If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - 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 to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

I don't have the "software update" in general setting .. How can I update my iPad ?

Software updates to iOS can only be done from the iPad when you have iOS 5. You will need to update through iTunes to get the latest version, after which you will be able to update directly from the iPad if you wish.

HT4623 Why I can't update my iPad 2 to the iOS 7

Why I can't update my iPad 2 to the iOS 7

Are you trying to update OTA (over the air) on the iPad itself? To do so, you need to have iOS 5.x or above installed. The OTA update feature was added with this version. If you are running below iOS 5.x, you need to use your PC to update the iPad to the newest iOS 7.
Check your iOS version: Settings>General>About
The number displayed under "Version" is your current iOS version.

HT4623 Can I update my 1st generation iPad with the new iOS software update?

I have the first generation iPad, and It seems I am no longer able to update iOS. My applications seem to quit suddenly and my iPad seems to almost be un-usable. Safari seems to be the application that hardly ever works. Is there a solution?

You can't update your iPad past iOS 5.1.1
Many iPad 1 owners reported slow downs with iOS 5.
Under the Settings app, General category under About, how much storage capacity does your iPad have left?
You could try a hard restart or reset by holding down the sleep/on-off button and home button simultaneously.
Once the screen goes black, wait about two seconds, then let both buttons go.
See if this changes anything.
Good Luck!

HT4623 I can't update my iPad iso 6.0.1 , it said error .. I don't know how I can get my new update

I can't update my iPad for iso 6.0.1,, it said error all the time . How I can get my new update

Is this an over-the-air update, or did you update while being connected to a computer?
iOS 8.2 and above take up around 2 GB more space, which requires that you have more space on your device. If you tried the over-the-air update (updating directly form the iPad in Settings>General>Update) this issue could be resolved by updating through a computer with iTunes installed on it. Updating through a computer requires less space on the device, because it pulls the SW out before replacing it, while over-the-air updates install the new SW before removing the old one.
If this doesn't work, or you in general want to know how you can manage your storage better, try managing storage through Settings>Usage>Storage>Manage storage. This function allows you to view what is taking up storage, and it allows you to more easily remove data you do not wish to keep on the device.
Good luck.
