If your problem is about your iPad (your tablet), then you can't upgrade if it's an iPad 1. IOS 7 is compatible with the iPad Air, 4, 3, 2, mini and mini with retina display but NOT with the iPad 1.

install and you would be able to use the old version. Note: Once you have
installed ios7 there is no direct downgrade available as Apple had stopped
signing the previous versions.
