Why can't I update my iPad iso 4.2 version? I go to setting and it does not have it like it should. Why does apple have to make things so freaking hard! Help!
iPad, iOS 4.2
As it's running an iOS version prior to 5.0, it shouldn't and won't have a Software Update option and needs to be updated from iTunes on a computer.

I tried that but it keeps telling me my IPad is up to date? But it is still 4.2 why does it keep doing this? It tells me to wipe it clean then update it but it just keeps giving me 4.2 back? Help please I'm pulling my hair out whats left of it!
If you have an original iPad 1, the latest version of iOS it can run is iOS 5. So you should be able to update no problem.
Update iTunes to the latest version (11.0.2). Then simply plug your iPad into the computer and open iTunes. Click the iPad either in the sidebar or the top navigation bar. Then attempt to update the software. If it doesn't work, please post the exact error message.
Note that it would be wise to first ensure you back up the iPad.
