IPhone4 won't update iOS through itunes?

This is driving me nuts! I have my phone plugged into my MacBook, and iTunes is open. It just synced my phone, and I am on the iPhone iTunes screen, in the area where it gives you the option to check for updates to update your iOS software, and the button below to restore for issues. Everytime I push the update button, it says contacting iphone update services, then it says "your itunes software is up to date" when I am not even trying to update my itunes, I am trying to update my phone-and right there next to the button it says your phone is not up to date, push update to update your phone to iOS 6. This problem makes no sense to me, I already restarted my computer-and it still is giving me the same issue. What kind of glitch is this and how on earth do I get around it? Not only is it frustrating enough that my hotspot only allows OTHERS to have WiFi and my phone won't download over the wifi because I am only a provider of WiFi and it won't consider my phone on WiFi. My boyfriend updated his phone through my hotspot, and my only option is to connect to my computer. My iPhone is driving me nuts!!!

I have the latest version of itunes(at least it says its up to date with 10.6.1(7) when I check), and my itunes keeps telling me that everytime I try to update my iphone. For some reason everytime I try to update to ios 6, it thinks im updating my itunes. When I am clearly in the iphone section of itunes and my phone is plugged in. This is how I updated my iphone last time with ios 5, since having a hotspot does not mean you have wifi(which is another major pet peeve I have with iphone)... It is just a weird glitch and I am so annoyed w it. There seems to be no fix. I wish I had freakin' wifi, oh wait I do, I wish iphones didn't suck so much with there stupid hotspots. grrr...

IOS update error through iTunes. error-3259

while updating ios via iTunes after some time i get the error - 3259 and couldn't download update message receives. Please help me in this.

I have an iPhone 6, my MacBook's software is current and updated, and when I tried to run the 8.3 software update on my iPhone it prompted me with a black screen, iTunes logo, and the power cord. I plugged my device into the laptop's USB and have it connected to a power source and is on my wifi. The iTunes "update" says it will take 27 hours and is continually stopping every 20 minutes or so giving me error code 1671. I click through all the prompts and it picks up where it left off. I too can not use my phone and am hoping there is a quicker way to update. Anyone else having this issue?

You have a 1st generation iPod Touch. It can not be upgraded beyond iOS 3.1.3, it is available at the link below.

I cannot get apps to appear in my library menu so i can update them through iTunes. Happened since update to 11.0.2.Have tried all the suggested fixes such as making the sidebar appear etc New update is 'nasty'

As stated no matter how hard i try i CANNOT get apps to appear in my sidebar library menu so i can update them through itunes.Has only happened since last update of itunes .Really wish i hadn't updated as i have never had an issue b4.Spent most of day on fone to apple yesterday as the update created an issue that meant i could not sync at all.Anyway thanks to 'james' in arizona we sorted the first piece of trouble the update created .(sortof).
Not sure why it has to be messed with.Well i spose it is progress!!!
I've looked at lots of posts re this and tried all the suggestions but just cannot get the magic 'apps' category to appear in my sidebar in itunes???
One suggestion was that the apps if clicked on would have an 'update ' button but all i can do is delete them
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated
(running osx 10.7.5 on MBP -slightly tricky cos i also run windows in a 'bootcamped' partition.Mind u itunes etc is in mac partition and has been working fine for the last 10 years!!!!!!!!!)

I'm going to assume that you use only one Apple ID so the two things that I can think of are to quite all processes and restart all devices and then try to sync those apps again. Quit iTunes, restart your computer and the iPad and then try to sync the apps again.
The other thing would be to try to reset your iTunes account by signing in and out of the account on the iPad. Settings>Store>Apple ID - tap the ID and sign out. Restart the iPad and then sign in to your account and try again.

Shame you had the iPhone hacked as O2 usually unlock their customers iPhones happily.
We cannot discuss your problem as it is in breach of the Ts&Cs you agreed to on registering
However hint ....you have probably trashed it

Can I update iOs using itunes without internet connection?

I am using an ipad mini 2, second generation. I plugged it in to itunes and there was an update avaible for ios 8. Can I update iOs using itunes without internet connection? Thank you

iTunes needs an internet connection to download the update if it has not already. Then it needs to verify the update with Apple servers prior to installation.
So in short, no, you do need at least some form of internet access to update.

Can't install or update apps through iTunes

Seems I can't install or update apps through iTunes. It keeps giving me error messages. I the only way I can get around this is updating through the App Store app on iPod touch. I think this problem started since updating to Lion.

What are the specific error messages?

How do I turn on iphone after trying to update software through itunes on computer?

Normally when updating while connected to your computer running iTunes the iPhone will go through the complete update process and then restart. It will vibrate when it is finished restarting.

Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Update apps through iTunes

I have an iPhone 4 running iOS 5. My iPhone shows that there are updates for two of my apps. When I select Store > Check for Available Downloads in iTunes I get a message that says "All purchases have been downloaded for this account." How can I update the apps through iTunes?

John Link wrote:
I'm aware that I don't have the latest OS on my iPhone.
What I meant is that iTunes has the 2 apps already updated. You need to connect & select iPhone in iTunes and click the Sync button as describe above to update the apps on iPhone.
I want to avoid using 2.
Why?

Apps Wont Update on Family iTunes

Dear Forum
I have changed my wife from my iTunes account to her own iTunes account and made her part of my Family account with me the lead account. Now lots of her apps on her iPhone 6 wont update. Is this to be expected? i thought that if the accounts were linked then she could purchase, and iunb this case, update apps, with her own password???

Try the following:
1. Turn iPad off and on again
2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo
3. Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
4. Use iTune (computer) to update/download and sync to iPad
