I've been attempting to install the iOS 7.1.1 update on my iPad since last evening but no go. It worked on my iPhone and iPod Touch. Are other people running into this problem, and is there a solution?
iPad 2 Wi-Fi, iOS 7.1
How are you trying to update? iTunes or WiFi? If you are using iTunes, temporarily disable your firewall and antivirus software and them try again. If you were using WiFi, try using iTunes.
BTW.... An explanation of exactly what happens would you try to update would not be a bad idea.

Thanks, Demo!
After "Verifying update....," I get an error message: "Unable to Install Update. An error occurred installing iOS 7.1.1."
I usually update via WiFi but will try iTunes.
Thanks, again, for your time!
Before you try using iTunes, try closing all of the apps on the iPad and reset the device. then try using the WiFi udpate again. WiFi is so much faster if you can get it to work.
In order to close apps in iOS 7, you have to drag the app up from the multitasking display. Double tap the home button and you will see apps lined up going left to right across the screen. Swipe to get to the app that you want to close and then swipe "up" on the app preview thumbnail to close it.
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.
Try the WiFi update one more time.
The update (via iTunes) is in progress and, at this point, appears to be going through without problems. Thank you, once again.
Hi, I'm trying to update my iPad and rather than just staying "Install" it says "Download and Install." Each time I try, I get an errror message saying that the update failed. I tried your suggestion of reseting the ipad and closing all apps. Any other suggestions?
Try Demo's suggestion to me that I use iTunes for the download/install process instead of trying to do it over WiFi, if that's what you've been using. It did the trick for me.
my iPad will not install iOS 7.1.1
