HT1338 how to update from 10.4 manually

im trying to update my iphone to the new software. i couldnt do it cuz i need to download itunes 10.7,i cant download itunes 10.7 cuz i need MAC OS X higher than 10.4(which is what i have now) i just want to update my iphone! HELP!!!!

1) Make sure your computer meets Snow Leopard technical specifications - http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575  This mostly means making sure it is an Intel Mac (yours is) and has at least 1GB RAM (more is recommended).  To check RAM, go to the Apple in the upper left corner of any window, then  "About This Mac". Now continue to "More Info...".  It should say you have at least 1GB of "memory".
2) Apple no longer carries 10.6 in its stores or online. Telephone Apple to purchase a Snow Leopard disc. In the USA: (800) 676-2775 (contact information for other countries: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57)
Alternatively you can buy from online retailers but anticipate paying much more than the original price which is the price still charged by Apple
3) Backing up your computer before upgrading is always a good idea.
4) After installing from the DVD, update your Snow Leopard installation using Software Update or manually downloading and installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v.1.1 - http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • How to update from 3.1.3 to 4.3.3, but not to 4.3.5?

    Hi, I want to know how to update from 3.1.3 to 4.3.3, while the newest iOS version is 4.3.5
    I think Apple won't let me update to 4.3.3. Does anybody know how to do it?
    Your answer would be deeply appreciated. Thank you

    UPDATE TO IOS 4.3 MANUALLY(CANNOT UPDATE TO 4.3 BY APPLE SOFTWARE UPDATE)
    FIRST= Download the iOS 4.3 IPSW file for your device FROM NET
    SECOND- Connect your device to the computer using the USB cable and wait for iTunes to detect it.
    THIRD- Once your device has been detected – follow the steps given below for different OS.
    For Windows – Hold the Shift key and then click on the "Check for Update/Update" button.
    For Mac OS X – Hold the Option key and then click on the "Check for Update/Update" button.
    4-
    In the next dialog browse to the file that you downloaded from Step 1 and select the IPSW file.
    5
    iTunes will now use the IPSW file and update your device to iOS 4.3. The process should take around 10-20 minutes.
    That’s it. Your device will be updated to iOS 4.3 with ease.

    Can anyone tell me how to update from 4.2.6? 

    Check to make sure you don't have two firewalls (i.e. a Windows firewall and one on your router).
    If that's not it, you may need to dig deeper ... like temporarily changing your router's DNS to use Google's DNS or OpenDNS instead of your ISP's DNS.  Or maybe open up a certain port on your router (not sure which one that would be though, sorry).  Or, if your computer is connected to the internet over wi-fi, try connecting to your router (or modem) via Ethernet, I heard of that solving a problem like this (though I can't confirm if that was real).

    how to update from version 4.1 to 6.0

    What do you mean unlocked one?  You are talking about software updates here and software updates are free and for a 3gs you can only update to 6.1.3 as you have already been told.
    If you are talking about phones themselves, then this is totally different and you need to be more specific or get your question right.
    There is no unlocked software update - it s free.

    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 release supported by the device’s hardware.
    The maximum iOS version for the original iPhone and first generation iPod touch is 3.1.3.

  • HT1338 how to update software from 10.5 to 10.7?

    how to update software from 10.5 to 10.7?

    You need to buy a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD from the online Apple Store, and phone them and order a download code for Mac OS X 10.7. Mac OS X 10.7 requires a Mac with a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) or better CPU and at least 2GB of RAM.

    What do you mean you're in the process of "downloading the installer for 10.7.3"? If you mean the software update combo, you won't be able to use that to go from 10.7.4 to 10.7.3. The only way you could do that is to reinstall the whole OS from the App Store IF that version is 10.7.3. I don't know if the App store Lion installer includes 10.7.4 already, but if it does, you can't get to 10.7.3 at all.
    As for what you do about your slow machine, there are tips all over the internet. I wrote up some of the basic one's to try here:
    http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/12/05/why-is-my-mac-running-so-slow/
    Other possibilities not mentioned there are either a corrupt install of Lion (solution; re-install from the Recovery disk) or hardware failure (old hard disks and other hardware components can sometimes give out there last after the strain of a new install).

    Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements

    Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
    If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
    MB427Z/A  Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
    MB576Z/A  Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
    MB021Z/A  Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

    Caution - Leopard does not support classic mode. So, if you currently open OS 9 apps in classic mode, you won't be able to do this if you upgrade to Leopard.

    how to update and new version for my macbook 10.5.8

    First check if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    Whilst Apple have withdrawn Snow Leopard from their stores, you can still get it from Apple by calling 1-800-MY-APPLE (if you are in the USA) and they will supply the SL DVD for $30.  You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion from the same number.
    If you are outside the US call your national Apple Helpline:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57
    If you're in the UK, use this number: 0871 508 4400
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.
