The iPad Does Not Update Correctly: How to Fix it

There is always a lot of expectation when we perform a software installation on our iPad. Either because it comes with solutions to errors or because news comes we always want to have an installation as fast as possible . But unfortunately there can always be problems throughout the update process, which have a solution as we tell you in this article.

If the download takes a long time

Sometimes we can find that the download of the corresponding update for iPad is quite slow . Obviously we must check that our connection is going well through a speed test. But it is true that sometimes software updates that weigh a few megabytes and take a long time to download can end up frustrating.

This can basically happen because Apple‘s servers are overcrowded. This is quite common when we are downloading moments after it has been activated. In these cases, you simply have to wait for the servers to stop being saturated, and if the WiFi network persists. If it is possible, we can also try to install with our mobile data, if it has a low weight.

If the update cannot be verified

Another of the most common problems that we can find is that when we click on ‘Install’, a message will appear saying ‘impossible to verify the update’ . This message is accompanied by a text that indicates that we are not connected to the Internet and that it is false because we are in a WiFi or with mobile data. In this situation we must try a different WiFi network or simply perform the installation through a Mac or PC through iTunes. This can also be applied to when the message ‘Unable to check for update’ appears.

If it has been a while since we are trying to update our device and we still get these error messages, we must remove the update . To do so, simply follow these steps:

  1. On iPad go to Settings and go to General> iPad Storage.
  2. In the list of apps that come out, look for the update.
  3. Click on it and delete it.

In this way we can re-download the update and check if this problem no longer exists. If with the removal of the update we do not have results, we will have to go to a Mac or PC to perform the update.

If the update is too long

When we are performing the update we can see on the screen the company icon appears as well as a progress bar that is progressing. Sometimes this wait can be very long and the bar does not seem to be moving . We must bear in mind that the installation progress can be tremendously slow depending on the weight of the update and the number of files that we have on our iPhone. It is true that we can miss some indicator that warns us if the update has not been blocked.

It is recommended in these cases to have the iPad connected to the power and leave it as long as necessary. If we see that it has been blocked we can try to turn it off to force it to start again and if none of this works, enter it in DFU mode .
