"I had this problem as well, however I did find one way to get this to download on my iPhone. What I found that worked was to tap to retry the download and as it’s attempting to download it again I hit the pause button (I had to be quick). Once it was paused I hit the button again to resume the download and it successfully completed. I hope this helps some of you out until Apple fix this bug."
This was posted in an iPhone forum, but it applies to the iPad as well. Maybe this will work for you.

Click on the blue Internet Recovery in nbar's post. That is a link to what computers can run Internet Recovery.
Do a backup, preferable 2 separate ones on 2 drives. Boot to the Recovery Volume (command - R on a restart or hold down the option/alt key during a restart and select Recovery Volume). Run Disk Utility Verify/Repair and Repair Permissions until you get no errors. Reformat the drive using Disk Utility/Erase Mac OS Extended (Journaled), then click the Option button and select GUID. Then re-install the OS.

When you reboot, use Setup Assistant to restore your data.

An external hyperlink should handoff to Safari and leave iBooks.
If that's not happening, perhaps there is something misconfigured on your iPad? Have you manually confirmed those links work in Safari on your iPad?

Hello AdeShaw,
You may need to restart the computer, if you haven't done so already. Should that fail to resolve the issue, we've an article that can help resume the download.

I am trying to restore my new ipod touch and it is coming up as error, what am i doing wrong?

I am trying to restore my sons new ipod touch i am trying to restore it but it keeps coming up as error 1611, i have removed all security software and tried again but it has made no difference, any advice?

Error 1611: This error may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow the steps in this article. Alsoattempt to restore while connected with a known-good 30-pin Dock Connector cable, computer, and network to isolate this issue to the device. The MAC address being missing or the IMEI being the default value (00 499901 064000 0) can also confirm a hardware issue. Out-of-date or incorrectly configured proxy or security software, such as FoxyProxy, can cause error 1611. To troubleshoot third-party security software, follow these steps.

HT201210 trying to restore my phone and I get an -1 error - what is this?

I have not been ab;e to use my iphone since I updated the software. Tried restoring it a million and one times but get an error message -1. Can anyone help?

Error 1 or -1
This may indicate a hardware issue with your device. Follow Troubleshooting security software issues, and restore your device on a different known-good computer. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.
Has the firmware been modified before you updated the iOS? If yes, this error could be a result of a jailbreak.

I am having trouble downloading apps onto my iPad2. When I try a message appears " not enough local storage this can be managed in settings.". I ave tried by deleting unused apps, but the same message appears. How can I resolve this ? Help needed pleas.

Try rebooting the iPad as well. You might be getting an inaccurate reading and rebooting might clear that up.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
