My IPad Pro is using os15.3.1 it has about 11gb available storage Available updates will download but not install I get a failure notice after it “prepares the update “
This has occurred for the last 3 available updates through 15,7
Your iPad may NOT have sufficient space to install the latest iPadOS 15 updates.
If you have access to a full computer, like a Mac or Windows PC, try either using the Finder on a Mac that has the newest macOS Catalina, or later macOS, installed OR with an older Mac with an older Mac OS, download and install the latest iTunes version ( or latest iTunes for Windows PC ), make sure the Mac or Windows PC is connected to the Internet, connect your iPad by the USB charge cable to the computer and let the iTunes application upgrade/update that iPad model, using the iTunes Software Update feature, to its current, maximum OS of iPadOS 15.7.
Make sure your iPad is, at least, charged to 50% or greater to attempt this.
Also, make sure your iPad has, at least, between 6-8 GBs of free internal data storage space for downloading and installing a major iOS/iPadOS upgrade.
Make sure your desktop/laptop computer has plenty of internal drive storage space, also.
Also, make sure to do a backup of your iPad's data, prior to upgrading/updating.
Backup to Apple iCloud and/or a full Mac or Windows PC using the same iTunes app OR, if a newer Mac running macOS Catalina, or later, making a backup using the macOS Finder app.
If NO access to a Mac or Windows computer, you will have to seek help from a good friend or family member, with a full Mac or Windows PC, to help you out
OR
Search online to locate and call contact your nearest, “local” Apple Store location to try/attempt to make an appointment to get your Apple iPad upgraded/updated to its latest iPadOS 15 version.
OR, alternatively, use the “Get Support” link, at the upper right hand corner of every Apple Support Community Webpage to attempt to schedule an appointment with your nearest Apple Store location.
Apple Store employees will be glad to help/assist you.
Best of Luck to You!
