Ok I installed Mac 10.15 Catalina and decided to install iPad OS. All instructions on the internet say use iTunes. However, iTunes is now gone once Cataliina is installed. Now I have to figure out to install iPad OS. I thought that once Catalina was installed it would have some obvious steps to install iPad OS.

Can anyone save me some time and tell me.
[doublepost=1559603592][/doublepost]I found the answer:

Devices now show up in finder on Catalina. Connect your device, launch finder, and your device should appear. You can then update/restore to the .ipsw file from there, the same way as you could from iTunes.

You need to hold the option key click on update and select the ipsw.
