Hey, why I can't update my iPad? It's saying me that my iPad is updated. But the version of system Is ios 10.3.3 🙄 I can't download any application from appstore etc.. Because it's saying that I need update my ios. And the circle is closed.. How to manually download and install update? On my computer in iTunes it's also says that my device ios is up to date. Eh. Serial number of my iPad dmpjl0b9f184.
iPad, iOS 10
If your iPad is currently running, or cannot be updated beyond iOS 10.3.3/4, then have an iPad4.
Update support for iPad4 ended September 2017. The final iOS releases for this model were iOS 10.3.3 (WiFi Only models) and iOS 10.3.4 (WiFi & Cellular). iPad4 cannot be updated to any later major version of iOS as it lacks the minimum hardware requirements needed to run more recent versions. The 32-bit platform upon which the iPad4 is based is obsolete.
App Developers have dropped all support for 32-bit devices and many for iOS versions preceding iOS11/12/13 - and have withdrawn older versions of their Apps from the Apple App Store. Withdrawal of Apps supporting older models of iPad is making their utility and usefulness significantly more limited. Once compatible versions Apps are withdrawn, you’ll not be able (re)download or (re)install them.
If Apps that you need to use now have higher minimum iOS-version requirements than your iPad is capable, your only option is to replace your iPad with newer model. Of current models, even the entry-level iPad9 supports current iPadOS 15 - and has hardware specifications and capabilities that vastly outperform an old iPad4.
Whether or not you are able to update any iPad to a newer version of iOS/iPadOS will be dictated by the iPad model - and the currently installed version of iOS. You can find this information here:
