I hv iPhone with ios 6.0.2
My iphone could not able to check for update…it’s just showing “checking for updates” with loading sign
How can I upgrade to ios 7?
Help pls

I agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering.

    Your iPhone can be updated to the latest firmware in an Apple Store  but you would lose all the information off your phone.
    If your happy to do this, may I recommend backing up to iCloud once you are on iOS 5.1.1 and then you will be able to perform future upgrades over wifi and restore your phone from your iCloud account should you ever need to in the future.
    The other option might be to back your iPhone upto a friends computer without syncing and this might be the only way you could restore everything back onto your updated phone.
    Also download apps to back up your contacts online so that you can restore them also after the update.
    May I suggest Contacts Backup app which enables you to back up your contacts by email, Dropbox or via USB.
    Hope this helps.

    Buy Snow Leopard from the online Apple Store - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard - and update until you get to 10.6.8. Then, if you're computer is able to run Mountain Lion, you'll be able to purchase ML and install it via the App Store.

  • How can i upgrade system IOS images of routers, switches and firewalls

    Hi,
    I am very much surprised and less of understanding yet how Cisco's licensing program or IOS upgrades are done. I have many routers, switches & ASA's of whom i wan to upgrade the IOS's but i cannot do so. How ever i can download those images from internet but i want to know how can i do this from Cisco as i don't want to trust those IOS's available over internet.
    As per my study what i have found that i need to have Cisco Service Contract number for that devices so that i can download updated IOS Images for them.
    Someone kindly explain what are the best methods for the above requirements.
    Regards
    @Mohammed

    You're correct regarding a service contract. Cisco calls this Smartnet support. It includes both hardware support (i.e. returns for failed hardware), software support (including right to download and upgrade your software) and technical assistance (via the Cisco TAC). Smartnet is charged separately for each covered device. Once you have it, your cisco.com userid needs to be associated with your service contract number. Doing that will then allow you to download the software from cisco.com. (There are some very limited cases in which you don't have to have a support contract - mostly when there is a security advisory (PSIRT) indicating the Cisco software was flawed as it was initially released.)
    Every product (or product family) has a product support page on cisco.com. That page includes release notes, configuration guide, users guides, and a link to software downloads for that product. Start by reading the release notes and determining which (if any) upgrade is appropriate for your product. Then you can download and upgrade the software as necessary.

  • I am using ios 4.2 gm how can i upgrade to ios 4.3.3 without any error?, i am using ios 4.2 gm how can i upgrade to ios 4.3.3 without any error?

    i am using ios 4.2 8c134, i can't upgrade to any ios.. but ios 5.xx above i not try yet.. any suggestion or ideas to make sure the upgrade will work?
    sorry for my bad english.. 

    It is not possible to update the iOS to any version besides the most recent version. You can only update to iOS 5.1 at the time.
    Start iTunes on your computer and use its menu to check for updates. If there is an update download and install the latest version of iTunes for your computer. Then restart your computer and start iTunes. Connect your iPad to your computer and in iTunes on your computer select your iPad in the left column. In the right column select General and click on Check for Updates. Follow the prompts to complete the update process.
    The iOS update is a large file. A good Internet connection is required. Many users have discovered that they need to turn off virus protection and their firewall to get the update to proceed to completion. If you have problems updating turn off these items and try again

    Yes, you need to upgrade to OS 10.6.8 Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

  • My macbook pro has just stopped recognising my SD card, why and how can i fix it? please help

    My macbook pro has just stopped reading my SD card,
    can you help

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010 that don't have an SD card slot. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

    What the latest ios for iphone 3g A1241 model?  How can i upgrade it.

    iOS 4.2.1 is the latest.
    If you are on a previous level to update you will have to connect your iPad to iTunes on a computer (preferably the one you sync with and backup to).

  • I'm not able to download Itunes.  I keep getting this Apple Software Update message that states "There is a problem with this Windows installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your package vendor"

    Not able to access Itunes store anymore.  Just quit working for no reason.  I've tried deleting Itunes and related components from the Control Panel, but when I try to remove Apple Software Update, I get a message that states "There is a problem with this Windows installer package.  A program required for this install to complete could not be run.  Contact your support personnel or package vendor".  Not sure what this message means.  Am I suppose to contact Apple ?  What is meant by package vendor ?

    Apparently it's an itunes issue. I just tried to update and got the same issue. Called att to activate my iphone 4s and they say they can do the swap but apple is telling them itunes is down atm.  So will have to wait

  • I have a MacBook 5,1 (13.3" aluminum from 2007 or 2008). Automatic updates will only let me get to OSX 10.5.8.  Can I upgrade to Snow Leopard, Lion 10.6 or even 10.6.8?  Also, will I have any issues with my iPhone if it's updated to iOS 7.1?

    I have a MacBook 5,1 (13.3" aluminum from 2007 or 2008). Automatic updates will only let me get to OSX 10.5.8.  Can I upgrade to Snow Leopard, Lion 10.6 or even 10.6.8?  Also, will I have any issues with my iPhone if it's updated to iOS 7.1?

    The 10.6 Snow Leopard DVD is in the Apple online store. You can get it for $19.99. You will need to be running 10.6.8 to access the App Store to order Lion or Mountain Lion. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    System Requirements for 10.6:
    Mac computer with an Intel processor
    1GB of memory
    5GB of available disk space
    DVD drive for installation
    Some features require a compatible internet service provider: fees may apply.
    You can upgrade direct from 10.6.8 to 10.8 Mountain Lion without going through 10.7 Lion with the Late 2008 model 5,1 Aluminum Unibody. The Model 5,1 will probably run 10.9 Mavricks when it comes out.
    10.8 Mountain Lion is a download from the App Store, the price is $19.99.
    Mountain Lion will require at least 2gb of RAM but really needs 4gb to run smoothly.
    As for third party programs see this list for compatibility with 10.8 http://roaringapps.com/apps:table
    Also Mountain Lion doesn't run any Power PC programs. To see if you have any Power PC programs go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up select Applications under Software. Then look under Kind to see if any of your applications are listed as Power PC. Universal and Intel will run under Mountain Lion.
    Before Mac switched to Intel processors in 2006 they used Power PC processors from 1994 to 2005. Power PC 601 through 604, G3, G4 and G5. Applications written for the Power PC processors need the application called Rosetta to run on Intel processors. This was part of the Operating System in 10.4 and 10.5 but was an optional install in 10.6. With 10.7 Lion Apple dropped all support for Power PC applications.
