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 to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

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.

" It doesn't even have the "software update" In my general settings!"
Becasue this is only a feature in IOS 5. If you do not have ios 5, then you cannot updat from the ipod.
Open itunes, connect ipod. It will prompt you to update.

HT4623 I don't have the software update option in my settings. How can I update my phone?

I don't have the software update option in my settings. How can I update my phone so I can download apps?

Are you referring to updating the iOS? Software update for the phone has nothing to do with downloading apps. The only time the OTA software update for the phone iOS was after iOS 5. If you are looking to update applications, then go to the App store and select updates.

HT4623 I do not have the software update on my phone,My iphone is currently on version 4 , I wish to upgrade to version 6

How can I download version 6 ? My iphone is currently on version 4 and I do not have the software update icon on my phone

IOS 4 will not update over the air (WiFi etc). You need to plug it to iTunes. After that you can do future updates over the air.

No. You don't. You can only update over the air if you're already running iOS 5 or higher.
If you actually read the article you linked from, you'll see a section on how to update using iTunes.

Plug it into itunes with the USB cable. The over the air update feature is a new feature, not part of iOS4, so you do not have it to use until you update.
