Why can't I download certain apps from the app store with ipad1

I keep trying to download certain apps and a message pops up saying I need ios6 or higher for that app, I have a iPad 1 is that going to happen to all apps soon.

Yes. But you may still be able to download compatible versions.  You will have to download the App to iTunes on a computer or another device that does support the App using the same Apple Id you have on your iPad.  With that done you can follow these instructions from your iPad to get a compatible version:
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app

    For some reason I cannot download the free apps from the app store. It asks me for payment details
    Do you have an Apple ID Account set up through the iTune Store? You need to have an account before you can download anything from the App store.
    Good Luck

  • Why can I not download Playstation games from the market

    This is what the PLAY store says for all the games that sony of america has published for this phone.  WHY can I not download these games on Verizon.  Its not like they are competing, these games are not available in the Vcast store.  Can you please fix, along with fixing the Google sync problem in 2.3.4

    Thanks but this IS a carrier problem, hence the "not available on your carrier".  Sony directs you to verizon when you want to know why it doesn't work.... So verizon, why doesn't it work?

  • Why can't I download/buy anything in the App Store?

    So, I was browsing apps in the app store when I found an app I wanted to get. The button to install said "Get" then "Install".
    But instead of asking me for my Apple ID Password, the button went back to saying "get". This is happening to ALL apps/items I try to purchase/get.
    How can I fix this?

    As per the Apple iCloud status page, they are having issues. Do not make changes at your end.

  • Can I download a movie from the US store with a German account (in Germany)

    Hello everybody.
    I was looking for "The curious case of Benjamin button" in the German store, but I only find it in the us store. My question now is: how can I download a film from the us iTunes Store to my German iTunes account? I currently life in Germany and I use itunes very often.
    Can I change my German iTunes Store to the us version? Or do I need to open an account set in English (US)?
    Any help is welcome. Thanks.

  • Why can't I download a PDF from a web site with Safari?

    I clicked on an image whcih is suppoed to open a PDF. Nothing happens.

    Hey Carolyn,
    I do have this app on my iphone and it works great. My issue in when I try to download a PDF from a page in Safari. Chrome does it without any problems. I'm just trying to use Safari more as it is apparently "faster" and "uses less power". Thisis based on the latest information I viewed from the WWDC.

  • Why Can't I Download my Podcast from the iPhone's iTunes Music Store

    Hi,
    Newbie here and was hoping if someone could help me. I recently submitted my podcast feed at the itunes music store and is now currently searchable if i use my itune client on my Mac. No problem on subscribing and everything works great. Now when I search it in the itunes music store via my iphone, I can still search it, and it has 2 reviews but it seems that all episodes are grayed out. I can't do anything with it. I can't download it whatsoever.
    Anyone out there with the same issues I'm having? Is it my feed or my phone?

    i just tried subscribing, and when i do, i am unable to download any of the podcasts, nor am i able to listen to them in iTunes.
    i was able to find your podcast in my iPhone, but i was not able to get it to download like i can with other podcasts.
    sadly, as i have no experience on the admin side of podcasts, so i can not offer any advise, but i hope my information helps you troubleshoot!

  • Why can't I Gift an iBook from the iTunes Store?

    I noticed that for some reason Books within the iTunes Store don't seem to have the Gift option.
    Apps, Music, Movies, TV Shows, even Audio Books can be gifted.
    Why is this?

    Why should the publishers even have to agree to it? It's none of their business, just like it's none of their business (nor do they have to agree) if I buy a physical book from a bookstore and give it as a gift.

  • Why can't I update/ download apps from the app store after upgrading to iOS 7.0.3?

    I have an iphone 5 and updated my phone to the lastest version (ios 7.0.3) last night. I can't download/ update any apps from the app store using my cellular network.  The only error message is that the app cant be downloaded at this time. As soon as I click the download button, the image of the icon shows up with "Waiting" underneath the icon.  I tried tapping on the app icon to pause the download but that isn't working. I have disabled Wi-Fi setting and enabled"the use cellular data" option in the itunes and app store setting page.  Memory is not an issue because I have a lot of memory available.  In the cellular setting page the App Store is enabled to use cellular data.  It seems like it is a setting issue.  What can be done to fix this problem

    Thanks for your suggestion.  Not long ago before I saw your response I tried to download the app and I seemed to have some progress (I had 5 bars and 1x). It looked it was 3/4 of the download complete only to have the same error message. 
    Since then I reset the phone and I have tried downloading the app when there 5 bars with 3g.  Every time the icon has waiting underneath it and I get the same error message. 

  • Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

    Is there a way to hide them so that my kids will never see them when looking for new apps?

    Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
    You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

    Each country's governement sets the rules for commerce in their nation - so things like copyright can limit foreign use, plus tax laws and such.  For any intellectual property (software, books, music, audio, video), it is mostly copyright restrictions that limit cross border retail sales.

    You really need to provide a little more information. Why don't you explain a little bit of what you have been experiencing, and maybe someone can offer some advice.
    Are you signed into the correct Apple ID? Do the apps start downloading at all? Do you get the "waiting" or "Loading" icons at all?
    What are you doing that isn't working?
