  • Will iOS 5 bog down my first generation iPad?

    Will iOS 5 bog down my first generation iPad?

    Since iOS5 has not been release, we don't know. Anyone who does know, is likely under NDA to not discuss it on these public forums.  (We don't even know if iOS5 "will bog down" and iPad2 either. )
    Best to wait until iOS5 is released, but don't install it immediately, and wait for what everyone else says.

  • HT5527 Why is it that when I bought my first generation iPad in October of 2010 the Apple sales rep at the Orange County California store suggested that I pay $99 for Mobile Me "coverage" and told me it was a "one time charge".

    Why is it when I bought my first generation iPad in October 2010 the sales rep at the Orange County California South Coast Plaza store suggested that I buy Mobile Me service for $99 which he assured me was a one time charge and now, of course, Mobile Me has been discontinued and I've been "forced" to move to the Cloud and I'm being provided with another year of what Apple calls complimentary service with the clear indication that in a year I'm going to be asked to pay again for something I paid a one time charge for two years ago?

    Mobile Me was the successor to .Mac (dot mac) which was "free" to all users but for a limited time. It included a free email address @mac.com and an amount of what we would now call "cloud" storage that went by the name of iDisk. iDisk worked great but with only dialup service for me it was barely useful.
    So I didn't think much of dot-mac but lots of people thought it was worth paying for, so they did. Apple wanted to make it even more useful and integrate it with their portable devices which we all know as iPads and iPhones, and assembled a team to make it all work. This was to be called Mobile Me.
    They failed miserably. Lots of people including me looked at the final product and said "huh?" Unfortunately for the Mobile Me engineers, one of those people was Steve Jobs. He first humiliated them quite publicly, then disbanded the team, including firing at least one senior manager who shall remain nameless.
    This was the rocky beginning of what is now called iCloud, which is the "free" service I should have explained. iCloud includes an email address @me.com, and the 5 GB of "storage" which aggregates things like iWork documents, your email, calendars, Photostream, and iPhone backups.
    You can buy more storage if you need more than 5 GB, but if you have more than that it's still free through September 2013.
    What happens if you have more than 5 GB stored on iCloud and on September 2013 you don't pay? I'm not sure, but you have a year to think about it.

  • Why is the iOS 5 not available for the iPhone 3G??

    So disappointed that the iPhone 3G can't update to the new iOS 5!!!!!!!  Does anybody know why??? Is there any solution?
    Now I can't syncronize my data like I used to do it with mobile me!!!
    SO DISAPPOINTED Apple!!!
    You SHOULD make it available to all iPhone users, not just the new ones!

    Yes, Mobile me is available until january, but since I downloaded Lion I thought the best option was to switch to iCloud, so my Mobile me isn't available anymore... I can still sync my data manually!
    After that was when I tryed to update my iPhone and got the surprise that it's not compatible with the iOS5!
    I guess it's time to get a new phone... haha
    This is my first big disappointment with Apple... sad
    Thanks everbody !

  • I have the first generation iPad, how do I get the software update iOS 6?

    I have the first generation iPad and I'm trying to download apps but my device keeps telling me to download the iOS software update 6. When I go to updates in my settings it's saying my device is up to date with iOS 5.1.1, but it's saying I need the iOS 6. How do I upgrade my device if it's not showing iOS update 6?

    The first generation iPad cannot be updated past iOS 5.1.1
    You may still be able to get compatible versions fo the Apps by downloading the App to iTunes on a computer or another device that does support the current  App version 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:

    So, the upload time will vary on internet connection. If there is an issue with how fast it is uploaded you can check if prefetching is turned on, but this does not really affect uploading [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Controlling_DNS_prefetching Controlling DNS prefetching]
    If you search for solutions, you will see a bunch of tweaks as well that may be helpful to your specific computer. [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]] to make sure you are all up to date as well.

  • Why isn't iOS 7 supported on 4th generation iPod?

    Why isn't iOS 7 supported on 4th generation iPod?

    Same reason any new software cannot be run on any old hardware.
    As time goes by, new software requires more and more from the hardware.  Older hardware simply cannot keep up.
    This is not odd or unusual in any way.

  • Why ebooks on ibooks is not available yet in philippines

    why ebooks on ibooks is not available yet in philippines

    Apple can sell things where the content providers have given them licenses to sell them - so if the book publishers haven't given them licenses to sell their ibooks in the Philippines then Apple can't sell them there.
    Until if/when the book publishers grant Apple licenses, do you have access to other ebook apps/stores that you can use instead ?

  • Why Marathi handwriting keyboard is not available.

    In the iPhone 5s
    Why Marathi handwriting keyboard is not available.

    Hi,
    a type is one possible reason - but the other reason could be the internal SAP release process. PErson A writes a note - and this note referes to Note B. Note A gets release - so everybody looks for Note B - but this is not released at the moment - so it can not be found at the moment. Talk to SAP via OSS and ask them, they can help you - cause internal SAP people can always see these notes, even they are not release to external customers. Or wait a few days - usually they get available then.
    Hope that helps!
    Regards,
    Oliver
