Updating depends on the model...


Updating an iPad:

Do so by using a compatible device, and reliable connection.


I. Start Here: If your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch won’t Update - Apple Support


II. Verify Compatibility:

  1. Go to: Settings
  2. Tap: General
  3. Tap: About
  4. View: the model shown

Then, see if the device is shown here:

III. If compatible...
