An iPhone 3GS can go to iOS 6.0.1, the latest available iOS. and you do that via iTunes. You need iTunes version 10.7
iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
However, the iPhone 3G can only go 4.2.1.

I have iPhone 3GS with OS4.2. To, I try to upgrade it with ituon 6.1.1. After upgrade I unable activate my iPhone. Then I try to restore back, but after restore, I still unable to activate my phone. I with T- mobile, but they told me to call Apple. Please help!
Your iPhone was hacked/jailbroken in order to unlock to to work with T-Mobile. When you updated it you broke the hack and the iPhone is now locked again to the original cell provider, most likely AT&T.
You can see about unlocking it with AT&T by using this form, if you qualify: https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/termsAndCondition
After unlocking you will need to use Google and learn the procedure to clear the unlock hack and Restore it. -

I have iPhone 3GS, no sim-free, and it locked (tried to update to virsion 6.0). How can I unlock it?
What do you mean how can you unlock it? If it was truly "sim-free" it would not have locked when you updated.
ONLY the carreir the phone is locked to can authorize unlocking it. Contact them if you haven't managed to brick it entirely now. -
can someone help me connect my iphone 3gs to internet without using wifi i have virgin mobile sim inserted and can only connect to internet when connect to wifi
Ask virgin sim why you can't use cellular data for internet.

I recently updated my iOS on my Iphone 3Gs and it won't sync any of my music or photo's. I'm extremely frustrated and annoyed that I can't put any of my music or photo's onto my Iphone as the new iOS (5.1) won't sync.
I've done everything I can think of. I've done everything people have said that would work for them from the internet and nothing has worked. I need help!This should be helpful.

I have an iPhone 3GS, the battery is dead and needs replaced. Is there any way to have the battery replaced and save all the photos and videos that are very important of family and friends that are irreplaceable on it? There has been no back up done on the phone that I know of. Thanks for any help you can give me.
I have to think you have tried operating the iPhone with the charging cable plugged into a charger and outlet or USB. It is likely you have tried this and it failed to operate. Have you tried a Reset on the iPhone to see if that will cause the battery to function ling enough to do an iCloud backup or iTunes backup?

I have iphone 3gs with BSNL connection. Recently a message came as update OS and it was done to OS 6 with revised maps etc. But now the map is not a correct one without proper road names and refernces. Could not get directions also. the earlier one was a clear one with enough details. What could be the problem. Can somebody help. It was working fine earlier- before OS updatement.
Google maps is no longer included in ios 6.
This has been very well publicized in the news and elsewhere.

I have iphone 3gs ios 6.1.3 .. I have a problem I can not look contact profile and save it. I already sync with outlook and windows books also can not be seen. I tried to add a contact on the contact menu, but the result like restart ... (but not restart the device, not just stored). I am confused about this issue ... please help ..
thank you in advance.Your suggestion worked perfectly. I can't believe there is nothing in any of the instructions I have seen online at the Yahoo and Apple help sites about the making sure the right default account is checked. I don't think I was even aware there was a "default account" setting. Thank you so much.

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5209 might help you. An iPhone 4 can airplay content from apps that support airplay and iTunes but it cannot mirror. If your game does not have airplay in the app you cannot mirror it to the apple TV so I don't know if you can play just the music. You should have no problem playing your iTunes over airplay though.

How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch -
I have an iPhone 3GS with iOS 5. Before the update I had a load of apps etc and was left with approx 4gb space left. Since the update removed ALL my apps from my iPhone, I still have the same ammount of space. Why is this?
Hi,
Are you sure your phone has not been unlocked or jailbroken at some time as the same thing happened to me.
I had the phone secondhand and did not know. Updating to IOS 5 locked the phone back to the original service provider which was AT&T in USA and I am in UK.
Hope this helps,
Alan
