1.2. If you update any of the devices you listed, they will be updated to iOS 8.1.2. You cannot install an intermediate iOS version (for example, iOS 7.1.2). Even if you had the .ipsw file (iPod Software Update) for your particular device with the version you wanted to update to, the update would fail as Apple checks the device along with what iOS version it's qualified for at the time of the update. If the iOS version you are trying to update the device to is older than what is current for your device, the update will not proceed.
You can always choose to stay at your current iOS version on your devices and they will run/work just as before. However, if you want to run more recent apps that require iOS 7.x - iOS 8.x, you will need to update the device to iOS 8.x
