HT5704 I have a iphone 3G. How do I upgrade the IOS . My email no longer works and I get a message to upgrade my IO

How do I upgrade the IOS in my 3G iphone using the usb cable hooked to my computer ?

To view the version, use Settings > General > About and look down the list of details shown there; that will usually display the software version.
iOS 4.3.1 is the last version of iOS for the iPhone 3G.
To upgrade iOS (if you're not already running 4.3.1), connect your iPhone to your Mac or Windows system via the cable, launch iTunes if necessary, and follow the instructions that should appear.
If you are already running iOS 4.3.1, there is no further upgrade.
What tool or application or support forum or message is presenting the message about your mail and the upgrade?

Your iPhone can be updated to the latest firmware in an Apple Store but you would lose all the information off your phone.
If your happy to do this, may I recommend backing up to iCloud once you are on iOS 5.1.1 and then you will be able to perform future upgrades over wifi and restore your phone from your iCloud account should you ever need to in the future.
The other option might be to back your iPhone upto a friends computer without syncing and this might be the only way you could restore everything back onto your updated phone.
Also download apps to back up your contacts online so that you can restore them also after the update.
May I suggest Contacts Backup app which enables you to back up your contacts by email, Dropbox or via USB.
Hope this helps.

HT4623 The "Software Update" feature is not available in my Ipod 2nd Generation unit while the upgrade option in iTunes keeps on hanging while downloading the upgrade iOS (time out error). So, please tell me how I can upgrade the iOS.

The Settings>General>Software Update comes with iOS 5. The 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
Try disabling the computer's security software during the download and update.

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.

Once your computer has restarted start iTunes. Connect your iPad to your computer.

How do you upgrade from iOS 4 to iOS 5?

How do I upgrade from iOS 4.3.4 to at least iOS 5 or 6. I have been told to do it through iTunes but have not found the app yet. I am not real good at this sort of thing and could use any advice. I changed from ATT to Consumer Cellular service and my phone will not connect to the internet unless I upgrade to at least iOS 5.

How do I upgrade to iOS 6

Well you have to go on settings general software update then check for software if you download it and it says error try this: update it while its loading get your USB cable and plug it into your computer go on iTunes and check for software it'll take 4 hours (no kidding!) then your iPad will load and don't press set as new iPad press set from restore (because I did set as new iPad and lost everything but got it back except photos but I can restore it) hope this helps
