I was updating my ipad software and it appears to be frozen?

If you think that update completed and the iPad froze afterward, try this.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If you see evidence on the screen indicating that the download and install is stuck, like the white progress bar has no moved for quite some time, you will probably need to restore using recovery mode.
You can read about it here.

Or you can follow these Recovery Mode Instructions
Disconnect the USB cable from the iPad, but leave the other end of the cable connected to your computer's USB port.
Turn off iPad: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red slider appears, then slide the slider. Wait for iPad to turn off.
If you cannot turn off iPad using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When the iPad turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons.
While pressing and holding the Home button, reconnect the USB cable to iPad. When you reconnect the USB cable, iPad should power on.
Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect to iTunes" screen. When this screen appears you can release the Home button.
If necessary, open iTunes. You should see the recovery mode alert that iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
Use iTunes to restore iPad.

Just loaded ios7 update onto ipad 2 and screen appears to be frozen on i tunes. how do I unfreeze

Just loaded recent update to IOS7 and the screen appears to be frozen with itunes logo and what appears to be the charger connection displayed. Is this normal and how do I get it unfrozen

The display is telling you to connect the device to itunes, some error occurred and you'll need to restore from itunes. If the device is really frozen, it can't connect to iTunes or do anything else, then reboot it...
press and hold the home and power buttons until the Apple icon is displayed, then let go.

Never fear, help is here jpeterson4! Have you attempted to plug your device into your home computer? Have you verified that the device is charged? Does anything appear on the device when you plug the device into a charger? Please keep us posted, thanks!

oh and the device is not being recognised by itunes now either.

The older version of Apple Software Update cannot be removed. Contact your technical support group. I was update the iTunes software and it gave me that message. I ended up without iTunes and not I can't download info for my iPad.

I tried to update my iTunes software for my iPad. I got the above message. iTunes did not install and now I no longer had iTunes at all. I can't update my iPad software without it.
I have tried Revo, CCleaner, COMODO, "find" in Regedit. Nothing finds anything related to Apple Software Update.

okay, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility and use it to remove the installation configuration information for your Apple Software Update:
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
reboot the PC after using CleanUp. any joy with the itunes install now?

Have you tried resetting your ipad?

I was updating my ipad, and then it said "fail to Restore" and then it wont come up under devices. what do i do?

as i was updating my ipad 2, it told me that it failed to restore, and then it wint come up under devices on itunes, the ipad also wont work, what can i do ?

This was copied from the Apple support site concerning unresponsive iDevices.
If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes
Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode.
More than likely, you will have to restore the device now. You may need to use recovery mode as mentioned in step 3.
Here is the link to the support article.

This is a copy of ONEof the keys in the registry I changed as told by Apple support today. I also have changed others as instructed by GEAR software support to manually delete GEAR drivers (that I had installed but couldn't delete some of the others they mentioned from Windows system 32. Then some bright spark at work told me I need the Gear drivers so I downloaded the software and installed again.
Sorry, just this minute went to insert image and it is giving me a message saying this sort of content is not allowed?.
The most recent key I altered is in: HKey _local _machine. System\class - 4D36E965-E325-11CEBFC1-08002BE10318. Upper Filter data: Upper filter NTIDrvr SiRem GEARAspiWDN.
The GEARsoftware info about manually deleting GEAR drive is from:

I updated my iPhone software and now it is saying that I need to connect it to iTunes. I no longer have my computer with my iTunes on it. What can I do? I really don't want to lose my data! I wouldn't have updated if I had known but there was no warning.

Restore loop (being prompted to restore again after a restore successfully completes): This issue is typically caused by out-of-date or incorrectly configured third-party security software. Please followTroubleshooting security software issues if USB troubleshooting does not resolve this issue.
Error 13 and 14: These errors are typically resolved by performing one or more of the steps listed below:
Perform USB isolation troubleshooting, including trying a different USB port directly on the computer. See the advanced steps below for USB troubleshooting.
Put a USB 2.0 hub between the device and the computer.
Try a different USB 30-pin dock-connector cable.
Eliminate third-party security software conflicts.
There may be third-party software installed that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting one or more TcpWindowSize entries into your registry. Your default packet size being set incorrectly can cause this error. Contact the manufacturer of the software that installed the packet-size modification for assistance. Or, follow this article by Microsoft: How to reset Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) to reset the packet size back to the default for Windows.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, bypassing any routers, hubs, or switches. You may need to restart your computer and modem to get online.
Try to restore from another known-good computer and network.
