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. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • How do I upgrade iPad iOS

    How do u upgrade iPad operating system to iOS 6
    I am using ios4 now. When I go to systems then to general, there is no button for software update

    The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you are on iOS 4 as your tagline suggests then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
    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
    Your iPad will be updated to iOS 6.0.1 (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple), so you will lose the built-in YouTube app and the Maps app will change.

    You don't. The iOS level in your profile is as far as an iPad can go.

  • My iPad2 won't sync with iTunes.  Upgraded iPad to iOS 6, iTunes is latest version (10.7).  Cable connection.  What am I missing?

    My iPad2 won't sync with iTunes.  Upgraded iPad to iOS 6, iTunes is latest version (10.7).  Cable connection.  What am I missing?

    I'm having the same, identical problem. It goes into step 2 (backing up process) then it goes back to step one (finding iPad) and it starts over again. It will just keep doing that for 3 or 4 times until it will say "iPad not found". This is so frustrating.

  • HT4972 how come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube or pinerest app? it keeps giving me a message to use iOS5

    How come i can not use iOS 6 on my ipad 3 to get the youtube and pinerest app? i keep getting a message to update to iOS5 if i must use iOS5 how do i update to that one because it just took me 4 hours to figure out how to update to iOS6

    We have read that any apps that use the google map app (removed by ios6) will not work.  We have lost a great camping app for this reason, and have heard that some weather apps are not working either.  The company line we've been given is it's up to the app developer to rewrite their apps.  ***** doesn't it.

  • HT4972 How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5?

    How do I upgrade my iPOD Touch from iOS 4.2.1 to 5?  I've reset it, erased it, but still won't install iOS5.

    You most likely have a 2G iPod touch which cannot go beyond iOS 4.2.1.  If it is an 8gb or 16 gb iPod without a camera, it is a 2G iPod.

  • Upgrading iPad 2 iOS from 4.3.5 to 6?

    I have someone that wants to upgrade to iOS 6, but they are still on 4.3.5 and never upgraded to 5. Before I help them with this, is this even possible? Or will I have to upgrade to 5 first and then 6? I dont want to risk erasing any of their data.
    Also, I dont want to delete anything from syncing. If I they have authorized itunes then none of the data will be erased right?
