Hi,
I have an iPad Pro 10.5. I am trying to update to iPadOS 17.5.1. Whenever I try to instal the update I get an error message. I have tried to remove the update to reinstall. However, every time I click on the storage in the Settings app, the app crashes. I have tried a hard reset, forced closed the app and turned the iPad off and on, but the problem remains. Any ideas?
Many thanks
iPad 2, iOS 9
Begin with a forced-restart of your iPad - as this will often clear an isolated software issue:
Force restart iPad (models with the Home button)
Press and hold the top button and the Home button at the same time. When the Apple logo appears, release both buttons.
If the problem persists after performing the restart, it may be necessary to reset your iPad settings. While this reset will not cause any loss of data, as a precaution, it is always wise to ensure that you have a current iCloud or iTunes backup before performing the reset:

When you are happy to proceed, you can perform the reset from iPad settings:
Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPad > Reset > Reset All Settings
If the problem still doesn’t clear, the next step is to reset the iPad to factory settings:

Otherwise, you would be best advised to seek assistance directly from Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page. Alternatively and perhaps easier, you can initiate and manage your support cases using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed on your iPad, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

You might also visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to assist:
