You can update the iOS using wifi, i.e., not connected to your computer.
If you are not connecting to the internet via wifi:

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • I can't upgrade my iphone4 from iOS5.01 to iOS5.1, tried many times, always showed "unknown error 1602", what should I do?

    I can't upgrade my iphone4 from iOS5.01 to iOS5.1, tried many times, always showed "unknown error 1602", what should I do?

    Error 1600, 1601, 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error: 
    Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
    Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
    This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service. 
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode, put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.

  • Can't update iPad since iTunes uses drive C. Solutions?

    Can't update iPad since iTunes uses drive C. Solutions?
    Yeah, I've seen this topic:

    Relocate iOS device backups
    Assuming you're running Windows Vista or later you can use the following steps:
    Open a command prompt by hitting the start button and typing CMD<Enter> in the search box that opens up.
    To move the current backup folder from C: to D: type in this command (on one line) and press <Enter>
    Move "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    Where <User> is your Windows user name.
    To make iTunes look for the data in the new location type in this command (on one line) and press <Enter>
    MkLink /J "C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup" "D:\Backup"
    If your target drive has a different letter or you already have a folder called "Backup" then edit "D:\Backup" accordingly in both commands.
    In some cases (perhaps depending on what builds of iTunes were installed in the past) it seems the folder is in the \Local\ branch of AppData rather than \Roaming\ in which case edit to suit.
    If you're still running Windows XP you can use Junction (cmd line tool) or NTFSLink (shell ext). In both cases you move the existing folder to a new location, create an empty folder where the old one used to be, then use the tools to get the operating system to link the two together and silently redirect any file operation on the old location through to the new one.
    Note that while this method works for iOS device backups it cannot be used to redirect sections of the media library.
    If your iTunes library is on the C:\ drive with the media folder held elsewhere then see also make a split library portable.

    I also have this problem. I have a debit card & I even verified every single piece of info with my bank on the phone, online, AND in writing...it's clearly an issue with itunes and I can't get anyone on the phone without a hefty charge to my account.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any Bonjour entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • TS1702 I can't update ios6.. What do I have to do?

    I downloaded the iOS 6.. And it was a long process, sadly it did suck, there are a lot of cool and diff things about it, but I can no longer send pictures, it keeps closing my apps out, I can't send group messages, I would be careful on the iOS 6.. Just informing.

  • IPad 1 Can't Update (Unkown Error (1))

    I've been trying to update my original iPad WiFi+3G. It will go through the process, installing the firmware, then verifying. I get the message that it can't update the device, with "unknown error (1)." It is presently stuck in restore mode.
    Things I have tried:
    Downloading the update directly from apple
    Rebooting my MacBook
    Repairing permissions on MacBook
    Differnet USB ports
    Differnt cablles
    DFU Mode
    I have an appointment with the Genius Bar Saturday morning (since they aren't taking any for tomorrow). Is there any other suggestions as to what I might try? What does this error mean?
    Have I bricked my iPad? If so, how can that be resolved with Apple?

    You can try this round about method. First, download the iOS 5.1 upgrade directly from the Apple servers;
    http://appldnld.apple.com/iOS5/041-1536.20120307.XvCtw/iPad1,1_5.1_9B176_Restore .ipsw
    Then, use these instructions to apply the upgrade to your iPad;
    iOS upgrade direct download
    After you have downloaded the update, attach your iPad to your computer, open iTunes and select your iPad in the devices list. Press & hold the Option key on a Mac or the Shift key on a Windows PC and click the Check for Update button. Browse to where you downloaded the update and Choose it. iTunes will handle the rest.

  • Can´t update ipad 2 on ios 5.1.1

    I can´t update my ipad, it always says that theres an unknown error, I also tried updating it using itunes but it doesn't work either, anyone can help?

    Sometimes ... And I stress .... Sometimes .... The unknown error seems to be an iTunes authorization issue - from what I have seen .... So try this.
    Go to Settings>Store >Apple ID, tap your ID and sign out. Then reboot the iPad, Reboot 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.
    Then go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and sign in again and see if you can update the iOS.

  • Installed successfully, but can't update.  Error "Serial Number is not for qualifying product"

    I installed Adobe Creative Suite Production Premium (CS5) on a new PC (Windows 8.1).  Installation was successful.  I uninstalled it on old PC and de-activated it.  My problem is that I can't Update.  Without Updates, I can't read newer Canon photos (so I can't use Bridge or PhotoShop).  In doing the install the first time, I put in an incorrect Adobe product number (I think from Elements 8.0, which I purchased years ago).  I have re-installed twice using the correct serial number, but same result:  I can't Update the programs and get a "Serial Number is not for qualifying product" error..  Please help.  Dave

    update manually,  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

  • Can't update ipad software

    I am trying to update ipad software to 4.3.5 but when i try and update i get a message saying that i need to connect to the internet - I am already connected! please help thanks

    I get the same problem. I find though that if I close my Kaspersky Internet Security suite, not just the firewall, then the update runs fine. I then turn the security suite back on afterwards.

  • IPad update failed, error 1602

    Does anyone know how to fix this?
    I connected iPad to windowx xp desktop with latest itunes and it asked to update the iPad. After the update failed, it keeps showing connect to itunes on iPad, yet the itunes doesn't seem to recognize it. Also as I connect iPad it shows in the bottom right *Apple Mobile Device (recovery mode)* and Found New Hardware window pops up. Does this mean I will lose all apps and saved files/books?

    Thanks but I'm not even able to recover at the moment.. I called in and did what the support suggested, uninstalling all 3 apple programs + itunes and quicktime and restarted, reinstalled itunes, restarted and plugged ipad back in. Result is still the same. iPad shows connect to itunes and my computer displays "Found New Hardware" window while itunes doesn't show any devices. So I'm guessing something with drivers?
    This is what it shows in device manager:

    I wish I didn't do the update at all
    You need to do the updates, because they slowly improve the performance of your iPad. And soon, iOS 4.0 is coming, which you will absolutely want, because it take the iPad to a whole new world.
    I'm not even close to being an expert on Windows, not having used it in about 10 years. But I've monitored this board for a while, so here are some suggestions:
    1. Try a different USB port, if you have one. Don't use a USB hub, try to connect directly to your computer.
    2. If possible, see if your cable is damaged. It happens.
    3. Before doing this, just make sure you have complete backup files from your most recent backup. I'm not sure where to find them, but as I recall, they should be located in your iTunes files. Then, completely reset and wipe your iPad, by going to Settings, General, Reset. Again, don't even consider this if you can't find your backup locations. You might want to search these discussions with "backup AND Windows AND location" to see where they're located.
    If none of this works, go to an Apple Genius. He can plug you into a Mac to see if the iPad has a problem.
    Again, it's not the update that caused the problem, it's a corrupted file or something. You'll fix it, so don't worry.

  • HT1222 Can't update my ipad2 cause of this. What do I do.

    This update contains improvements and bug fixes.  My iPad says this and it needs to be updated. What do I do

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    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).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.
