If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, 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 an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

How do I upgrade iPad iOS

How do u upgrade iPad operating system to iOS 6
I am using ios4 now. When I go to systems then to general, there is no button for software update

The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you are on iOS 4 as your tagline suggests then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

Your iPad will be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

My iPad2 won't sync with iTunes. Upgraded iPad to iOS 6, iTunes is latest version (10.7). Cable connection. What am I missing?

My iPad2 won't sync with iTunes. Upgraded iPad to iOS 6, iTunes is latest version (10.7). Cable connection. What am I missing?

I'm having the same, identical problem. It goes into step 2 (backing up process) then it goes back to step one (finding iPad) and it starts over again. It will just keep doing that for 3 or 4 times until it will say "iPad not found". This is so frustrating.

Purchased iBook disappeared after upgrading iPad to iOS 8. Unable to re-download.

A student at my school recently lost an iBook after upgrading his iPad to iOS 8. After the upgrade, the book was just no longer on his bookshelf. Now, when trying to re-download from his Purchased list, the book just appears grayed out and does not download. He can download the book on his iPhone, which is iOS 7. We've tried: closing/re-opening iBooks, signing out/in of his Apple ID, Home button-Power button resetting the iPad, signing out of iTunes, checking storage despite not getting any errors (has 3GB available, book is under 10MB). No luck with any of that.. just a grayed out book that won't download. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks

Thank you SO much Stephaniefromlancaster -
I tried your solution and you're not nuts It worked!!!
