Device specific portions of an update.

When you update your iOS on a device does it get the whole update even if it is a part of a feature your device does not support?  IE if I update my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1 will it ignore the portions of the update that are specific to Siri.  Or does it get the whole iOS 5.1 essential telling it more than it needs to know.  I hope I have made my question clear, a yes or no answer will sefice but if one would care to elaborate I would love to read about it.  My concern is over time bogging my iPhone 4 down with unessary programming, I am a little paranoid ever since that one update bogged out my iPhone 3G.
Thank you

The update packages downloaded by different models of iPhone are not the same. You will only get the package relevant to your model without downloading update for the features your phone doesn't have.
Even if in some cases where companies do provide universal update package for different models, unnecessary content will be ignored during installation and finally deleted automatically afterwards.

    Be sure you've turned off any antivirus, spyware, malware type software. Then try [Unable to update or restore|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808]. Hopefully that will work, or you'll get more specific error messages which [this kb|http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275] can help interpret.

  • There was a problem updating InDesign CC For more information see the specific error below.  Update Failed Download error.  Press Retry to try again or contact customer support.(49)

    Posted the entire text from the error window, when trying to update, using the normal NON-TECHIE way to update any and all Adobe CC products, via the Creative Cloud updater installed when Adobe Creative Cloud subscription was purchased when first offered.
    The following occurs, ad nauseam:
    There was a problem updating InDesign CC
    For more information see the specific error below.
    Update Failed
    Download error.  Press Retry to try again or contact customer support.(49)
    Here's the crux of my frustration:
    (1) Customer Service is NOT contact-able, to receive LIVE help.
    (2) There is NO way for me to mitigate this "Download error", being a student learning InDesign, and NOT in any way capable of tweaking folders/files here and there.
    Therefore, the real question:
    Given that a significant number of subscribers are having the above referenced issue with attempting to download the current update for InDesign, WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO, in order to get our contractually paid-for updates to our legally and contractually paid-for Adobe software, specifically in my case, InDesgin's current update?
    Please, NO TECHNICAL mumbo-jumbo which most likely will cause the overwhelming majority of users, like me, to seriously corrupt their computer files, but rather an honest, straightforward "what to do" from real CS/Engineers working for Adobe, as to how to FIX this issue, period.
    ===========================================================
    UPDATE:
    Here is a way in which I think I was able to "update" my InDesign CC application:
    (1) Sign-In to your Adobe Account
    https://www.adobe.com/
    (2) Click on the MENU icon
    (3) Click on the product InDesign icon
    Your browser should display the page for Adobe InDesign CC
    https://www.adobe.com/products/indesign.html?promoid=KLXLU
    (4) Click on the Download icon,
    Your browser should now display the page to download InDesign,
    https://creative.adobe.com/products/download/indesign
    (5) a Pop-Up window should open, and display:
      Launch Application
      This link needs to be opened with an application.
    with the first option to select being the CreativeCloud(URIHandler)
    (5) Select this application and click OK.
    What happened when I followed steps (1) thorugh (5) is that:
    (a) InDesign CC(2014) was installed,
    (b) InDesign CC, updated, and then
    (c) InDesign CC(2014), also updated.
    Why this all worked, is a mystery to me.
    Looks like a separate, "new" version of InDesign, InDesign CC(2014), was installed, the existing "old" InDesign was updated, and then the newly installed Indesign CC(2014) was further updated.
    A BIT MORE, when I launched my InDesign CC app, and checked to see if there were Updates Available, there in fact was an Adobe InDesign CC 64 bit (9.2.2) update.
    I clicked on UPDATE and my "old" InDesign CC app was "successfully updated."
    FURTHER INFO:  I may have neglected to list some important info ... OS:  Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center, 64-bit
    Confused, I am able to launch BOTH of these apps, and hopefully I may use one of these versions of the InDesign CC app, to do some InDesign work.
    Will keep y'all posted!

    Since upgrading to Mavericks, I have been unable to sync devices (specifically ipad mini and iphone 4s) to my MId 2013 Imac . They wil rapidly connect and disconnect, and I'm unable to do anything with the device. This happens with both USB ports.  Any suggestions?
    MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.9.1)

    Obviously, syncing an iOS device with iTunes over USB is still supported in Mavericks. Calendar and contact syncing with iTunes is no longer supported. That has nothing to do with your problem.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.

  • Is the "Device Class Definition for Physical Interface Devices" specification implemented in Windows?

