Why won't my iPad update

My iPad won't update!!! The newest version and the one I'm trying to get is 7.1.2. The Install now button is there but when I click it it has me enter my passcode then I agree to terms of service (which I think are just stupid because no one reads it) and then it says it's verifying the update. Now it loads for like 30 seconds then stops and a thing pops up saying "software update itnot available at this time. Try again later."
IPad 4 generation
16gb
IOS is 7.1.1
NEVER JAILBROKE IT

Hello Animalman526,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand you're having issues with downloading the iOS 7.1.2 update over the air. Rather than doing this update OTA, please attempt to update your iPad through iTunes by following the article below:
Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

Take care,

Why won't my ipad update to 5.0

My ipad will not update to 5.0. I have an older (late 2008) macbook that has been updated to lion 10.7.3 and my itunes is up to date as well (10.5.3) but when I plug my ipad into the computer it tells me that my ipad is not "eligible" to be updated. I am not a computer "nerd" though I know my way around with a little help. I have made sure there is no USB ports taken except with the ipad, I have checked that I have no security software running (I have none) and I have attempted to follow the steps at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3297. THis actually wouldn't let me because I supposedly don't input the correct password though I am the only admin on the computer and I tried everthing possible. I have about 10 apps on my ipad that won't update due to the non-5.0 format of my ipad. SO - any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

Okay - I finally repaired my ipad/macbook...
This is what had to be done.

Followed the instructions and BAM - It was upgraded in about 6 hours. Haha
Took forever to walk through the steps but really is on 5.1 now.
Thanks for all your help!!!

Why won't my iPad update to 7.1 after I paid for more storage as prompted

I have an iPhone 5 and an iPad. I just paid $20 TWICE to gain more icloud storage to allow the 7.1 update on my iPad. Neither purchase worked and I'm out $40!?

Then you are out of luck. You can't update if you are unwilling or unable to free up space on your iPad.

Do the Update using iTunes on your Computer.

Why won't my apps update on my ipad? I have 7 updates waiting to go and when I click on them they all say they are installing but they have never completed their installation? Please help

Try resetting ...
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
You won't lose any data as a result of a reset.

If you are still having problems with your iPad, it is still under AppleCare.
Bring it into an Apple Store to have it diagnosed and repaired under warranty.

Why won't my emails update between my devices?

why won't my emails update between my devices?

That's not the issue though. I have all that already set up. It's just for my hotmail account. I have another account that works fine. It's just annoying to have to see all the same stupid emails on every single device, and then in my hotmail account as well. Aren't they supposed to be syncing with one another?

HT1386 why won't my ipad charge from my computer - my iphone does! and where has my facetime and contacts icons gone?

Why won't my ipad charge from my computer when my iphone does? also where have my facetime and contacts icons gone?

A computer USB port does not provide enough power to charge and run the iPad at the same time but it will charge it if the iPad is turned off. It will take about four times as long to charge than with the iPad charger.
The Contacts icon may be inside a folder, such as Utilities.
There is no Facetime icon. Start a Facetime link from a contact.

Why won't my ipad 1 download an entire purchased tv episode?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Try deleting the problematic file (electing to remove original file if/when prompted) and then re-downloading the file from the iTunes store.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option from the Quick Links section in the top right corner of the iTunes homepage in your iTunes application on your computer.
You can re-download content purchased from the iTunes store (availability varies depending on location) using the purchased option at the bottom of the screen of the iTunes app (or video app) on your iOS device.
If the problem re-occurs, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History using your computer.

Looks like you have a 3G not a 3Gs...
Connect to iTunes on the computer you usually Sync with and “ Check for Updates “...
If an Update Appears Install it... if not... you are up to date for your particular Device...
iPhone 3G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
