How can I push out an IOS update to 500 iPads?

I am responsible for 500+ iPads at my school and would like to push IOS updates to them.

There is no way to just go push ios updates remotely without a third party application, if that is what you meant. To update ios you have many options. You can go to each iPad and download the ios. Or show the students how to download the ios themselves. But if I were you I would get an iPad cart, and go to few classes a day, collect the iPads during that period and use apple configurator application to download the updated ios. Then give the iPads back. If you have any more question just give me your school e-mail address and I will help as best as I can.
-Hope this helps.

How can apple send out an os update that renders an important function of the software/hardware to not work? They knowingly have sent out this new os update for iPad which makes airplay nonfunctining! I need this for my business!

How can apple send out an os update that renders an important function of the software/hardware to not work? They knowingly have sent out this new os update for iPad which makes airplay nonfunctining! I need this for my business! I could understand if they didn't know, but it is all over the Internet! When I went in to have it revert back to os6 (which worked fine!) I was actually asked if I had done any research before I installed the upgrade! As if this is the consumer's fault for being dumb enough to fall for the upgrade!

That is not what I have discovered, nor what others have discovered, nor what I was told when I went the Genius Bar. I cannot remotely mirror to my MacBook Pro and it only started the day after I installed the upgrade. We tested it with an iPad that had not been upgraded, no problem.

How can I restore the previous ios version on my IPad?

In the previous version of the os, I frequently used the tool "maps".
It was very helpfull to find b&b around a place.
Now the new tool is **** !
No more metadata...
So I lost the major interest of my IPad when I go abroad...
I'm so surprised to see the evolution! What a progress... 3D indeed but a major regression in the usability !
So how can I roll back to the previous IOS ?
Quickly help needed please...
Thanks

dear Tom,
since last US election 'YES WE CAN'
I found a tuto on the web hopefully...
unfortunately the only way to keep a real map tool and not a garbage one

How can I "clean out" my iCloud storage on my iPad?

Lately I have been getting messages saying that I con't have enough space in my iCloud storage to backup my iPad and lately my iPad has been acting up and going really slow, freezing, and closing out apps. How do I "clean out" my iCloud storage so that I will have enough room? I saw an option to delete the backup, but I don't want to do that because that deletes everything...right? And I need a lot of those apps backed up. What should I do?

Settings>General>Usage>iCloud>Manage Storage

How can I push a personal video to an entire iPad cart?

We are currently using Apple Configurator and Cisco Meraki to manage updates and applications. We have the video file uploaded to the school's iTunes account but can't seem to figure out how to push the video file to all of the iPads in the cart at once.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

HT4623 How do I get the latest IOS update for my iPad 1st generation model# MB294LL?

I have a 1st generation iPad that has a very outdated IOS version due to I forgot how to update. I do not have the update option in my setting menu like you find in newer iPads. Any suggestion?

See the section on Updating Using iTunes:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
Note: the highest version of iOS the original iPad can support is iOS 5.1.1

How can I cancel an app store update on my iPad?

Ok so I have 2 problems really; I've been playing Real Racing 3 for awhile, and an update came out recently. I checked to make sure I had enough space, which I did, and attempted to update. It waited a few seconds, then told me I didn't have enough storage space, which I know I do (update is approximately 840mb, I have 1.6gb of free space). But my most pressing problem is that apparently, once this update is installed the app doesn't work according to reviews. I would very much like real racing to work, so I'm hoping to cancel the update but no matter what I do it won't work. Is it possible to cancel an update?

What should I do then? I can't even update it if I wanted to.

How can I opt out of Safari on Apple Update?!

I personally hate Safari and don’t want it on my machine but I want to keep Apple update for ITunes and Quicktime. How can I opt out of Safari updates for good!?
I don’t understand why Apple did this… its very annoying to keep getting this popping up on my computers!
-Aaron

+I should have said I know how to opt out of a single update+
Okay, it sounds like you know about the "Tools > Ignore Selected Updates" trick in ASU.
At this stage, perhaps the thing to do is to make an enhancement request (for the ability to permanently ignore types of update in ASU) direct to Apple using the product feedback forms:
Product Feedback
Since there's no form for ASU itself, probably the best form to use would be the iTunes product feedback form, given that ASU comes as part of the iTunes installer bundle.
(Unfortunately, that's not likely to be a short term solution for you ... but it might produce some results in the medium-term, with any luck.)

How prevent Apple from WiFi-uploading iOS Updates

I am running iOS7 on my deveices and have disabled automatic updates.
Now I see that they misued my WiFi-connection twice to upload iOS 8 and 8.02. I know how to delete them but don't want to allow this misuse in the first place.
As owner of my devices I find this intrusive behavior impertinent and unacceptable.
How can I stop uploading unwelcome iOS updates against my will into the memory of my devices?

I configured all my iOS devices to sync with my MBP Retina (over wifi) - but the problem is that when I am using my MBA, the devices will also automatically connect to the MBA Itunes over wifi when I launch iTunes in the MBA.
Is there any way to prevent auto connection to the MBA?

Google "DFU mode", put it in that mode and Restore it in iTunes.
And stay away from jailbreaking.

This is a tedious solution, which is stupid! And some users report an inability to reauthorize a computer after an "en masse” deauthorization. I can’t believe Apple doesn’t provide a list or menu to find out which computers you’ve authorized! Obviously, APPLE knows (or else they couldn’t tell us how many computers we have authorized)--so why can’t they give us access to that information about our own computers??!!!
And for an already-authorized computer with a hard drive that’s since been replaced and upgraded from Mavericks to Yosemite, would it be recognized as a “new computer” and require authorization? Would its previous incarnation (i.e., with the old hard drive and OS) be considered a separate computer? Some users report they can’t authorize a computer after an OS upgrade because of that. Can’t believe we have to do such a bass-ackwards kludge!

HT4623 I updated my iphone with IOS 7 and my wifi and bluetooth is not working. How can I go back to IOS 6?

I have updated my iphone 4s with the last version IOS 7.0.2.

How can I go back to IOS 6?

Downgrading the iOS is not supported at all.

How can I figure out what my password is and keep it unlocked? Every time I do a system update, it requires the password and sends me into cyber trouble with the remember my keychain access, requiring it every time I log in. A real hassle to be avoided

How can I find out what my password on the computer is? I had to change it due to my teenagers helping themselves, and now every time there is a system update, I have to have the password, which I cannot remember or find. It then wants it every time I log in and pops up Key Chain Access as well. Very annoying. I do not have the disc to reload it and fear I would loose everything on my computer as there is also trouble with the back up system. Too many issues and not enough solutions. Many thanks in advance!

I do not have the disc to reload
Why not? You need your system dvds to troubleshoot & to reset/change passwords in view of your current OS listed in your profile.
You can get replacement System Install & Restore CD/DVDs from Apple's Customer Support - in the US, (800) 767-2775 - for a nominal S&H fee. You'll need to have the model and/or serial number of your Mac available.
If you're not in the US, you may need to go through the regional Apple Store that serves your location to find the contact number. Here's a list of links to all of those - http://store.apple.com/Catalog/US/Images/intlstoreroutingpage.html Another resource: International Support Phone #s.
===============
I have to have the password, which I cannot remember or find.
When selecting passwords, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure out.
Old school--- > Print it out & keep in a safe place. A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.
New school---> Get a password manager utility. Highly recommend 1Password which is shareware. Do a Google search for free password managers.
