How many updates can be released before I can no longer update??

I am on iOS 6.1.3 and do not want to update to iOS 7 because I don't like it. My friend has an iPod touch 4, he has obviously missed a few updates and now he can no longer update and he is stuck on iOS 3.1.1. I was wondering how many updates must be released before I can't update my iPad any more. I will eventually update to iOS 7 but I don't want to wait to long and then I can't update at all!!! So does anyone know how many updates I can miss??

Your frlend can always update the latest version supported by their device, which is iOS 6.1.3. What they can't do is update to anything before that.
The same is true of your iPad. You will always be able to update to the latest version (currently iOS 7.0.3) but not anything before that. What that means is that your choice is to stay with iOS 6.1.3 or update to the current version.

  • How Many Points Do I Need Before I Can Report Abuse?

    I noticed a thread was removed yesterday because it mentioned a bad JB had caused issues and we all know that hacking Apple iPhones and iPads can't be discussed here, however I was about to explain to this person that they should restore their phone to original factory condition using iTunes and forget about the JB when it was yanked.
    When I posted a complaint my thread got yanked presumably simply because it mentioned the dreaded JB word.
    I wouldn't mind so much but doing a forums search using that word produces at least 2 pages of threads that have been left intact, many of them in Enterprise and stretching back over quite a long period of time, so I feel that someone is acting in rather an arbitrary manner and not reading the posts before yanking them.
    I shall await the yanking of this thread but I tell you, as a veteran poster in many security-related forums, I do know the meaning of the expression acceptable behaviour.

    I think it's more a question of way too little time. This is a VERY busy forum. The Hosts can't possibly read every post as well as deal with all the maintenance, answer questions. I don't know if you saw my answer to you in your other thread. Several Hosts have said that moderation is more of an art than a science. They try to balance a the TOU against a lively exchange of ideas (and sometimes, it gets very lively!). They are also human. Sometimes one host will have a different take on a post than another. Sometimes, deaicions are changed and threads get reinstated.
    Whether threads are left open also depends on timing. I don't spend much time in the Mac forums these days nut I'd bet that the Hosts are being a bit more lenient about somethings because of the recent release of Lion. They tend to allow posts that are a bit closer to rants when there has been a big release because, well, some people are freaking out.
    It's never going to be completely consistent. However, every Host I've ever interacted with has seemed to be trying very hard to make this a useful, and yes, even fun place.
    If you have a concern, post it here and it will get sorted out.
    Best of luck.
    I moderate McAfee and Neosmart forums, so I know what you mean.
    Thanks.

  • How many devices do you test before releasing your iphone app

    Hi,
    Just want to get an idea about how many devices do you test before releasing your iphone app. I am currently developing on iphone 2.5G. Do I need to test my app on iphone 3G and ipod touch? Are there any difference? My app does not depends on network speed.
    thanks,
    ff

    It's not a bad idea to test on whatever you can but it's not necessarily required. You do have to make sure you're not doing anything that can't be done on all devices. (i.e. access camera in Touch, assume GPS, etc)

  • WMS :  How to Process Sales Order Released before Turning on WMS

    Hello Gurus,
    How to process sales orders released before WMS enable flag is turned on in the  new WMS enviournment in Oracle 11.5.10 ?

    Helios,
    Thanks for the document.
    I m looking for how to perform Pick confirm transactions for already printed Pick slips before WMS enabled flag is turn on for the org.
    One option is to close all the deliveries  but if there is no on hand at that point the they will remain option.
    Other option is to Back order those deliveries and re release them post wms enable flag is turned on... The only issue i see here is that if there are more new orders for one of the items  and the orders are released then which orders will get allocated/reserved if there is limited on hand quantity to statisfy the SO need.
    Let me know if you can think off some alternative solution.
    Apprecite help !!
    Thanks,
    Sam

  • Report execute time nd how many records will be returned before hitting the "run" option?

    Post Author: Prasad15
    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    Is there any way to know how long the report executes and how many records will be returned before hitting the "run" option?
    Regards
    Prasad

    To know if the report is going to return more than 10,000 records, you first have to run the query with a 'select count(1) from ... where ...' (with the same from and where clauses as you normal query). Since this takes about the same time as runnng your report, I wonder if you really gain anything (although formatting may take some time too).
    You may simplify the select count(1) query by omitting all the lookup tables that are only needed for formatting. That way your query may run a lot faster. You can put this in your after parameter form trigger.

    You can't update to 4.3 because you have a CDMA phone. 4.2.10 is the latest version for the Verizon phone.

  • Why my spotlight can not find my personal files ? It can find them before but can not find them now,I want to know why?

    why my spotlight can not find my personal files ? It can find them before but can not find them now,I want to know why?

    From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Spotlight ▹ Privacy
    The list of items excluded from Spotlight indexing is shown (it may be empty.) Click the plus (“+”) icon to add an item to the list. Select your boot volume (under DEVICES) and add it to the list. Then remove it from the list by selecting it and clicking the minus (“-“) icon.
    Spotlight will rebuild the index. If you try to do a Spotlight search now from the magnifying-glass icon in the top right corner of the display, a pulsing dot will appear in the icon. When the dot disappears, the indexing is complete.

  • How can I find out how many gb something will be before I download it?

    On the new software update I'm not able to see how many gb something is before downloading it

    Tom,
    I appreciate your help.  Does the Apple I-Book App have the ability to install e-books from other sources such as Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, and Sony?  If I can read the other sources products on the apple i-book platform that would be just as good.
    Thanks in Advance.

  • How many errors in data file before data load is aborted?

    Is there a limit to how many incorrect records you can have when loading a free form file before Essbase aborts the load process?
    I am trying to export a complete database to another database where the cost center level detail is removed, i.e. all parents exist (and data has been exported using All Levels).
    Thanks

    I have done it this way in the past:
    1-Create a dummy scenario.
    2-Write a calc script to copy data to that scenario, but only fix on the blocks you want to extract.
    3-Delete all other scenarios, thus leaving ONLY the data you copied to your dummy scenario.
    4-Rename the dummy scenario to the scenario name you need.
    5-Export the full database to a file.
    6-Load the export into your destination database.
    This might work but not knowing your exact source and target hierarchies, this may not work.....

  • How many broken pixels are required before apple fixes my screen?

    My macbook pro with retina is under a year old and seems to have 4 broken pixels. I do not understand how this happened as I am very careful with it. How many pixels need to be broken before apple takes my laptop and fixes it? Also if they take my computer, how long will it be gone for and do I get some kind of replacement?

    It can take overnight to a little over a week, depending on the Store you go to and whether parts are immediately available. You do not get a "loaner". If a repair is arranged, you may be able to defer the repair until parts are available.
    It depends on how they are stuck (white, black, or color) and how close together they are. There are complex formulas used in the evaluation.
    Your appointment at the genius Bar at an Apple Store for an evaluation is FREE, in warranty or out. Apple Authorized Service Providers may have different policies.

  • HT5622 How many family members, computers, iPods,iPad,IDs can you have on one iTunes account?

    I'm just trying to sort out some iTunes I'd issues.  Does anyone know how many total iPad iPods can be used with one Apple ID?  Or how many apple  IDs your can have with one iTunes account? Or does each person need there own Apple ID or Apple account? Thanks

    You can't have multiple IDs on one account, but you can use multiple IDs for different purposes on the same device.
    Just use the one AppleID for iTunes and the AppStore so you can all share your music and app purchases. Then each person should have their own individual AppleID with associated iCloud account for mail, contacts, calendars, iMessage and FaceTime.
    You don't have to use the same AppleID for all services.