    Can I assume that Windows will be able to handle my physical interface device if I follow the "Device Class Definition for Physical Interface Devices" specification while writing the firmware?
    I'm trying to develop a device which handles rumble output from applications such as games. Applications would include e.g. racing games or simulators. I'm hesitant to just clone Xbox 360 Gamepad or Sidewinder USB reports. I'd like to correctly declare my
    device as something on its own while still making use of already implemented OS-specific drivers. The purpose of the mentioned specification is exactly that as far as I can tell. I wasn't able to find concrete information about its level of support though.
    The "USB device class drivers included in Windows" page (sorry I'm not allowed to post links yet..) seems to link to WinUSB which I'm not sure what to do with.

    Thanks for your response. Well if everything was implemented at that time and it's still available it should be fine since the specification document's last version is dated 1999. I was just hoping there would be any form of documentation whether it's
    supported and by which degree so I don't go through the trouble of figuring out how the firmware should be written according to the specification just to find out there is no OS driver implementation for it which would render my work more or less useless.
    So I suppose I'm forced to go the trial and error path?

    Such as a html file just like a dictionary.Well, the API documentation I posted a link of in reply #1 is not an explanation of how to use the Java classes. It is more a reference. When you need a thorough explanation, I recommend doing some tutorials, or buying a book.

    You cannot upgrade from v6 to v7 without purchasing iLife 08.
    Can you give more details about your crashing issue. Make of camera etc.,
    You can start with the troubleshooting basics:
    1. Repair Permissions using Disk Utility
    2. Delete the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the home / library / preferences folder. You'll need to reset your User options afterwards.
    3. Create a new account (systempreferences -> accounts), create an iPhoto library there and see if the problem is repeated. If it is, then a re-install of the app might be indicated. If it's not, then it's likely the app is okay and the problem is something in the main account.

  • Do we still have device specific APIs for MIDP2.0 phones?

    Hi everyone,
    When I was doing MIDP 1.0 coding, I know there is NokiaUI available to implement full screen canvas etc for Nokia phones
    It seems using MIDP 2.0, full screen canvas can be achieved by setFullScreenMode(true).
    My question is:
    On MIDP2.0 phones, what profile level device specific APIs are available for Nokia or any other phones?
    Could an API guru out there shed some lights here?
    Many thanks in advance,
    QM from London

    Thanks, found it:

    Can I say if there is more than 100 phones, there could be 100 device specific APIs????

  • What is the yellow portion "other" when updating your phone on itunes? What makes up that category?

    What is the yellow portion "other" when updating your phone on itunes? What makes up that category?

    anything that's not music, photos, apps, etc. anything that is not whatever is shown next to the other on the bottom of your screen. for example, if you look on your phone at settings, general, usage and click on any of the apps it will show you how much the actual app takes up and also how much documents and data it has; that documents and data portion will be counted as other. most phones that are operating normally have around 1gb of other so if you have a lot more than that you probably have a corrupt file or something. in that case search "removing other from iphone" will help you, but usually restoring is what will fix it.

  • Inserting plug-ins/effects to specific portions of track

    hey there,
    I've been using logic express 8 for a few weeks now and must say i do like it a lot. Although this one issue im not able to figure out on my own. I want to know how to insert a specific plug in to a specific portion of my audio track.
    For example....I want to insert a flanger and adjust its parameters to only a small portion of my track 1....(minute 1:30-1:35)?
    Is this possible?

    Hi,
    Logic can do this easily with Automation.
    In the arrange window click View > Automation. In the left side of the tracks you'll see buttons pop up, often with "Volume" written on it (be sure that the height of the track is large enough; you may have to zoom in a little to see them). Press-hold the button, and you'll see a "chapter" called main with a little arrow next to it. Behind that you can choose things like "Insert #1 Bypass". Now you can draw automation lines in your track, that will switch you effects on or off.
    Or you can choose ANY parameter of ANY plugin to automate.
    If you click on Help > Logic Express 8 User Manual, and go to page 605, you can find detailed info on automation.
    Kind regards,
    Jaap

    My backup is failling to restore and displays an error message: backup either corrupt or not compatible with the device. This happened after updating to the latest software IOS7

    I have the same issue and I KNOW my backup IS good. What happen is when you try to restore your phone apple says something like can I check for new updates and if you choose no, it just takes you back to the restore screen and a loop from then on.  If you dont update from you phone then when you back up you will have the 5.0.1 back up and then when you update to 5.1.1 and then try to restore the backup from 5.0.1 it say it EITHER corrupt or incompatible.. It is incompatible and its hard as **** to restore back to 5.0.1. I followed the restore to a T and still getting errors. I lost all text history and have to reset up email. All just because I wanted a 1.2 Gigs of "other" space back.
