I've downloaded current update for iPad 2 but it won't install. It keeps coming up as an error. I have deleted many apps but didn't help the situation... What's causing this and how do I fix this?

What is the latest iOS for iPad 2? Is it iOS 7 or can you update to 8?
all I remember is that my iPad mini performed poorly under iOS 7. Try to update it to the very latest version. Also you will have to use iOS 8.1.3, because 8.1.2 is no longer signed in case you were trying to install that. You can get the latest IPSW from http://IPSW.me just enter in your device and it will forward you to the right Apple ios download link.
Another thing is keeping your device memory free, if you have a 16 gig device, it's harder to keep space free. my iPad mini is 16 gig, but all I can ever keep free is 1 GB so I keep it at that. Turn off "iCloud photo sharing beta" and that will help a little bit. also when you do a restore from iTunes, don't restore your backup right away, see how it performs fresh, and then add your apps back in one at a time you might have to sacrifice photos and other personal things for performance.

I tried to restore my iPod Touch after too many incorrect passcodes were tried. iTunes downloaded an update for 4 hours, but nothing changed with the iPod.

My daughter's friends tried to guess her password on her iPod Touch 4th generation too many times, and now she is locked out, and the iPod displays the message, "iPod is disabled. connect to iTunes." I connected it and tried to restore it. iTunes recognizes the iPod. iTunes said it needed to download an update, although everything on both the iPod and iTunes should be current. The update ran for over 4 hours, but when it ended, nothing else happened. The iPod is still disabled. How can I fix this? Thanks.

- Try a reset. Nothing will be lost.
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Next try a manual install. See:
iDevice Troubleshooting 101 :: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch
- Place in recovery mode and the retore. For recovery mode:

Uninstall the old Flash plugin versions > Troubleshoot Flash Player | Mac OS
And turn OFF Extensions in Sarfari > Prerferences > Extensions. Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
And check to see if Safari is running in 32 bit mode. Right or control click the Safari icon in your Applications folder then click Get Info. If the box next to: Open in 32 bit mode is selected, deselect, quit then relaunch Safari.

Hi Robertfrom Denver.
Did you try the solution given, and if yes, did it work?
I have done several "attempted downloads, and see the full file download, typically taking 30 minutes to complete, and then something goes wrong.
I am happy to suspend AV and FW software, but would like to know if it is a good fix or not first?

Do I have to download another update for iPad Air. I downloaded one last Wednesday. Now cannot stream to Apple TV very well. Nothing is clear on the blogs or Google.

I usually stream recorded TV from the FilmOn app. iPad Air 8 to Apple TV. I've had no problems until I downloaded an update as requested last Wednesday. Now everything starts and stops. I get a timer bar on the TV as if it is stopping to buffer every 2 or 3 minutes - then it restarts after about 3 minutes. Takes twice as long to watch a programme and very annoying! Also Skype extremely poor with broken picture and poor sound. (I am in New Zealand). I understand the update last week had many bugs. Does another update 8.2 cure last weeks 8.1 ?
thanks,
C.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
First you should try logging out of your iTunes Store account (settings > iTunes Store > accounts) and then back in again.
If that doesn't help, try resetting the Apple TV (Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings). You should also try restarting your router.
If both of the above don't help, you should try a restore (Settings > General > Reset > Restore).

IOS 5 update for iPad 2 but locks up performing a backup

ITunes updated fine, downloaded iOS 5 software ready for update.
Already backed up iPad, all 27gb of files and apps.
Tried running update, but get as far as backup ticker and it appears to lock up.
Let it run for 2 hours tonight, but ticker didn't move more than 1cm.
The iPad displays Sync.
I'm stuck now. I have no error message, so I don't know where to turn to.
I've trawled the web & forums, but I can't find anyone with an identical problem.
All help greatly appreciated.

I've got the same problem!! I'm using iTunes 10.5 which loaded great, and I connected my iPhone 4, and it told me to update to iOS 5, which I did. It downloaded the iOS and told me not to cancel it and it can take up to an hour so don't worry... well its been 3 hours now as of this post where I am at is as follows:
1. At the top it says "Downloading one item" iPhone Software Update (processing file)
2. My iPhone 4 shows it as "sync in progress"
3. There is a popup that says Backing up iPhone, and the progress bar is just barely green, about 1 cm also
4. I have a dual core computer and both of the cores are maxed out at 100%, however the HDD light doesn't flash
I don't want to cancel it, but I have a feeling that it's frozen and there isn't going to be a fix! I'm going to let it run for the rest of the night...but after reading some other peoples problems i'm not holding my breath for resolution tomorrow morning!

Installed latest iTunes 10.4 iPhone updated IOS and works and syncs fine now iTunes locks up and hard crashes syncing my iPad Gen1 and while downloading IOS update for iPad times out

Cannot download Pages update for iPad

I receive the pop up that the Pages update cannot be downloaded at this time. While I am stuck in this 'unable to download' loop, I cannot use the app. How can I cancel this loop and restart the download successfully?

Have you tried shutting down your iPad & then restarting it? Hold down the sleep/wake button until you get the message asking if you want to shut down & slide to OK. Wait a minute or so & restart the iPad.

I'm trying to Download an update for my Ipad 2 but it keeps failing

I'm trying to Download an update for my Ipad 2 but it keeps failing for 2 weeks now Internet connection is perfect and I've downloaded much larger files with no problem at all.

Hi
I don't have the original Ipad, I tried to download the update with itunes and over the wifi and both failed

While downloading software update for Itunes, getting message saying detecting Ipad in recovery mode and telling us to restore Ipad to original settings, which we don't want to do. Also cannot turn on Ipad; shows Itunes symbol with connector. Help!

No promises but a System Reset is worth trying:
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.
A System Reset does not remove any apps, music, movies, etc. nor does it cause any settings to revert back to default.
Also, you might wish to download the iPad-2 User Guide. Pay special attention to page 162. Note that this Guide also applies to the iPad-1 with IOS 4.3 except for those functions that are not supported by the hardware.
http://support.apple.com/manuals/#ipad
Finally, the User Guide can be downloaded at no charge via iBooks and a less comprehensive version of the Guide is included as a Safari bookmark.
