What does the question posted have to do with the thread title? Those are two different and separate things.

"how to transfer data from your old iPad to your new iPad Air 2" - Back up the device via iCloud. Sign in to the new device with the same Apple ID and restore from the backup.

"my itunes needs updating but my computer says there is a problem when trying to update it, how can i update through iCloud?" - You cannot update iTunes via iCloud. Try going directly to Apple's iTunes website and download the new version directly.
