TS3274 iPad mini won't update to iOS 7.0.4

I just bought an iPad Mini today and every time I try to update the OS to 7.0.4, it gives me an error message about halfway through that says "An error occured downloading iOS 7.0.4"
How do I fix this?

My iPad mini won't update my apps. I have closed all open apps, done multiple resets but I show 24 updates and when I hit the update, the screen is blank.

My iPad mini won't update my apps. I have closed all open apps and done multiple resets. I hit update and the screen is blank, even though the bubble shows 14 to update.

If you are getting the blank app update screen, many people are having this problem over the last couple of days.
According to Fly150 in another discussion, this will work.
If you want to update the Apps while waiting for Apple to fix Updates:
1. Go to App Store
2. Select Purchased
3. Select All
4. Scroll down to find the Apps showing update
5. Select update on the Apps
This should update the Apps and get rid of the update count in App Store. Apple needs to fix this. It is a workaround only until then.

IPad 1 won't update to ios 5

My Mum has been given an iPad 1 by a relative who has bought an iPad Mini as a replacement.
She uses a PC so I have installed iTunes onto it and am trying to update the iPad to ios 5 (as a number of apps I'm trying to install for her just won't load without ios 5). However, every time I try to update it I get an error message saying "the disk is full. Removing files and emptying the Recycle Bin will free up additional space". I've emptied the recycle bin but it still won't work and I'm pretty sure the disk is not full as she doesn't use it for much other than surfing the net.
Can anyone help?

If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. 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).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

If you have not already done so, you need to reset the iPad to the factory settings. http://ipad.about.com/od/iPad_Guide/ss/How-To-Wipe-Your-iPad-And-Erase-Data.htm This will erase all apps and files. Any apps that were downloaded by the previous owner using their Apple ID can't be updated using your ID.
Look at this link.

My wife's iPad 2 won't update to IOS 5 on her iMac, my iPad 2 updated fine on my Dell PC- what gives?

My wife has a new (less than 6 months old) big beautiful iMac (of which I am extremely jealous-but that has no bearing on the conversation at hand) but every time she tries to update her iPad 2 to iOS 5 on iTunes she gets the error code 3259 at the very end of the 40+ minute download. I own a Dell (over 1 1/2 years old) running windows 7 and I updated my iPad 2 to iOS 5 when it was first released with no problems. I checked the message boards and they said that they were most likely experiencing an overload of people trying to download off the servers and that was causing the download issues. So I waited and tried again....and again....and again....and, well you get the idea.
I can not fathom how my PC updated fine but my wife's iMac (running the latest update of Lion and yes she updated iTunes and did the firewall settings correctly) can't/won't update it to save her life. Does anyone have any ideas????
Thanks,

Hello jaideniv,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
First I would recommend this article named Can't connect to the iTunes Store found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1368. It will get you started with troubleshooting iTunes Store connection issues on the computer and the phone.
If needed there is a more advanced article named iTunes: Advanced iTunes Store troubleshooting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297 that I would next recommend.
Take care,
Sterling

My iPad mini won't upgraded to iOs 8.2

Hi there,
I have an iPad mini with retina display for almost a year. Since last month, i couldn't upgrade my iOs on my iPad to the latest one. I have tried to upgrade it through iTunes but it always say there is something wrong with your connection. My wifi at home always perfect and i also have enough space (2,8gb) to upgrade into iOs 8.2 which required 2gb space of memory.
Is there anyone can advise me what should i do?
Many thanks in advance!

Hi Brett L,
Thank you for your reply, really appreciated and can't wait to give it a try. Unfortunately I'm having problem in updating my software on my MacBook Air.
I have tried to update it on mac terminal but it kept loading and never get to the end. Apple store also does the same, keep loading but never allow me to actually update my software.
Do you have any idea how I can solve this problem?
My thanks in advance!

