Can you download iOS updates without the iPhone connected to your computer?

I'm trying to do the iOS 8 update for my phone - "Download Only" - and the pop-up window says "32 hours remaining!" Is there a way for me to continue the download without having the iPhone itself connected to iTunes?

Probably. Didn't try that myself, but once the download is going your iPhone should not need to remain connected.

    You mean for an iPhone 4S?  You can't.  Yo can only update an iPhone 4S to iOS 8.1.3.
    The only iPhone that can currently download iOS 6 is an iPhone 3GS.

    OK, but if you do want to try iTunes, you just hook up your iPhone to your PC or Mac like you were going to sync it, and it will tell you that there is an update for your phone when you initiate the sync.
    Otherwise, best of luck! Hope it all gets sorted out quickly!!!

  • How can I use Office Update without the Office CD?

    How can I use Office Update without the Office CD? On the microsoft website I've clicked the options which mean I shouldn't need the CD (which wasn't supplied with the laptop), but poartway through updating the service pack I get a request for the Office 2000 Professional CD.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi
    Did you mean a Office or One Note?
    As far as I know the One Note is a part of the Recovering Image and the CD is not delivered with the unit. Furthermore the Toshiba units are not delivered with the Office 2000 software.
    Nevertheless, did you check the update function in the Help i.e. in Word?
    There you will find a options called Check for Updates

  • Can you make IOS 7 for the iPod 4th Generation please?

    Can you make iOS 7 for the IPod 4th generation because to be honest it's not fair to us iPod 4th Generation users that the iPod 5 and the IPhone users get to have it but we don't

    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

  • Can't download my podcast on the iphone itunes app

    I made an enhanced podcast and submitted it to itunes but even though I can subscribe to the feed, sync it to my phone, and listen to it in all its podcasty glory, I can not download the same episode from the itunes app on my I phone.
    I called tech support and they didn't have an answer my phone, garage band and itunes are all up to date.
    Anybody seen anything like this before? Could my feed be messed up? I use squarespace.com's wysiwyg tools to control and manage my site and its feed.

    I don't have an iPhone so this isn't something I can check. You could try asking in the iPhone Forum: give your podcast details and someone may be able to try it out and see what happens.

  • How can you download premier pro when the icon doesn't exist in cloud?[was:pr]

    how can you download premier pro when the iucon doesent exist in cloud???

    In order to download the software, your computer must meet the system requirements to run the software.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-premiere-pro.htmlhttp://www.adobe.com/products/premiere/tech-specs.html
    The usual reason for not being able to download is that Premiere Pro (and other video apps such as After Effects) are 64 bit only so they require a 64 bit computer and a 64 bit operating system.
    If you're running a 32 bit computer and operating system then you will not see the Premiere Pro icon since the software will not run on your computer.

  • HT4528 how can you recover deleted photos from the iPhone hard drive?

    Is there anyway possible i can recover my deleted photos from my iphone hard drive for free?

    You can't for two reasons: First, the iPhone doesn't have a hard drive. Second, there is no Trash folder, so once something is deleted it is gone forever. If you were foresighted enough to sync your phone regularly the photos should still be in the app you used for managing photos from digital cameras on your computer, and they are also in the iPhone backup on your computer. If you enabled Photo Stream they are also in iCloud. But if you didn't take advantage of any of these backup options you are out of luck.

  • Can you listen to music without the headphones?

    Can you listen to music on the iPod Classic without the headphones?

    The Classic does not have an internal speaker, so either you need to:
    plug in headphones
    connect the iPod to an amplifier and speakers (from the headphone socket)
    connect it to an iPod Dock cable and plug that into an amplifier
    Place the iPod into the Dock on something that has a Dock connector and amplifier built in.

  • Tethering doesn't allow download of updates to the iphone itself??

    I purchased the iphone4 and tethering to replace my land line phone and the internet access that I previously paid for. I have twice tried to download updates to the iphone itself only to have the iphone lock up. I then had to go to a place with wifi with my computer to restore the iphone4 and download the update to the iphone.
    Has anyone else had this issue? I had hoped that the iphone4 could be my only source of internet access but maybe that is not possible. Page 24 of the user's manual states that the iphone with tethering allows the iphone to be the modem for your computer. This doesn't work with downloads to the iphone?

    iPhone firmware updates are not downloaded by or to the iPhone. Firmware updates are downloaded by your computer and installed on your iPhone with iTunes only.
    Tethering should allow for downloading a firmware update with iTunes on your computer and installing the update on your iPhone which is probably not possible with tethering active.
