Update to iOS 9.2.1 requires at least 610 MB of free space on your iPad. Please change your synchronization of media options to make more available storage.

You have a question? Your free space currently on the iPad is indicated in the settings > general > available, the message you get is a generic message, for example if you've synced a lot of music or movies/TV programs to the iPad from iTunes on your computer, then change your sync options, deselect and then remove them from the iPad.

Or you can update via iTunes on your computer (in iTunes Summary tab), which require less space because it can use the computer (but that will download the iOS version whole, not only the update).

But however update you, first take a backup, copy purchases on your computer's iTunes library (file > devices > transfer purchases) and preferably grab your own copy of any important documents/photos

  • Update to iOS 10 will require Apple ID?

    Long story short, my Apple ID has been locked and I forgot all my security questions and there is no way to unlock. Last time I updated my iPhone software, before I could use my iPhone in the new update, I had to enter my Apple ID, due to his confinement, I had to contact Apple where find us the solution, and they managed to unlock my iPhone without the need of my enter my Apple ID. The only problem was that the process took about 4 weeks to 1 month so, technically, I could not use my iPhone for 1 month.

    Now I really want to update my iPhone to iOS 10 5s, but I'm afraid, if it asks me to enter my Apple ID again, and I really don't want to go through 4 weeks of my iPhone is locked due to the problem of my Apple ID.

    So, my question is, update to iOS 10 will require the Apple ID?

    Yes. It will be.

    Since the update to ios 9.3.5 on my mini ipad 2, I was not able to access my v.1, 1 mini mac running os 10.6.8 with itunes v.11.4, but was able to turn on my v.1 1 start of air macbook OS os10.7.5. NOW!, since the last update to ios 10.0.2, it does not work on one of my units. Is there something that I am missing that a new computer to run the ipad?

    This is because a device with iOS 10.x requires iTunes 12.5.1, which requires Windows 7 or higher, or OS X 12.9.5 or superior. Your OS X should be updated if possible. If not, then you can use the new devices and iOS with this Mac.

  • The use of the battery has increased since the update to ios 10. Also, why can not disable the voice command. It's the most boring on the new update.

    The use of the battery has increased since the update to ios 10. Also, why can not disable the voice command. It's the most boring on the new update.

    Depending on what you mean by "voice command", either:

    Settings / general / accessibility / VoiceOver / OFF, or

    Settings / Siri / OFF

    As for your use of the battery, you can check what app pulls most of its use in the settings / battery.  A new version of the app is sometimes problematic, not necessarily iOS or iPhone.  If you see a unusual % of use of a particular application, or force-to leave it removal/reinstalling it or remove it until an update comes.  If anything seems unusual, it might be a problematic installation of iOS, in which case, you could backup your iPhone and restore it:

  • Updated to iOS 10.0.2 then I can't change my photos now, a circle of download appear right in the middle and never download I do not know what?

    After the update to iOS 10.0.2, tried to change my time of sev photos and download circle appear in the middle of the screen and does not download. I tried to restart the photos and restart the phone with no luck at all. How would I fix this?

    Hi jorykamel,

    I understand that your photos are does not load when you tap them in the Photos app, since you upgraded to iOS 10.  You have iCloud library enabled?  Tap Settings > Photos & camera.  If you selected active iCloud photo library and Optimizing iPhone storage , so it can take a long time to access the original photos that are in the cloud.  The speed of your internet or cell connection will affect it as well.

    You are able to access iCloud from your computer?  See images here?  You can download the original images to edit if necessary.  If the problem persists, you may need to disable your iCloud photo library, and then turn it back on to re-establish the connection.

    Get help with your iCloud photo library

    Take care.

  • iPad will be not updated to iOS 10

    My iPad will not recognize iOS 10.  I've updated my two iPhones (6) easily and successfully.  However, when I click on "Check for Updates" on my iPad, I get a message that the 9.3.5 version is the "current version".  It does not produce an error message.  It's an iPad 3.  I never had problems before update.  Recently, I did a restore of backup because he refused to play the video on one of my apps.  Restoring corrects this problem, but did not affect my inability to update the iOS.  I tried to install wireless and wired with iTunes on two different computers.  He said still 9.3.5 is the latest version.  I stopped and restarted several times iPad.  No luck.  I tried on several different networks.  No luck.

    This is because the iPad 3rd generation don't is not supported in iOS 10 (http://www.apple.com/ios/ios-10/).  9.3.5 IOS is the latest version of iOS for your iPad.
