So I've heard the iPad 1 is slow ios 5.1.1

I am thinking about buying my mother an iPad 1. I own the iPad 2 and have ios 6 but want to know how smoothly ios 5.1.1 which I think is the latest update runs on the original ipad. Also can anyone direct me to a video of its performance on ios 5.1.1

  • Is there a way to create albums on iPad 2 without connecting to a computer? I heard the iPad 1 did that? It's rather stupid that they don't have that function built in.

    If you are referring to photo albums no you can't create them on the iPad with the current iOS software. You could not do it on the iPad original either as stated above.
    You can purchase third party apps that allow you to do so. One app that I know of is called Photo-Sort. I am sure there are others available in the app store if you care to search.
    You can provide feedback to Apple here and let them know how you feel.

  • I'm on a prepaid plan for the 4s, i want the hotspot option which isn't offered on the prepaid plan.  heard the connection is too slow on the 4s only worth it on the 5 or 5s. would you agree? not sure how much the hotspot would increase my monthly bill...

    To use the hotspot for any of those devices, I believe you have to switch to a postpaid account and plan. You can see the pricing for the available postpaid plans under the "Shop" area of the website.

  • Typing on the iPad 2 very slow to respond with iOS 7

    Why is typing on the iPad 2 very slow to respond with iOS 7?

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.

  • My ipad won't turn on. Have tried to reset by pressing the two button at the same time. It work. Why is this happening? For the first time it happened to me after using the ipad 4 running on ios 7, for almost a year and a halftime

    My ipad won't turn on. Tried to reset and it work. I'm using ipad 4 with ios 7 and this is the first time that this happened to me.what is wrong with the ipad?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Why is the IPad 4 so slow to charge and fast to discharge ??

    Why does the IPad 4 discharge so fast and be so slow to recharge

    Hello, willismom. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Battery life can be difficult to troubleshoot as multiple factors contribute to how long a charge can last.  Graphic intensive applications, display brightness and data connectivity are just a few of the items that can cause the battery life to decrease rapidly.  I would need to know a little more information about your usage patterns to give you and idea on how to maximize battery life.  However, here are some tips on how to adjust settings and charge the device that may help.

  • Does the ipad run faster/slower with verizon 4g or 4g wifi without the verizon 4g option

    I'm looking at purchasing my first iPad and I'm not sure if it's worth spending the extra money to get the wifi and wireless or would it be just as fast to get the wifi version and use my 4g mifi card from Verizon?

    What will you use the 4g for? Do you travel often for work, go to very remote places? Why do you have mifi? Do you use your mifi with your phone on a regular basis? Can you use it for your phone and ipad? And don't you pay for mifi on a monthly basis even if you rarely use it? With 4g, you pay on a monthly basis so you might only need to do that a few times a year during the months you use it. I would call Verizon and find out. And I'm sure you're aware that they're always trying to sell you on spending more money so be careful how you word your questions.
    I quickly googled the mifi question and saw this article. http://www.zdnet.com/blog/apple/why-i-ordered-a-wi-fi-only-ipad/12470. Please read the comments to the article, too. Some agreed with the writer, while others had very different opinions. If you google your question, you'll get many opinions from professional tech people, users, and former users of 3g and 4g. This might help you make a decision.
    We got our first ipad, (64gb ipad 2 wi-fi only) for my husband in June and one of my sons got the same today. Both are refurbs from the Apple online store. They come with brand new outer shell, brand new battery, and full one year warranty (other places that sell refurbs probably do not refresh their refurbs as Apple does, so if you go refurb, use the Apple online store. They're great! We saved a lot of money, even with the 64gb. (I know people love their new ipads, but this way we didn't have to deal with the possible overheating, yellow hue on screens, etc. We did not get 3g because if we are somewhere and need 3g, we all have phones that we can use. And though we won't get Siri on ipad 2 when it comes out, we don't care about it - just enjoying the freedom of 64gb, etc.
    So, I suggest you evaluate your needs, check with Verizon, and google your questions. I'm sure you'll make the decision that is best for you!
    At any rate, enjoy your first ipad! We think you'll love it!

    Forgot to tell you -- to answer your question - I have no idea if the ipad runs faster or slower with or without 4g! (Verizon would probably tell you faster because they'll make more money, so I suggest you also google that.)
    Hope this helps!

  • Update the iPad 2 with new iOS uppgrade, but after the screen only show the apple and nothing else. has been the case since yesterday. have turned off the iPad and turned it on again many times, but still only apple shown. What should I do?

  • Safari and app store on the iPad  crashes with new iOS 5 and 5.0.1 update

    When clicking on the app store and while loading a crash occurs taking me to the home screen ( sometimes) this also occurse with safari  to running iOS 5.0.1 used to happen with the previouse ios5 version also.

    For Safari you could try clearing its cache via Settings > Safari > Clear Cookies And Data (and Clear History).
    After that try closing all apps completely and then do a reset and see if that helps. To close all apps : from the home screen (i.e.not with any app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of each app to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    To reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Does the iPad come preloaded with iOS 5?

    I'am wondering if the iPad 2 comes preloaded with iOS 5

    I'm not sure whether they've started to yet, but they will be - there may still be some with iOS 4 on them. If it's not re-installed then you can update to it for free.

  • Why is the ipad 2 so slow with the ios 8.o.2 update?

    After the update to ios 8 my ipad 2 wifi is a lot slower than before it is possible to return to ios 7?

    The first thing to do is update your iPad to iOS 8.1. This latest update solves some of the problems of the earlier versions. afte you update, if you still have problems, I suggest you start a new question that gives a good title to a specific problem. Then in the body of the thread describe the problem in detail, tell us what steps you have tried so far to correct the problem, what happened, and what error messages you received.

  • What does the Ipad do when loading IOS 6?

    I am trying to download IOS6. My I pad is showing the apple logo then it goes away and then comes back. Is this normal. I know it takes awhile to download IOS6. I just want to make sure my Ipad is actually downloading and not stuck. Thanks!

    If you keep having problems downloading from your device, try upgrading through iTunes.
    I usually prefer that way, especially if the Wifi signal isn't so good.
