What is the oldest generation of iPad that will still allow me to run IOS8 and allow for future IOS updates?
Buying a used iPad... what is the oldest generation of iPad that will still allow me to run IOS8 and allow for future IOS updates?
Thanks
An iPad 2 will do it...for awhile. Realize that it's seemingly on it's last legs as far as iOS updates go and performance will not be great enough for today's demanding games. Also realize that a big part of running apps smoothly is how much system RAM (the memory area that the apps actually run in) the device has. The iPad 2 has 512 MB which is adequate for most apps but not for some. The iPads above the iPad 2 all have 1 GB of system RAM and the iPad Air 2 has 2 GB.
The time will come when the iPad 2 can no longer be updated past a certain iOS version (as the iPad 1 is) so it will be more difficult to keep up with apps that you want to be using. This will eventually happen to ALL devices so you'll have to judge if you want to be at the tail-end of iOS updates or at least have a bigger buffer with a newer iPad.

What is the oldest version of iTunes that will accept gift card redeem ? ems
Please help ! My daughter has gift cards she would like to Redeem. She is using my old G-4 laptop. Can iTunes be upgraded to accept gift cards on 10.3.7 ?
To use the iTunes Store, you need at least iTunes 9.2.1 which requires Mac OS X 10.4.11 or later. You'll need to upgrade her computer to 10.4 or 10.5 before she'll be able to redeem her card and make purchases.
Apple no longer offers Mac OS X 10.4, though they may still have copies of 10.5 if you call the Apple Store (and assuming that your G4 will support 10.5; it requires at minimum an 867MHz G4 processor). Otherwise you'll have to look to independent resellers or places such as eBay for a copy of 10.4 or 10.5; make sure you get a retail (black label) copy, not the system disk from another Mac (grey label).

What is the oldest Premiere Elements version that will run on Windows 7 64 bit?
I am a teacher who recently upgraded to Win 7 much to my irritation.
I have taught a junior high class teaching Premiere Elements 3 until this year. It crashes with the Windows 7 64 bit system. I am heart sick. We cannot afford a lot of new "stuff". So, do you know which of the older Premiere Elements versions will function correctly on these machines.
Thanks,
ACPannp062647
You should be able in install and run Premiere Elements 4 on Windows 7 64 bit without issue.
The question is where to find older versions in stock somewhere. If you purchase from a private source, you
may get involved with the Adobe Licensing Transferring matter.

When you tried to use Premiere Elements 3 on Windows 7 64 bit, did you also try to install its 3.0.2 Update along with it?
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=3565
Did your Windows 7 64 bit arrive at a time when Microsoft was still supporting Windows XP Mode? If so, you could install Premiere Elements 3
in the Windows XP Mode of Windows 7 64 bit to have access to it in Windows 7 64 bit workspace. (The Windows XP Mode is a virtual Windows XP Professional
SP3 32 bit).
Please review and consider.

I recently upgrade to an iPAD Air. I gave my old iPAD (1st gen) to my wife. I restored it to original factory conditions. Now we cannot install iBook on it since it requires iOS 7. What can we do with older iPADS that are still 100% functional except for the fact that you cannot updrade the iOS above version 5?
Look at this similar problem in getting Netflix on an iPad 1. Same technique should work for you.

What is the latest version of Firefox that will work with Windows ME?
We were recently given an older Gateway laptop that we intend to use solely as an internet terminal. Alas, it is running Windows ME and I don't even know if it has all the specs to upgrade (and certainly not to Vista, which is the only thing we have an install disk for). It currently has Firefox 2.0.0.20, which of course contains numerous security vulnerabilities and is incompatible with most newer plugins. What is the best version of Firefox that will work with Windows ME, and is it still available for download? Thanks!
Hmm... guess this will be just an e-mail terminal, hardly anything else works cuz I can't update Flash! Thanks for your help.