IPad 2 won't update to iOS 5.0.1

Today I got a WiFi 3G 64GB white iPad 2 running on AT&T. When I got it it was running iOS 4.3.5. When I plugged it into my MacBook Pro, It gave me an error message saying that "The iPad "Alex's iPad 2" is not eligble for the requested build". I've tried rebooting, DFU, re install ing iTunes. I tried mostly anything and can't get it to work. Could it be that because its Christmas time people are tryiing to all update to iOS 5 at once?

Had the same issue myself. Look at the following link. Just done it myself and it works a treat. Be prepared to wait about 30 mins for the full update to take effect.

IPad Mini froze while updating to iOs 8.1

My wife's 32 gig iPad Mini was still on iOS 6 (6.1.6) It had automatically downloaded 8.1 and we tried to install it. The progress bar showed it was about 2 - 3 mm from the end when it froze. I tried attaching it to her computer while holding down the home button to put it into recovery mode and received an error message that its locked with a passcode that has to be unlocked on the iPad before it will recognise it. Obviously this can't happen as its frozen.
Is there any way of getting around this? (There is about 20 gig of spare space on the device.)

I'll give you something else for the near future ... it's doing a clean system install and it's a good way to get rid of any possible corrupted files in your system. This can also be for troubleshooting a particularly difficult problem.
Follow this procedure for a Troubleshooting Methodology ... basically reset to factory default condition -BUT- be sure to do the following methodically and also to follow the part with Apple Support!
First you want to make sure you have several backups of your data and done with a couple of "different" sources. Be sure to understand what data is backed up and what is NOT on iCloud Backup and iTunes Backup. Use a variety of methods for backup ... you might check into Dropbox, in addition to your Apple options.
Then turn off your desktop anti-virus software when using iTunes for this reset to factory default. After you do that reset, then leave your iPad in its factory default state and see how it operates then. If you encounter any problems in that factory default state, then take it to Apple Support, and let them know that you have just reset it to that state with iTunes and have not put any of your data back on and it is operating in this fashion (whatever the problem is) in that pristine state. Make sure you keep that trouble ticket number, because if it has to be escalated through Apple Support, you're going to find all communications tied in with that number. If the lower level help isn't able to help you, then escalate it to a higher level to examine the problem. Keep at it with that trouble ticket number until Apple Support arrives at a solution to that problem. Be methodical and keep at it.
On the other hand, if everything is okay with the factory default condition, then restore your backup. Some people have discovered that the problem resides in the apps or something in the restored backup. If that's the case, then it's going to be trying and difficult to find out which developer's app is causing you the problem. And ... it's true ... that a developer not following Apple's instructions and guidelines for his app can CAUSE YOU TROUBLE. This kind of thing does happen from developers, especially when a new system upgrade comes out, because some developers ignore what Apple tells them about changes coming, and what they do BREAKS SOMETHING.
This is a troubleshooting methodology that you are going through. See it through to the end.

IPod Touch 4G and iPad 2 won't update to iOS 5?

Hey, I have an iPod Touch 4G and iPad 2 that are both running. 4.3.5 and I am trying to update to iOS 5. I downloaded it for both devices and clicked update, it backs up the device, extracts software, and then say verifying restore with Apple.

TS3274 ipad mini won't boot up

Ipad 2 won't update to ios 5 no matter what I try

I've literally tried everything, I've deleted my itunes twice to make sure I had itunes 10.5. Then everytime I go a try and updat it will take almost 4 hrs and once at 3/4 of the download it will say I have a network issue and go back to zero. I just bought this Ipad in august and I have no clue what to do please help!

If you are getting a network timeout error then try temporarily turning off your firewall and antivirus software until the download has completed. If that doesn't work then you could try downloading it via a browser : https://discussions.apple.com/message/16436025#16436025

My ipad 3 won't update to iOS 6.2. I get error message saying I'm not connected to the Internet even though Internet is working for everything else.

Does anyone know why this is happening or what I can do?

If the update is not working from the iPad over wireless have you tried to update the ipad via iTunes. Here are the steps for both ways of updating your iPad http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
