Will ipad 2 update past ios7?

I want to upgrade to the ipad 2 from my ipad 1st generation. My question is will the ipad 2 continue to update past iOS 7 I don't want to buy it then in 2 years it won't update and be super obsolete. Thanks

There has been no announcement about any update after iOS 7 so no one will know what the compatibility will be.
The iPad 2 is the oldest compatible device with iOS 7, and usually every year one device gets dropped compatibility.

    My IPad 1 will not update past iOS 5.1.1, however many apps require iOS 6.0 or later what can I do?
    Also, since updating to 5.1.1 Safari frequently crashes.  Help!!!!!!

    5.1.1. is the end of the line for the original iPad. You can't go beyond that. As for the safari crashes, is it tied to specific websites? Have you tried clearing the cache and history?

  • Will not update past VS910ZV7

    My Revo will not update past sw version VS910ZV7.  Checking for software updates manually does nothing.  It appears the latest version out is VS910ZV9.  How can I get my phone to update??

        Magicshews,
    Jeepers! Software updates are created to make sure yoru device has the best user experience, so lets get this fixed!  I would recommend powering off the phone>removing the battery from the device for 2 min> place the battery back in the device>power on the device. The device will power back on with original software and will prompt you once again to install the system update. Hope this helps!
    Thanks,

  • HT1338 MacBook pro will not update past 10.5.8

    What can I do if my MacBook pro will not update past OS X 10.5.8
    When I check for software updates, it says there are no updates and it is up to date.

    OS X 10.5.8 is the last update for that version. If you need to go to a OS X 10.6 then you are going to have to purchased a DVD for the upgrade.

  • 1st gen iPod Touch will not update past 1.1.5

    I am sure this question has been asked before and probably answered but I have tried just about everything I can think of and I cannot get an update past 1.1.5. I have restored my unit and downloaded firmware files for 2.2 and 3.1 but both give me an error trying to update. I know I have to purchase the update but I cannot find a way to do it through iTunes. It says my device is fully updated.

    You can purchase the update here:

  • First Gen. iPad Will Not Update Past 4.2.1

    My boss has a first generation iPad (model MC349LL) and has never updated the software. We are trying, through iTunes to update the software from 4.2.1 to 5.1.1; however, we receive an error message stating "iTunes could not contact the iPad software update server because you are not connected to the Internet. Make sure your Internet connection is active and try again." Our internet connection is active on both computers and the iPad. We have tried to update on five different computers and still receive the same message. Each computer is equipped with iTunes version 11.3.0.54. We have gone through the iPad and reset all settings, network settings, and erased all content and settings. Obviously, he is out of the complimentary "Apple Support" period, we are quite far from the closest Apple store, and upgrading to a more recent model is not an option for him. Any ideas on how to update would be appreciated.

    You should erase the iPod (settings>GeneralReset>Erasase all Content and Settings) or connect to iTunes and restore to factory settings/new iPod.

    I have updated my iTunes to current version.  When I try to update my ipad is says that my iOS 5.1 is current and no new updates are needed.  My phone updated without any problem to ios 7.  Any suggestions?

    Is your iPad a generation one ipad? if so, then 5.1.1 is the max operating system for that device.

  • Will not update to ios7

    I want to download Amazon Kindle app to my ipod touch running ios 6.1.6. Says I need ios7. My settings/general/updates will not allow update, says I AM up to date???

    iOS 6.1.6 was released for those iPhones and iPod Touches that could not upgrade to iOS 7 so they had the correct security patches.  If your iPod Touch has iOS 6.1.6 then it cannot be upgraded further.

  • Why won't my original iPad update past IOS 5.1.1

    I purchased an iPad when they first came out and my IOS has always updated when a new version came out however right now its version 5.1.1 and it says my IOS is up to date but I now have APPS that say I need an updated IOS.  I tried connecting wired to my PC and iTunes but no difference in results

    The iPad 1 will not go further than 5.1.1 because the hardware can not accommodate the newer software.

  • I have a second generation ipod touch that will not update past version 3.1.3, when i check updates it says it is up to date but im quite sure i should be able to get at least a 4.2 ios update. If someone could please help id really appreciate it!!

    I have made sure that my ipod is second generation, and i have tried to resotr it twice to fix the problem. I'm getting a little bit frustrated with it. I went to the apple store in metrotwn and the gentlemen didnt even look at the ipod, just told me that it was maybe to old of a generation to support updates. Funny thing is my boyfriend had it before me and he updated it past 3.1.3 no problem.

    - Are you sure you have a 2G iPod and not a 1G? Yucan can itell the difference here by the shape of the black antenna cover on the back of the iPOd.

  • Why wont my iPad update past iOS 5.1.1??

    I have an iPad original that is currently running iOS 5.1.1 that says it is currently up to date, however apps that need to be updated say they can't without iOS 6 or higher.  I have even restored it back to its factory settings and still nothing.  Has my apple product become obsolete??

    It's incapable of running iOS 6 or newer, or application versions which require iOS 6.

  • My Mac OS X will not update past 10.5.8!

    I am on a Mac OS X and it is currently updated to a 10.5.8 and won't update when I click on system update. I can't buy Snow Leopard from Apple and I want Mountain Lion so I can buy iMovie '11. But you have to have at least 10.6.8 to get Mountain Lion! Help!

    To upgrade from OS X 10.5.8, you must buy Snow Leopard on disc. It is not available to download from any legitimate source.
    Online (US): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    Apple's price is $19.99.
    Once installed, upgrade Snow Leopard to the latest version using Software Update. You will then have OS X 10.6.8 installed.
