IPad2 failed to complete iOS6 update

I started to update my iPad2 to iOS6. Part way the the setup it has gone to a black screen and won't progress. If I click the home button it tells me setup is incomplete. I can click Start Over, Wi-Fi Settings, or Continue. It does nothing on anything that I click. Any advice on how to fix this? I'm honestly not sure what OS I am upgrading from. I did not take the last upgrade, I'm not sure if I missed another one before that. TIA

What iOS is currently on the iPad?

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - 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 to iOS 5/6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • IPad2 won't connect to anything after IOS6 Update

    Does anyone have any new ideas how to make an iPad2 connect to iStore/Internet/Anything network related after IOS6 Update?
    I have tried everything listed on Apple support Communities including release and renew IP/ Hard reset the iPad/ Let it go completely dead and give it a full charge before rebooting/Forget the network and rest all my settings/ Hard reset my router/Change my router channel. Shall I go on
    I even took the ipad to the Apple Genius Bar (or should I say Minimum wage High School student bar) Where I was told that the ipads connection problem was my router when they couldn't get it to connect in the store. I guess if I had a better router the ipad would be able to connect to it half way across the city.
    Well anyway it's been 3 months since I have been able to use my ipad2 so if no one here knows how to make it work it's galaxy note 10.1 time I already upgraded my iphone 5 to the Galaxy Note 2 and couldn't be happier with a phone

    Not related. Installing Lion doesn't make any changes to a wireless router and/or wireless network the computer is connected to that Lion is installed on.
    Try resetting the router. Disconnect all computers and devices connected to your wireless network. Unplug the wireless router from its power source to turn it off. Do the same with the modem the wireless router is connected to. Wait a few minutes followed by plugging your modem back in and allow the modem to completely reset before plugging your wireless router back in to power it back on allowing it to completely reset with a new connection with the modem. Follow this by reconnecting every computer and device to your wireless network.

  • Mac OS X 10.6.8, receiving error message "Failed to check for updates. The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted." How to fix?

    When I try to update my software, I'm receiving the error message "Failed to check for updates. The operation couldn't be completed. Operation not permitted."
    I'm using Safari 4.0.3. Yes, I know this is an old version of Safari - I can't update it, or any other software on my MacBook. Should I just wait for the Lion OS, or is there any kind of fix a non-technical Mac user like me can attempt without screwing up her laptop?
    I've tried clearing my cache and resetting Safari already - doesn't help. I've also tried to update after disabling my (Norton) antivirus software, thinking that might be interfering. None of these help.
    I don't know if it's a related problem, but also I can't download .pdf files from the internet, although I used to be able to.

    You should use the NortonAV uninstaller to uninstall it. Disabling the dreadful thing in the past hasn't always been sufficient for it to cease creating system havoc. The Mac NortonAV version has a long and well-earned reputation for doing truly seriously nasty things to OS X. Shame on Comcast for inflicting NortonAV on its Mac customers. It's not a matter of if NortonAV will mess up OS X but when and how badly. I can't help but wondering if some setting in your Norton AV has decided that NortonAV, rather than you, will be making executive decisions about what you are allowed to install on your computer and is keeping that fact a secret.
    After you are done uninstalling Norton use the finder to search for any Norton files that the uninstaller might have missed. Add the option to search for invisible files.
    After you have removed all the Norton bits and pieces restart in safe mode by holding down the shift key right after the startup chime. Keep holding down the shift key until you see the Apple logo and spinning gear. Safe mode does some maintenance tasks which means a much longer than normal startup time. Use Disk Utility to repair permission
    If your Mac works normally in safe mode restart. If things still aren't fixed you might want to give another shot at reinstalling Snow Leopard from the install DVD and applying the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo before taking your Mac to the Apple Store.
    If you feel the need to run AV software on your Mac use ClamXav in manual mode. It's donationware and doesn't seem to cause the litany of weird problems that are associated with other AV software.

  • HT204204 update software fails to complete

    I have iphone 4s and had iOS 6. Today I tried to install iOS 8. My phone fails to complete the install and is locked up. What should I do?

    Hi fifemidwife,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are trying to install iOS 8 on your iPhone 4s. The article you were linked from provides two methods to update, updating wirelessly and using iTunes. Did you try both? If you only tried one, try the other. If you still have difficulties, let us know what is happening and we can see what other options are avilable.

  • Getting "We could not complete your update. Failed to verify the preflight file..."

    getting "We could not complete your update.  Failed to verify the preflight file.  It is not signed by Apple."  message when trying to update Apps via the App Store.  Get similar message for download of a free app.   Console message is:10/23/13 2:00:27.610 PM storeagent[310]: *** Assertion failure in -[ISCheckPreflightOperation verifyDistributionAtURL:allowsDevSign:allowsUnsigned:osVersionToBeInstalled:err or:distributionController:], /SourceCache/Pisa/Pisa-232/ISCheckPreflightOperation.m:314
    Any ideas?

    Similar threads solve this problem by either creating a new administrator identity, which allows one to update applications, or changing the keychain prefs to Best attempt.  My issue was solved by adding a new admin user, and then updating the apps from the App store using the new identity.  Under my orginal user identity the keychain app would crash when I attempted to open Prefs.  After creating a new identity and updating the applications (iPhoto, etc) I found I was able to open the keychain Prefs logged into my orginal identity.

  • IPad fails to complete IOS 4.3 update

    My iPad failed to complete the IOS 4.3 update. The message in iTunes said the iPad needs to be restored, but the restore fails to complete. I tried a different cable and USB port on my iMac. I charged my iPad for a few hours and tried it again. My iTunes is version 10.2.1. This is a iPad 1 (Wifi version).
    iTunes runs through the restore process until it says "restoring iPad software" and almost completes the install. The restore completes until about 90% or so of the way and just hangs up.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I had the same problem and called Apple. Here's what we did: I held down both the Home button and the Sleep button at the same time until the iPad rebooted. Then the iPad screen changed to the iTunes icon and a USB cord. When I opened iTunes, I could now see the iPad (previously it hadn't shown up) and got an error message. The Apple tech said I would need to restore the factory settings. I did and it took a while since my iPad is loaded with aps and music, but it all came back since it was backed up on my Mac.
    Good luck! They are hearing from a lot of people with this (but I'm the only one I know with an iPad who had the issue) and didn't charge me--I don't have the extended care plan.

  • Unable to restart after a Security update failed to completely download.

    I was downloading a security update. It failed to completely download. When I tried to restart the computer, it will get up to the blue screen background of the user login page. It will not go any further. I tried using the >Shift< key to get it into a SAFE mode but nothing happens except the progress indicator revolves. Should it be revolving over 3 hours and still no progress is seen? Is there something else I can do? Is there Apple or 3rd party software that could perhaps fix it? Please help I don't want to start from the beginning and re-install everything.

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions ...
    Try Disk Utility. You need your system restore disk.
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
    5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
    One reason that an update can't finish is that you didn't use Disk Utility to Repair Disk Permissions before you ran the udpate. Second possibility is not enough free disk space. If you haven't upgraded the hard disk in your iBook, it probably has a 60GB drive or less. Never allow your free drive space fall below 20% of the total drive. This information can be viewed in Disk Utility at the bottom of the page with MacintoshHD 10.4 selected in the panel on the left.
