If you have any apps that were acquired with the old ID they will always be tied to that ID. Delete them and reacquire them with the new ID that you have in Settings > iTunes and App Store

Trying to update ipad but syncs all the iphone apps over?

Hi there trying to update my ipad but when syncing it syncs over all iphone apps how can i disable this to only update the ipad apps?

With the iPad connected and selected on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, you can use the Apps tab on the right-hand side to select which apps to sync to the iPad - there isn't a setting on that tab to say only sync iPad apps, but there is a tickbox (under the list of apps) for whether or not to automatically sync all new apps.

Trying to update ipad to iOS 5, but itunes is not letting me.

I synched up my ipad to itunes and backed things up. I went to the iPad tab and click the update button, but every time I do, it tells me that iTunes 10.3 is the current version. I'm not trying to update itunes, im trying to update my ipad! I don't know what to do!

What is the iPad tab? Where is it?
When the iPad is connected to your computer, while iTunes is running and after you have selected the iPad under Devices, you can click on Check for Update in the Summary Window on the right.
What are you doing exactly?

Greetings sansun911,
After reviewing your post, I have located an article that can help with Update and Restore errors. It contains a number of troubleshooting steps and helpful advice for the issue you are experiencing. Has the device been backed up via iCloud or a computer at any point?

Error 3194 when trying to update iPad 2 to iOS 5

I was just trying to update my iPad 2 to iOS 5, and after 'verifying the update with itunes' the updating process stopped. Something popped up that said an error (error 3194) had occurred.
I had previously jailbroken another device on that computer. But, I later restored the device and tried to remove all the jailbreaking software from my computer. Since then I have not had a problem updating my devices on iTunes, until now. I am guessing my previous attempt at jailbreaking is causing these problems. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks!

See this support document for error codes. Resolve iOS update and restore errors - Apple Support The 39 does not appear, but there is a 37 and 40, so I would believe it is close to that.
If you are having trouble updating, you need to check this support document for that. You may need to put the device into Recovery Mode.
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
It could also be the security software on the Windows PC. Another question, is the device jailbroken?

Error 39 when trying to update iPad will not turn on

I have an ipad 2 64. It had iOS 8.1. I tried to update to iOS 8.1.2 today. When I came back to my ipad it had a picture of an ipad cord pointing to a red circle with the word itunes in it. I have connected to itunes downloaded all updates then tried to restore my ipad I continually get error 39. I have tried this on 3 different windows cpus. I always get error 39. I am not even able to get my ipad to boot past the screen with the picture of cord and arrow. Thanks

Trying to update Ipad first generation, how to I do this?

I am trying to update my IPad 1st generation, which now has an operating system of 5.1.1 -- I can't seem to get the proper instruction from the store/apps only guides. Nothing is working. I want to be able to follow friends on Instagram. Please give me some info on how to update. All I have found is the guide, which I downloaded and sync to my IPad but nothing happens. I don't need the guide, I need the actual update. Thanks in advance!

That is as high as the original iPad can go. Don't waste your time trying to update further.

Trying to update iPad to ios6 but iPad reverting to old email account how do I update this

Trying to update to iOS 6 but iPad is still looking for old email and associated password. How do I update this?

Try to reset your device. This won't delete your data stored on the phone.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button
Press and hold on the Home button
Keep holding both buttons until the display turns off and back on with Apple logo on it.
Alternatively, you may go to Settings - General - Reset - Reset All Settings

Error trying to update ipad

I'm trying to update my Ipad 2 to the most current operating system. When connected to Wifi, I try going to Settings > General, but I do not have an option to update here. I've tried hooking it up to itunes on my PC and updating from there, but I get a message "The ipad update server could not be contacted". Getting frustrated as I can't update the software and I can't access many new apps as they require a higher version to work correctly.

Let's try the following document with that one.
iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
(If the "Automatically detect settings" checkbox is already checked, try unchecking and rechecking it and clicking OK.)

Trying to update ipad, stuck on verifying udate for 3 days

I tried to update my ipad 3 days ago, It is stuck on verify updates and will not let me get pass that message. Help!!!

Try a reset and see what happens.
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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
Your iPad may go into recovery mode which means that you will have to restore the device, so take a look at this in case you find yourself in that situation.
