HT4623 my first gen ipad wont update beyond 5.1.1 is there a fix for this

any way to update the ios?

I too have an iPad 1. Works great until today when I found an app which requires me to update it and it requires iOS 6.1 or greater. So I'd rather update my iPad 1's OS than pay big bucks getting a new one. Obviously there are those of us that love the technology and adopted it early on, but do not have the money to keep throwing at it.
Any suggestions? Go get a Surface and a case of RAID to go with it?

Ipad wont update past 5.1.1

My wife is an owner in a learning company, they use I pads in there instruction. She has a group of 5 out of 10 that will not update past IOS 5.1.1.
Please advise. These units are critical to her business. Breakdown of problem, purchased 10 Ipads, installed vendors app, All i pads work wonderfully, Vendor updated their App, we updated IPads, all work fine, Last Vendor update Failed due to IPads unable to update past IOS 5.1.1. Please Advise with any assistance or guidance.

If they're original iPads, they can't be updated past 5.1.1. Replace them with newer ones.

IPad wont update?

I am trying to update my iPad today. I was attempting to update to the newest version about, I think it was 4.3.5. I had whatever the most up to date update was before that. So I left it updating this morning when I went to work and when I returned this evening it was still on the loading screen with the Apple and the status bar still trying to update. I have canceled it 3 times and started updating it again. I have used the download version from iTunes and have even tried updating it from a downloadable file. No dice.
ANY HELP!!!!

Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school enviroment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.

Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

My ipad wont update, say not eligable for requested buil!

my ipad will not update to the latest version iso 5.0.1 it is currently running on 3.2.2, its give a message saying not eligable for the requested build!!!
i have always used the ipad on same computer! it has not been jail broken and i am running the latest version of itunes!!
Does anyone know what i can do to get this sorted please???

This device is not eligible for the requested build: Also sometimes displayed as an "error 3194." If you receive this alert, update to the latest version of iTunes. Third-party security software or router security settings can also cause this issue. To resolve this, follow Troubleshooting security software issues.

User name email was changed but my "sign onto Revel" form on my PC will not change to the new email. I cant sign on to my account from there so my ipad wont update. How do I resolve this please.

How do I change the "sign on to Revel" box when trying to get my PC to update my Ipad. An incorrect email seems to be permanently ensconced there preventing me access?

You are not going to be able to run your old system from the backup on this old computer as the hardware is incompatible.
You need to get a new computer or a refurbished one.

Try temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus.

My iPad 1's apps wont update?

My iPad 1 apps wont update. It has the loading bar half across the apps but when I click on it it says 'app name' could not be downloaded at this time. I have tryed signing out and back into my Apple account and restarting my iPad but neither worked. The strange thing is the new apps I try to download work fine. This is very annoying as I can't use the apps. Please help!

I've seen periodic flakyness in the App Store (mainly on the device) ever since iOS 7 was released over a month ago. Could just be another one of those moments, especially with the new iPad Air releasing today with many users activating & downloading.

Apps wont update on ipad 3

I have a 3 week old Gen 3 ipad 64gb, All of a sudden apps wont update, they just say waiting, I have tried rebooting, as well as deleating and trying to reinstall them. I have logged out and back in again to Itunes/App Store. This unit has pleanty of memory and Is brand new. Any advice?

Try the following:
1. Turn iPad off and on again
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo
3. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
4. Use iTune (computer) to update/download and sync to iPad

After i updated to IOS 8 my ipad wont download anything

After updating my ipad to IOS 8 my ipad wont download anything like apps, music,ibooks,app updates,etc. I do have a strong wifi connection, but when i click download, the item gets stuck preparing to download, and doesnt even get to asking for my apple ID password. Help?

I had the same problem, and I read on other apple blogs it is the WSJ app. After deleting the app, everything worked for me, so I think it is right.
Delete WSJ app.
Close out all apps (swipe up).
Shut down Ipad by pressing and holding restart button.
wait 15 seconds. Restart ipad.
Everything should work
With all the other people who have been having this problem and solved it by deleting the WSJ app, cant believe Apple hasn't blocked their app (it prevented all my podcasts, newsstand, and other apps from updating!!!)
