How to cancel an update

I was forced to update the firmware on my iPod Mini for some reason (I have been ignoring it for a while). Now my problem is I don't have the power adapter with me and it's asking me to plug it in to complete the update. Can I cancel the update? I'm on business trip so I won't be able to get to my power adapter until I get back. I would like to listen to my music.

When updating or restoring some iPods via a usb connection, it needs to be plugged into power via the charger to complete the process, and this is why you see that icon displayed. It's also why older iPods that required this step were supplied with a power adaptor as standard.
You may be able to complete the process via a car charger, or via a powered firewire port on the computer (with the required 6 pin cable of course) if you have access to either of those. Or maybe visit an Apple store if one is nearby.
Or you can try this.

Other than that, your iPod cannot be used until you complete this process.

HT1222 How to cancel software update in ipad?????

I am using ipad 2.. And accidently update the software.... I am on the road.. How to cancel it,,,,.????

It's never a good idea to interrupt an iOS update. If it has already started, I would let it continue until done. If it's still *downloading* the update, there *may* be a point after the download finishes where you may be able to cancel it but I'm not sure about that.
If it has already been updated (downloaded/installed), then no, you cannot go back to the previous iOS version (if this is what you are wanting to do).

How to cancel or update a scheduled report instance?

Is it possible to update or cancel a scheduled report instance? How is this done in the java API, is there an example?
If a report is scheduled by mistake as a recurring report there has to be some way to stop it, correct?
We are using Crystal Reports 2008.
Thanks,
--Jeff Hall.

Thanks very much for your reply Adam!!
Is there a way to pause the instance? Is there example code to implement some of the functions in the Instance Manager portion of the CMS Console?
Thanks,

HT4623 how to cancel software update to ios6 on iPhone 4

Hit update software w/o realizing it was going to update to ios 6. How do I cancel the download? Have it paused by suspending wi fi connection currently.

Good evening everyone who is having this problem listed as "How to stop the software update on iOS". Software update of iOS starts downloading in background if the iPad or the iPod or maybe the iPhone is connected to a WiFi network and is charging.If you just tap "Download and Install" and having any kind of problem in downloading the iOS update or your carrier is charging too much for that limit of data or the update is too large for your data plan and you by mistake tap the "Download and Install" and the downloading started and you switch off WiFi and again switch it on but the downloading resumes.It is very easy to cancel the iOS update.You can just fill up all the memory with any thing you want like Photos,Videos,Games,Apps and when the memory becomes less than the size of the update the update will be cancelled automatically and display an error message saying "The update was cancelled due less storage available please free up some storage". Thank You for asking your problem.

How can I cancel an update?

I decided to update to iOS 6.1.6 because I wanted an update on my software and it gave me the instructions to sync it to iTunes. I did so, but it is still there! Can anyone tell me how to cancel my update if possible?
I am using an iPod Touch 4th Generation with iOS 6.1.3 i believe

Hey Severrassien, It is difficult to understand what or how you are updating. Can you include details as they appear on your iPod and computer. If I'm understanding-- you have physically connected your iPod to your computer with the charging cable, right? If so what version of iTunes are you running? Is it current, if not, update date iTunes first, then connect with your computer and from your iPod page tap on update. If this does not work, what are you being told from your computer and/or iPod? Are there any error messages? What are the messages? From what you have posted it's all I know to help you, (you have baffled Illaass and he is one of the best) more information would be helpful. Good luck. Cheers.

How do I cancel an update do OSX 10.9.5?

Dear list members, I had serious trouble (crash, freezing) after updating my old iMac 27" (Late 2009) to OSX 10.9.5. Now I formatted my hard drive and fresh installed OSX 10.9.2. However, without me asking for it (I didn't turn on auto-update), the App Store downloaded OSX 10.9.5 and wants to update my system after a reboot (please see the screenshot). How do I cancel this update? I'm sure OSX 10.9.5 will make my iMac crash again, so I'd better wait for a debugged version, which will surely have to come soon, as several users are having similar problems. Thanks!

I use an app, today there is an update, so I push it to update. Is giving some error, not possible to upload,.. May the server is too busy?,.. So the app is on hold,.. Waiting...
In any case, I need to to use the app... But I can not get it to open ....how do I go about canceling the update?

If there's no important data, delete and re-install.

After updating to Mavericks the apps store gives me the message "This update is not available for this Apple ID either because it was bought by a different user or the item was refunded or cancelled." How do I still update my apps??

What happened was you never accepted these apps into your Mac App Store account.
Drag & drop the apps in the Trash and use OS X Recovery to install them again. after installing the apps be sure to accept them into your account this time from the Purchases pane of the Mac App Store.
