HT5192 Unable to install ios 5.1.1, while is already downloaded on my ipad

I already downloaded the update of ios 5.1.1 OTA, using wifi on my ipad but when it is going to install, message occured "unable to install the update, error occured when it is going to install", can somebody help? The updated can't remove and can't be installed. It's stuck on my ipad 1

You can try to plug it into iTunes and try to do the update that way.  The download might of became corrupted or it can't verify the integrity of the update.  You could also try to hard reset it by pressing both the home and power button for about 10 seconds.  If all else fails, wipe the iPad back to factory defaults and try the update again.  Not ideal but sometimes its the only way out.

  • HT5192 Can't install ios 5.1 on my ipod touch 4th gen

    Unable to install IOS 5.1 update on my ipod touch 4G. On error occurred while installing. I'm using my ipod only to update it.. How can i install IOS 5.1 update on my ipod touch 4G without encountering any problem?

    Check out the other ios 5.1 installation error posts, using search terms like "can't install ios 5.1." I found one that helped me. There are several fixes that appear to work, such as changing your DNS #'s on your device, rebooting your device and trying again, and so on. Personally, I have the same device as you and I restarted the device. Then I installed 5.1 from the device. It didn't work from my Mac previously, but it worked from the device. I did have to download it first on the Mac, but once downloaded you have the choice to install from your device as well (if you have home sharing turned on between your Mac and iPod). I had a "1" under updates on my iPod (which was for the firmware update). I just chose to update from the iPod and it worked.
    If you don't know how to do a reboot of your iPod, just hold the power and home buttons in until you see the Apple logo. Then you can let go and wait till it reboots.
    Hope this helps.

    If you "reset" the iPad, (restored the iOS) that should have installed the new software onto the device. But I am never sure what any user means when they use the term reset.
    Some people use the term to mean restart. Some mean reset the system using the home and sleep buttons, some people mean that they restored the iOS  software. How did you "reset" your iPad?
    WHen you try to update, do you disable your firewall and antivirus software of using iTunes? Are you using iTunes? Are you using WiFi to update OTA?

  • Unable to install ios 8.2

    Unable to install ios 8.2

    Try to force close the settings app and then reset your iPad. After it restarts, go back to the Software Upadet setting and see if it will resume the process.
    In order to close the Settings apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
    Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen after which time you can release the buttons and let the iPad start up.

  • Unable to install iOS 7.1.1

    Hi guys,
    About 12 hours ago my phone lost signal, has been 'searching' ever since. On O2 in the UK.
    Spoke to network provider, done all the usual resets.
    Then a few hours later realised ios7.1.1 had downloaded automatically. Won't install (message says unable to install)
    Spoke to apple, they suggested a backup then erase all content and settings.
    Tried this but it wouldn't erase due to an iCloud error.
    Tried to erase iCloud account but it won't delete
    Totally stuck, have no laptop iTunes to connect to
    Any help would be great
    Thanks Chris

  • HT4623 How can i install ios if i can't find software update in my ipad ?

    Dear Sir,
    How can i install ios if i can't find software update in my ipad ? No software appear after i go to General = ??
    Thanks.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.0.1. For the iPad Mini the iOS is 6.0.2. 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.

  • Since I installed IOS 8.0.2 (was ok on IOS7),on my iPad 4 "photos" don't scroll properly, it freezes and staggers, it's really slow to scroll to the bottom of the page (in Album, Events From My IMac) it's very annoying!

    I'm not sure, but I know it's not recommended to upgrade to iOS 8 on anything older than an iPhone 5. I only lost my music playlists and music that was on my phone, but that music is also on my iTunes, not the playlists though, and I don't want to go through ALL my iTunes library to fix it either... But it seems I don't have a choice right now.
    Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to iCloud Drive, keep iCloud till OS X Yosemite comes out, if your computer is a Mac. I also just noticed that all my documents on my phone are gone from Pages, BUT if I go on the iCloud website they are still there. Hopefully it will all work itself out when I can update my macbook pro to OS X Yosemite.
    If you backed up your phone and all your purchases off your iPhone prior to trying to upgrade you should be fine... But I'm not even remotely sure.

    Make sure you are using either OpenDNS or Google Public DNS. It may in fact resolve it, but there could be other factors or causes.

  • Unable to install IOS 5.1.1

    I can't download ios 5.1.1 "unable to install update"

    After many attempts to download through iTunes, I tried the direct method via Wi-Fi and it worked!  First, reset the iPhone (hold the power and Home buttoms until the screen goes black, then keep holding until the Apple logo appears).  Second, dismiss all other applications  (hit Home twice, then press and hold any icon at the bottom of the screen until they blink and display red "-" signs; then hold each "-" sign until the app icon vanishes).  Then go to Settings -> General -> Software Update. It took me about 5-6 minutes via Wi-Fi.
    For what it's worth, I'm using an iPhone 3GS and had 5.1 installed prior to the 5.1.1 update.  My iTunes is on a Mac G4 running OS 10.5.8.  I don't know why the iTunes method didn't work, but even if it had worked, it would have taken half an hour or more to download the file.

  • Space issues and unable to install iOS 7.1

    I am not able to download apps or use the camera/video recorder. I've checked my settings for usage and I am only using 1.1 GB's. my phone has 5GB and I am also using iCloud. I also, am unable to install the iOS 7.1 update, or transfer data (pics/video) to my pc. Please help!

    Your iCloud account has 5GB.
    Your iPhone storage itself is either 8, 16, 32, or 64GB depending on which you purchased.    This is the space you are running low on.
    Go to Settings - General - Usage.    This will tell you where all of your storage is being used.
    In meantime, you can always update your iOS using iTunes which won't require you to clear out any space.

  • Unable to install iOS 8.3 on my iPad Air

    Trying to install iOS 8.3 on my iPad and it doesn't upgrade. Went to settings, then General, then clicked on software update. Answered the terms & conditions to "agree" and Install Now. Nothing happens, it just goes back to the app icons. Any Ideas?

    Close all apps on your iPad, reset the iPad, and then try again.
    In order to close apps, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
