How do you update 1st generation ipad from iOS 4 to iOS 5
How do you update 1st generation ipad from iOS 4 to iOS 5
If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

The whole world is always in such a big hurry to buy the next generation of anything - seems this has caused Apple to just not bother with their early customers. So many updates to so many apps to work with all the new stuff - not much works at all for me anymore. Lots of freeze ups and lots of crashes - even ITunes and the App Store constantly crashes. If there's any real help or support out there I sure haven't seen it. First generation IPads aren't really all that old - very disappointed - won't ever buy another one - far too expensive to be forgotten so quickly. If anyone has any HELPFUL information, please reply. If there are fixes available from Apple that I just don't know about, I'll be very glad to eat my words here.
Nah.... if application updates over the last couple of years weren't going to be compatible with my IPad and IOS 5.1, then the update notices should have never been sent. Keep in mind that as updates became available, the "reminder" never went away until you installed it. All of these "updates" were designed for the newer operating software but also supposed to be compatible with what I have. To my knowledge, ITunes and the App Store were both pre-installed on the IPads and have never been something you could download yourself (only upgrades as they came down the pike).

How do you update 1st generation ipad
i have the first ipad that came out, and its never been updated.So now i cant purchace any new games cause it says i have to have ios 4 or later. if looked in apple support but it says i can update by going to settings and go to general and it should have a button saying check for updates. but mine dont have that. CAN ANYBODY HELP ME UNDERSTAND HOW TO UPDATE IT THROUGH ITUNES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLEASE!!!!
You can go to File > About iTunes (assuming you have iTunes for Windows) to see what version you have. You need iTunes 10.5 or later. If you have that, then you should be able to follow the link in my earlier post with no problem. If you have an earlier version, the latest can be downloaded at http://apple.com/itunes/download/

I live in the US, and I will be traveling to The Netherlands, Germany and Luxembourg in May. I will be taking my MacBook Pro, 1st generation iPad and iPhone 4G. Is there a universal charger that I can use with all three devices, as opposed to taking three seperate chargers?
I obviously have three different chargers, I guess my question is, can I use just one of those chargers for all three devices, and if so, which one of the three, or does it matter? And if I can in fact use just one of the three, then why would I need all three in the US? Also, if one of the three will work on all devices, would the automotive charger work the same, one for all? Thank you for your reply.

I have a 1st generation IPAD and it is currently running IOS 4.3. I would like to update it to IOS 5.1 but am having difficulty doing it. I have followed the update software instructions in ITUNES but my IPAD will not display the update software feature under General in Setttings. What do I need to do?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
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).

My photos will not sync to my Apple TV (1st generation), ipad, iphone, or itouch. They used to be there but upon recent syncs with all devices they have all gone. I am totally baffled as I have not changed settings?
I had the same thing happen to me. It's a bug in iPhoto 9.4.2.
The first time you run iPhoto after upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2, it "updates the iPhoto library". This sometimes tickles a bug where iTunes can see all your iPhoto albums, but iTunes thinks they are empty. Since iTunes thinks all your albums are empty, it dutifully deletes any photos from your synced iOS devices.
It's easy to tell if this is the problem you are seeing. Open iTunes and go to the photos sync panel for one of your iOS devices. If you have multiple albums checked, but iTunes shows a total of 0 photos, then you have the problem.
I spent an hour with an Apple Genius. he couldn't find any mention of this problem in their internal support system. His recomendation was to reinstall the operating the system. I suspect that this won't solve it.
The only solution I have found is to restore iPhoto 9.4.1 and the corresponding iPhoto library from your backups.
I would refrain from upgrading to iPhoto 9.4.2 until Apple has a fix for this issue. -
Trying to update system on 1st generation IPAD to give to my 5 year old to use. It is saying that i have purchases on this ipad that are not in my library which is odd because everything on the ipad was purchased current ID. It is not telling me how to transfer them to library? Does anyone know?

I have the 1st generation iPad. All of a sudden it will not connect to my wi-fi. It finds my wi-fi, but will not totally connect. I have done everything...reset network, rebooted router etc and it still will not connect. My other divices are connected....iPhone and 3 Macs. Any suggestions?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

hello, i do not have the option "update software" in my i phone, help ! i can not download new whatsapp version due to my old software !! pleaseeee
The option your looking for is available with iOS 5 or later. You need to update using iTunes on a Mac or PC.

Now that iOS is consistently being updated. Will the 1st Generation IPad be stuck with IOS 5? Eventually my IPad will be good for nothing as Apps start requiring the updated software.
The iPad 1 can only be updated to iOS 5.1.1. This is unlikely to change.
The apps you have will continue to work and there are still many apps which run on iOS 5 (or even earlier iOS levels). -
HT4623 Why can't my 1st generation iPad update to iOS 6? Memory is not an issue.
Why can't my 1st generation iPad update to iOS 6 when memory is not an issue?
The first gen iPad has a slower processor (A4) than the iPad 2 (dual-core A5) and iPad 3 (dual-core A5X) and 4 (A6X), and it also has less memory - 256 meg, compared to the iPad 2's 512 meg and the iPad 3 and 4's 1024 meg. My first gen iPad got noticeably slower with iOS 5 than it was with iOS 4, so I doubt that it could cope with iOS 6.

I have an 1st generation ipad. I am unable to update the software beyond 5.1.1. Why? It tells me my software is up to date.
Very possible.
You can often get the older version if you buy directly on the iPad
Go through the iTunes Store on your old iPad and purchase netflix, if you can get an older version of the app, iTunes will ask and prompt the download of older version.
Not all apps will be available.
I was able to put iBooks on my older iPod this way.
