HT1688 trying to update phone saying its 3g when i pay for 4g

i want to fix iphone, says its in 3g mode, I pay for 4g

There is no iPhone 4G. The newest iPhone 4S is a 3G phone. AT&T plays a game to try to make folks think that they are using 4G, but it isn't true 4G.

  • HT1766 i tried to update phone now its wont turn on

    I updated my phone as requested by itunes and now it won't turn on and asks me to restore to original settings.  The photo is itunes with a cord

    Connect to iTunes on the Computer you Usually Sync with and Restore... When Prompted... Restore as New.

    We need a bit more information to help.
    Are you trying to update your iPhone using iTunes on your computer?  If so, did you make purchases through the iTunes Store or App Store on your iPhone, and fail to sync them with your computer?  That is the likely meaning of what you are seeing.  If this is true, the purchases would be added to iTunes in your computer before the upgrade proceeds.

  • HT4623 I keep trying to update and once its done it says an error occured

    I keep trying to update and once its done it says "unable to install update an error occured installing IOS 7.1.

    Are you trying to install it OTA? If so, hook it up to iTunes on the computer your sync with and update it that way.

  • My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'.   Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6.  I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works.  Her phone says its on. ???

    My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'.   Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6.  I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works.  Her phone says its on but when I try and locate it from either my phone or laptop it shows it offline.  Any suggestions.  It's my only peace of mind! Thanks!

    Does she have her own iCloud account?  You can have more than one iCloud account installed on a device, and some users install a secondary iCloud account which is common to others in the family to allow "Find My iPhone" to be used from one account while keeping separate iCloud contacts, mail, etc.
    But with iOS 7 although you can still have multiple iCloud accounts installed, only the "primary" iCloud account supports "Find my iPhone".  So if her iCloud account is the primary, you can no longer track her from your iCloud account.  Is that what happened in your case?

    I been trying for a few times now and I keep getting the same message. How can i fix it? now my phone doesnt work.

    These are the steps mentioned in the article iPhone: Troubleshooting activation issues
    Perform the following steps if you receive one of the messages above:
    Restart the iPhone.
    Try another means of reaching the activation server and attempt to activate.
    Try connecting to a known-good Wi-Fi network if you're unable to activate using a cellular data connection.
    Try connecting to iTunes if you're unable to activate using Wi-Fi.
    Restore the iPhone.
    If you receive an alert message when you attempt to activate your iPhone, try to place the iPhone in recovery mode and perform a restore. If you're still unable to complete the setup assistant due to an activation error, contact Apple for assistance.

  • IOS 7: When I go to settings general software update it says its up to date at iOS 6.1.3

    So when I hit settings on my iPad Mini, then general, then software update, it says its up to date on iOS 6.1.3
    When I hit setting on my iPhone 4S, then general, then software update, it just gets stuck on checking for update.
    Anyone know what the problem is? I'm guessing Apple took down the update servers to fix them because of the overload of users trying to download it..but I just want to double check.
    Thanks

    Well, millions of people are trying to do the exact same thing. Yes, the servers are busy, busy, busy. Please be patient.

  • TS3694 hi, I was trying to update my iPhone 3gS but when I turn it on again iTunes send me a message that says error 3194 occurs, please help me!!

    hi, I was trying to update my iPhone 3gS but when I turn it on again iTunes send me a message that says error 3194 occurs, please help me!!

    If the screen shows a plug going to itunes, then you have no choice,  It's in recovery mode.  You'll be given the chance to restore from a backup either from itunes or icloud.
    I assume when you got the message to update (was this for the ios or update some apps?), that was before the device when dead.  At any rate, doing a restore does not change the ios.

  • I have a late 2011 macbook pro and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated

    I have a late 2011 macbook pro running OSX Lion, and it wont update the firmware to 2.7, it downloads the update then says its installing it but when i go back to software update it keeps coming up saying it needs to be updated. Im wondering what can i do to stop this or get it to update.

    Once it is downloaded you need to restart the computer if it does not restart automatically. When it next starts up you should note a progress bar appearing below the Apple logo. When done the computer will restart once more. The new firmware should now be installed.

  • HT1338 How do I get a driver for my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 so that it will run with Mountain LIon?  I tried "Software Update" and says "no update available"

    How do I get a driver for my Epson Stylus Photo 1400 so that it will run with Mountain LIon?  I tried "Software Update" and says "no update available".  I contacted Epson and was told all driver updates had to be obtained using "Software Update"?

    You will find the latest Epson drivers herehttp://support.apple.com/kb/DL1398.
    If you don't find a driver for your printer in the above, then install the Gutenprint drivers. It supports your model.

  • HT4528 My phone says its charging all the time but wont turn on

    My phone says its charging but wont turn I have it plugged in all day long and it just continues to show the low battery on the front! About every 6hours it will turn on for 5 minutes then shut right back off! Idk what's going on please help! All the support things on here want my serial number but obviously I cant get to it since my phone wont turn on!!

    Hello Monica121,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    It sounds like the phone will not boot or load up even after being given sufficient time to charge.
    I had a couple of recommendations for this issue:
    First reset the device with this procedure.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
              http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    If the issue persists after that, then I would try these steps from the iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting article found here http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • I have purchased Adobe expert PDF and in my order update it says its available in my downloads but when I go into my downloads there is nothing there

    I have purchased Adobe expert PDF and in my order update it says its available in my downloads but when I go into my downloads there is nothing there

    That is my problem when I click the link to access my download there is no download available on my account.  I purchased Adobe exportPDF 6 days ago but never got an e-mail to confirm that my payment had gone through and that it was available to download although the payment has been deducted from my visa card.  I went through the FAQ and was directed to my account which showed that the payment was confirmed and export PDF was available to download. I followed the link to my downloads but it says I have no downloads.  So the transaction is showing in my subscriptions but not in my downloads section.  My order number is AD005040367IE.
