How can I save downloaded iOS system updates when using multiple iPhones

I have multiple iPhones, and every time I want to update them, I have to wait forever for these downloads to transfer. The update downloads, but is not saved so that I can use it for another iPhone, requiring me to download the same file yet again, and again, and again, wasting my time. Any ideas or is this a lost cause?

Not sure about a Mac, but on Windows it does save the file to a location in the users profile area and if the phones are identical (eg: both 3GS) I have been able to copy the file to the location in the other users profile and have it use it to update.

    How can i download ios 7.1 without using my iphone and itunes

    If you don't use your phone and you don't use iTunes, what are you expecting to use? Your options to update your device are Over The Air through Settings>General>Software Update or by connecting the device to iTunes and updating.
    Best of luck.

    You have 10.6 on that machine, I suggest you stick with it for performance, third party hardware and software reasons as long as possible.
    Consider 10.8 (not 10.7) when it's released, because 10.7 and 10.8 will require a new investment in software and newer third party hardware as it requires newer drivers the old machines won't have. (forced upgrade because of software, really nice of them)

    Far as your Safari problem do these things until it's resolved:
    1: Software Update fully under the Apple menu.
    2: Check the status of your plug-ins and update (works for all browsers) also install Firefox and see if your problems continue. You should always have at least two browsers on the machine just in case one fails.

    Thanks and Regards

    You can't delete an account, you can only stop using it.  If you're getting that error message you won't be able to create a new account on your device.  Your only options are to re-use one of the accounts previously created, or create a new account on a different iOS device or Mac (running OS X Lion or higher), if you have one.

  • How can I cancel the iOS software update?

    For some reason, iOS 6 has decided to download on my iPod Touch through WiFi. I didn't request it, nothing is set to automatically update in the Touch settings, or iTunes. It seemed to start downloading when I  synced the Touch. I've disconnected the Touch from WiFi temporarily. How can I cancel the download, or will there be an option when it's done downloading to cancel the install?
    Thanks for any help...

    I had the SAME problem & it was incredibly frustrating.  Having WiFi disabled for days caused me to eat up A LOT of my data plan.  It is total BS that there is no way to cancel an OTA download.  And it is total BS that no one can get ANY help on this issue.  There should be a way to cancel or at least downgrade if you don't like the newest iOS. 
    So, since Apple won't let you downgrade if you went ahead & installed it, and Apple won't help AT ALL if you don't want iOS 6, I had to figure it out myself.  Here's what I did....
    The stupid iOS 6 update that nobody wants needs a certain amount of free space in order to download & install.  I had started the download & disabled WiFi like you did, so the download was paused.  While it was paused, I set my video camera to record & it sat there & recorded for like 2.5 hours (ugh) before it finally took up all the space on my phone.  Then, I went back in & enabled WiFi & checked the piece of junk iOS 6 install & it now said it couldn't download b/c there wasn't enough space. 
    I figured this solution still s ucks b/c now I can't download any apps or take any more pics or vids.  About 30 minutes later, though, I went back to the horrible iOS 6 download & a message popped up saying there wasn't enough space.  When I hit "OK" or whatever to clear the message, the screen had reset & gone back to the "download & install" button.  FINALLY I was able to stop the download & installation of iOS 6.  THANK GOD.  I want nothing to do with it, and there is NO WAY Apple is taking my Google Maps or YouTube.  

  • How can I save more than two tabs when closing Mozilla, so as when I open Mozilla the tabs appear again?

    In the previous edition of Mozilla, when many tabs in one window were opened, at the closing of the window a message used to appear, asking whether you would like to save tabs in use or not, so as at the next opening of Mozilla, the saved tabs would appear again. How can this be achieved in Mozilla 4.

    Firefox 4 automatically saves your tabs and windows when you exit to restore them just click the Firefox button>History menu>Restore Previous Session and it will open your previous tabs and windows in addition to your current tabs and windows.

  • How Can I change the default system editor to use it on Eclipse?

