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

  • After upgrading ipad to ios7.1.2, keep prompting to restore ipad

    i have upgraded my ipad from ios4.3.3 to ios7.1.2.
    After upgrading, i have to setup my ipad and was stuck at restore. It kept prompting me to restore my ipad but it did not work.

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • I upgraded IPad to IOS7.0.4 and Itunes to 11.1.3.8, now sync will not work

    I upgraded all 5 of our IPad Minis to IOS 7.0.4 and the Ituens to 11.1.3.8 and now I am unable to sync any movies, TV Shows, or Music to any of the devices.  Itunes says its updated and that they are synced, but when I try to go to them on the pad, there is only the ICloud version available for those I have purchased through ITunes.
    I am not even able to "Share" My Itunes Library through the WiFi in the house.  The only thing that is working is my AppleTV.
    I have tried rebooting PC.  I have rebooted IPad's.  I have restarted ITunes.  I have verified access and restrictions.  Nothing works.
    The only thing that I have not tried is resetting the Pads.  But I will say if I have to reset 5 IPads, 2 IPhones, 3 IPods and 2 AppleTV's every time an update is issued, I can tell you, I will seriously consider moving to another platform.  I moved to apple for the theory of simplicity, they are almost as bad as Microsoft at this point.
    Does anyone have any ideas?

    Finally, here is what I will have to do with 4 more IPad's, 3 IPods and I am not even updating the phones.
    I had to connect the Pad to ITunes and let it do its thing.  Because of whatever the error is, it take upto 20 minutes for it to finally get all the steps completed.  I then have to go into the Summary section and tell it under the IPad Mini Section (NOT the BACKUP section) and tell it to do a Restore.  I then have to wait for it to take over 30 minutes for it to kill the current setup and reboot.  Once it finally reboots I have to go into setup and tell it to setup as an already known Pad configuration.  This helps, but then I have to wait another 20 minutes till however long for it to install the media that it shows as part of the install.  The reason I say however long is because if I only had about 5 Gig of media on there at the time.  If I had it anywhere near full it would take much longer.
    Then, at that point I can finally make changes to the media.
    I also verified something else.  The only other thing that they all had in common was they were all trying to download a movie I recently purchased.  It was fairly large so I wondered if size was an issue or if maybe it was corrupted.  I deleted it from ITunes and the CPU.  Still had the problem.
    This is the third update from apple I have had to do this.  It is getting very old.  I left the MS platform for the same reason.  I dont have the time to spend fixing crap that Apple "Genious'" get paid to supposedly fix. 
    I appreciate the sugestion on the Hard Boot Process.  I will try that sooner next time, but I am a bit frustrated with Apple at this point.  Its no wonder they are loosing market shares.

  • How to delete book in FB2 reader after upgrading ipad to ios7?

    Aaster upgrating to iOS7 not able to delete book in FB2 reader. Please advice.

    Sorry, I totally forgot the terms and conditions but your answer was fully along the lines of the Apple support staff, which is just a waste of money.
    About the lack of professionalism we are experiencing I am seriously considering moving into Linux.
    In any case, I have solved the problem in the same way as with the upgrade to LIon.  I do not think I will be alone with this probelm so this is what worked for me.
    From (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3222240?start=0&tstart=0) we can modify the procedure as follows:
    If you are syncing your contacts with something, disable that for now. (Disable Contacts in iCloud)
    Archive your Address book by going to File menu, Export, Address book Archive.
    Close Address Book.
    Go to the Finder and while holding down the Option key, select Library from the Go menu.
    Navigate into Application Support/AddressBook.
    Delete addressbook.abcddb. (I actually deleted all files except for the folders)
    Open Address Book and see how it works. (It was totally empty)
    Turn Syncing back on if applicable. (activate again contacts in iCloud)
    --  Now it is working normally and all options are activated.
    The file you deleted is a database that indexes the raw data to make display, search, etc faster. However, it does seem to get corrupted with updates. 
    This, at least in my case, did happenned again with the iCloud upgrade.

  • Hi there, I am not able to upgrade my iPad to ios7.0

    HI there, I have an iPad with ios of 5.11. Is it possible to upgrade it to an iOS 7.0?

    No. If it's a first generation iPad, it can't be updated past 5.1.1, and if it's a newer one, it can only be updated directly to 8.2.
    If you don't know what generation it is, append the last three characters of its serial number to http://www.everymac.com/ultimate-mac-lookup/?search_keywords= and load the page.

    Sorry... Not possible. You would need to sell the 16 GB and then buy a 32 GB.

    Copy the backup folder to another computer that can run the latest version of iTunes and restore on that one, make sure to disable autosync before you connect.
    Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
    The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
    iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
    Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
    Note: The "~" represents your Home folder. If you don't see Library in your home folder, Option-click the Go menu.
    Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the Application Data folder, click Start, and choose Run. Type %appdata% and click OK.
    Windows Vista, Windows 7, and Windows 8: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    Note: To quickly access the AppData folder, click Start. In the search bar, type %appdata% and press theReturn key.

  • After upgrading my ipad to ios7, the block cookies setting only has one choice: "always."

    After upgrading my ipad to ios7, the "block cookies" setting for Safari only has only one choice: "always."  No option exists for "never block" or "allow third parties."  Needless to say, this stops me from visiting a variety of websites.   Any ideas on how to get those other options to display?

    I met this question in a iPhone touch, at last we found the device was controlled by MDM profile before upgrade. After removing the Configuration Profiles in [Generals][Profiles], another two option display.

    Do you have a toggle switch on the side of your ipad, next to the volume? If so, try that.......it took awhile for me to find that answer by googling.......hope it works for you.

    Make an appointment at an Apple Store to have your device examined by a technician. Or contact Apple Support.

  • HT4623 Since I upgraded my iPad to iOS7 my wallpaper on the home screen is fuzzy and won't set?

    Is there a fix for the iPad after I have upgraded to the iOS7 my home screen wallpaper won't set and is all blurry?

    Try this. Go to Settings>General>Accessibility>Reduce Motion>Off. Then go to Settings>Wallpaper and Brightness and selet your wallpaper again - or try scaling the wallpaper again that you are currently using. If you have enlarged the wallpaper too much, then you lose resolution because you are enlarging the pixels and that makes the photos look burry.
    Something else that you can try is to reset the iPad. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears on the screen. After the iPad restarts, see what the background looks like.
