The spinning circle just means that there is heavy activity on the WIFI network. It's usually nothing to worry about.

If you can't update, make sure the iPad is plugged in and connected to good WIFI while updating. If the phone takes hours to prepare the update, go to settings > General > software update and delete the iOS update to redownload it again.