    Hi, I want to know something. In Eclipse, when I do the following with a file: Open With -> System Editor, GVIM is opened, and I would want to change this behaviour to another editor.
    How Can I perform this?
    Greetings

    It doesn't work to eclipse... I don't know why, always gvim is opened... If I uninstall gvim, eclipse give me an error telling to me that was impossible to open the system editor.
    The variables mentioned above initially were empty (without content).
    Any more ideas?
    Greetings
    I'm pretty sure those ENV variables are only used for terminal / console operations, not GUI functionality. I think the confusing issue here, perhaps, was that Eclipse calls the option 'system editor.'
    What it is referring to, instead, is the application set in your file manager for opening a particular file type. For me, it opens Scite, as I have Scite set in Nautilus to open most 'text' types. However, I can change the behavior to open Komodo Edit for *.py files by simply right clicking on any *.py file, selecting 'Properties' and setting the appropriate editor in the 'Open with' tab. Now *.py files open in Komodo in any circumstance, including selecting 'Open wirh > system editor' in Eclipse.
    The procedure will be slightly different depending on your DE / file manager.

  • How can you save data to a spreadsheet and use different worksheets in the spreadsheet?

    I am trying to save data to a spreadsheet.
    Each set of test data needs to be saved under a different worksheet. Is this possible and how can I do it?

    As the example that Dennis pointed out, this can be done using activeX. In addition to that example I have another that demonstrates how to create a new workbook with multiple worksheets and save data to each of them. I hope that between the two you can get an idea of what to do.

  • How can I get my iPod to update when it says the server cannot be connected?

    Whenever I try to update my iPod it says, "The iPod software update server could not be contacted. Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later." It does this every time. How can I get it to update? Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

    Update Server
    Try:
    - Powering off and then back on your router.
    - iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    - Change the DNS to either Google's or Open DNS servers
    Public DNS — Google Developers
    OpenDNS IP Addresses
    - For one user uninstalling/reinstalling iTunes resolved the problem
    - Try on another computer/network
    - Wait if it is an Apple problem

  • How can i control which iView gets updated when a nav node gets clicked?

    Hello,
    Following setting: the content area of the desktop inner page inside the default frameworkpage usually consist of just one iView.
    But what happens when there are 3 iViews inside? How do i have to call the pageloader which of the 3 iViews should get updated when a nav node of the detailed navigation is clicked?
    Thanx

    Hi
    Since you will be using the Merger Id property, they will be linked to a single link in navigational area.
    Refreshing a page / clicking the link in navigation Pane will result in refreshing of all the iViews.

  • How can I save captured clips to hard disk using the actual video recorded date, not the date I transferred it?

    When using Batch capture in AP5.5, the clips are saved to hard disk using the capture date as the Created Date and Modified Date.  How do I configure Premier to use the actual clips recorded date (Meta Data Basic/Date Created) so that I can view them in Windows folders and other applications based on the date the video was recorded, not when I imported it.

    AFAIK, there's no way to do that with Premiere Pro.  You can probably find a utility on the Internet that will change the dates for you after the fact. 
    Cheers,

  • In MIRO, how can I get a credit to balance when using dr/cr lines?

    When processing a logistics invoice verification document via MIRO, we're trying to post a credit memo against a purchase order with muliple lines (one return, and on non-return line).  The value of the return line is greater, and the invoice is billing for receipts/returns on mulitple lines on the PO (it has a credit amount for the entire return to be posted against the return line, and a restocking fee to be posted against a text based PO line). 
    In MIRO, I have selected credit memo and am posting a credit for a gross amount of $550 in the header.  The return line I'm trying to post against is for $575, and the non-return line for the restocking fee is for $25.  However, when I'm posting against both, the system is indicating that I'm out of balance by $50.  It appears that it's not calculating the $25 as a credit.  I've tried looking at documents around posting against returns and posting credits, but haven't seen anything that addresses this scenario.  I've also tried using negative amounts, but SAP does not accept these.  We're currently using SAP ECC 6.0.  How can I get this to balance?

    Only Apple Account Security could help at this point. You can try calling Apple Support in Canada - you'll have to find one of the several ways, such as Skype, to call an 800 number from outside of the relevant country - and ask for Account Security and see if they can help. Or you can find a friend who speaks Chinese and ask them to help you talk to Apple Support in China. There are really no other options that I know of.
    Note, by the way, that these are user-to-user support forums. You aren't speaking with Apple when you post here.