What is the most recent Apple OS that will work with Adobe CS4?
I need to update my Apple OS but would like to continue using CS4. What is the most recent Apple OS that will allow me to do this, please?
OSX 10.9.4 should be able to handle this just fine, but you will require manual intervention.

What is the earliest version of FCPS that will be compatible with the i-3 processor
What is the earliest version of FCPS that will be compatible with the i-3 processor? I am looking for a used version and doesn't matter which one.
FCP 5.1 was the first version compatible with Intel processor Macs. After that came version 6 and the current version is 7.

What is the most recent APPLE system that will run Tiger server?
What is the most recent APPLE system that will run Tiger server?
Hi Steven,
I highly suspect by deduction that since the latest 10.4 Server was 10.4.7, that these would be the latest since they came with 10.4.7 client at least...
Mac Pro - MA356LL/A - MacPro1,1 - A1186 - 2113
Mac Pro - BTO/CTO - MacPro1,1 - A1186 - 2113
But if you have 10.4.0 or 10.4.3 Server then likely A Late 2005 G5 would be the latest. -
Will Safari 5.1.10 work with all versions 10.6 or does it require 10.6.8? If it does require 10.6.8 then what is the latest version of Safari that will work with 10.6.6?
Thanks
EricThis Mac currently has Safari 5.0.4. Software Update shows a newer version of iTunes and of course the combo updater to 10.6.8 but nothing else. I imagine the 10.6.8 updater contains a later version of Safari but I don't now which version it is and whether it is backward compatible with older versions of 10.6. There are a number of newer versions of Safari: 5.0.5. 5.0.6, 5.1.1, 5.1.2, . . . 5.1.10 to name a few but would any of them work with 10.6.6? In a similar thread a guy asked a similar question to mine: he had 10.6.6 and wanted to upgrade to a newer version of Safari. He tried installing various versions but was rejected each time. He finally asked if there was any newer version of Safari that would install on 101.6.6 - but he never got an answer.
Software Update displayed a newer iTunes but no mention of Safari. I wonder if this indicates that the 5.0.4 Safari that I have is the latest version there is for 10.6.6. Anybodyknow for sure?
TIA

My second generation touch runs IOS 4.2.1 and will no longer update. What is the earliest generation that will run the necessary software to stream radio programmes wirelessly via the BBC iPlayer "listen again" facility?
According to this wikipedia article, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS_version_history, you need an iPod Touch 3rd generation or iPad 1st generation as minimum to run iOS 5.1. However, if you are going to get a new (or newish) device, I would recommend getting a more recent model for a bit of future proofing - the next time the BBC updates the app it will probably raise the minimum version of iOS too.

What's the oldest version of Tomcat that supports JSTL?
I'm stuck with Tomcat 3.3 for this project I'm working on. Is there any version of JSTL that can be made to work with this dinosaur?
Did you try what is suggested in the readme file?
COMPATIBILITY
The 1.0 version of the Standard Taglib has been tested under Tomcat 4.0.4
and should work in any compliant JSP 1.2 container. To use this
distribution on earlier versions of Tomcat (such as 4.0.3), however, you
may need to work around a container bug that prevents JAXP 1.2 classes
from loading successfully.
To do this, you should to replace the JAXP 1.2 JAR files included with
this distribution (in the 'lib' directory) with older XML-related JAR
files. To obtain these older, unsupported libraries, you can download the
file named
jakarta-taglibs-standard-oldxml-compat.tar.gz
or
jakarta-taglibs-standard-oldxml-compat.zip
from the same directory from which you downloaded this distribution
(http://jakarta.apache.org/builds/jakarta-taglibs/releases/standard/).
Once you have obtained these files, install them (crimson.jar and
xalan.jar) into your WEB-INF/lib directory in place of the following files
from this distribution: jaxp-api.jar, dom.jar, sax.jar, xercesImpl.jar,
and the newer xalan.jar.
Note that upgrading to Tomcat 4.0.4 is recommended and that we provide
these older libraries as a temporary convenience for those who have not
yet upgraded.Good luck,
evnafets
