Trying to update to ios7.4 on an iPad 3 on mobile sim

IPad tells me I need to be on wifi but I only have a mobile capacity using a vodafone mobile SIM card. Can I not upgrade in the Mobile mode

You cannot do an over the air update using a mobile connection, it is required to be connected to a wi-fi network. A lot of coffee shops and restaurants have free wi-fi these days if you have no wi-fi access from home.

Hope that helps!

How to unlock ipad2 puk code

Your iPad 2 must have 3G, with a sim card. For the sim you need the pin and after 3 misses you need the puk. The puk is on the letter or card that came with the original sim card. On that letter is the pin and puk. sometimes you have to scratch away the metal layer.

If you want to unlock an iPad, with the lock code on, and forgot your pass code you have to enter the correct password that belongs to your Apple ID. It will be partially on the screen. If you really messed up, setting up security, and lost unlock code and your Apple ID password. Only Apple can help. For that you have to take iPad, invoice, Prove of your identity (Passport) to the Apple store and hope they will unlock your iPad. With iOS7 Apple mede a very good security system. And while setting up the iPad and the security, you are warned several times what to do t make sure you and only you could enter the system.
Be aware if Apple does reset your iPad, all data now on the iPad will be lost.
