iPad Deleting UNINSTALLED iOS 6 From iPad 2

You can only get rid of it if you are jailbroken. And if it is deleted, iOS will just redownload it again.

What CAN'T YOU DO without jailbroken it. Pathetic. But as much as I am tempted I will still never jailbroken.

Hi - I've just jailbroken my iphone4 and using ifunbox to browse the file system - does anyone know where the ios6 installation files are so I can delete them - I want to free up the space and stick with 5.1.1.

Thanks!

I've received a number of notices on my iPad 2 Wi-Fi that iOS 6 was ready for my device. I have ignored it for a few days but today I tapped on the "Get More Information" tab. I got more information... and a clarification that iOS 6 is already downloaded to my iPad.

I have NOT tapped on the install option and would like to delete the download from my machine. But, unlike with a nomal Mac, there is no hard drive icon for me to enter in order to find the file. Does anyone know how to delete this UNINSTALLED file?

Let me be clear that I'll probably eventually download iOS 6 after the bugs are worked out. But some family members also use my iPad and I KNOW someone is going to accidentally install this despite my warnings.

If you are jailbroken, install Software Update Killer then it cannot get installed.

that really doesnt answer the question. I mean why bother replying with something thats easy enough to find from a quick google search.

I found a directory called softwareupdate.494 in /private/var/MobileSoftwareUpdate/

its 1.5 GB

but has anyone successfully remove the ios 6 uninstalled update and all references to the download?
