  • Can not update my IOS ... Please Help

    HI i added extra storage and i can not update my IOS and phone says i have 16.7GB avail. help please

    If you bought extra icloud storage, that is not what the storage that you need to update your phone.
    It is talking about storage on the device itself. If you have a 16 gigabyte iPhone, and only have 1 GB available, you will NOT be able to update no matter how much icloud storage space you have.
    Check in settings>general>usage
    At the top it will say Storage, then show how many GBs are used, and how many are available. You need to have at least 3 GB in available to upgrade.

  • Can not update Ipod touch to IOS 5

I have tried various things to get rid of this problem restarting my laptop and also I have updated my itunes software to the newest one. Any help with this problem will be great cheers

    Two solutions:
    - Disable the computer's security software during the download and update.
    - Directly download and install the update using the instuctions here:

  • Can not update to IOS 6.1.2 on iphone 4 & apps not working - HELP!!

    my iphone 4 says there is an update available to IOS 6.1.2 when i click on "install now" nothing happens! the wording goes faint but no update actually happens! I updated to IOS 6.1.2 on my ipad and noticed that is said "download and install now" but on my iphone it only says "install now" (not sure if this matters) also my facebook and twitter apps no longer work in my iphone 4 and my calender freezes everytime I go to use it! HELP PLEASE!!! Thanks

    The firewall would be in your router.
    I would just keep retrying. The update is first downloaded. Then the update is expanded and then the iPod contacts the Apple server to verify the update. For some reason at that time the iPod can't contact the Apple server.  That has happened to me and it went through after one or two retries.

  • Can not update iPod Nano, brand new and error says there is not enough room

    I just purchased my son a 1 gig nano. After registering and setting up options for updates. I got a message saying that it could not update because there wasn't enough room. I was trying to download less than 100 songs and all of them have been downloaded from iTunes. I have already completed the "5R's" as suggested in the troubleshooting section and it still will not update. iTunes recognizes his iPod, all software has been updated, I've reset and restarted. Very frustrated and my 11 year old is very devestated. Could someone please help?
    Thank you

    There's not an actual limit number to the ammount of songs that any iPod can hold. It's all size dependant. You might have simply downloaded a lot of large songs. When you're in iTunes check at the bottom of the screen to see how many megs or gig they actually take up. And keep in mind a 1 gig iPod isn't actually 1 gig. There is always a bit of space used up by system files and whatnot.

  • Can Not Update to iOS 8.1

    My iPad said to connect to iTunes when I was updating to iOS 8.1. What does this mean and how do I get out of it?

    It means something happened that requires you to restore your iPad. Start itunes on your computer and connect your iPad. You should be prompted through the restoration process. When that is finished you can restore from a backup.

  • CAN NOT UPDATE iPOD. file or directory being corrupted.. help me!!

    I have no idea why my iPod won't sync, but when I try to sync it this message error comes up:
    The iPod "myiPodname" cannot be updated. The file or directory is corrupted and unreadable.
    Can you please help?
    I'm so confused.
    :/

    I have the same thing going on!!! I was able to restore the ipod- but that just erased my songs off my ipod- now the error signal pops up when I go to sync my library to my ipod.

  • "Can not Update iPod because Playlist no longer exists" (!!!)

    This is the message I get when I plug my iPod in. The songs remain in my library, but my playlists do not sync to my iPod. My iPod remains empty. This happened after I updtated iTunes to 6.5. Any advice?

    while the ipod is plugged in and showing up in your itunes sourcelist, go into your "ipod" preferences tab.
    you will currently have "automatically update selected playlists only" selected in there. compare the list of playlists in the box beneath that option with the playlists currently appearing in your itunes sourcelist. if you find any that no longer show up in your sourcelist, uncheck them in the preferences display.
    for some more info on how that update setting works, see:

    Please advice,

    -1 error too
    If still problem  that means a hardware problem. In that case make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • How do I know what version of iPhone I use? Is it 3, 4 or 5? I CSN not update to iOS 8!?

    i can not update to iOS 8? Have 7.1.2.

    ThoBer wrote:
    My iPad, on the contrary updates
    So?  Your iPad is obviously a model then that supports iOS 8, and your iPhone is not.  Why would you assume that two different devices would have to be compatible with the same iOS?

  • Why my ipad can not update the ios7.1.1

    why my ipad can not update the ios 7.1.1

    Hello there, crivera350.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for if you are unable to update your iOS device:
    If you can't update or restore your iOS device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    Recovery mode erases your device and restores it, which should resolve the issue. If you previously synced with iTunes or iCloud, you may be able to restore from your backup after recovery.
    Turn off your device. If you can't turn it off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time and wait a few seconds for it to turn off.
    Plug the device's USB cable into your computer only.
    Hold down the device's Home button as you connect the USB cable to it.
    When you see the Connect to iTunes screen, release the Home button. If you don't see this screen, try steps 1 through 3 one more time.
    iTunes should open and display a message such as: "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery mode. You must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes."
    Use iTunes to restore your device.
    If you don't see your device in iTunes, follow these steps for Mac or these for Windows.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • IPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers?

    iPod 4,1 will not update to iOS 7. I updated my iMac to 10.9.1 (maverick). Latest Numbers version on iMac is not compatible with Numbers on iPod. Ideas? Can I go back a version with Numbers? I downloaded old version of Numbers 2.0.1 from DVD but with both versions the 2.0.1 will not open.  So both versions are present but only the new version functions. I tried to drag the new version to the trash but the old version still runs error message and will not open. I did not try to restart with the new version in the trash.

    Maybe. See:

    my  ipod touch is 3rd gen how can i update my ios from 4.2.1 to 5.1.1 when i shift + restore and load the ipod3_5.1.1.ios its always say your firmware is not compatible

    I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1.
    Identifying iPod models
    iPod touch (3rd generation)
    iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
    The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
