My iPad 1 can not load many apps, is there anyway round this

I would like to load hangout but as I have iPad 1 it's operating system is not correct. How can I get round this?

What version of iOS do you have on your iPad (Settings > General > About > Version) and which app is it ? If it's this app, Hangout, then it only requires iOS 4.3+, which the first gen supports (it can be updated to iOS 5.1.1). If your iPad isn't on iOS 5.1.1 then see this page for how to update to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
For other apps, some developers have previous compatible versions of their apps available in the store - if an app is free then you could try downloading the current version on your computer's iTunes so that the app is in your purchase history, and then on your iPad go to the Purchased tab in the App Store app and see if you can download an older compatible version of it.

My iPad is suddenly not loading any apps. When I click on an app, the screen flickers to black and then back to normal, but will not load the app. This is ALL the apps, not just one. Have tried rebooting, to no avail.

Was a Restore one of the things tried.? [Attach the iPad to your computer and in iTunes click on your device. On the Summary page click on Restore and go through the process. Be sure to click YES to Restore from a previous backup.]

My ipad has stopped updating apps. It doesn't even ask for password, it just oges to the apps screen showing empty progress bars. I've re-synced account and restarted but with no luck. Other than deleting the apps is there anyway around this?

OK. I will work backwards.
You certainly don't want to have to delete apps every time that they need an update, for any number of reasons. Losing data first and foremost would be a drag, but the overall hassle would be absurd. All things being equal, you should be able to update apps in the future after you delete them and reinstall them. I delete and reinstall apps all the time and I am also able to update them when updates are available for the apps. I just wanted to know if you had any success in any fashion installing apps.
Resyncing/refreshing the Apple ID/iTunes account wouldn't seem to be the issue either if you can download apps or other content from the iStores. Your ID is being accepted.
That leaves us with I'm not sure what. But I think I would try this trick fix and see if it helps.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date one year ahead. Try to update the apps again. If you get an error message, go back to the settings. Correct the date and time (set automatically) then go back and try to update the apps again.

Why am I being asked for my billing info for updating free apps? This has never happened before! Now I can't update anything. Is there anyway around this?

I am being asked to provide my billing info for updating free apps... This has never happened before. I don't have a credit card so is there anyway around this??

The only way is to create an Apple ID without a credit card. The one you currently created will not work, it has to be a new one, and use this support document to do it. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2534 Make sure you follow the directions exactly.

I can not load the app store on my imac

I deleted the app store because it was not responding and try to relaod it and I couldn't. Now I can not add it back. I'm trying to download mountain lion.

Installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo reinstalls the App Store for you.
Restart your Mac after the combo is installed.
It's ok to do this even though you already have v10.6.8 running on your Mac.
Make sure your Mac qualifies to run Mountain Lion before purchasing.
See Step 1 here > Apple - Upgrade your Mac to OS X Mountain Lion.

My iPad 3 is connected to Internet but I can not load new apps or tunes

I have checked my apple I'd, verification etc but every time tI try to download anything from iTunes or app store it will not work it just says loading! But does nothing updates are the same. My iPhone 4s works perfectly on the same wifi network. Please help.

Try this. Sign out, restart and sign in again.
Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap your ID and sign out, restart your iPad.
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.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again. See if that helps.
You can also try rebooting your router - unplug it for about 39 seconds and then plug it in again.

On my IPAD I have two games apps stuck on waiting, in the apps store they say installing. I cannot delete them or get them to install, the icons do not have crosses on them if I hold them down. I have reset the ipad and can still load other apps.

Have tried other suggestions on the community but none seem to work. This is the only apple unit I have I do not have laptop or ipod. Any suggestions

Well, typically one of the fixes that I would suggest is to try to delete the waiting icons. WIFi in a public places like McDonalds, Starbucks, B&N, etc. is not the greatest and I would avoid those places for downloading and updating apps. But I do realize that not everybody has access to Wifi in their homes.
These are all things that have worked at one time or another for other users. Hopefull one of them will work for you. Just ignore whatever does not apply or anything that you have already tried.
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.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. 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.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

I bought a book. It closes within a minute of opening. I can not use it. Is there support for this or can I get a refund?

I do not have this problem with any other book. Is there a recourse or a way to get help?

i think, it is authorized and under guarantee.

You can only update the iPad to iOS 5.1.1and you cannot go any higher. If you never updated that high, you can do so by using iTunes on your computer. You will have to connect the iPad to your computer with the cable and launch iTunes
You can read more here. Make sure that you read the section about using iTunes. The article starts off with using the Settings on the iPad for WiFi updates. That only works with the iPad 2 and higher that is already running iOS 5.

I gave my ipad 2 to my brother last month. After that he erased all content and settings, sign in with his apple id. The next day until now, I found out that I can not udpate my apps both on my iPhone and iPad Air. I had create new apple id, change my password, delete the icloud acc. But still I can not update my apps. I have many of red notifications on iPhone and iPad Air. What should I do? Thank you in advance.

1. It is never a good idea to include personal info like your email address or Apple ID in a post on an open forum.
2. The email you received DOES NOT say your Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this iPad. The email informs you that your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad. Fortunately the iPad is yours. The message confirms that. If your Apple ID was used to unlock an iPad that was not yours your would then know to change your password. Since the iPad is yours you do not need to change your password.
Is your iPad working?

Your profile indicates your Mac is running v10.7.2
If that is correct, updating your system software may help.
Click Software Update from the Apple menu.
Restart your Mac after updates are installed then try the App Store.
If you can't update that way, there's a workaround.
Install the OS X Lion Update 10.7.5 (Client Combo)
Then restart your Mac and try the App Store.

Quick update, the duplicate of the comic-con episode downloaded succesfully, and so has the first episode of Supernatural season 8. Blue dots appear to their left in the library.
All the Vampire Diaries episodes (except the bonus comic-con double) have vanished, but I paid for them !
They're not anywhere on my harddrive either.
Which is new by the way, this is a new MacbookPro, literally set it up today.
So it would seem this is a case of purchased and pseudo-downloaded episodes that ended up beinge gobbled up by some iTunes black hole, leaving me with no money, and no episodes.
Need help, confirmed.

Recently I can not open any app. in my Ipad except original ones. How can I fix this problem?

You do NOT need to restore your iPad.
I believe that the problem is that there is a disconnect with your iTunes account and your iPad. What you are experiencing is a somewhat common issue after you sync your iPad, update your device - it could be a number of reasons that are causing it. the recommended fix is to download another app in order to "reconnect" your ID and iTunes account to the iPad.
You can read more about it here. You will need a WiFi internet connection in order to fix it - or you have to be able to sync with your own iTunes library.
iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased from the App Store
But this is what it says in the article.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If none of your user-installed apps will launch, there could be an issue with Apple ID authorization. Download and install a free (or paid) app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information. You could also remove an app from your iOS device and download it again from the App Store or sync the app from your computer.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

After downloading the new update ios 6 for the iPad , I can not find the YouTube app

After downloading the new update ios 6 for the iPad , I can not find the YouTube app. Is there a way to get the YouTube app back?

It's now not part of iOS 6. However, you can download the YouTube app at http://itunes.apple.com/app/youtube/id544007664.
