If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • How to upgrade to latest Pages 4.0.3?

    My existing Pages version is 4.0.2. Recently I got a notice that 4.0.3 is available for update when I open Pages. Then I click the button to allow update download and installation.
    However, after software update and rebooting my MacBookPro, my Pages was not updated at all. The version is still 4.0.2. I tried to click Mac OS Software Update multiple time, it still said there is no latest software update available.
    Please suggest how should I upgrade to Pages 4.0.3 from my existing status. Should I have to delete the whole iWorks and install everything again?

    Thanks for your wonderful reply. I have ever changed the iWork '09 folder to iWork 09 folder. After following your advice to modify the iWork folder with correct name and redo the Software Update again, now it can detect that and download and install the latest iWork.

    However, after software update and rebooting my MacBookPro, my Numbers was not updated at all. The version is still 2.0.2. I tried to click Mac OS Software Update multiple time, it still said there is no latest software update available.

    There could be several causes. First, none of the applications should be running, but the installer/updater tells you to quit the applications. Second, you need to be logged in as an administrator. Although just entering an admin name & password may appear to work, it may not "stick." I don't know for sure that's true, but I do recall similar situations in the past. Finally, if you're not running the latest versions & Software Update says your software is up to date, make sure the applications are where the installer initially put them. The updaters are very picky. If the location is not where the updater is programmed to look or if the folder doesn't have the name the updater looks for, it will not work. The applications cannot be renamed or moved. They must be in the iWork '09 folder in Applications. That iWork folder must be named iWork '09. If it doesn't have the '09 Software Update won't find them & the updaters won't work. Also, the iWork '09 updater is a single updater for all three applications & may not work if one or two are "missing" from the iWork '09 folder

  • How do upgrade to latest version of in design?

    I just installed a new application of CS 6 on my Windows 8.1 PC.  After the install, I updated all applications, presuming I would have the most recent version.
    I attempted to open an InDesign document created from a different machine earlier in the week.  This is the error message I received:  "Cannot open document name" because it was saved with a newer version of Adobe InDesign CC (9.1).
    You must use that version or later to open the file.  To then enable it to be opened in this version, choose Save As InDesign CS4 or later, or export to IDML.
    Shouldn't I have the latest version of the software since I just ran an update?

    CS6 came out in spring of 2012, and it is not the latest version of the applications. It was updated until 2013 when Creative Cloud versions of the applications were released.
    CS6 is called a perpetual license. This means that it will not longer be updated, but you can continue to use it on your computers as long as it runs under your current operating system.
    To switch to Creative Cloud versions, you need to purchase a subscription. One advantage of Creative Cloud is that you will continue to receive updates. For example, the 2014 version of CC application were just released this month.

  • How to upgrade to latest version on Ubuntu 10.10 LTSP server

    I run Ubuntu 10.10 LTSP server/client network and DO NOT want to upgrade Ubuntu... too much trouble, nobody can guarantee it will not hammer my LTSP install and besides, Unity is awful. I need newer Firefox due to some frequently used web pages, so I need an install procedure that will not hammer anything. It's a mission critical user environment. If anybody has positive experience with Firefox upgrade in similar environment please advise.

    Hello InterpreDemon,
    Thank you for contacting Mozilla Support. Since this is an out of date version of Ubuntu it may be hard to get assistance with this question. Have you attempted to install the current Linux version of Firefox?

