How do you upgrade from ios 4.0.1 to 4.0.3?

I cannot download any apps, it says I need to upgrade to IOS 4.0.3.  I have a iPhone 4. Thanks.

You can update to the current version (which is the only version that is 'signed' by Apple) i.e. 5.1.1
Connect the phone to your computer's iTunes and copy any purchases off the phone to your computer via File > Transfer Purchases. You may also want to copy photos and any important documents off the phone 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 phone by right-clicking the iPhone 'Device' on the left-hand side of iTunes and selecting 'Backup'.
Then start the update by selecting the iPhone on the left-hand side of iTunes, and on the Summary tab on the right-hand side clicking the Check For Updates button

  • 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.

    Did you click on the link that Allan Eckert provided and follow the instructions?

  • How do I upgrade from ios 5 to ios 7 on an ipad

    How do I upgrade from ios 5 to ios 7 on my ipad?

    Hi,
    If you have an original iPad then iOS 5.1.1 is the limit due to it not having enough RAM (Memory). All others should get iOS 7.0.3.
    This is accessible in Settings -> General -> Software Update.
    Hope this helps!

  • How do you upgrade from Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Lion?

    How do you upgrade from Mac OS x 10.6.8 to Lion?

    First check to be sure your hardware meets the hardware requirements for Lion.
    Backup your data. I suggest a bootable clone as the way to go.
    Then open App Store and purchase and download the Lion installer.
    Then install Lion.

  • How can you upgrade from OS 10.4

    How can you upgrade from MAC 10.4.4

    Backup your computer.
    Buy Snow Leopard.
    Boot from Snow Leopard DVD.
    Erase the hard drive.
    Install Snow Leopard.
    To get Snow Leopard:
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    To upgrade further see:
    Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mountain Lion to Mavericks
    To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
                 Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
    Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

  • How do you upgrade from CD-1 4th to 5th edition in CiscoWorks 2k?

    Cisco.com has 3rd to 5th edition migration tools, but none for 4 to 5.
    How is this done? What tool? Where obtained? What URL?
    Thanks!!

    You don't need any kind of migration tools for upgrading from 4th to 5th Ed. You can directly upgrade from 4th to 5th Ed.
    Refer to the section "Performing an Upgrade Installation->Upgrading from CD One, 4th Edition" in the Install Guide of 5th Ed for the procedure:

  • How do you upgrade from CS 5.5 Creative Suite to CS6?

    I heard there's a way to upgrade from CS 5.5 to CS 6, and am wondering how.
    Thank You!

    There was a deal for a free upgrade back in mid '12, I think. I didn't act on it as I was super busy and/or traveling. Anyway, it's over now. I just bought CS6 today myself. I ordered the box vs download as I was experiencing long times and errors trying to get the .dmg for CS5.5 so I could install on my new machine. It's $375 US for CS6 if you own 5.5. Just go to their product page.

  • How can you downgrade from ios 7.1.2 to 6.1.3

    hello everyone can you please help me i need to downgrade from ios 7.1.2 to ios6.1.3 because my ipad dosent work realy well with it can you plese help me  

    Downgrading isn't possible. iTunes won't install iOS versions older than the latest compatible release, and if one's somehow installed anyway, Apple's servers won't activate the device afterwards.

  • How do I upgrade from iOS 4.3 version

    I recently purchased an I phone 3 to use as basically an Ipod. I want to upgrade the iOS version to 5 so I can download some more apps. How do I go about doing that? When I plug it in iTunes tells me I have the latest possible version, I know this is not true. I have another Iphone 3 that is running iOS 5.

    An iPhone 3G can't be updated past 4.2.1. An iPhone 3GS can be updated to 6.1.6.

  • How do I upgrade from iOS 4 to iOS 7

    I need help upgrading my iPad I connected it and how does it go to the upgrade screen? I also downloaded iTunes

    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.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4972
    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • How do I upgrade from iOS 4 to new iOS without losing my app data

    Hi, I am still on iOS 4, and I understand that I need to erase my iPad before upgrading. But I don't want to lose the game data stored locally, particularly the candy crush. :) is there a way to preserve those data while upgrading?

    I agree with Meg.
    If you drill down in that HT4972 article you provided, you will eventually wind up on the http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 article which says in part (under iTunes will back up the following information):
    App Store Application data including in-app purchases (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder).
    You should be fine.
    UPDATE - Here are drill down details from HT4972:
    Go to
    If you are attempting to update using a Mac or PC with which you normally sync
    Go to  Back up your device by syncing it with your Mac or PC first
    Go to iOS device backups preserve your settings, the Camera Roll (or Saved Pictures), and other important data. Learn more about what is stored in a backup.
