Ipad ios 6 wont download to ipad 2

ios 6.0.1 wont download on my two new ipad 2.
how can this be downloaded?

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).

    Hello there, BriceFromIA.
    First off, Thank You for your service to our Country!
    The error message you are recieving is addressed in the following knowledge Base article:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694#error9006
    Specifically:
    Errors related to third-party security software
    Error 2, 4 (or -4), 6, 1000, 9006
    Follow the steps to troubleshoot security software. Often, uninstalling third-party security software will resolve these errors.
    There may be third-party software that modifies your default packet size in Windows by inserting a TcpWindowSize entry into your registry. An incorrectly set default packet size can cause these errors. 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).
    Verify that access to ports 80 and 443 are allowed on your network.
    Verify that communication to albert.apple.com or phobos.apple.com isn't blocked by a firewall or other Internet security setting.
    Discard the .ipsw file, open iTunes and attempt to download the update again. See the steps under "Advanced steps > Rename, move, or delete the iOS software file (.ipsw)" below for file locations.
    Restore your device while connected to a different network.
    Restore using a different computer.

  • Ios 5 wont download, says 4.2 is current

    A downloaded the newest version of itunes (10.5) so i could update to ios 5 and when i clicked 'check for update' it said 4.2 is current. Anyone know how i can fix this and get it downloaded?
    I have a 3gs

    LichenThis I got mines to work!! You will need a micro USB. Unplug your apple tv power cord & connect to your computer via the USB. Opens up itunes. Press & hold your menu & play buttons on your apple remote for 7 seconds. It should start to restore, it takes 5 mins. Connect back up the power cord & hdmi & the mirror image function should appear on your ipad2!! It worked for me, good luck!

  • IOS 6 wont download

  • After i updated to IOS 8 my ipad wont download anything

    After updating my ipad to IOS 8 my ipad wont download anything like apps, music,ibooks,app updates,etc. I do have a strong wifi connection, but when i click download, the item gets stuck preparing to download, and doesnt even get to asking for my apple ID password. Help?

    I had the same problem, and I read on other apple blogs it is the WSJ app.  After deleting the app, everything worked for me, so I think it is right.
    Delete WSJ app.
    Close out all apps (swipe up).
    Shut down Ipad by pressing and holding restart button.
    wait 15 seconds.  Restart ipad.
    Everything should work
    With all the other people who have been having this problem and solved it by deleting the WSJ app, cant believe Apple hasn't blocked their app (it prevented all my podcasts, newsstand, and other apps from updating!!!)

    Reset your iPad and see if that helps.
    Reset 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.

    Hi Demo, thank you for your suggestions.
    I've tried updating in the following conditions:
    1. "Over The Air" at one location;
    2. On a Windows computer running the latest version of iTunes at the same location;
    3. On Mavericks (10.9.4) running the latest version of iTunes (11.4 (18)) at another location;
    4. On Mavericks, latest iTunes over a VPN with a server location in US;
    5. On Mavericks, using a 3G connection shared from an iPhone;
    6. On Yosemite developer preview with a previous version of iTunes at the same location.
    I got the same results in most cases except for an occasional error with code 9; I'll try again in other conditions.
    Interestingly enough, I've successfully updated my devices to iOS 7.1.2 and to iOS8 GM without any issues at the same location but, of course, no two conditions are exactly the same

  • When trying to download phoneshop onto my ipad it comes up with caution and wont download.

    It has previously been on the ipad but was deleted, tying to re download it but it says caution and then wont download. Please help.

    It's hard to see exactly how just turning voiceover on would have created a passcode, but regardless of that ... if you can't get it sorted so that you can enter whatever the code is, you're going to have to resort to Restoring the iPad from the computer it was last sync'ed to.

    Hello lithium08,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities! I understand that you are experiencing issues updating your iPhone wirelessly. Have you tried updating with a computer running iTunes instead?:
    Update the iOS software on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204204
    Update your device using iTunes
    If you can’t update wirelessly, or if you want to update with iTunes, follow these steps:
    1. Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer.
    2. Plug in your device to your computer.
    3. In iTunes, select your device.
    4. In the Summary pane, click Check for Update.
    5. Click Download and Update.
    If you don't have enough free space to update using iTunes, you'll need to delete content manually from your device.
    Find out what to do if you get other error messages while updating your device.

  • A movie i rented on itunes wont download now what do i do?

    a movie i rented from itunes wont download now what do i do?

    Hey Patiencepieart!
    While there is not enough information in the post about your circumstance to be able to say for sure, but here are some tips from the iTunes movie rental FAQ that may be helpful to you:
    iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1657
    Where can I watch my movie rental?
    You can watch your movie rental on your computer, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch (with iOS 3.1.3 or later), iPod classic, iPod nano (3rd, 4th, or 5th generation), or on your TV using your Apple TV. You can watch HD movie rentals on your computer, iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or with Apple TV.
    How many times can I view the movie?
    Once you start watching your movie, you can view the rented movie as many times as you wish within the 24-hour (or 48-hour) window.
    What happens to my rented movie if I don't watch it?
    If you don't watch your rented movie, it will expire in 30 days and disappear from your iTunes library. You will need to rent it again in order to watch it.
    Can I play my rental on more than one device?
    If you download a rented movie on your computer: You can transfer it to a device such as your Apple TV (1st generation), iPhone, iPad, or iPod if it’s a standard-definition film (movies in HD can only be watched on your computer, iPad, iPhone 4 or later, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV). Once you move the movie from your computer to a device, the movie will disappear from your computer's iTunes library. You can move the movie between devices as many times as you wish during the rental period, but the movie can only exist on one device at a time.
    If you download a rented movie on your iPhone 4 or later, iPad, iPod touch (4th generation or later), or Apple TV: It is not transferable to any other device or computer.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Braden
