My ipad 2 wont work after IOS 6.1 update

Hi,
I have tried installing the IOS6.1 update after it asking my for the last few days to install it, now All i get is the itunes and USB screen rendering the ipad completely useless!
I have tried connecting it to Itunes via my laptop where is asks me to restore the iapd due to errors etc, everytime (I have tried at least 6 times) I tried to down load the Ipad update/restore file which is approx 780MBs it gets up to 386.8mb and 10 mins remaining where it appears to jam for several minutes before speeding up to the finish and then saying download failed/interumpted. I dont know what else to try as I have the latest version of itunes installed.
Will a trip to the itunes shop help? can they restore the ipad? it isnt in any kind of warranty now, how much will they sting me for? Im travelling to newcastle (our nearsest apple store for over 100 miles) tomorow anyway so may pop in.
thanks in advance.
Mike

Try temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus software before you try to update again.
If you want to try recovery mode which is what Apple recommends if you are unable to update or restore your iPad, go here.

If you want to manually download the update go here.

Ipad does not work after IOS 7.2 update

After update to IOS 7.2 for my latest generation Ipad (with retina display) the screen repeatedly changes betwen the regular view of my home screen with ipad app icons over to the Apple update screen (black and white screen with the Apple logo in the middle. This occurs back and forth every few seconds. No update is actually taking place and under Genera it says my software is up to date.
What to do?

Try this - 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. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)

Ipad apps wont work after downloading update 5.1.1

My I pad apps wont work after I downloaded OS update 5.1.1
I have tried restoring, but it doesn't solve the problem.

Hi
I had the same problem since I updated, the iPad shows "No Sim" I have taken it out, put it back in after cleaning it! All the usual possible solutions that everyone else has tried? So I have not been able to connect for over a week now and I intended to pop into the Apple geek guys to let them have a look, but was scared that they might suggest it would have to be sent away!!! What would I do?. So last night I was fiddling around with the IPad and thought I would try something, AND GUESS WHAT! It works!!!!
This is what I had done
1. Take the SIM out of the IPad
2. Leaving the SIM out, turn the Ipad off using the Home and power button at the same time, do this 4 times
3. Now insert the SIM back in it then found my SIM
I cannot confirm the is the ultimate cure, but it worked for me and I have tried all the other possible solutions, it's worth a try?

Can anyone help me out? My Iphone 4S's mic wont work after ios 6 upgrade

Can anyone help me out? My Iphone 4S's mic wont work when Im making a call and I can hear them, but when I turn on the speaker option, they can hear me. It wont work with Siri either. Can anyone give me any suggestions? I've already tried rebooting the phone. I tried doing a restore from backup but should i do a full restore? Thanks

Restore your device as NEW. Before you add any apps to it (other than the ones that come with iOS 6), try out the phone. If it still doesn't work, you'll need to go to Apple for phone replacement.

Exchange email will not work after IOS 5.1 update. Anyone else having same problem. Its been three days now I cannot get mail.

Exchange Email not working on Iphone 4S is anyone else having the same problem and is there a fix for this?

@ w3nitro
I'm having the same issues, except only one of my Exchange accounts took a dive after upgrading to iOS 5.1. My Gmail account (set up as Exchange) works flawlessly but my native Exchange account (work e-mail) stopped working after the update.
Post update to 5.1: (work Exchange account) I could view my inbox and view individuals emails in the inbox, but I was unable to send any emails. Mail started asking for my password after the update (for the affected Exchange account) but once entered, it failed to verify.
I completley removed the Exchange account and rentered all the account settings but again, failure to verify any information. I was hoping my password might have changed but it did not. Also, maybe the IT guy at the office (not very bright) changed some settings but the only difference is the new iOS update.
And while playing with the iPhone trying to make it work again, I noticed something really weird. Old emails (2-3 weeks) from multiple email accounts to include the inop Exchange account started showing up again on the pull down notification menu. I would clear these out of the notificaion menu but they always kept reapearing; very strange.

HT4623 Reminders won't work after iOS 6.1 update on iPhone 5?

