How can i update my iphone from a different computer?

I dont have internet access and need to update my iphone. Can i use a friends laptop to update it without erasing contacts, notes, etc??

As long as you don't sync after updating it. You may have to connect to your computer to restore music and apps after updating.

    On the new computer, I am getting a message that my all purchases would be deleted if I sync it with new iTunes library.
    Please help with proper steps, if any.

    No, just for syncing, and backing up. I know people (sadly) who have never attached their iPhone to their computer. Not a great thing, but not unusuable, as you state.
    Not un-useable, but absolutely a basic requirement.  From the tech specs:
    Mac system requirements
    Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
    Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    iTunes 10.1 or later (free download fromwww.itunes.com/download)
    iTunes Store account
    Internet access
    Windows system requirements
    PC with USB 2.0 port
    Windows 7; Windows Vista; or Windows XP Home or Professional with Service Pack 3 or later
    iTunes 10.1 or later (free download fromwww.itunes.com/download)
    iTunes Store account
    Internet access"

    These are the REQUIREMENTS to use the iphone as it is designed and intended.
    You can use it without a computer, but you cannot use it as designed and intended.

  • How can I update my iPhone from 4.3.5 to 5.0.1 (iTunes 10.5.2 not recognizing device)?

    iTunes (10.5.2) won't recognize my iPhone even after I've gone through all the steps recommended by Apple Support (restarted iPhone, restarted computer, used different USB port, updated iTunes, removed  and reinstalled Apple Mobile Device Service). I think it is because it has been awhile since I last connected my iPhone to my computer and it has an older iOS version (4.3.5). Is there anyway for me to get around this to install the newest iOS (5.0.1 or 5.1) without using iTunes?

    You might also want to try a different USB sync cord if your phone isn't being recognized by Windows at all.

  • How can I restore my iPhone from a different backup?

    Okay I don't know if this is possible, but it would really make my life easier if someone knew how to do this.
    My old iPhone was named Joe's iPhone. It had all my contacts, pics, apps, everything. That phone broke and my Mom gave me her old iPhone, both are 3g. So on my computer I obviously had sync'd my old phone (Joe's iPhone) and backed it up. Can I restore my Moms phone and boot it up with my old backup so I'll have all my contacts? I've tried restoring it, but I also backed up my Mom's phone on my computer so whenever I restore it, it just comes back with all her contacts. I want to chose to restore from my old phone backup.
    Is this possible? Can anyone walk me through doing that?

    Hi Joe,
    Just right-click on the iPhone(on the left side of iTunes, under Devices) and then choose Restore from Backup. Then choose the backup that has the date and name of your previous phone.

  • HT4623 How can I update my iphone 4 from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 6.1.4 only.  I am not looking for iOS 7 right now.  Please suggest the update process?

    Hi Team,
    I have iphone4 16GB with iOS 5.1.1.  While using the phone, few times the phone is automatically going to shutdown and getting call disconnected.  Some times, it happens more frequently in a day, sometimes not. 
    and also, How can I update my iphone 4 from iOS 5.1.1 to iOS 6.1.4 only.  I am not looking for iOS 7 right now.  Please suggest the update process?

    You cannot. You can only upgrade to the currently supported version of the iOS which, at this time is iOS 7.0.2.

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported, and likely has caused the problems you are experiencing.
    You'll need to go elsewhere for support.

  • How can I update my iPhone 3gs to iOS4, after iOS5 came out?

    I am still running iOS 3 (1.3) on my iPhone 3GS and I'm happy with it - but all the new apps requires iOS4 and now I'm sick of this. I want iOS4 (and not iOS5, cause it will drain my battery as far as I've understood).
    How can I update my iPhone 3GS in a normal way to iOS4, through iTunes or another easy way? I have never jailbreaked an iPhone so I don't know too much about "backdoors" into my iPhone.

    The only Firmware in the iOS 4 series that Apple is still signing for the iPhone 3GS is 4.1. So you could restore  to 4.1. You will have to download the 4.1 IPSW from Apple, and then install it with iTunes, Option Click Mac or Shift Click Windoz, on the Restore Button and then select the 4.1 IPSW on your computer. The current iTunes may give meaningless Errors, I doubt because you are Upgrading. But if Error Message is given you will have to search the Web for ways to Exit Recovery.

  • Hi frnds, i am using iphone 3gs, i want to know how can i update my iphone to ios 4.3.3

    hi frnds, i am using iphone 3gs, i want to know how can i update my iphone to ios 4.3.3 or any other ios.

    Please note the iPhone 3G can not be upgraded beyond 4.2.1.
    If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?i changed my apple id and password but how can i update my iphone with the new apple id and password?

    You have to delete the old account, provide the password for the ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with the ID you wish to use.  This deletes the account and your iCloud data from your device, but not from iCloud.  Provided you are signing back into the same account, your iCloud data will reappear on your device when you sign back in.
    To avoid losing photo stream photos that are not in your camera roll, save them to your camera roll before deleting the account (open your my photo stream album, tap Select, tap the photos, tap the share icon -- box with upward facing arrow, then tap Save to Camera Roll).
