Why can't I use iMessage and Facetime on my iPhone4(iso5.1.1)?

Why can I not use multi-touch gestures on my original iPad with iOS 5?

Why can I not use multi-touch gestures on my original iPad with iOS 5?

It would appear that apple has managed to p1ss off alot of ipad one users in one fowl swoop, what makes it worse is that fact we were the early adoptors who got asked, why do you want a big iphone for? and then spent time showing people how good it was! actually promoting it for apple! and then to get this kick in the teeth is frustrating! i wish i had known about xcode before!
however!
keep sending feedback, i must have sent twenty yesterday and will keep sending them untill i get a reply from these idiots! and wont stop untill i do, the more feedback sheets we fill in the more they will have to listen, it takes less than a min, i just asking the same question! moaning on here wont do anything, feedback might
also note they have changed the website now, but they have not changed the iOS5 spash screen :
(•          AirPlay Mirroring for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S
          •          Multitasking Gestures for iPad
          ◦          Use four or five fingers to pinch to the Home Screen
          ◦          Swipe up to reveal the multitasking bar
          ◦          Swipe left or right to switch between apps)
clearly they were planning on releasing this update to us, otherwise on the spalsh screen it would have stated ipad 2 only, note in the sentence above it states it CLEARLY makes a reference to ipad 2 for airplay, so, whatever the problem, they can fix it and they know it works!

Why can't I use firefox as my browser on my iPad

Why can't I use firefox as my browser on my iPad also why can't I access adobe flash

Flash is not supported on any iOS device (iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch) : http://www.apple.com/hotnews/thoughts-on-flash/ . Apps such as Skyfire claim to support flash, but their reviews are mixed.
In terms of Firefox, you can only install apps (i.e. programs) that are available in the iTunes App Store, not normal PC or Mac software - the iPad runs iOS, not OS or Windows. If the makers of Firefox havn't created an iOS version of it then you cannot run it.
Edit : some websites (especially news sites) have their own apps in the App Store

Why can't I use iMessage after upgrading to iOS6?

I recently "upgraded" to iOS6 and can no longer use iMessage. Since I am unable to go back to iOS5 any suggestions would be appreciated.

"can no longer use iMessage"
What do you mean?

Why can't i use imessage to my friend in australia

I used to have an android phone and had viber on it to be able to text my friend in Australia. Since switching to the iphone and downloading the viber app...it refuses to do anything. We also tried iMessage since the friend also has iphone and it won't work. Any help in this area would be awesome!!

If your using imessage you must set it up correctly. As for the app you will have to get a hold of the App devloper.
For imessage you just have to know your fiiends number or apple id.

Why can't I use backspace button or go back and edit typed text?

I recently upgraded my OS to 10.6.8 on my mac mini, allowing me to update my Firefox. Ever since then, when typing any text, such as this one, or in an email, or a comment post on a blog, I am unable to use the backspace button, go back and edit any text, and at times no key on my keyboard works at all. Intensely frustrating and I have no idea what is going on. Please let me know what settings to change so that I can go back correct spelling, make edits, backspace, all the normal usual things that a person does when typing text. Thank you.

As a temporary band-aide, can you mark the part you want to edit and type
over it? Try doing these things;
 Clear the Cache '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Cached Web Content: "Clear Now"''''' 
and 
Remove Cookies '''''Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"''''' 
'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
Hold down the '''''Shift''''' key (On '''Mac''' the '''''Options''''' key) while starting Firefox to start in Safe Mode

Why can't i use the older googlemail address on my ipad 2

Using an Ipad 2, I can't seem to get access to my googlemail address? All I get is a page asking me to upgrade to Gmail and change all my settings. Is this a technical problem or is it just because Google and Apple don't get along with each other?

You need to use the iTunes backup you made on your old computer and restore it to the new one.

Why can't I use services like Instant messanging with my IPAD and I can on my MAC?

With my IPAD I cannot use IM or view certain videos , but with my MAC desk top I can, what software can I add to my IPAD to allow the same functionality as my mac

You can IM on the iPad, if you look in the AppStore Yahoo has an app and so does AIM.
What kind of videos are you wanting to watch? Are they divx/Xvid, .h264 etc? The iPad reads MP4 video format so searching Google for Convert X(X being the video type) to MP4

Why can't I use the stable release of firefox and the aurora version at the same time?

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/811821''
I have downloaded aurora, but when I click on the Firefox 4 icon it takes me to aurora. Is it not possible for me to use both versions. One for testing and the other for everyday use.

1. Do a '''custom''' installation to a uniquely named folder.
2. Create a new profile exclusively for Aurora and create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch that profile.

I have an old iPod Touch with old software that can no longer be updated:
iOS version 6.1.6
I've been searching for a solution to my iMessage login problem for months and tried everything from those frustrating links and all the tips from other users.
Here is what finally worked:
1) Settings > Privacy > Location Services > On
2) Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > On
3) Reboot device until Apple logo appears
4) Settings > Messages > Sign In
