HT5192 Need help download iOS 5.1 for ipad

Can't find software update in general settings what do I need to do

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.

HT5192 unable to download ios 5.0 for ipad using windows 7 and itunes 10.1

I am unable to upgrade to ios 5.0 for my ipad. I am using windows 7 and my itunes is updated 10.1 it keeps timimg out and i get error message 3259. I already tried diacbling antivirus software

You've tried turning off all firewall and antivirus software ? If that doesn't work then you could try downloading the 5.1.1 update via a browser :
original iPad
iPad 2 wifi
iPad 2 gsm/sim
iPad 2 CDMA
iPad 2 new
iPad 3 wifi
iPad 3 gsm
iPad 3 CDMA
When it's finished downloading, in your computer's iTunes press and hold the shift key on Windows (command key on Mac) when clicking the Check For Updates button which should let you navigate to the downloaded file.

Do I need to download any antivirus Program for IPad 2, which program is better?

But you could have viruses that may not effect an iOS device or even a Mac, but could easily be unwittingly passed on to PC users. So, if you send and receive a lot of email with attachments,and many of your receivers are PC users, you may consider whether you want to risk forwarding them a virus, etc.

Download iOS 4.2 for iPad without iTunes

Have been struggling with Network Connection Timeout and couldn't download IOS 4.2 before I found this fix.
I have now (finally) successfully downloaded IOS 4.2 for iPad.
You can download the iOS 4.2 update directly from appldnld.apple.com/iPad/ in your favorite download manager without iTunes.
I'm using Firefox (Win-7) and the download manager add-on.
As the download is stopped numerous times without reason
(I suspect server overload), you'll have to reclick on the download manager box numerous times to complete the download.
Once the iPad1,14.2.1_8C148Restore.ipsw file is downloaded, connect the iPad to the computer, launch iTunes and press Shift + Update button to upgrade your iPad iOS.
Go to the folder where you saved the download and open it.
Voila.

A quick question to others here, when i first got my iPad iTunes was saying that my iPad was up to date and it gave a date when it would next automatically check as three days in the future - November 21st. Now it is saying the 28th. Is it normal for it to go to a week like that or is that another item to feed the rumor mill?
By default, after any check for updates the next check is scheduled for 1 week later. You can verify this by clicking the "check for updates" button. The next time you come back to the page for that device, you'll see that the next check date is a week out.

HT5503 How do you download IOS 6.0 for IPAD

I would like to download IOS 6.0 for my IPad 2. How can I do that?

If you are using iOS 4 (or earlier) there is no Software Update in Settings. That feature was first added in iOS 5.
To update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

Need help with formula in Numbers for iPad 2

I have a spreadsheet with a formula such as b2 x c2 very simple. However, if the formula cells (b2 and 2) are blank then the destination cell contains a zero. How can I make my destination cell b blank while the formula cells are blank? I got thsvresponse from a person working with Mac os x, if this helps...
I can't seem to make this work in my formula bar on ipad2!
=if(isblank(<source cell>), "", <What ever your formula is>)
Thanks for any suggestions!
iPad 2

Your friend was close, but forgot one thing. If you want it to be blank if either cell is MT, then you need an OR as well o test if either one or the other is blank...
=IF(OR(ISBLANK(a1),ISBLANK(b1)),"",a1xb1)
The isblank can also be represetned by ="" in many cases, usually accompanied with a trim to make sure there are no spaces were entered...
=IF(OR(TRIM(a1)="",TRIM(b1)="")),"",a1xb1)

How do I download iOS 5.0 on iPad 1?

How can I download iOS 5.0 for iPad 1? When I try to do so, plugging a USB chord into the iPad and my Mac laptop, I do not see the iPad symbol in the Mac's lefthand column (which was the supposed step needed to find and click on an update link). Without iOs 5.0 I can't update certain apps that require it, e.g., Pages and iWriter. Can anyone help?

Your iPad is not being recognized in iTunes. Try restarting the Mac and the iPad and then connect again and see if the iPad is recognized.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
If still no luck, start here.

You must be running iTunes 10.5 on the Mac as well in order to update the iPad to iOS 5. If you haven't updated to 10.5, download and install iTunes 10.5 and that may help with the iPad being recognized as well.

HT2052 Need another link to download iOS 3.1 for my ipod touch 1st generation!

I can't find anywhere to purchase and download iOS 3.1 for my ipod touch 1st generation (iOS 2.2.1 at the moment), despite clicking through the link provided in this article. It just leads me to a page to download iTunes to my computer which I already have! Can anyone shed some light? Thanks!

Are you using the latest version of iTunes (10.6.3)? What happens if you try to open the link using a different web browser such as Firefox or Chrome?

I have an iphone 4S model with IOS 7.1.2. Do I need to download IOS v8.0?

Craig,
Your analogy is excellent! Perfectly captures the opinion I have heard from many. The reason that I have encouraged you to update is because really I, personally, have never experienced an issue with an update, and neither has my signifiant other. Call us lucky! I will not lie to you and say that that means that all updates are going to flawless -- far from it. Many people, as you described, find themselves in the exact situation described by your analogy, and they take to the internet to describe and outline these problems. It is unfortunate that iOS 8 has been such a buggy release for so many, and disheartening that Apple has not yet found a solution for some of these major bugs.
I do ask you to remember though that most of what you find when looking for opinions on iOS 8 will be people having problems with their device -- those whose update went through perfectly have no reason to question it, and thus it can make it seem like everyone writing on iOS 8 is having a problem. There is most definitely a large amount of people with problems after the update, but most likely an equally large amount of people who did not have problems and simply didn't post about it.
My significant other is not a heavy user. She uses her phone an average amount, but she most definitely does not rely on it as much as you have outlined above. I do not want to deceive you into thinking that just because she had no problems that means that you will not encounter any either. To answer your question, she updated about a week after each release of iOS 8 (iOS 8.1, iOS 8.1.2, etc.)
I also do not want you to think that I am a completely neutral party either. I am a fan of Apple, I will admit to that, but trust that I try to speak from as unbiased a position as I possibly can.
As far as your concerns with Apple go, I hear you. Many people would agree with you. Apple markets itself with the concept of flawlessly functioning devices, and that means that for some, when issues do occur, it is even more than just a bug because they bought the device on the promise of it flawlessly functioning. Yes, the functioning factor is part of the reason behind the higher prices of Apple products, but remember you also get a one year hardware warranty and over the phone assistance, access to the Apple Store and Genius Bar (both of which have excellent customer service, a fact that is widely agreed upon), as well as features such as iCloud storage. Widespread bugs like the ones that have occurred with iOS 8 are uncharacteristic of Apple, but in the end they will make mistakes, it is how they fix them that characterizes the company.
From everything that you have stated, here is my solution for you: If your phone works right now, it works. It will continue to work if you do not update, that is guaranteed. What is not guaranteed is that if you update, the phone will function even better. Both you and I are aware that iOS 8 has caused just as many issues as it has resolved -- updating here is a gamble, if you rely on your phone as much as I am thinking you do, it is probably better to take the safer route that guarantees the phone will work. Keep in mind, iOS 8.2 is right around the corner. More bug fixes may be introduced, and that may be a better time to update.
You bring up some excellent points. In the end, this decision is all up to you. I'm just a guy on the internet with some strong opinions!
Nick.
