My iPad does not have software update in settings, what can I do to download 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.

HT4623 my iphone 3g does not have software update..... Go to Settings General Software Update

my iphone 3g does not have software update..... Go to Settings > General > Software Update ...... NOT THERE

No. It doesn't. That is only present if you are already running iOS 5 or higher.
Since the iPhone 3G can NOT run anything higher than 4.2.1, you will never see it on that phone.

HT4623 My iPhone does not have "software update" in Settings under General

Hi,
I have an iPhone 4. It has the software it came with - iOS 4.3.3 I believe. I want to upgrade it to iOS6 but I'm not sure how. First, in my settings under general, there is no "upgrade software" section. Second, do I need to upgrade to iOS5 first before I upgrade the phone to iOS6? Also I ended my contract with AT&T months ago & they still have a "no sim" message on my ipad2 (successfully upgraded to IOS 6 after I upgraded using the macpro laptop computer I have to upgrade it to iOS5 it took forever to upgrade to 5 and only 20 minutes to upgrade to 6) anyway, back to my iPhone 4 - I use it on my wireless network at home. I do not use it as a phone and don't plan to. But I use it for so many other things around the house (stay at home mom) like calendars and email and a book. Can anyone help me with the questions I have about upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS6 without losing the newborn baby photos of my 7 month old?
Thank you!!

Only iOS 5 and later can be updated "over the air". If you want to upgrade your iOS you will need to do so using iTunes.

No.
Looks like yours could be a 2nd Gen... If so... iOS 4,2,1 is as far as it can go

How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Hi, my ipod does not have software update and on itunes it says chack for update but says ipod is up to date

Hi my ipod does not have software update on settings and on itunes it is up to date please give solutions

Thanks. I have been looking for this information for hours too. You answered my question in your list. I have a 2nd generation iPod Touch and last updated to iOS 4.2.1. Now many of the games are obsolete after being updated. I wish I hadn't updated them now, and I would still have play available. It's sad in this economy that I'll have to purchase a new iPod touch just to play a few simple games. I haven't even had it three years yet. That's what I get for not waiting a few months for the next generation. That's a nice little marketing tactic from Apple .
