Por personas como tu, aun no perdemos la fe de que el internet algún día deje de ser tan sólo un alojamiento de libertinaje sino un sitio útil a la humanidad. Mil Gracias!!!! Que Dios te bendiga!!!!

[@vietnamveteran131092]

Hi! i have watched ur video about iPad 1 and want to say thank you! it works so fine) but i want u to ask... maybe u know repo or something, how to instal old version of iBooks (today it Apple Books)? I have tried apparchive, but their version doesn't work properly

[@Zestrod]

Hi, I'm glad you found the video useful. iBooks is a built-in app that comes pre-installed with iOS 5.1.1 as far as I know, however I don't know if you can still downgrade it to an older version with a certain tweak (with something like AppStore++ for example), best regards!

[@ZoranAUS]

Good day, this guide is very helpful. But I am encountering some problem, when I try to download chrome. "It say I am unable to purchase, chrome could not be purchased at this time.

The ipad home page will show the chrome start downloading, just to show the same unable to purchase

The App Store is down on iOS 5 and below, you would need to sync your apps with an old version of iTunes or “crack” your apps on another device.

If I may ask did your ipad factory restart when you following the video, and if yes at which part. Or you factory restart before you follow this video tutorial. And why can't you login your apple id anymore?
