I first tried to update the firmware and it gave me an unknown error and it couldn't update. I then left it and tried to just use it as is. At this point all non-apple apps (apps that didn't come with the iPad) kick me out right way, but the apple apps work.
So I have two problems, my apps don't work and my iPad won't update. What do I do?
iPad, iOS 4.2
To open purchased app try this:
Download and launch any free app to unfreeze any frozen apps.
Turn off antivirus and firewall before you update.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

My iPad won't update and it keeps kicking me out of apps!
