How do I upgrade iPhone 4 with IOS 4.3.5 ?

Just got an iPhone 4 with IOS 4.3.5 . How to I upgrade to IOS 7 ? Is it possible to upgrade to IOS 6 ? Please advise how. Thanks

If you happen to have an older Mac then it may not support the newest iTunes (11.1), and as such will not support using that computer to do your iOS 7.02 update. If that is your situation and you don't want to purchase a new Computer, perhaps you have regular access (Family or Close Friends) that you would have regular and assured access to their Computer. A Windows PC or Mac will do, but it must be capable of supporting iTunes 11.1.
Putting the new iOS 7.02 on your iPhone 4 should not slow-down your iPhone. You will get some new features, but not all features available to users with Newer iPhone Models. It is always a good idea to be on the most current release for support reasons, if possible.
The important thing is that if you upgrade, you will need to have a clear plan to keep your iPhone, iTunes and iCloud (if you use it) all synced.

I agree- I apologize if I sounded skeptical and attacking. In no way did I mean it to sound that way.
I completely agree on the software-hardware combo issue- this is why apple killed off 1G and 2G devices- because newer software revisions would never ever run well if at all on such ancient devices. can you imagine running iOS 6 on an iPhone/iPod touch 1G? That would be terrible. Let alone iOS 3 runs terrible on them and now are generally rendered useless due to newer App Store requirements (most require 4.3+ now to allow apple to kill off the older devices). forcing newer software on older hardware (apple, dell, HP,... Anything electronic this definitely applies to) will almost always yield less-than-par results. The other part is apple forcing you to upgrade by means of intentially making things obsolete. all companies do that.
All of this factual info aside, the issue at hand with the 5 is not a software-hardware combo problem- those are most widely seen with the major revisions. then again, this isn't the first time apple has gotten caught up in battery drain snafus (even iOS 5 was plagued with this as well- and now there are some people desperate to roll back but can't). it basically waters it down to the point where keeping the stock software will always yield the best results even though newer versions provide better features- it all depends on whether or not the person deems the added features are worth a performance hit.
PS. I'm still at 100%- and I've been using it periodically throughout the day. your combo worked for you, but didn't for me. And may or may not work for others- As the tech world would say, mileage may vary.
PSS. What model/carrier do you have? Just wondering.

Just updated my iphone with iOS 7.0.2 and when I call or people call me, only one party can hear the other. Would you know how to fix this problem? Thanks

Hi Apple_Mom,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you've noticed issues after updating to iOS 7.0.2, you may want to first update to iOS 7.0.3 which was recently released.

After the iOS 7.0.2 update words with friends is not working for me either. When I attempt to open the app it just closes itself after a few seconds of being open. This happens every time I attempt to open it.

Since upgrading Iphone to iOS 5.1.1 it does not automatically use wifi internet when wifi is available. It has been draining my mobile data. I can only manually change settings with cellular data everytime I get home. Any other solutions?

Since upgrading Iphone to iOS 5.1.1 it does not automatically divert to my wi-fi internet when wifi is available in my home. It has been draining my mobile data I now have very high bills from my mobile carrier for high data usage. I can only manually change settings in the Network and turn cellular data on and off everytime I get home and leave the home. This is very frustrating as it wasn't a problem until the upgrade. I have spoken to a few people that this has happened to. Has anyone found this problem and does anyone have other solutions?

Please disregard this question. I'll submit a shorter and more direct question. Thanks.

Try rephrasing your question.
What does your card have to do with it and how do you complete a phone with ios 6?
What exactly are you doing, and what is the exact message you're getting?

If it is a 3GS you cannot update it to 4.3, you can only update it to iOS 6. Install the latest version of iTunes on your computer, connect the phone, click on its name on the left, then click the "Check for Updates" button on the right.
If you can't connect to your home WiFi try rebooting the router.

If it is a 3g, then it can only to 4.2.1

Memory hog since upgrading iphone to iOS 6

hi - hope someone can help. There's a huge chunk of hard drive space assigned to other since upgrading ipHONe to ios 6
I'm running Lion 10.7.5 on MacBook Pro 2.4GHz 160GB.
Yesterday I upgraded iPad to ios 6 - no probs. Then iPhone 4s. There wasn't enough space for the iphone backup so the upgrade aborted. I freed up space, but it still aborted the next time. I installed the Lion OS upgrade, used dusk utiltiy and ONYX to clean stuff up. Many restarts etc. 'Other' is now consuming 136gb of HD space and I can't find the files that are doing it.
Any ideas greatly appreciated
cheers

I had exactly the same experience with my iPhone 4 and my iPad 2.
"Other" went up to 8 or 9 GB !
I reinstalled both from scratch and then it was ok. "Other" is now 0,87 GB on my iPhone. I hope it stays this way.

When I upgraded iphone to ios 5 and all of my pics and videos are gone. I remember doing this through iTunes. Can anyone help me please?

When I upgraded iphone to ios 5 and all of my pics and videos are gone. I remember doing the upgrade through iTunes. I've looked in iPhoto and iTunes. Does anyone have any sugesstions of how I can get my pictures back?

For some reason, did you fail to use the iPhone as intended? Meaning copying the pictures and videos off the device regularly so that in the event the device is lost/stolen or simply fails, copies would exist on your computer?
You can try restoring from the backup created prior to the update, but it is strongly recommended that pictures/videos be copied off the device on a regular basis. Then any pics/vids that the user desires to keep on the device can be synced back via iTunes.

How do i sync iphone with multiple macs? and few questions

Hi
I would appreciate if anyone would help me.
1. I would like to know how to sync my iphone with different macs. I have a macbook 13 and a macbook 15 and would like to use BOTH to be able to transfer data without losing them. (address, apps, photos and music)
would like to use this feature if I were to be suddenly on a trip and a friend would like to share some of his files (audio, apps, photos..etc)
2. is it possible to use internet tethering on multiple macs or example a "spontanious" mac? (ex. if I were suddenly to use internet through usb on a friends mac while we were on a trip but it were programmed on my mac at home)
3. my internet tethering is only working on one mac which I usually use to sync everything... i tried just using tethering through usb on the other mac wihtout any sync but somehow it didnt work... usually i just plug and play and start using firefox... by automatic detection...
4. is there also a way to copy files from iphone onto a mac which would not be one of my libraries?
5. why cant i use iphone like the ipod as a disk use?
I am aware that these things are somewhat possible because i have read quiet a few artivles but they are sadly enough not so current... any help appreciated.

#1: As has been said, you can't get around it. An iPhone cannot be synched to more than one computer for any media content (it can be for contacts and calendar information, I believe).
#4: You can transfer items purchased from the iTunes Store to another computer but only if you disallow synchronization and authorize that computer to your iTunes Store account. There are third-party utilities that can transfer non-iTunes Store content.
#5: there is no disk mode in an iPhone and no way to enable one, at least not in the sense of disk mode in earlier iPods. There are third-party apps that allow some file transfer to and from an iPhone.
I can't help with tethering questions.
