Why can't Safari download certain files - Apple iPad 64 GB WiFi

Some webpages no longer load on certain browsers. There are many reasons why this happens. Some browsers or websites require certain extensions, updates or security setting to be correct. Try accessing the page from another browser if if still has issues it is more likely the problem lies with the website rather than your browser.

Try downloading the Facebook app for iPad. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/facebook/id284882215?mt=8 It should work better and faster, and won't give you any problems uploading pictures from your iPad.

You should really use the app store, but otherwise most downloads wont work because the iPad doesn't have many file programs

You could check to see if there are apps available for the games your are trying to download. The iPad doesn't support many of the files you may be used to on your computer.

If there is a specific game you're looking for, leave a comment below and I will be more than happy to try and help to find an iPad compatible version.

Hope that helps!

You cannot download programs from safari.Downloads have to come from appstore.

I think you can do that in Apple's website.

The authorised way of downloading apps on the ipad is via the app store. Go to the app store and find the apps using the search facillity that you are trying to download via safari and they will instal properly. You must remember that safari is not really a fully functional browser as it would be on a desktop machine. You will not be able to download things like flash games or use flash enhanced websites. Hope this helps.

You have to download an app for documents like Open Office to download and open on your iPad. Safari won't let you download certain files from the internet. Apps like Downloads HD are one of those apps that lets you download almost anything from your iPad and open it from within the app or from another app that can open that file you downloaded.

.exe files are Microsoft Windows Executable files, that can only run on Microsoft Windows. They cannot be run on the iPad, so Safari doesn't download them.
The place to get apps for the iPad is the App Store - have a search, there'll probably be something that can do what you need. Out of interest, what are you trying to do? I may be able to suggest an app.

Microsoft Silverlight is a plugin that only works on some desktop browsers. It is never going to be supported in Safari, because it is rapidly becoming outdated - content providers should be using more modern, efficient and faster technologies. Depending on what you are trying to do, there may be a native way of doing it - search for it in the App Store.
You cannot download IE because Microsoft do not make IE for the iPad. You cannot run MS Windows programs (.exe files) on the iPad. If you don't want to use Safari to browse the web, just search 'browser' in the App Store, and you'll find soma alternatives.
Just remember: The App Store is the only place you can get apps for your iPad!
Hope that helped!
