I have a problem, my wife has an ipad with photos , emails etc etc, she has recently got herself a new iPad Air, has now been using that for two or more months, more photos (new) more emails and other stuff. What she wants to do is get all she wants from ipad 1 to new ipad without finishing up with 2 of everything which happen on previous occasion. I realise that she needs to tidy up ipad 1 first and get rid of thousands of emails etc. I need help.
Thanks kiwihdrider

HT4623 my first gen i pad does not have the software update selection on the general settings screen. How do I update software.

My first gen iPad does not offer the software update option on the general settings page. How do I update without this selection

That only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases - you may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

Shuffle (2nd Gen) not been used for a few years - not working at all - any ideas?

My Ipod Shuffle (2nd Gen) has not been used for a long time and now will not give any reponse at all. It won't charge and it is not recognised by ITunes - is there anything I should do?

Sorry... I did not notice your reply.
The initial blinking is good. That means there is a connection between shuffle and computer. But it should continue blinking or become a solid color (ON but not blinking).
It could be a problem with the battery. If a lithium battery is left completely drained for an extended period, it can become unable to hold a charge. However, it could also be a problem with the USB port (such as not enough available power or a USB device conflict). As a test, you should try shutting down the computer and disconnecting all USB devices, including any hub, except for standard keyboard and mouse (if normally used). If your computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power). Do this to reset the shuffle

Start up computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle by itself to a direct USB port on computer.

HT4623 I don't have a update button n the general settings, how can I update my iPad thanks

Hi there I'm trying to update my apps and it's saying I need ios5 and then I'm trying to up date it but my iPad hasn't got a update soft wear button in the general settings I can't do anything on it until it's up dateD but haven't got a clue what to do please help :)

If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

If you have an iPad 2 you will be able to update to the latest iOS level which is 6.1.2

How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Hello, my ipad has never been paired with any computer. My PC is ready to die and iTunes will not upload on it. My iPad is insisting that I connect to iTunes and I can't get out of that screen. How can I use my iPad without syncing it to iTunes? Than

Hello,
My iPad 2 has never been "paired" with any PC. My one and only PC is corrupted and will not, after many many attempts, download iTunes. When I turn on my iPad it insists that I connect to my iTunes. How can I avoid this and just get the iPad to work like normal? Any help is much appreciated

You cannot do anything with the iPad until you do as instructed by the iPad and connect to iTunes on a computer.
You probably need to restore the iPad and the only way to do that is via iTunes on a computer.
Take it to an Apple Store and ask for help at a Genius bar or take it to a friend's house that is running iTunes on their computer and try to restore it.
You will lose all of your data and settings now because you never backed the iPad up in the past.

I would like to update my ipad software but under general settings my ipad does not say update software and I would like to update to a ios 5.0 or higher how do I do this?

I would like to update the version of my ipad from ios 4.3.3 to a 5.0 or higher, but under my ger
nerel settings it does not say update software. So I would like to know how else I can do this.

Hello Babs713,
Which iPad do you have?
You have iOS 4.3.3; you need to connect your iOS device into iTunes, and update it in iTunes. To update over-the-air you need at least iOS 5.

HT4539 I need to update my iso but in my setting on my iPad I don't have a software update button in my general settings. Can you please help

Need to update iso but I don't have a soft wear update in my general setting

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.
iOS 5: Updating your device to iOS 5 or Later

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
