An O/S update is done geographically, if your friend lives in same area you do is not likely it was sent to her and not you.
No, they're not, update rollouts are completely random, though some have speculated that it is done based on your MEIN.  To update based on area would defeat the purpose of doing a staggered rollout, imagine the strain on the network in that area if everybody with the same phone was all of a sudden trying to download and install an update.  Besides, I've sifted through enough "I'm in ........., no update here" threads to see that there is no rhyme or reason to how these things happen.

  • I just installed the latest version of iTunes to get the updates and new software on my iPod but it hasn't updated my iPod or put any of the new software on there either.  How to I get the software to sync onto my iPod?

    Are you sure it's not 6.1.6?  If it is, that is the latest iOS version that will work on a 4th generation iPod Touch.  Later versions require a 5G iPod which has twice as much RAM.

    Try the reset first, or Restore your iPhone from backup.

    Hi there,
    Wondering if you might know?  I don't have enough space to update the new software on iPad.  So my facetime isn't working anymore, this is prob why. Seems I have to delete like all the games/apps we have to do so.  Will I lose the progress data/levels in the games? But how do I back up the games data?
    Please help.  Scared to delete them to update and then not have the space to restore them and if I get them again will the levels/progress be gone?
    Thanks Rachel

    Connect your device to iTunes and do the update through iTunes. Using a computer takes much less space on your device than doing the update on your device.

  • Since updating the new software on my iphone5 I cannot sign in to FaceTime. It advises me to check my internet connection which is working ok. Please can someone advise me.

    Since updating the new software on my iphone5 I cannot sign in to FaceTime. It advises me to check my internet connection which is working ok. Please can someone advise me.

    Hey jeanettefromiw,
    Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues signing into FaceTime on your iPhone 5. The following resources should assist you in troubleshooting these issues:
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
    If you see "Could not sign in, please check your network connection and try again" when signing in to your Apple ID
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Verify that you have a data connection by going to www.apple.com in Safari. You can complete Apple ID activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. If you need help connecting to Wi-Fi, follow these steps.
    If you're using Wi-Fi, make sure that your local Wi-Fi network is using the recommended Wi-Fi settings.
    Sign in to your account and ensure that the primary email address and alternate e-mail addresses have been verified. If verification is pending, follow the instructions in the email Apple sent to that email address to complete verification. Or remove the e-mail addresses from the account.
    If your Apple ID isn't an email address, you can change it. The Apple ID that you're using to activate FaceTime or iMessage must be an email address. Find more information on how to change your Apple ID.
    Tap Settings > General > Date & Time. Make sure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. If Set Automatically is on but the wrong time zone appears, turn Set Automatically off and choose the correct time zone, date, and time.
    Enable iMessage and FaceTime while connected to a different Wi-Fi network (in a different location) if a cellular data connection is not available.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    I Don't know if I can turn it of or do I just leave it and take it to service?
    I'd appreciate some advice!

    Same thing happened here ~ tech guy at a local authorized Apple repair store said it had something to do with improper backup from which the restore would be made. Still have a phone that asks to be connected to Itunes but won't do anything else . . . frustrated.

    Regards
    Srinivas

    Hi,
    a) The procedure is as follows:
    1. Create Depreciation area via OADB.                                                                               
    2. Activate Depreciation area via OAYZ.                                                                               
    3. Automatic opening of new depreciation are via AFBN and program  
       RAFABNEW :                                                                               
    3.1     Indicator: Leave values initial = not ticked.           
               Do not set this indicator if you want the system        
               to copy the values from depreciation area 01.                                                                               
    3.2     Indicator: Leave values initial = ticked.               
               Set this indicator if you want to open the newly created
               depreciation area without any values i.e. blank.                                                                               
    4. Recalculate depreciation via AFAR and program RAAFAR00.   
    b) Helpful notes:

    c) A documenttation you find if you enter RAFABNEW in SE38 and press the butto "documentation"

  • Why did I lose all my Verizon ring tones after updating to new software?

    Why did. I lose all my Verizon ring tones after updating to new software?  Always worked before, now they are gone!  Contacted Verizon, who could not explain. 

    I was having a similar problem and here's what solved it for me: Under Settings>Notes the default account was changed from iCloud to another account for no apparent reason when I upgraded to iOS 7.  When I changed it back to iCloud, my notes started appearing on all devices again.  You might also want to check the Accounts setting under the Notes app to make sure All Notes is checked to retreive notes from all accounts.  Similarly, Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars has a default account that should match as well.  Good luck.
