You must update via iTunes. Until you install iOS 5 there is no automatic update in Settings.

How do i update the software on an iPhone 4
i am unsure how to update my iphone 4, please help
@livcincotta,
There are numerous ways to conduct an update on your iPhone, these include but are not limited to iTunes and Software Update in settings on your phone.
iTunes - plug your phone into your Mac or PC and launch iTunes, select the phone from the either the side bar or the top of the iTunes window and on the summary / info page you have the option there to check for a software update.
iPhone - if connected to WiFi goto settings : software update and the phone will conduct a check and if required will give you the option to download and then install the update, your phone will need to plugged into a power outlet whilst this occurs.
I hope this has helped in the resolution of your issue -
I tried to update the software for my iPhone 4S, 16 GB to the most recent version (8.1?). I don't know what I was updating from, because I can't access that, but it was whatever was installed on it (I got it about a year ago, so probably 6.something).
It froze, and now won't turn off, or on, or sync with my macbook plus, which is what I have always sync'd it to. (I backed it up and sync'd it right before I tried to update the software.)
Since it originally froze almost 3 hours ago, it shows a white screen with the apple on it and a line underneath. When I try to sync with my laptop, it says it needs me to enter a passcode on the phone, which I can't enter because the screen is frozen. So I'm unable to access the iPhone portion of iTunes.
I have tried to turn it off, with no luck. I have tried rebooting my laptop and syncing, but I still get the same result.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
I really wanted to wait to update the software, but I was having internet connectivity issues for the past 3 weeks, and Sprint suggested updating the phone's software.
Thanks in advance for your help!Hi NWL1,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

I have a 2002 imac, how do i update the software?
i have a 2002 imac, how do i update the software? i have the original software and it wont let me update itunes! help!!
Apple seldom leaves of old versions of iTunes compatible with a 12-year old computer on the web site. What OSX version is currently on the iMac?
If you need a newer version of itunes to support an iPad, iPod, or iPhone, your computer is too old. Full support for Apple iDevices requires Mac OS 10.6.8; a 2002 iMac is limited to no higher than 10.4.11, or maybe 10.5.8 with a hack. Still, not enough for working with current mobile devices. -
How do I update the software on my Airport Express?
Hello everyone,
I have an Airport Extreme base station acting as WDS and an Airport Express station. I recently upgraded the security on the Airport Extreme base station from 128-WEP to WPA (Personal), but I don't know whether I have to do something to the Airport Express base station. It's green light is on. Do I need to do something? Also, how do I update the software in the Express? Whenever I open the Airport Admin Utility, the only thing that comes up on a scan is my Extreme base station. Any advice would be most appreciated.yes you need to update your Airpost Express. I just went through this last week with two of my Airport Expresses. I updated my Base and my Remote's light was green but was unable to view it in Airport Admin Utility. So this is what I ended up doing and it works great.
First bring the Airport Express you are working on in the same room as your computer......just the ease of seeing what is going on with the Airport Express. Next you need to reset it.....take a paper clip and push in the little button next to the Audio port and hold in 10 seconds. Then unplug the unit wait 10 seconds and plug it back in. wait about 3 minutes and then you will need to use Airport Set Up Assistant. You will need to make sure you have WPA Personal on your Airport Express too.
don't forget to make sure you have the update firmware too.

I hope this helps.....

How do i update the software on my ipod touch? i went to settings, then general, but theres no option called software updates.
You needing to be running iOS 5 or later in order to do a Software Update from the device. To run iOS 5 you need a 3G or 4G iPod Touch. So if you really have a 4G iPod Touch, connect it to iTunes and you should be prompted about an update to its version of iOS.
