Multiple iPad update

I need to update 3 iPad, and I will only dowload 1 time the ipsw file.
How can be proceed easyly ?
Thank you for your help

It's a long time since I updated via iTunes, since iOS 5 I've been using the quicker direct download on my iPads as that only downloads the update and not the complete iOS, but I've always been under the impression that you need the specific download for the generation/model.
The links on that page are to Apple's servers, it should be where iTunes downloads them from. iPad 3 is listed on that page, towards the bottom of the iPad models.
For downloading an update, using a quicker network would be preferable so as to try and limit problems.
To the OP : doing the update directly on the iPad should also require a smaller download and therefore be quicker (but backup the iPad first, and copy purchases over to your computer's iTunes library via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases). If you have access to a wifi network elsewhere then that could be a quicker option than downloading and updating via your computer

  • Updating to iOS 8 via iTunes for multiple iPads

    Can I update multiple iPads to iOS 8 with one software download?
    All iPads are currently using the latest iteration of iOS 7.
    Thank you.

    Are all the iPads you mention the same model, including cellular vs. Wi-Fi only? If so, then yes you can update all of them with the same download.
    However, if they are different models, then you'll have to download the update file for each different model number.

  • Multiple iPad on one account with iCloud

    I would like to update some business iPad (all over the US) from our office (in CA). Is there a way to sync multiple iPads to one iCloud account? However, I would only like to update certain apps (Keynote, movies and some documents). Is there a way to push data to their devices without them pushing anything back to me.
    Thanks!

    iPods are sync'd to iTunes libraries (what you see on your computer), not iTunes accounts (which are used to purchase items).

    No. Anything purchased is always purchased by that same account and cannot be changed.
    He can copy these items to his computer and use them in his iTunes library.
    If you authorize his cmputer for your iTunes acoount (iTunes menu Store > Authorize computer)  when he plugs in his iPod, select it in iTunes and select File > Transfer purchases.

  • How can I manage multiple iPads for different students?

    Problem: I need to manage multiple iPads for my students with special needs. I need to download different apps to different iPads and I'm not sure how to keep their apps separate but still keep ultimate control of the units (i.e. lock them from loading anything on the apps that we at the school district haven't approved).
    I need to be the only one doing updates, loading software, etc., and don't want to keep using my own personal iTunes account...any suggestions?

    If the presenter is using a computer and everyone else has an iPad this is very easy and free. Just use http://join.me and on the iPad just download their free app

  • One non-VPP app on multiple iPads -- what's the current best practice?

    So I've been playing around with Apple Configurator and think it has the potential to be useful in deploying multiple iPads (in this case, 18) to a client.  I've been able to configure one iPad, take a backup of it, and then easily deploy that backup to 2 iPads.  I've also been able to automatically install free apps... to a point.
    In this particular test I set up an old version of Pandora I had on my Mac to be installed on my test iPads.  I intentionally chose an old version of the app to see what would happen when it needed an update, assuming that it would ask for the personal iTunes account I originally used to download it.  And sure enough, my assumption was vindicated -- after this iPad was prepared by Apple Configurator, I went to the App Store, attempted to update Pandora, and was prompted to enter my personal iTunes account password.
    I figure that the next step would be to create an iTunes account specifically for downloading apps intended for deployment to clients, and I'm guessing I should just create individual iTunes accounts for each client, download the required apps, and configure each device to use that iTunes account.  But is this viable?  Is there some limit to how many devices you can associate with one iTunes account?  Is this really the best they could do?

    This is a challenge.  On our enterprise owned non-shared devices we ask the user, if they need to install apps that are non VPP, to use a personal iTunes account.  Though the devices are owned by the enterprise, and have enterprise security policies on them, we allow the users to put personal music photo's etc on them, and back them up on home, not work computers, with iTunes.  I think most users of non shared devices feel they are "personal" devices and treat them as such.  We do put an IPCU profile on them, and do require encryption through Exchange Server policies.  Shared devices, where 1 device might be used by a number of employees in one day (say in an Emergency Department for registrars), we associate with a enterprise created iTunes account that has the same name as the Exchange account used to attach the Exchange security policy to the device.  We use restrictions on these devices to block app purchases, safari etc.  In the case of the shared device, free apps would be installed by IT using the enterprise created iTunes account.  We are in the process of getting an MDM which we expect to simplify all of this.  My opinion ( for what it's worth) is that Apple is  becoming much more enterprise aware and is moving toward making the scenarios described easier to deal with.  iOS devices started as consumer centric devices but are being adopted in large numbers now by business, BYOD or otherwise. 

  • Instant Syncing of Calendars Across Multiple Ipads

    I need to have instant sync between multiple ipads, using the same calendar.  What is the best way to do this, and is there a way to put a calendar slot on instant "hold" so that multiple people accessing the same calendar at once can avoid double booking?

