I have a iphone 3gs and i want to update to 5.0
I want to update to the new 5.0 and when I check for updates when I connect to iTunes it says that I have the most recent update which is 4.2.1. How can I update my phone. I have a iPhone 3G.
Sorry, iOS 4.2.1 is the end of the line for your phone. You cannot update your iOS any further.

I have an iPhone 3GS. I want to update to iOS 4.2.1. In settings, general, I do not have a software update option. What to do?
You won't see this until you update to iOS 5. You'll have to update using iTunes by going to the Summary tab of your sync settings and clicking on Check for Update (you will probably be prompted that there is an update available when you connect your phone and open iTunes).

can anyone please help me to update the OIS on my iphone?
The ability to update from the iphone itself is only available with iod 5 and above.
As you have ios 4, you will hae to update as always.
Turn on computer.
Open itunes
Connect iphone
From teh article you linked from:
If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you normally sync
You may see the following iTunes message:
Follow these recommended steps before updating your iOS device:
Transfer purchases3 to your computer.
Back up your device by syncing it with your Mac or PC first." -

hello im fation mashi im from albania i have a iphone 3 and i want to update it with ios 4.3.3 but i have fear because maybe can block the apple if i update it can you please help me ?
Since an iPhone 3G cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1...the end of the line for that model iPhone...you can't do what you want, so there's nothing to be fearful of.

I have synced it several times and nothing changes. I'm afraid to restore it because last time it deleted everything on there, even when I updated it, Everything was deleted and I always back it up. But now the internet is slow and it just loads and loads and it froze a one point, I've turned it off then back on, still nothing.
There are several ways to get iOS on your phone.
In iOS 5.0+, go to Settings<General<Software Update
Connect your phone to iTunes and select "Check for Update". It should prompt you for 5.1
Google for a direct copy of iOS 5.1 for your phone and download it to your computer (it is downloaded from Apple servers, so don't worry about voiding warranty). Restore your phone as normal and hold down Shift (Windows) or Alt (Mac) when clicking restore to specifiy which iOS build you're putting on your phone. You would want to use the 5.1 file you downloaded)
Can you specify the error given? -

I have an iPhone 3gs and want to change my default new calendar appt duration to 15 or 30 minutes instead of an hour. Is this possible?
I know the phone is an old model, but it's new to me, and I am new to iPhones in general.First sorry for your loss.
You will need to purchase a program like touch copy http://m.wideanglesoftware.com/index.php#page2 to extract the voicemail and place a copy of it on your computer. -

I have an iPhone 3gs and since I made the 6.01 update everytime I want to join a wireless network I get the same error "incorrect password" when I now it's correct, any one have a solution for this? Tks
I would say that you would want to look into the "Exchange Mode" for GMail. That would allow your iPhone to sync calendars, contacts and email with GMail just fine. Doing the same with your outlook should also then sync those same with your PC using Outlook. I've done teh iPhone side of this, but I since I don't run Lookout for my email client, I'm not sure how that will work on the PC side.

I have a iPhone 3GS and my husband has an iPhone 4, both phones are updated. We added iMessage the them both and at first it was great, the messages appear in the text messages under the phone contacts and when I send a text message it will either be a green message or a blue one for (iMessage) depending on the signal. Now when my husband sends a text message to me I don't get them all or some days none. When I send him a text message he gets them from my email address. I cannot send him a standard text anymore my phone only wants to iMessage, so if the signal is not right it just sits there undelivered???
I also have a friend who that we regularly texted each other, for the past 4 months I can receive her texts but she never gets mine? And I have tried countless times, now iv given up trying and I don't use texting to either, but everyone else no problem.You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that. Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card. Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account.
Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud. Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account. To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.
