HT4972 why i cant update my ipad into ios7

i cant update my ipad2 to ios 7

Are you using iTunes to update your iPad? ID you are running iOS. 4.3, you must use iTunes on a computer according to the instructions in the kb article that led you to this support site.
If you are using iTunes and you are not having any success, try disabling your firewall and antivirus software when you try again. And please, by all means, provide some details. Don't be shy or keep us guessing. Just stating that you can't update your iPad doesn't help is to help you.

    Firstly I updated my ipad into ios7 and after watching the video by Apple, iWork, pages and numbers are free for download after updating iOS 7. How can I download iWork pages and number for free? Please help me.

    stevejobsfan is correct; iwork for ios is free only for new purchases of new ios devices. A good work around (if you have wifi connectivity) is going to the icloud website on your ipad, and working on your document.
    A word of caution (the real reason I am responding to your post). If you do a lot of 'formatting' of a document on iwork for mac, and then save it in icloud; you will probably loose most of the formatting you have done (this will be true if you oppen the document in iwork for ios; also) It happened to me, and I did not duplicate the document before saving it to icloud; I lost at least an hours worth of work.

  • HT4972 Why i cant update my iOS to iOS 6

    Why i cant update my iOS to iOS 6

    What have you tried?  Connect your iPad to the computer with
    which you normally sync, open iTunes, click button to check
    for updates and iTunes should handle the rest. If using a Windows
    computer, you may need to temporarily disable your anti-virus and
    firewall for the update to succeed. If you have any problem, please
    post back with the exact wording of any error message and someone
    will answer. Once you have updated to iOS 6, future updates can
    be done over the air without having to connect to a computer (altho'
    that way will still work).

    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).

  • HT201210 why i cant update my ipad?

    I am having problem uodating my ipad2 ?

    Well, you haven't told us any symptoms ...
    So with that, here's what you should do:
    Update iTunes on your computer to the current version (11.0.1).
    Plug your iPad into your computer.  When iTunes is open, go to the iPad's summary page and after the iPad synchs, click "Check for Updates".

  • Why I cant update my iPad3 to iOS 6? Its always : "an error occured downloading iOS 6.0.1"

    Why I cant update my iPad3 to ios6? It always says: "an error occured downloading iOS 6.0.1"
    Is this bcoz of wifi connection or what? Ty!

    Did you try updating with the iPad directly?
    You need Wi-Fi connection and power supply from the wall socket.
    Or through the computer iTunes?
    If computer iTunes, make sure your anti-virus and firewall are off before you try.

    I had the same issue on my iPhone5 with iOS 7.0.2 and I solved by doing the following
    1) Settings / iTunes&iStore
    2) Disable everything
    3) Tap on the Apple ID and sign out
    4) Turn Off and On again
    5) Open App Store
    6) Update Manually (like you did before iOS7)
    7) Re-activate again automatic updates
