Our son suggested that we were not running an up to date operating system on our Ipad 1.
I updated to iOS5 and now the Ipad seems slower.
Worse yet, when going to a shopping Web site, after a purchase we cannot checkout.
The connecting icon just spins and spins.
If I have to revert to an earlier operating system, please advise how to do it.
Thank you for your question. I'll do my best to assist you.
It's not only you who are experiencing that issue. A lot of people who updated their Apple devices (mostly iPad 1, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch) to iOS 5 made the performance of their device to slow down specially when it comes to data connection. I think it is because the iOS 5 is mainly configured to run on A5 processor that is available on iPhone 4S and iPad 2.
Unfortunately, Apple does not support down grading to previous version. But what I can probably suggest for now is to wait for another update that will fix this problem which Apple normally do. I'm not just sure when will it be but I'm pretty sure that Apple will or maybe working on that already.

Glenn,
I cannot believe that Apple has turned off the shopping capability of all of the original Ipads.
As far a my wife is concerned, without this feature the Ipad is worthless.
My apologies to you if Apple was this stupid.
I believe that there must be a fix for this.
Peter
I understand how it feels.
However, Apple did not turned the shopping capability off. It's just probably a minor glitch in the new software which happens to other devices with a newly installed software. I just hope that Apple will see your question here and consider this to fix on their next update.
Regards,
Glenn
