Can't update my settings because I am not linked to a wi fi network, how would I do that

My phone says I have a Software Update iOS 6.0.1, but won't allow me to download and install because I am not connected to a Wi Fi network, how do I do this.  I am able to download apps and everything else, just can't download this update.

Even if you could, I wouldn't reccommend downloading an iOS update unless you have an unlimited data plan and your service provider didn't slow you data connection after a certain amount of useage.  An iOS update eats up a lot of data useage.
I would do the update at home if you have WiFi or find a place that has free WiFi.  I would find a place that has a very fast internet connection.  Some places that provide free WiFi have very slow connections, so you could be stuck there for a while.

  • HT4623 My IPhone has IOS 3.1.2. Do I have to update to 4.0  before I update to 6.1 like my ITunes prompts me to? If so, How would I do that?

    **Note**
    I've recently tried updating my IPhone to the prompted 6.0.1 multiple times over that last few months. I connect the phone and click the update icon only to wait hour after hour for it to do nothing.
    Once I let set my computer up to stay on so that the phone could update while I was at work and when I came home that evening there was still no change.
    What could be going on?; because all my apple-guided trouleshouting has not helped.

  • The app store on my laptop is asking for my husband's apple id and password to update my apps, but he is not a user on my computer.  How do I change that?  The apple id email is grayed out, so I cannot select it.

    Delete and redownload those applications.

  • I can't update my apps because 'I have not owned the major version of this software' what is wrong?

    Since a few days, I can't update my apps anymore via apps update. I am getting a message that says: you cannot update this software since you have not owned the major version of this software'. What is going on? BTW - I can update by going to the App Store, searching for the app, which is listed as ready for an update, and then clicking....
    Thanks for any help,

    I did, thanks for suggesting.
    1st attempt was a failure. All apps that didn't update on phone (ex. Acrobat Reader, Evernote, Google Drive etc) didn't update on my mac's itune store. same message and an additional one with try later error 100.
    unrelated, (?!)
    wrote to apple support indicating the problem (20-25 mins ago). no response yet, just confirmation email.
    i changed my password (appleid), changed secondary email.
    went ahead and logged-in again with new credentials across all devices, suprise - all apps downloaded fine.

  • When trying to download Boot Camp Windows Support Software, error says: "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."

    I use a Macbook Pro 13" mid 2010 on Mavericks and I've tried using the Boot Camp assistant to download support software for Windows 7. This gives the error "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."
    Further, I tried to separately download Boot Camp 4 and 5. When I do this and try to install from Windows 7, it says that this version of Boot Camp is not for this computer and doesn't install. The result is that I have Windows 7 working and installed, but am unable to use the trackpad to rightclick, brightness settings, etc.
    Please help!
    Thanks

    You need to run Bootcamp Assistant and select only the menu item to download the Windows Support Software. Follow the instructions. The download servers are extremely slow therefore it may take several hours to get the download.

  • Hi i am trying to install windows to my macbook through boot camp and i get this message Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.!!!what can i do???please help me!

    Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server. this is the message that i get a few days now that i am trying to install windows through boot camp to my macbook!does anybody knows what i can do????

    You keep it on the usb stick for after you boot into Windows. From Windows you install the Windows Support software on the stick. Do you realize that you need to buy and install Windows? The Windows Support software you downloaded is only the Windows drivers for your hardware.
    Read the Boot Camp installation instructions and help guides located here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/

  • When I try to install Windows on iMac with Bootcamp I get this message,"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."

    I try to get Windows 7 on my iMac 21.5-inch but on the Bootcamp Assistant I get this message,"Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server." Please help me and thank you.

    I have that problem too.  There's many other discussion threads as well.  Either Apple doesn't realize they have a problem, or they do and simply don't care.  Either way, not good.
    There is a workaround that I'm going to try next.  Go to this webpage:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
    Scroll down to the middle of the webpage.  Hit "Expand All".  Now, search the webpage for the Apple product name of your computer.  It should be something like "MacBook Pro, 17-inch, Early 2008".  If you're unsure what you have, open "About This Mac" (upper left corner of your screen, Apple menu), and hit "More Info".
    Now that you've found your computer, read across the table, to the version of Windows that you want to install (32-bit or 64-bit).  Hopefully you'll find a "4" or "5" there.  Click on that number, to go to the download page for the drivers that you need.  If you just see an empty box there, then you're out of luck....
    Hopefully there will be drivers.  Download those, unzip, and then copy to a USB stick that has been formatted for MS-DOS FAT (or FAT32).  Use Disk Utility to format your USB stick if necessary.  Now, you have the drivers you should have gotten from the Boot Camp Assistant download.  You should then be able to go back to Boot Camp Assistant and follow the instructions from there.
    Hope it works!

  • Boot camp error: Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server.

    hi there i was trying to install windows via bootcamp and when i was trying to download the support software  i had an error of "Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server."  i am using a 15" 2009 macbook pro and the bootcamp version is 5.1.0 (473). can anyone help? thanks in advanced

    Instead of downloading the Windows support software from Boot Camp Assistant, download it from the Apple website. Mid 2009 and older MacBooks Pro only support this Windows support software version > http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1630 This version allows you to install a 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 version.
    Follow Apple's steps to install Windows on your computer > http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf

    How do I successfully install 64 bit WIndows 7 on my iMac?
    Thank you!

    Waited a month and tried again with the same result. What gives? Does Apple no longer support Bootcamp with Windows 7? Do they not read these posts and help out customers? If Apple doesn't care and won't help, can anyone else suggest something? My large company does not like Apple and barely supports those of us who buck the trend and buy Macs. If I have to buy a PC to support their software to work from home this only gives them more "ammunition" to decline to support Macs. Any advice anyone can give would be greatly appreciated!

  • Getting message: Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server

    Can't install the software because it is not currently available from the Software Update server...what does this mean? I'm trying to install windows 8.1 on my early 2009 iMac. I double check with telephone support to make sure I am able.

    Assuming you are referring to the Windows Support software, normally it means the download server is busy or off line. If you know what version of the support software you need you can get it here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/downloads/
    But in your case since you have an early 2009 iMac, your computer does not support Windows 8.1. See this table from: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634