I updated to the new iOS 6.1 update last night. Went to make a reminder through siri and i get to the point were it asks to confim. When I press confirm Siri tells me that she can't do it. I try to set a reminder manually and the app does not give me the option to add a reminder manually. Everything worked fine before the update when my iPhone 5 had the 6.0 iOS?
Any ideas on what the problem coulb be? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

The problem is more than likely being cause by corruption that occured during the iOS install or in the backup that was used to restore the phone after the update.
Standard troubleshooting is:
Re-boot the phone
Restore the phone from your backup
Restore the phone as a new device.
One of the 3 should fix the problem.

Safari doesn't work after iOS 8.3 update

After the iOS 8.3 update, Safari is completely useless. I am unable to open any URLs or search. Nothing happens when I type and return in the search bar. Sometimes even the go button doesn't highlight/activate.
I tried removing cache and disabling iCloud, but nothing worked.
Does anyone have a solution?

Replying to my own message.   I actually looked at the device logs again there is a bunch of mobile safari issues.   Most of which apple would have to symbolicate against their source to figure out the actual bug.
Looks like some deadlock issues, which explains what I am seeing.

IPhone 5S home button stopped working after iOS 8.3 update

My home button stopped working after I updated it to the iOS 8.3. My finger print can still unlock the phone but the home button won't work.

What you are describing sounds more like a hardware issue than a software issue. Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local apple retail store and have the device evaluated.

Safari no longer works after iOS 8.2 update.

I installed the iOS 8.2 update and Safari will not work at all. If I tap a bookmark, it just freezes. If I manually enter a search term or a url it doesn't respond at all. I read about some other (not the same) issues with Safari and the common advice was to restore from an iCloud backup, which I have done, to no avail. Anyone else having the same issue? Anyone else able to RESOLVE the same issue, and if so, HOW??

Do this and it should be back up and running.
1. Backup your iphone to itunes.
2. Then unplug the iphone from the computer and turn off your iphone
3. Hold the home button (while the iphone is off) and plug the iphone back to the computer
4. Restore the iphone using itunes via recovery mode (this will install a fresh set of firmware on your iphone)
5. Put your files back on your iphone and that will work

My kindle and google apps on my iPad are not working after most recent software update

Touch ID doesn't work after iOS 7.1 Update

After installing iOS 7.1 Touch ID stopped working. When I put my finger on the sensor nothing happens.
I already tried rebooting and switching Touch ID on and off. None of that seemed to work. Is there anyone else experiencing similar problems?
Update: Right now I'm trying to set up a new fingerbrint but it doesnt even start scanning when I put my finger on. It just doesnt do anything. I have a feeling that the sensor might be broken...

Same problem, after upgrading to 7.1 touch ID stopped working and will not let me enter new fingers, acts like I am not touching the sensor.
Additional info:
The company I work for requires passwords to be on to access mail, when I am at work I will try deleting that mail account and turning off password requirements. It is an Microsoft Exchange mail server.
Additional info2:
In Xcode there are no messages in the console for the iPhone that are related. Unrelated messages do pop up confirming the log is active.
Is there a setting I can make to turn on more logging?

Ipad won't sync after iOS 7.03 update: Other is huge and over capacity

When iOS7 was updated last week (7.0.3) the update went fine on my iphone 5s but was interupted on my iPad.
Now, when I connect the iPad via cable to my desktop Mac, it will not sync. It connects to the iPad just fine, but the "changes" cannot be applied because it shows that the amount of data to be transfered to the 64GB iPad is "Over Capactiy by 31.37GB." A total of 45.2GB of "Other" is indicated on the summary page in iTunes in a yellow band.
(A sync from the same ID, same iTunes library with the same settings, with the iPhone 5S of the same capacity (64GB) has NO trouble completing properly. It shows only 1.62 GB of "Other."
I have tried restoring the iPad from a previous back up. No good.
I have tried restoring the iPad to a new, factory issued condition, set it up as if it were a new iPad and tried to sync. No good.
I have changed the sync setting so that NO video or audio tracks are to be synced (freeing enough space for all of the bloated, "Other" category.) Stiill ends up stuck perpetually in Syncing iPad - Step 4 of 4 - "Waiting for changes to be applied"
Any suggestions?
SERIOUSLY frustrated.

I am having the exact same issue except with the iPhone 4s.
"Other" shows 34.88GB
I tried everything you did, short of factory reset, since I read elsewhere that won't work.
iOS 7.0.3
iPhone 4s 64GB
Help!
