I just updated iOS on my iPhone 5.
What a shock!! Where is the premium look and feel I bought my iPhone for?
If I wanted the lokale feel of iOS 7.0 I would have bought a much cheeper taiwanese smartphone.
Please let me know how I can return to the original look and feel of the iPhone surface I bought my phone for.You had plenty of time to look at screenshots on the internet and read various blog posts about iOS 7.

HT4623 How can I update iOS 5 on iPad 2?
I want to update iOS 5 on my iPad2 and I've read the article about it. There was written go in settings>general>software update in my ipad2 there isn't such button "Software Update" there is only "about" and "usage" so, what can I do?
If you have an iPad 1, the max iOS is 5.1.1. For newer iPads, the current iOS is 6.1.3. The Settings>General>Software Update only appears if you have iOS 5.0 or higher currently installed.

How to install iOS 6

iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623
If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily. Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update an iPad (except iPad 1) to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).
Tip 2 - If you're updating via wifi, place your iPad close to your router to preclude getting a corrupted download.

I have an older Ipod touch with 4.2.1 and cannot be updated any further, how do I install apps on it now? so far every app I have tried says I need an updated IOS. This sounds like I now have an apple product paper weight unless I want to run out and buy the latest and greatest overpriced apple product.
Are you willing to buy a newer iPod? How about the 4g @ 16gb for $199* usd or the 5g @ 32gb for $299*.

Can't update iOS 8 on my iPhone5 through iTunes on Windows 8 (error 3004, 3194). Updated host file, opened port 80, 443; turned off security system and firewall, etc. But nothing works. How to solve this problem?
Hi the_mad_movies,
It seems like this article will be the best option for addressing this issue:
Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"

I'm trying to update iOS 7 and it says I need 3.4 GB of storage to update.. I currently have on my storage 797 MB and 12,6 GB used. How much storage should it write for me to be able to update?
If your ipad has only 797 MB free and it tells you that you need 3.4 GB to update, then you need to begin deleing files, whatever it takes to free up space.
Consider...
Delete apps you don't use.
Delete videos you don't want (these take up a lot of space).
Do you have a lot of emails stored on the device?
Are there apps that store data files, like a PDF reader? If there are a lot of these, you need to delete some.
The bottom line is that you need to remove data and/or apps on your device to make more storage available.
But for videos and photos, always sync them to a computer first to archive them. -
How to update iOS 6 in IPOD 2nd
Please Help Me,
How to update iOS 6 in IPod 2nd generation , i cant any app downloadYou do not. The hardware in the 2G does not support higher than 4.2.1
To more easily find compatible apps:
iOSSearch - search the iTunes store for compatible apps.
Apple Club - filter apps by iOS version.
Starting when iOS 7 was released, Apple now allows downloading the last compatible version of some apps (iOS 4.2.1 and later only)
App Store: Downloading Older Versions of Apps on iOS - Apple Club
App Store: Install the latest compatible version of an app
You first have to download the non-compatible version on your computer. Then when you try to purchase the version on your iPod you will be offered a compatible version if one exists. -

How do I update IOS for my iPad2 wirenessly ?
It isn't possible to update from an iOS version prior to 5.0 wirelessly; it must be done from iTunes on a computer, and if possible, the one the device normally syncs with.

I updated IOS 6 in my device, it is performing worse. Consuming too much battery in a very short time. How can I "downgrade IOS version?
Downgrading isn't supported and wouldn't help. You need to fix your phone.
1. Delete and reinstall all email accounts.
2, Restore the phone in iTunes, first using a backup and if needed as a new phone.

Connect it to iTunes on a computer and check for updates as described at the bottom of that article; if an update appears, it's the latest version available for your iPod touch.
