HT4539 How to update iso 6 on iPad 2
Can an IPad 2 be updated to iOS 6? If so, how do you do it?
It can, and as your tagline says that you are on iOS 4.3.1 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes - when you've updated you will get a Settings > General > Software Update option appear on the iPad allowing future updates to be done directly on the iPad.
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
Updating to iOS 5+ : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
iOS 6 will remove the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

How to update iso for iPad 1?
A first generation iPad can only be upgraded to iOS 5.1.1 and no higher.
If you are still running iOS 4, you cannot upgrade over the air, as that feature was only introduced with iOS 5. You would have to plug the iPad into your computer and use iTunes to upgrade, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623 for instructions of how to do this. -

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).
