To continue, I don't know what happened then.
Any way, all appeared to be updating smoothly but v-e-r-y s-l-o-w -l-y and then all of a sudden up popped the very same window as shown on this post, it was asking me to connect to the computer........BUT I was already connected??????.
I waited for about 2 hours and nothing seemed to change. I eventual began the acts of a desperate man and started plugging in and pulling out of cable, pushing buttons and combination of buttons, like I said, about 10 hours of Waiting and button pushing before the iPad came good.
So my question is, how long should this update have taken, and why did the cable connect screen come up when I was already connected.
Sorry one more question, did I do the right thing by unplugging the USB cable and reconnecting it again?
Sorry about the 2part reply.
