When will an update later than iOS 5.1.1 be available for iPad

Since most of the new apps or updates require iOS 6 or better why isn't there a more recent software update for the older iPad

This is ridiculous. They are capable of creating an OS that is capable with the new apps. The apps Im trying to download shouldnt require any of the features on the newer iPads. There is nothing wrong with the iPad I have, just a lack of support cause its a few years old. When I do upgrade my hardware, I definitely will not be giving any more money to Apple.
Also, It took me weeks to figure out why exactly i couldnt update iOS. I have emailed Apple support several times and have been instructed to update iTunes and directed to these forums. Thanks for the support....

  • I have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it

    i have an app update on my phone through the app store, but i dont have that app and when i hit update it says the item is no longer available for sale,, but i cannot get rid of the little 1 at the corner of the app store app,, how can i get rid of it,, i have iphone 5

    You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
    Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store notice. For example, if the App Store says you need to update "Twitter," the hacked app may be "Angry Birds" or something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you have to carry out a systematic search.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
    In the Finder, press the key combination command-F to open a search window, or select
    File ▹ Find
    from the menu bar. In the search window, select
    Search: This Mac
    from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu initially showing Kind. From that menu, select  Other...
    A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select Raw Query and click OK or press return.
    Now there will be a text box to the right of popup menu. Click in that box and paste (command-V).
    The search window will show all the App Store products you've installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
    At least one of the items listed in the search window is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
    Log out and log back in. Test.

  • When will AR Andriod APP have the 2-sided print option available for a local network duplex enabled printing?

    When will AR Andriod APP have the 2-sided print option available for a local network duplex enabled printing?

    I solved my problem!
    Since I suspected routing or firewall problems inside the LAN, I went in to the router setup and did some in depth snooping. On an advanced menu of the wireless section was a one-line setting and check-box that said "Block Wireless Bridging". According to the manual, this setting "blocks wireless clients from communicating with other wireless clients on the LAN side of the Gateway."
    I unchecked it and restarted the router and now all macs are screen and file sharing.

  • All the apps I want to download say I need to update my iPad 1, but there is no update later than iOS 5.1.1. what can I do?

    when I try to update some of my apps on my iPad it says i need to update to iOS 6.0 or higher but I can't. my device keeps saying its up to date. I have iOS 5.1.1 my device is the iPad 1 1st generation. anyone know what I can do?

    Unfortunately, there's not much you can do beyond either giving up on those apps or upgrading your device to a new one.

  • When will they update iMovie to allow it to upload videos longer than 15 minutes?

    When will they update iMovie to allow video uploads longer than 15 minutes to youtube or is there a setting that can be changed that I am not aware of?

    indeed, although you're entitled for uploads beyond 15min (as I do   ), iM sets some unwanted benchmark. me no programmer, unfortunately diggin' thru various -plists of the app didn't show me any 'hidden flag' we can set to change that.
    don't complain, make Apple directly an Enhancement request:

  • When will WebGL be supported on iOS Mobile Safari?

    In our enterpirse we have developed a WebGL application using Three.js framework. Now, our customer wants it to run on Apple iPad. The problem is that we have found out that WebGL is only supported on iOS by using iAd. So we are wondering when will WebGL be supported on iOS mobile Safari to decide what to do.
    Thanks!

    Dunno, it's a bit off topic, but there's no way that an emulated ARM build of flash would even run at all on iOS at the current point, let alone 7 years ago.
    It's not that you can't build good flash, it's just that people don't. As you've said, you can use a dumbed down, non-extensible Adobe GUI to spit out javascript, and it'll tank just the same. Adobe Photoshop used to be the most blazingly fast application on the Mac. Adobe are a different story these days. Flash is a resource hog, whereas javascript is outright inefficient at moving graphics around, although it is improving substantially.
    Flex, on the other hand, is open source.
    Flash was actually created by Adobe. Adobe owned the vector graphics bezier patents, so Macromedia couldn't build a GUI editor for their Shockwave platform, which was sort of C++ territory, for making CD ROMS. Not used a lot because of the manual type of input required.
    Macromedia bought flash as a cheapo animation program with some strange usability ideas (such as applying boolean intersects to overlapping objects without asking you), but combining this legally-released and patent-free GUI editor with shockwave export capabilities made shockwave accessible to non-technical users. Who would pile on loads of effects, run it natively as an app to test, and then deploy it in a web plugin which runs far less efficiently. That's not exactly Flash's fault, but the fact that they've just ported it wholesale a whole bunch of times without a proper human rewrite makes for evil performance, a problem you don't have with javascript. You don't have to get what Adobe want to give you as a binary, like it or lump it.
    iOS ***** in many ways, the fact that you have to reverse engineer everything and crack if you want to get even the most basic level of customisability and extensibility that you would expect on any decent computer is genuinely frightening. That device could also be up to absolutely anything behind your back, and you'd be none the wiser staring at the GUI. Just trust apple. Or ask somebody who has been prodding around in there with a sharp screwdriver.
    Neither Adobe nor Apple have an entirely ideal character for the relationship to have worked. Adobe own a shedload of patents when it comes to the maths behind image processing technology. Adobe Postscript is built into OSX, comes from NeXT. Mr Jobs lost his rag with Adobe when Adobe forced Apple programmers to work on the code related to PostScript in some sort of high security bunker, and wouldn't let them take away anything but binaries. This made the development work a massive hassle. The Apple programmers also suggested that a lot of the code was hidden out of shame rather than out of protectionism. Adobe's real strength is legalised monopolies on basic image processing technology, they've owned it since they turned over Paintbox's patents on alpha blending of pixels.
    Been using Apple & Adobe products as my day to day workhorse stuff for over 20 years. Adobe used to be just as bad as the other software firms for generally mean behaviour, but they did write hand-optimised C++, and every year they'd raise the bar with features that you actually need. Each new version would save you weeks in a month.
    Post-internet, whole different ballgame. Different setup, $bns at stake now. Land grab for the new ultra-consumerised computer technology. The good thing about consumers is that you can subject them to abuse, they get a yea or nay decision. Do you want what we're giving you?
    These sorts of computer industry companies used to be toolmakers for the graphics industry.
    Now they're supplying the communications technology for everything. Consumables plugged into every industry in the world. That sort of power is a corrupting influence.

  • When will Apple update for Olympus E-5 RAW?

    When will Apple update Aperture for Olympus E-5 RAW?

    This is starting to annoy me at a level where I'm considering switching to Lightroom when they release a new major version number.
    The D7000 hit the shelves about the same time as the E-5 and it's included in the latest update. I realize that Olympus is not exactly mainstream but neither is Aperture. If Apple wants to keep us happy then they must act within this year to supply that update. I doubt that will happen though.

    Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base before you post a question.

  • So when will Apple release their own iOS file browser built into the OS? No third parties apps....

    iOS devices should have a native file brower app built into the OS... (It's hard to believe that Apple iOS devices can't read files from a Apple Time Capsule, right out of the box.) A iOS Finder should be preinstalled on all iOS devices. This is one feature that all other OS such as Android, BlackBerry, and Windows Mobile have preinstalled on their own devices. So when will Apple release their own iOS file browser built into the OS? Please do not over look this request...

    "This is one feature that all other OS such as Android, BlackBerry and Windows Mobile have pre-installed. . ."
    Which is why those devices don't outsell; not as popular; or as desirable as Apple's iDevices.
