HT1222 Updating an iphone 4
I have an iphone 4 that has NEVER been updated. Can anyone tell me how to get started? I am unable to download new apps because my phone is operating on an old system.
If it's never been updated, I assume it's also never been plugged into a computer running iTunes to sync it or back it up. Is that correct?

Not if you ensure that your device is backed up to iCloud or back up with iTunes before updating:

Why did I loose my contacts when I updated by iphone with 5.0?
A number of reasons can be addressed. Did you sync your contacts over to the supported application on the computer, or into iCloud? If so, then just sync them back.
Not all contact information is includded in the backup. If you have iCloud turned on, then turn it off and back on again. See if that helps. -
HT1222 does my photos and contacts list erase when i update my iPhone ??
does my photos and contacts lists erase when i update my iphone (ios update)
Normally they do not -- but I assume that my photos and contacts can disappear at any time for any reason and act accordingly even when not doing an update. This and other forums have hundreds of posts of lost pictures and lost contacts caused by all sorts of situations and issues.
In addition to backing up to iCloud or via iTunes, I would recommend that you import the pictures to your computer if you have one: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 and that you sync your contacts http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1296 -

Since you say that you cannot do anything with the iPad at this point you may need to use DFU to restore it. Follow the above instructions about disabling any-virus software and the firewall, then follow these instructions.
Placing an iPhone into Device Firmware Upgrade (DFU) mode
DFU mode is not the same as restore mode. DFU mode bypasses the current OS installed. If you are getting errors trying to restore in iTunes, DFU mode is very likely for you.
1. Open iTunes and connect the iPad to your Mac/PC.
2. Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time.
3. After exactly 10 seconds release the Sleep/Wake button. Continue holding the home button until you iTunes pops up a message telling you that it has detected an iPad in recovery mode.
4. Click OK and Restore your phone. -

I am trying to update my iPhone 4s to IOS 1.6.3 but everyone I update it it says error but I don't know how to fix this error!! HELP!!!
That sounds like a possible security software issue on the computer you are using, or are you trying to do the update via the phone OTA?
If you are trying to do it OTA, you might want to connect the phone to the computer and iTunes and attempt the update from there.
BTW, the update is iOS 6.1.3. -

There was a problem downloading the software for the iPhone "Judy's iPhone 4". The network connection was reset.
Make sure your network settings are correct and your network connection is active, or try again later.
I am trying to update the iPhone for my grandmother, Judy, as I am leaving for Paris on Wednesday night and we want to have Facetime installed on her iPhone before then, so we can stay in contact with each other. It is the simplest way for this to happen but the program simply will not allow me to update her iPhone.
Is there any way to get past this error and update her iPhone? Any help will be greatly appreciated.Dear Jody..jone5
Good for you that can't update your iphone because I did it and my iphone dosen't work for example I can't download any app like Wecaht or Twitter..
Goodluck

Hello, I've updated the iPhone I have got I have a problem I hope you respond to some of the applications no longer work, such as the safari and skype and many applications are no longer working with the ios7.0.4
Standard troubleshooting...
1. Try a Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
2. Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
3. Remove apps from Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
- Press the home button when done.
4. If still a problem restore with your backup.
5. If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.
