Older IPad Updates

[alansiporin]

I have an old IPad, perhaps the first version. A gift from daughter when she got a new one.

I have two questions that may be related.

1. I am unable to make list of contacts when I use g-mail on the Ipad. There does not seem to be an option for this. I tried to import these contacts from the same gmail account i have on my windows lap top. Not available because my ipad operating system is not new enough.

2. When i tried to upgrade software/operating system from 5.1.1 to 7 ormhigher in the settings section of the ipad, I am informed that my software is up to date. No other choices.

Comment: When I tried to find software/operating systemupgrade in the Apple app store, all I seem to get as choices are new screen savers.

So, is there a way to import or create contact lists in this old IPad and /or upgrade the operating system?

Thanks for help.
