How to update my software to 4.3 ios from 4.2.1
ive had an iphone 3g given to me by a friend, ive tried to downlaod apps like facebook but it says i must update the software to IOS 4.3, i have gone through the general settings and it doesnt give me the option to update it, i have also tried on itunes (even updated my itunes to the latest version) and it says my phone is up to date with the 4.2.1 version, but still wont let me sync any apps i have downloaded, ive also restored the phone back to factory settings and it still wont update, are there any other ways?
Sorry, but you can't. iOS 4.2.1 is the last version of iOS your iPhone 3G will run. If you need to run apps that require a newer version of iOS, you'll need a newer iPhone.
Regards.

Call 1-800-MY-APPLE (or your county's support number). Apple is selling single user disks for $19 or 5-user family disks for $29. If you think you will another copy of SL in the future, buy the $29 family pack before Amazon at $100+ becomes your only source.

Many thanks.Update it from iTunes on a computer as described at the bottom of this article; devices running an iOS version prior to 5.0 can't be updated straight from the device. It will be updated to the newest iOS version supported by the device’s hardware.

If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect to your computer & click on the "Update your device using iTunes".
Tip - You may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
