Can I update my iPhone using an iPad?
Am just wondering if the iPad is capable of being able to update my iPhone or do I need to use a computer?
The iPad, no. But once you've upgraded to 5.0, you can upgrade directly to the iPhone (or iPad) without a computer.

I am going travelling - Can I update my I phone 4 using any computer as long as I log in to my itunes account??
Here's the deal: You can update iPhone software on any computer, as updating software does not touch any user data or settings...unless something goes wrong(rare). If something were to go wrong, and this is not the computer you normally sync with, you could lose ALL of your data. You also do not want to sync, if this is not the computer you normally sync with. So, make sure you disable auto-sync under iTunes>Preferences>Devices first. Do not sync after you update.

i can't update my iPhone 5c to the update os 8. I don't have a wi fi connection. Anyone know how I can update my phone to the new 8 and connect to wi fi or use my cellular data to update it plz and thank u
Hello, Chryslers6.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that you are wanting to update your iPhone 5c via the over-the-air option. You will need to be connected to power and a Wi-Fi source to use this option. You should be able to do this while being connected to any Wi-Fi network. You also have the option to update via iTunes. The article below will walk you through the process of updating your iPhone.

Updated ipad yesterday to 7.0.6 and now can't connect to internet. Tried cellular, Verizon and Comcast. Updated 2 iphone 5S and ipad mini today and all work fine. Any suggestions?
Has the unit EVER been jailbroke?
If "No," first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this. -
Hi frnds, i am using iphone 3gs, i want to know how can i update my iphone to ios 4.3.3
hi frnds, i am using iphone 3gs, i want to know how can i update my iphone to ios 4.3.3 or any other ios.
Please note the iPhone 3G can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1.
If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

Information regarding transferring purchases from your iDevice to iTunes on your syncing computer can be found at the link below.

I tried to update my iphone 3gs from ios 5 to 6 but because of software crash and while restoring with ios 6 it is not activated. Now I degrade it in ios 4 and can not use any app. How can I update this iphone?
Downgrading the iOS is not supported, and likely has caused the problems you are experiencing.
You'll need to go elsewhere for support. -
some body can help me with that?
can i updating my iphone to the 4.2 version using itunes here in colombia now?The 3G was never sold as unlocked in the USA. So this phone has been hacked to work with any carrier. Updating it will remove the hack and re-lock it to AT&T making it usless to you. If you can avoid buying it I would. If you still want to purchase it... NEVER UPDATE.
Good luck. -

I can't update the software on my iPad 3 even though I've got enough storage space
I can't update the software on my iPad 3 even though I've got enough storage space, can you help? It is to update to IOS 7.0.4
Storage space on iCloud is not a substitute for storage space on the iPad. You need sufficient storage space on your iPad to accomodate the download. How much Available space do you have? Go to Settings>General>Usage
How much space is used by your Other? You may be able to reduce.
How Do I Get Rid Of The “Other” Data Stored On My iPad Or iPhone?
http://tinyurl.com/85w6xwn
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
