    I keep doing this. I even unplugged like you said "

    Second, once you accept the recovery and update option and it starts downloading the necessary data for the update, unplug the ipad from the computer. This will force itunes to finish downloading all the data without dumping anything onto the ipad yet. Also, shut down the ipad just like you did in the first step.

     

    Third, itunes will tell you the recovery and update failed, say ok." However, it just told me that it was corrupt again.  So it is a never ending circle

    I then called Apple and since my iPad is 17 days out of warranty they want me to pay $249 for a new one.  This is crazy. 

    I am so annoyed!!
