First try resetting your iPad and then try updating again.


Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.


If it still will not work, try updating using iTunes. But before you do that, disable your firewall and your antivirus software, then try the update again.
