The ipad 1 will not update to ios 7 because it will make it run too slow, and u don't want it at the speed it will run, apple decided to not let the ipad 1 work on ios 7 because of the speed and it would also make it crash heaps.

Pato_lucas Oct 26, 2013

I'd agree don't do it, IOS7 will contain 64bit OS for the the Iphone 5S all of Siri, Smarter maps, etc etc features which would not be allowed on your model. It would be detrimental to download

SOURCE: friend pressed update to ios 7 on my ipad 2

I suggest you let it download the updation file because usually there is no option to abort the download and if you do not want to install the update just decline the license agreement this will abort the 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.
