I have apple 4s and the operating system is iOS 5.1.1 got the update message of iOS 6. if update the iOS 6, other functions will work unchanging?
What other functions?
There have been some wifi related issues reported with the 4S being updated to IOS 6. There is no turning back once you update so keep that in mind.
I recommend updating via iTunes so that you make a backup of all your data. You may want to make an iCloud backup as well.
Other than that, I don't understand what other functions you are concerned about? -
attempting to update operating system on macbook pro with osx10.4.11.
how is this accomplished and what is the cost ? is the worth the expense give the age of unit?Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
and in the UK:
http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
To use iCloud you have to upgrade at least to Lion, but some functions are only available in Mountain Lion:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard. -
HT4623 Can't update Operating System
I need to update operating systems but the option is not in my General menu. Any idea what I should do?
The Settings > General > Software Update option only appears when you have iOS 5+ installed, if you have iOS 4 then you will need to do the update via your computer's iTunes.
Connect the iPad to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the iPad to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases (File > Devices > Transfer Purchases on iTunes 11). You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the iPad as well e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc - they should be included in the backup, but it's best to have a copy of them outside of the backup just in case. You can then force a backup of the iPad by right-clicking the iPad 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPad on the left-hand side of iTunes (on iTunes 11 you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S on a Mac, control-S on a PC), and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

How do I update my 3GS to iOS 5?
How do I update my 3GS to iOS 5? I've tried the update on iTunes but it says my phone is up-to-date with version 4.2.1
That suggests you have an iPhone 3G, not a 3GS, which can't run an iOS version newer than 4.2.1. If you're sure you're using an iPhone 3GS, ensure that iTunes is up to date.

How do I update my system to the 10.7.2
How do I update my system to the 10.7.2
If you have 10.6.8, and your Mac meets the requirements, you can use "App Store" from your Dock to purchase the appropriate version of 10.7.
If you are running:
Office or Word 2004,
AppleWorks,
Quicken 2007,
Eudora 6,
Adobe CS2 (Photoshop),
FileMaker 6,
or dozens of other PowerMacintosh Applications, these will not work after you update.
The ideal way to do the update is to install 10.7 on a brand new drive, and keep your 10.6.8 as a backup. That may not be realistic for many users. -
