Just updated my iPhone 4 from IOS 6.1.3 to 7.1.2, I know I am behind the times, but I got there eventually! All seems well but I have one specific problem and hope someone can offer a helpful suggestion.
On opening the app "Find my iPhone" I add my password and sign in, to be greeted with a screen that says;
"Update Find My iPhone. A new version of Find My iPhone is available from the App. Store. You must install the update to continue using the app. Update now"
On hitting the "Update now" button I'm taken to the relevant page on the App Store, to be told that I cannot update as it needs IOS8 to be able to continue and as my iPhone is only a 4 cannot install IOS8.
I'm left going around in circles. The only thing would be to delete the app, but looks like I could not re-install the version I would need. Any body have any thoughts or suggestions? (Apart from updating my phone, I have a few months left on the contract!)
Thanks in advance.

Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

Hello everyone,
I just updated my 3GS from iOS 5.0.0 to 5.0.1
Since the update, Itunes says that no SIM card is detected, and the iPhone says that it cannot be activated. It also obviously does not detect any network.
I tried restarting the phone several times, removing the SIM card several times, but it did not change anything, the SIM is still not detected.

I just updated my iphone to ios 7 and updated itunes to 11.1. Yesterday I noticed I couldn't move music from my library to my iphone. Today I noticed that most of the music on my iphone is gone. What do I do?

I don't see how the AAC Version thing really applies here - the issue seems to be with
the time it takes for "Preparing to Update" to run when adding new songs and
the fact that a bunch of songs can get temporarily deleted from your phone, then need to be recopied over.
I should also add that I'm using iTunes for Mac (OS 10.6).
And Linda0410, if you view your phone's library in iTunes on your computer while it's copying, you should be able to see a bunch of grayed out songs, and there will be a little indicator on the left hand side of each song that's currently being copied.

Hi Apple_Mom,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you've noticed issues after updating to iOS 7.0.2, you may want to first update to iOS 7.0.3 which was recently released.

I am assuming you updated to version 5.1.1, not 5.0.1 since no legitimate version of 5.0.1 is available.
Where is this iPhone from and what means did you use to unlock it?

I just updated my iphone to IOS 7 and it won't let me agree to the terms and conditions? Its frozen on that page! Help me!!

Try downloading the Find My Friends app, then sign in with your iCloud ID on it and accept the terms and conditions there.

I have 2 problems I hope someone can help me with.

As the title says, I problems I hope someone can help me with as I don't know who else to ask for this.
1. I tried to pre-order Dying Light for the Xbox One and during checkout the system cancelled my order saying that the store stock had been spoken for. However, I went in once the game released to the same store and was able to purchase the game no problem so in effect I just missed out on my $10 pre-order certificate.I wanted to pre-order but it wouldn't let me - I have never seen this error before.
2. I took advantage of the $39.99 12+1 month Xbox Live Gold gift card you had on sale yesterday. Only the Halo one was abailable at my local store so I ordered 2 of those for pickup. I got home and used the cards and it was only for 12 months not 12+1 as it still says on the website here:
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=3878002,+8972116&_dyncharset=UTF-8&id=pcat17071&type=p...
Is there a way to get the extra month advertized?
Thank you!
Solved!

Hello also_nadrag,
Thanks for writing in, and thanks too for being a My Best Buy member. We appreciate your loyalty. I'll be happy to talk to you about your recent online experiences.
From the sound of things you may have waited too long to attempt a pre-order for in-store pickup for Dying Light. As the order was not able to be processed, I'm afraid we will not be issuing the $10 certificate.
The product description on the Xbox Live Halo card is incorrect in labeling this item as including 1 extra month. As the image online and packaging indicates, this card has an extra bonus for Halo: The Master Chief Collection. We have reported the description error and I hope it is corrected soon. I am sorry for any confusion this may have caused.
Please visit us any time with questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Mike|Social Media Specialist | Best Buy® Corporate

Why doesn't siri know how to change the time of a reminder? When asked, "Do you want to confirm or cancel your reminder?" Reply, "Can I change the time to a half hour later?" Siri doesn't know how to respond.

Hi
In iMovie'11 (version 9.0.x)
on top menu row - Apple/iMovie/File/Edit/Cut (Can vary dep. on language - in Swedish Apple/iMovie/Arkiv/Redigera/Klipp . . . )
down Cut menu - Slow playback/Raspid Playback/Re-play in Slow Motion and onvards
Here one can select the Pre-Set speeds
Are you familiar with getting 'inspector' to run?
No - but I guess that Double Click on clip/sequense or ctrl-Click on it might open it.
