  • How to download ios 6 to my ipad 2

    hi, i have no idea how to update my ipad 2 with ios 6?

    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.

  • HT1414 How to download iOS 4.3?

    I tried to update my iphone 3GS but turn out the iOS was downgrade from 4.3 to 4.2 and many apps are not longer able to be reinstalled, any solution? Can not find the download in iTune?

    Looks like your Phone is a 3G not a 3Gs...
    iOS 4.2.1 is as high as a 3G can go...

    Then restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up    
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

    You posted in the OS X 10.3 forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa  I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

    To update
    Connect the iPod to your computer and update via iTunes
    iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
    A 2G to 4.2.1. Requires iTunes version 10.X. That requires a Mac with OSX 10.5.8 or later. With 1OSX 10.4.11 you can only go to iTunes 9.X which gets you as high as iOS 4.1
    Note the 2G can only go as high as iOS 4.2.1

  • How do I download IOS 7 to my IPad?

    I want to download IOS 7 for my IPad. I would like to do this through my computer so I do not have to remove my apps. However, when I go into updates in my iTunes, the only selection I get is IOS 8. I do not want to use IOS 8 until it is fixed. So the question is... How do I download IOS 7 to my IPad through my computer?

    You can't.
    There is no longer iOS 7 available and no longer anyway to obtain or download it.
    The current iOS version is iOS 8.0.2.
    I would NOT advise updating your iPad at this time.
    iOS 8, IMO, is still plenty buggy and NOT ready for older iPad 2 and 3 devices, as yet.
    DO NOT UPDATE!
    I would suggest waiting it out until, at least iOS 8.1 is, eventually, released.

    How to download iOS 4.3.3 8J2 ?

    You don't. This thread is over 1 year old. If you need to upgrade, connect your phone to iTunes and check for updates. If you have iOS 5, you can go into settings - general - software update.

  • HT5052 how to download ios 5.0.1 instead of ios 5.1?

    how to download ios 5.0.1 instead of ios 5.1?

    If you are past 5.1, there's a good chance you can't go back.
    If you're on 5.0 or before, you will need to place your phone in DFU mode, get a manual copy of iOS 5.0.1 for your phone (correct model), and install it by holding down Shift (Windows) or Option (Mac) when restoring your phone in iTunes. It will prompt you for the specified .ipsw file.

  • How do I download iOS 5.0 on iPad 1?

    How can I download iOS 5.0 for iPad 1?  When I try to do so, plugging a USB chord into the iPad and my Mac laptop, I do not see the iPad symbol in the Mac's lefthand column (which was the supposed step needed to find and click on an update link).  Without iOs 5.0 I can't update certain apps that require it, e.g., Pages and iWriter.  Can anyone help?

    Your iPad is not being recognized in iTunes. Try restarting the Mac and the iPad and then connect again and see if the iPad is recognized.
    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.
    If still no luck, start here.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1591
    You must be running iTunes 10.5 on the Mac as well in order to update the iPad to iOS 5. If you haven't updated to 10.5, download and install iTunes 10.5 and that may help with the iPad being recognized as well.