    How to Upgrade to iOS 7
    The iOS 7.0 update requires around 2.5 GB of storage space, so if your iPad is almost full, you may need to clear up some space. You can check your available space in Settings -> General -> Usage.
    There are two ways to upgrade to iOS 7: You can use your Wi-Fi connection, or you can connect your iPad to your PC and update through iTunes. We'll go over each method.
    To upgrade using Wi-Fi:
    Note: If your iPad's battery is under 50%, you will want to plug it into your charger while performing the update.
        1.    Go into the iPad's Settings.
        2.    Locate and tap "General" from the menu on the left.
        3.    The second option from the top is "Software Update". Tap this to move into the update settings.
        4.    Tap "Download and Install". This will start the upgrade, which will take several minutes and will reboot your iPad during the process. If the Download and Install button is grayed out, trying clearing up some space. The space required by the update is mostly temporary, so you should gain most of it back after iOS 7 is installed.
        5.    Once the update is installed, you may have to run through the initial steps of setting up your iPad again. This is to account for new features and settings.
    To upgrade using iTunes:
    First, connect your iPad to your PC or Mac using the cable provided when you purchased your device. This will allow iTunes to communicate with your iPad.
    You will also need the latest version of iTunes. Don't worry, you will be prompted to download the latest version when you launch iTunes. Once it installs, you may be asked to setup iCloud by logging into your iTunes account. If you have a Mac, you may be prompted on whether or not you want to enable the Find my Mac feature.
    Now you are ready to begin the process:
        1.    If you upgraded iTunes earlier, go ahead and launch it. (For many, it will launch automatically when you plug in your iPad.)
        2.    Once iTunes is launched, it should automatically detect that a new version of the operating system exists and prompt you to upgrade to it. Choose Cancel. Before updating, you will want to manually sync your iPad to make sure everything is up to date.
        3.    After canceling the dialog box, iTunes should automatically sync with your iPad.
        4.    If iTunes doesn't automatically sync, you can manually do it by selecting your iPad within iTunes, clicking on the File menu and choosing Sync iPad from the list.
        5.    After your iPad has been synced to iTunes, select your iPad within iTunes. You can find it on the left side menu under Devices.
        6.    From the iPad screen, click on the Update button.
        7.    After verifying that you want to update your iPad, the process will begin. It takes a few minutes to update the operating system during which time your iPad may reboot a few times.
        8.    After updating, you may be asked a few questions when your device finally boots back up. This is to account for new settings and features.

  • HT4623 How I can upgrade my iPad (iOS 3.2.2) to iOS 4.0.0 or later ?

    How I can upgrade my iPad (iOS 3.2.2) to iOS 4.0.0 or later ?
    I'm from Indonesia. I have my iPad (the first version) from 2 years ago. Now I have a trouble to download some apps in App Store just because of the requirements doesn't support for my iPad. Nowadays most of apps are need iOS 4.0.0 or iOS 5.0.0. Please help me to upgrade my iPad (iOS 3.2.2) to iOS 4.0.0 or later ??? I have no idea. Thank you.

    You can only update to the current version (i.e. 5.1.1) as that is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple.
    You will need the latest version of iTunes on your computer - you can check if you are up-to-date via, on a PC, 'Help > Check For Updates'.
    When you have that installed, connect the iPad to your computer and on your computer's iTunes copy any purchases off the iPad via File > Transfer Purchases (you may also want to copy photos off the iPad as well) and then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'. You may also want to copy off the iPad any important documents, notes, files etc e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case.
    You can then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button.

    How do you update iPad iOS under Settings/General/Software if the Software button is non-existent?

    You do not have iOS 5 on your iPad so you have to update by using a computer via the latest version of iTunes. You can connect the iPad to your computer and launch iTunes. Select the iPad on the left side under the devices heading. Click on the Summary Tab on the right. Click on Check for Update.
    After you update to iOS 5 or later, you will have Software Update in you settings and can update via WiFi OTA. If you have the original iPad - you can only upgrade to iOS 5.1.1.

    How to update iPad iOS 5.1.1??

    If you need serious updating you might be in the market for a new ipad. If you do that, you can sell your ipad, though you won't get much $ for it these days. However, if you have a very Senior citizen in your life you might set it up for them with family pictures, music they loved years ago, some books, and get them online. These also help memory. Someone out there might find it a priceless gift.
    Also, the Apple online only Certified refurbished Store has deals on refurbished ipads. Each comes with a brand new front and back cover, a brand new battery, a full one year warranty including 90 days of free phone support, and it comes in a white box like a new ipad with the cables. We have two and they have been great. Shipping is free. I suggest if you buy refurb, you only buy it on the Apple website. 
    These sites listed below might help you get some older versions of apps.
    Hope this helps.
