How do I stop my Ipad from updating to ios7? The update is on.

My ipad update is going on and I want to stop it. Is there a way to do that?

Once it's started, I don't believe you can cancel the update.

  • How do I stop my ipad from referencing an old apple id?  My old ID was deleted by an Apple representative months ago.  When I try to "update" my ipad it always references my old apple id which I no longer have a password for..help

    How do I stop my ipad from referencing an old apple id?  My old Apple ID was my old email address.  I contacted Apple and it was deleted by an Apple representative months ago.  Whenever I try to "update" my ipad (games etc.)  it always references my "old apple id" which I no longer have a password for or have any access too..help

    Problem is...I do NOT know the password for this "old" apple id.  I haven't used this apple id in over 1 year and it "suddenly" started to show up.  I can NOT update or down load any updates without knowing the old apple id's password either.  I am getting help.  I was able to contact tech support and they are in the process of helping me within an email reply to "reset" my password from that old Apple id, in the next 24 hours.           
    Thank you all for your help!  I hope we are able to resolve this issue.  Again, it is very odd that my "old" email or original Apple ID decided to appear after such a long span.  I will keep you all posted as to how it was resolved when I hear back via an email.

  • How do I stop my iPad from going 'ding' loudly every time I get an iMessage?

  • How do i stop my ipad from automatically deleting my hotmail inbox and putting it into pop trash?

    how do i stop my ipad from automatically deleting my hotmail inbox and putting it into pop trash? It has only started doing it since i synced with my MacBook Air

    If emails are being deleted, then it's not the Apple products, it's the POP account.  When one device reads an email, it's removed from the server, so the other devices can't get that same email.  That's a POP account.

  • How do I stop my iPad from blanking out returning to main screen?

    How do I stop my iPad from going out and retiring to the main screen?

    I just posted this same thing in another thread. Try the first tip and then try the reset. If that doesn't work, then close all apps - the last tip. If none of these work for you, a restore of your device may be in order. Hopefully one of these will work.
    Try downloading another app - any free app will do. That seems to reset something and it may work for you. If not, try all of the steps below.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Close all apps. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.

  • How do i stop my ipad from switching from 3G to Edge?

    How do i stop my ipad from switching from 3G to Edge?

    The iPad will use whatever the best service that is available - if you are in an area where 3G coverage is patchy (which may be due to reception or the network bandwidth being used up) then it will step down to Edge, and then possibly down to GPRS.

    Thanks for trying those steps out!
    Rtbeal, I would recommend that you contact AppleCare so they can run further tests and diagnostics to help you solve your solution better.
    If you can also access an Apple Store Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Center, that would be much better.
    Go to https://locate.apple.com/country for further support with your device!
    Thanks,

  • How do i stop plug ins from updating

    Once or twice a week a box will pop up about updating plugins, then a completely different Firefox browser than I use pops up, there are no bookmarks in this browser, I close it, open my regular Firefox browser and all my bookmarks are gone.
    How do I stop this updater from doing this?

    What does the update window look like? This is the official plugin update site:
    https://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/
    Is that it, or something else?
    What you're seeing may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized add-ons on these two tabs:
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Plugins category<br>
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    If you would like comments on whether any of your extensions look untrustworthy, you can extract a list from the Troubleshooting Information page. Either:
    * Help > Troubleshooting Information
    * type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter
    In the upper left corner is a button to "Copy text to clipboard". When pasting into a reply, you'll see a lot of preference information below the extensions list. You can delete that lower part if you don't want comments on those.

  • How do I stop my iPad from downloading songs from iTunes match?

    I wanted to download some songs onto my iPad from my iTunes Match library as I was going to be out for a few days. Three songs in, my router crashed through no fault of my own(someone was messing with the cable company connections without knowing what they were doing, apparently), and now I have 513 songs (most of which I did not choose to download but instead they got mistakenly added to a much smaller playlist...) downloading. I cannot feasibly go through my iTunes Match library and stop download of all 513 songs individually, and for some reason they are not downloading and not stalling out, probably because there are so many of them and my router is back online and so it is trying to download all at once and so slowing down to a standstill???
    How do I stop download of all those songs without hard-restarting my iPad?

    The iPad will use whatever the best service that is available - if you are in an area where 3G coverage is patchy (which may be due to reception or the network bandwidth being used up) then it will step down to Edge, and then possibly down to GPRS.

  • How can I stop my ipod from updating to 6.0.1?

    I was updating th settings to the latest software and hours later I found my screen had a sign that said plug into itunes.  I plugged it into itunes, but screen didn't change and the software isn't updating!  How can I stop the software from updating?

    Put the iPod into DFU (Device Firmware Update mode). You software got corrupted, so you will have to restore your iPod which erases all data and settings.

  • How can I stop a JFrame from closing when clicking the close button.

    I need to display a dialog when a user attempts to close my app, giving them the option to close, minimize or cancel. How can I stop the form from closing after the user makes his selection? I have the folllowing code, but my form still closes after selecting an option:
    private void formWindowClosing(java.awt.event.WindowEvent evt) {                                  
            //An array of Strings to be used a buttons in a JOptionDialog
            String[] options = {"Close", "Minimize", "Cancel"};
            //Determines what the user wants to do
            int result = JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(null, "What to you want to do?  Close the application, minimize or cancel?", "Please select an option...", 0, JOptionPane.QUESTION_MESSAGE, null, options, options[0]);
           //Determines what to do, depending on the user's choice
            if (result == 0) {
                //Close the application
                System.exit(0);
            } else if (result == 1) {
                //Minimize the application
                this.setState(Frame.ICONIFIED);
        }Any help would be much appreciated!

    import java.awt.event.*;

    public class test extends JFrame {
         public static void main( String[] args ) {
              new test();
         public test() {
              setSize( 200, 200 );
              //the next line makes the JFrame not close
              setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE );
              //now add a listener that does the trick
              addWindowListener( new WindowAdapter() {
                        public void windowClosing( WindowEvent e ) {
                             //ask the user and do whatever you wish
              setVisible( true );

  • How do I stop my Notes from being set to the default mail account?

    I just bought an IPhone 5s and I'm loving it except....  Every time I create a new Note or change an existing Note, the Note shows up in my Outlook Inbox as an email.  How do I stop this from happening?  Thx

    Thank you.  What is the difference when I log into my mail, prefereces, accounts, allow notes in inbox and click No.  Nothing seemed to happen when I did that.  Thank you.  I am such an amateur

  • How can i access my iPad from my macbook if the display is out?  i would like to  back up all my information but i cannot "allow" access on the iPad if i cannot see the iPad display.  Suggestions?

    Just found out that my display is hosed on my iPad 2.  Connecting it to my macbook prompts me to "allow' access on the iPad 2.  I cannot do so because this information is on the iPad 2 display.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