    My original question pertaining to ensuring that the source code for the end user model classes remained consistent. You can't if the interface contains Java classes that are changed. You immediately have to deploy updated JAR files with the new code to all the clients that need it.
    The JAR idea is applicable, though not ideal, and I was hoping there was some other suggestion as to how to handle client-side objects.There is: XML messaging in the service interface instead of Java classes.

  • How can I use multiple ipad's on one account without sharing individuals personal email accounts?

    Is it possible to have multiple ipads on one account and share info, but also allow the individual users to have personal email that is not seen on the other ipad's? We have all ipads on same icloud account because we all need to see the same ical. It seems like that's the problem. If it IS related to icloud then if we have separate icloud accounts, how would we share the main ical otherwise? Sharing the ical is very important for this business so everyone can access the daily schedule. Of course each user still wants to have private email.
    Hope this wasn't too confusing!
    Thanks!
    Doreen

    you could set up the main icloud itunes acount for ical and not have in setup on the devices
    and share the calandar with the other itunes accounts on the devices
    or only have it on one device
    devices have the users indervidual itunes icloud setup
    they should be able to access the shared "main" itunes icloud ical account once it's shared

    if the devices are company owned you could go futher and setup find my iphone on the main itunes account
    and not on the user icloud accounts

  • Multiple Rows Update / Refresh Toplink Query when database trigger involved

    Hi everybody!
    I have two easy troubles for you; the platform is the same as the SRDemo Toplink version.
    1.     Multiple Rows Update: I want to update with mergeEntity method, multiple rows for an isolated table; that method receives a parameter that I try to bind with the iterator "dataProvider" but it only merges the first row, not all, any other combination returns an error.
    What I want to do is to have a form (like tabular forms in Apex) that lets me update multiple rows in a single page. ¿May anyone tell me how to do it?
    2.     Refresh Toplink Named Query: I have a list on a page with two columns. From another page, a button does an action that fires a database trigger that updates one of the columns on the list´s page. When I go back to the list, it is not updated; however, the CacheResults´s property is set to false on the iterator.
    Thanks in advance,
    Alejandro T

    I didn't use it (yet), but - you might take a look. You'll find a [url http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-plug-ins-182042.html]Timer plug-in on this page. It is a dynamic action which allows you to periodically fire other dynamic actions in the browser. For example use the timer to refresh a region every five minutes. You can perform any dynamic action you want using this infrastructure.So I was thinking: you might use it to run a dynamic action which would check whether something changed in that table (I suppose you'll know the way) (for example, a database trigger might set a flag in some table, timestamp or similar), and - if you find that something really changed - refresh the page.
    As I said, I never used it so that's pure theory. Someone else might know better, though.

  • Multiple ipads on one account

    I need to manage several iPads. Can I use one account for all in terms of downloading apps?

    Hi Guy3a,
    Legally, if different users are using your group of iPads you will need to use multiple Apple IDs to download apps, or sign up for Apple's Volume Purchase Plan (VPP). For multiple users like in schools or businesses you need to use VPP to purchase multiple licenses (can't share one Apple ID for 10 devices used by 10 students). http://www.apple.com/business/vpp/
    APP STORE PRODUCT USAGE RULES
    ( i )If you are an individual acting in your personal capacity, you may download and sync an App Store Product for personal, noncommercial use on any iOS Device you own or control.
    ( ii ) If you are a commercial enterprise or educational institution, you may download and sync an App Store Product for use by either (a) a single individual on one or more iOS Devices used by that individual that you own or control or (b) multiple individuals, on a single shared iOS Device you own or control. For example, a single employee may use an App Store Product on both the employee's iPhone and iPad, or multiple students may serially use an App Store Product on a single iPad located at a resource center or library. For the sake of clarity, each iOS Device used serially by multiple users requires a separate license.
    If you are an educational institution or business you will want to enroll in Apple's Volume Purchase Program (VPP) which allows a single Apple ID to purchase multiple licenses of an app. Most developers will offer a 50% discount on their app when 20 or more VPP licenses are purchased in a single transaction.
    There is a free OS X program called Apple Configurator that you can use to distribute the VPP codes to your fleet of iPads. Apple Configurator uses a single Apple ID to install apps on your iPads. Configurator will also allow you to install free apps on multiple iPads using a single enterprise Apple ID. See http://help.apple.com/configurator/mac/1.0/ for details.
    Hope this answers your question!

  • Trouble loading multiple iPads with one iTunes account

    I am trying to load the same exact information from ONE iTunes account to multiple iPads (4-6). I was able to sync the app and information I needed to ONE but when I try plugging any of the other iPads into my computer NOTHING happens. The computer doesn't recognize that I have plugged in the iPad nor does the iPad recognize it is plugged into the computer. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

    I am trying to use the same Apple ID for all of them. One has been synced and I am logged into the same Apple ID but the other 2 have been reset so they are like "new" iPads but my computer won't detect them.
