Why can I not update my iPad first generation to the latest software?

Which version of iOS is supported is a decision made by each
individual software developer. If there is an app that is not available
in iOS 5, contact the developer to see if they can provide a version
compatible with your iOS.
Perhaps one of these links may help:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Vintapps 3.1.3 - paid app.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.

Why can I not make calls on my iphone with the new software update (sprint)

I'm not able to make calls for hours at a time or recieve text messages on my iPhone 4S. This has all started happening after I updated to the new software. HELP?!

Hello Ciddy14,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
First, if you have not already, I would restart the iPhone then try again.
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.
After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

If the issue persists, I would next try the troubleshooting in this article:

And if the issue still persists, I would then backup and restore your phone to iTunes.

Why can I not update my Ipad to ios 7.1.1?

I get an error every time I try to download updates. Is anyone else having this problem and what is the fix?

If you were using WiFi, try using iTunes, and if you were using iTunes, try using WiFi. If you are using iTunes, try disabling your firewall and antivirus software. If you are getting a specific error message, post it. The more information you provide, the easier it might be to help.
Provide some context, explain what happens when you try to update.

If you have an original iPad 1, the latest version of iOS it can run is iOS 5. So you should be able to update no problem.
Update iTunes to the latest version (11.0.2). Then simply plug your iPad into the computer and open iTunes. Click the iPad either in the sidebar or the top navigation bar. Then attempt to update the software. If it doesn't work, please post the exact error message.
Note that it would be wise to first ensure you back up the iPad.

Can I update my iPad first generation to ios 6?

iOS 6-- can I update my iPad (first generation) with it? It appears I cannot, but I want to make sure.

No, unfortunately not the 1st gen iPads... The new iOS 6 will run on the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, and iPhone 5; the iPad 2 and third-generation iPad; and the fourth- and fifth-generation iPod touch.
Hope this answers your question.

Why can't I update my iPad 1 beyond 5.1.1

Why can't I update my iPad 3G to IOS 5? It is stuck at IOS 4.2.

Why can't I update my iPad 3G from IOS 4.2 to IOS 5? iTunes says that no upgrades are available for the iPad but it updated my iPhone 4 and iPod Touch to IOS 5.

No idea. What exactly is it that you see when you connect to iTunes (provide complete text, please).
But, before doing that, bring both your iPad and your computer/iTunes combination back to a 'clean' configuration; on the iPad do a Reset, on the computer at a minimum log out and in of your user account (in OS X, or whatever the Windoze equivalent would be) or if you prefer just do a Restart. If any flags are incorrectly set anywhere that should set them back to their proper states and, if that happens, you'll be in business when you connect and will see the update available.

Why can I not hear my iPad 2 "click"off when I close cover

Hi you are not going to believe this but under "ringer and alerts" I decided to increase the level of sound (was set half way) once I did that it was like it "released" it!! The cover now clicks off even when I returned setting back to original place.
Thanks so much for your hep.

You have an iPad 1. 5.1.1 is the last iOS version for that model.

If you are searching within iTunes, all the Apps are for iDevices. To find Apps for the MacBook, you will need to search using the Mac App Store.

HT4972 why can't i update my ipad 1 to ios 5

Why can't I update my ipad to ios 5?

Why can't you?
If you are running an iOS version lower than 5, you'll need to connect your iPad to a computer running iTunes and update through there.

Why can I not update my CS 6 programs to Mac OS X

I am having problems with updating the latest Updates for my CS 6 programs *here PS and Ill. fx. And the notice says to contact costumer support, but only get a few Q's and A's.
HOW do I get in direct contact (or chat/mail) with costumer service of ADOBE_

Hej again Steve
Ok sorry again
But you seem to be quite into this field. (and I've unfortunately been
'out' for a while). I used to be up to date, but now, it's all moving so
fast, and if you're away for a few years then you're (screwed)
I've been trying to get in touch with Adobe mostly for 1. update of my
programs because I seem to have a lot of 'faults' in each (crashing, screen
moving and such)
BUT 2. also because I want to join CC and with the 40% off (as I have an
original CS) but when I enter info, it will not accept my serial nr. NOW
after your guidance I came across this site which shows that I am granted a
''free'' CC. Am I reading this right. _ ? I am no idiot, but yes, in the
computer field _ I am a designer and a damn good one, but all the techichal
(that is another language _ and heck, we all have our fields_ I go to a
mechanic to get my car fixed, you?
Just smiling
Look forward to hear from you

2014-05-25 22:33 GMT+02:00 Athena Windelev <[email protected]>:
Thank you Steve / at least it seems that I can get a ''chat'' going.
A few years ago I could mail them but now not that and no phone (or rather
when I call long distance I never get thru) what I most want is personal
contact. Because even if they list 20 or something common Q and A's mine do
not follow in on any of the categories. BUT thanks again for the link.
Maybe you can help me with others ... Just a thought
I\m trying to upgrade my PS, ID and Illustrator CS6 / and I know from
previous Adobe guidance, one should not just take the latest. I seem to be
successful with my ID (but yet to prove when I test it, which I haven't had
time to yet) BUT my PS and Ill come up with this (see attached file).
Hope you can help. Anyway, you have so far.
Because you see - I have an original CS6 and want to upgrade to CC soon.
AND they offer a 40% discount if you already have the original. BUT when I
type in my serial nr. it won't register this. I've been trying (no kidding)
for a year now, if not longer. AND this is not in one of their Q and A's
Best

HT1338 why can i not update my software from 10.6.8

why can i not update my software from 10.6.8?

Because there are no updates beyond OS X 10.6.8.
If you want to upgrade to a later version, you have to buy it. Mountain Lion is $19.99 US.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
Try This - Renew IP Address:
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
