Had to restore my iPad because of stopping an update - will it be okay?

It was updating to the new OS while connected to my computer, but I had to leave in a rush while it was still updating. So I closed my laptop while it was updating. I didn't unplug the iPad itself, but the laptop went into stand-by mode.
When I came back to the iPad, it made me restore it to factory settings, and now everything is working properly. My only concern is that I may have damaged the iPad in some way and it might get messed up in the future - is this possible, or if it's working fine now after restoring, I should be fine?
Thanks!

It also may take a bit for Apple servers to update your information. You are sure it is this iPad that you removed from your Apple ID?
I would wait an hour or so and try it again. You may want to put it in Recovery Mode:

Hi Skydiver119
Thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my problem.
Yes the purchases were made though my apple id.
I have looked at a few other questions on this topic and I have read that the app data is stored in the backup file but the apps themselves need to be synced back onto the ipad. Someome has mentioned right clicking on sync my ipad but I don't know where to find that to right click on!! Lol.
Again, I really appreciate your time and if by any chance you know where I can 'right click' I would really appreciate you letting me know as I can't get my ipad to sync with my pc at all, although it is being picked up in itunes and it has backed up to itunes okay. GGrrr. Maybe I have something wrong in the settings which is not making them compatible?

- If you used PhotoStream then try getting some of them from your PhotoStream. See that topic of:

- Maybe from the restored iPod via

I used to have Emoji on my iPod when I first bought it. I had to restore my iPod because it went into recovery mode and it deleted everything. How do I get Emoji back? Do I have to buy it off iTunes?

I have had to restore my ipad how long does it take its only two weeks old

i have had to restore my ipad 2 how long does it take and its only two weeks old

Depends on what method you chose to restore, wifi or itunes. Speed of internet and of computer. Whether you're restoring to factory settings or from a backup. There are many factors involved.
Without knowing any other info, I would plan on anywhere from 30min. to 2hrs

I had to restore my iPad mini. Now when I go to the App Store and tap the cloud to reload some of my apps, it times out and they won't load. Any suggestions?

Close the App Store app and reset your iPad.
Now close all apps. In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
In order to reset your iPad, hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen after which time you can release the buttons and let the iPad start up.
IF that didn't help, try turning WiFi off on your iPad in the Settings, restart the iPad, then turn Wifi on again.

I have had to restore my iPad 4 3 times today so far. Why?

Three times today I have had to restore my ipad. I can't figure out why.

We cannot figure it out either ... without a whole lot more information from you.
What else has happened recently that might possibly have caused this?

There shouldn't be any problem but, if you are worried, do a backup before the update.

working files aare not backed up as far as I know. You must either 1)"copy to itunes", then use itunes to save as... to your desktop machine. Or 2) use iCloud to keep the docs.
I also learned this the hard way. No way i know of to get the working docs back.
