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?

Connect it to your computer and update it through iTunes.

I have never updated ios on my iPhone 4. I am currently running ios 4. I tried to update yesterday to ios 6 but many hours into the backup I got an error message saying that continuing would cause all of my phone contents to be lost. What should I do?

Why, if it told you you have insufficient space on your computer, would it suggest making more space available on your phone?
At a guess, you have insufficient space on your phone. Installing software will typically require more space than the final size of the software, perhaps even twice or three times as much, for the installation process. You can easily dump some videos or music temporarily, and then synch them back in afterwards.

I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? Help!

I have the iPhone 4. I recently switched from PC to IMac. I am trying to sync my iPhone, but iTunes will not let me add or remove anything. Do I need to change a setting since I changed computers? I try to add songs from my music into my phone section and it will not go... Plus the playlists on my phone are not updated on my iTunes phone on my computer. Its like it never updated. What am I doing wrong??

Iphone will sync with one computer at a time.
When you sync to another it will delete the current content.
Make sure you have copied everything from your old computer to your new one first.

My iphone screen has gone completely blank I have tried holding down both the sleep and home buttons and nothing has happened and I have tried to connect it to my laptop but itunes will not recognise, what can I do ?

have you tried charging the device ?
if so and it still does not work you can try a Forced Recovery..
by holding the HOME button down and plugging it into your computer at the same time..

When you sort playlists, you either ask for sorting on a certain criterion (ie, alphabetically by name), or you choose yourself. You can't mix both. To automatically sort, you click on the field/column you want (eg, Name, Date Added, etc). To manually sort, click on the heading for the very first column (the numbered column). Now you can drag tracks around as desired.

Could be the update servers are overloaded. Keep trying.

Tried to update iPad to iOS 4.3 and it crashed during the update

Now all the screen on the iPad shows is to connect to iTunes. It has the little usb cord pointing to iTunes. Since then I have not been able to get iTunes to recognize it. I have tried restarting my laptop, reinstalling iTunes, and even checked to make sure the iPad showed up under the device manager. Right now it is basically useless. I am running Windows 7 if that matters. Help

Im having the SAME ISSuE
Same setup.. win7 64bit
iPad is useless right now....
when updating... it said there was an error..
and now the same connect to iTunes screen!
HELP! i use this all day at work... im an idiot for thinking i should have updated.

HT4623 Error 1645 while trying to update iPad to IOS 5?

I can't upgrade to IOS 5. Anyone know what Error 1645 means during the restore process?

It worked for me after I disabled the Passcode, turned off WiFi and Cell networks, closed all apps (hit the home button twice and then hold on an app to bring up the close button). After all that power down and power up. Worked for me then.
However it is probably more related to as others have said the sheer volume of hits.

TS1702 I have 6 app updates waiting to be updated. Everytime I try to update them, the little bar appeara for about a second then the screen goes back to the update again. I tried deleteing 2 apps and reloading them but it will not let me install them aga

I have read alot of suggestions on how to fix it..I have deleted a few of the apps and tried reinstalling them but that won't work either. I have completely turned off the Ipad and it still asks me to update them...It does allow me to install a new app however.

The problem corrected itself,....i tried to delete the post but could not do it.

Trying to update to 6.0.5 but it won't let me unless I use appstore and appstore only has later updates not compatible with my OS. Help?

I recently recorded something on my friends laptop using his Garageband. But then I was trying to transfer it to my computer and it says I need to update to 6.0.5 to be able to open the file. However when I try and update it it gives me this message "The version of GarageBand installed on this Mac must be updated through the Mac App Store. Check the Mac App Store to see if an update is available." So I went to App Store to update it but the only garageband related thing I could find there was the 10.0.2 update which was too big an update and wouldn't run with my OS anyway. How do I get the 6.0.5 update? Whould I delete Garageband and reinstall using the 6.0.5? Also my OS is 10.7.5 if that helps.

Whould I delete Garageband and reinstall using the 6.0.5? Also my OS is 10.7.5 if that helps.
That will not work. The GarageBand 6.0.5 updater from the Apple Support page is not a full installer. You will need an installer disk for GarageBand '11, for example the boxed iLife '11 disk to install a GarageBand '11 version, that can be updated with that 6.0.5 updater.
So I went to App Store to update it but the only garageband related thing I could find there was the 10.0.2 update
The AppStore should not be showing you the 10.0.2 udpdate, if your system is not compatible. Or have you upgraded to MacOS 10.9.2?
