  • Trying to Download IOS Update via ITunes

    Hi.....I have an IPhone 4. Im not able to download the most recent IOS7.0.6 update via wireless and am trying to update via ITunes.Phone is plugged in to PC.  I have verified that I have the latest version of ITunes. However, when I go to file-devices,  Backup is greyed out and the only option is "Restore from Backup". What am I doing wrong??

    FORCE IPAD INTO RECOVERY MODE
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
    3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
    4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
    DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
    5. Release Home button.
    ON COMPUTER
    6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
    7. Select "Restore iPad"...
    Note:
    1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
    2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.
    3. Repeat the process if necessary.

  • HT4623 I am trying to install iOS 5.1 on my iPad, but when I go to 'Settings' and then to 'General' the link 'Software update' is not visible. Any advice welcome.

    I am trying to install iOs 5.1 on myiPad but when I go to 'General' to 'Settings' the link 'Software update' is not visible. Any advice would be welcome.

    This feature is only available on iOS 5 or later.  You must still be running iOS 4.  Connect your iPad to the computer you usually sync with and run iTunes software update.

  • HT4623 I get an error message when I try to install iOS 6, how do reinstall the iOS without connecting to iTunes ?

    I get an error message whilst trying to install iOS 6 which has already downloaded to my phone.

    You could try reseting.  MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A VALID BACKUP AND KNOW HOW TO RESTORE IT BEFORE YOU TRY THIS
    Go to settings-general-reset-erase all content and settings.   This should be your last resort, it'll erase your data...

  • HT4972 I am trying to install iOS 6 on my IPAD2 but none of the screens that you display look like mine and there is no click to update button.

    I am trying to install iOS 6 on my IPAD2 but none of the screens that are displayed are what is on my IPAD.

    If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
    Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

  • Trying to install iOS 7.1.2 error message coming up

    TRying to install iOS 7.1.2 to iPad error message coming so won't install

    Just to make sure are you connected to WiFi?
    Try a reset:
    - Hold the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time. When the Apple logo appears release both buttons.
    If issue remains try another WiFi network. Alternatively you can try the steps below to update with iTunes on a computer:
    First back up: iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    Then Update iOS with iTunes: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

  • How do i get my iphone 5 out of recovery mode after trying to install ios 7

    Alright, so i tried to install ios 7 and i got an error saying that the ios 7 update got a problem and so then my phone went into recovery mode. i installed tiny umbrella to get it out of recovery and it worked, so then i tried to install ios 7 again and it got another error this time my phone had already been switched to the ios 7 format but was not completely done, so my phone went into recovery mode again. so i tried tiny umbrella again and it just kept going back to recovery mode. i tried to restore my phone after trying to look for another way to get my phone out of recovery mode and i got nothing so i decided to restore my phone and i then get another freaking error saying that itunes could not restore due to a problem, then i just decided to try tiny umbrella one last time and it didnt work. so i tried to restore again but now my phone is not being detected on itunes so i cant do anything, and my phone is stuck in recovery mode... all i was trying to do is get the new update and now my phone is dead, it wont do anything please help!!

    Use tinyumbrella. Connect your iphone, click on the random string of numbers that appears in the recover devices window, and click "exit recovery". That solved my problem, and it may solve yours. Give it a shot.

  • I tried to install iOS 7 and now my phone won't turn on?

    Well, around 3 hours ago I tried to install iOS 7. It said I didn't have enough space so I deleted mostly all of my apps, all my music, all my photos and all my videos. It then said I had enough space so I went to install it. It kept saying error over and over again so I tried restarting my phone (which is an iPhone 4) and then it went all wrong. It just stayed on the Apple logo and never went off it. I asked around and I was told to do a hard reboot (I hold down the off and home button for 10 seconds, then lift my finger off the off button until the logo comes on again and links with my iTunes). I did this and it linked with my iTunes but it won't download iOS 7 from it (it says it has "40 hours remaining" or something ridiculous but doesn't budge - it wants to download iOS7 from iTunes when I am trying to recover my iPhone) because after waiting for a while, an error pops up. It's just a vicious cycle with nothing at all changing and it's really annoying me now. Can anyone help? It's getting late and I *REALLY* need this phone for tomorrow.
    Please help me.

    The phone is in recovery mode. See this support document for instructions on what to do. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

    Hi i uppdate my I phone 4 to iso6 via laptop ,during the operation the laptop restart it's self then I connect my iPhone 4 to iTunes again to finish the uppdating but its stuck to Apple log tried to restore it again via iTunes i get the same problem its stuck to Apple logo i tried to restor it from another pc i get the same problem anyone can help please

    Hi, did you ever solve this problem?
    My 1 year old -- ha! one month out of warranty -- iPhone 4 has been having a nearly identical problem over the past few days.
    It started by dying completely so I had the battery replaced, thinking it was simply battery issue.
    It then worked again for a moment but started doing exactly what you describe, going through a reset cycle (longer than 30 seconds but who's counting). And it felt quite warm.
    Did hard reset, plugged into wall charger and MBP USB but the new battery wouldn't even get a full charge (a whopping 92% after nearly two days). It would even lose battery when plugged in if I opened an app. And all the while plugged in, if I left the phone on, it would cycle through these resets. So I turned it off to try to charge it.
    Now suddenly, it's dead again. Totally black, and hard reset does nothing. Up until two days ago there was nothing wrong whatsoever with this phone! And I hadn't even installed a new app that could be the root of the issue. No idea whatsoever what caused this.
    Any help would be much appreciated!!
