update required ios 4.2

I do not understand your question. An iPhone 3G can only go to iOS 4.2.1. You update to that iOS by:
iTunes 10 for Windows: Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad

Update required - iOS 5.

This box comes up when I try to download an app.

Follow the instructions here. If you are on iOS 4 - and it appears you are - you will need to update via iTunes.

HT201210 Update to iOS 7.0.4 failed - why is there no option to restore to backup?

*** apple!? An unknown error during the update wiped my phone to Recovery mode and is only giving me the option to restore to factory settings.Why cant I restore to my last backup? What happened to all of my data?

Have you checked on your PC for locally created backups? I also remember that iTunes has the bad habit of overwriting backups from time to time, so maybe check
Windows XP
\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows 7
\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Windows Vista
\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
Mac OS X
/Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
Maybe if you find a backup containing all of the apps you could at least get the data. Best.
In the iTunes app go to Preferences/Devices and check how many different backups are there and the dates. Perhaps you missed being offered which backup to use to restore your iPhone.
See if this post helps you https://discussions.apple.com/message/22379597#22379597
So if you have the latest backup you can do a clean restore and then retrieve data from back up

How do you update the ios 4.3?

i am trying to get my ipod touch 2nd gen to download something and it says ''update required ios 4.3''
what do i do?

For a 2nd generation iPod Touch, the highest possible is iOS 4.2.1.

I cant get my iphone 4 tolog in to my company wifi. i updated to ios 6 and now it just goes to my companies login screen. i enter my username and password and it just sticks. however it will logon to wifi without a requirement for a user name and password

I have to log onto my companies wifi by first going thru a log on page that equires a username and password. before i updated to ios 6. it worked fine now it just goes to the login page and when i hit enter it doesnt do anything just stays stuck on that page. however the phone will log onto a regular wifi router that doesnt require any kind of username or password. any ideas on how to fix it. i have tried everything including reseting all network settings.

1. Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
or
2. Use "Forget This Network"

You need iTunes 11.1 which is not available for download in google chrome or other browsers. The only browser it has worked for with me is Safari. Hope this helps!

I cannot restore my backup from icloud to my new phone because my backup requires ios 8.2. How do I update my new phone to ios 8.2 before restoring my backup ?

Can I update my older ipod touch to play new games that require ios 4.3?

Can I update my older ipod touch to play new games that require ios 4.3? After I purchased games for my son's ipod, they would not upload due to ios. How can I update that without purchasing a new touch?

iOS 4.3 requires a third generation or newer iPod touch; you don't need to buy a brand new device in any case.

If possible... you need to Upgrade to Snow Leopard = OS X 10.6.x (which will Run iTunes Version 11)
It is Not available as a download... It is a Paid Upgrade.
Do this first...
Check that your Mac meets the System Requirements for Snow Leopard...
Snow Leopard Tech Specs
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
If so... Purchase a Snow Leopard Install Disc...

After the Successful Install, run Software Update to get the latest updates for Snow Leopard and iTunes.
Be sure to make a Backup of your Current System Before Upgrading...
NOTE:
You should also consider more RAM... Get the Maximum you can for your Mac...
It is important to get the Correct and Matching RAM

Same technique may work for the iBooks app.

App developers decide on what iOS versions to support with their apps. Also, Apple has identified certain updates that are necessary for particular applications. The only way to continue using certain apps on the iPhone 3G is to not update your apps if they require a higher iOS to operate. When you get ready to update an app, it will say what iOS is works on, and if it requires higher than the iOS you have, do not update. The only other alternative is to replace the device with a newer model.

Is there an update to iOS 6? I've been having several technical issues since the upgrade. Uncontrolled zoom of the entire screen, Siri taking 25 seconds to respond and not recognizing names, locking up of the phone. All requiring a reset.

I would restore with backup and if that doesn't fix it try as new

I want to update to iOS 7 when it comes out via iTunes. I gather that I will require iTunes 11.1 to do so, but I recently updated my version (today) to version 11.0.5. Will I be OK or wait until I have a Wi-Fi connection and do it then?

More than likely, the new version of itunes will be released later today in conjunction with iOS 7. But, yes, you can update the phone via WiFi. Make sure to set up icloud and do a back up first.

HT1222 I was trying to update my iOS to 7.1 but I can't, I have internet connection but if requires WiFi? before I can update my OS just using my phone internet but now I can't. Does OS 7.1 really require WiFi? Thanks!

The iPhone requires wi-fi to update if you try to update over the air, since the phone needs to reboot, thus disconnecting itself. You can update via iTunes and the computer, but you would not be able to tether to the phone for the internet connection, since the phone would disconnect. So, you can either update via wi-fi and the phone, or you can update with a computer that has an internet connection other than the phone.

Restored iPod to 4.2.1 Previously working apps now say "Update Required: This app requires IOS 4.3"

I recently restored my iPod Touch because e-mail, contacts, and calendar stopped working. Upon restore, I noticed many apps failed to reinstall. Apps like Yelp, Facebook, etc. Roughly 10-15 in total are missing entirely. I can select the app in iTunes and move the icon but the application will not install. If I install the app from the iPod its self, an error comes up saying "Update Required: This app requires IOS 4.3". IOS 4.3 is not available for my iPod.
I don't care if I don't have the latest version on the App store, but I do want the latest version available for my device.
How do I install the latest compatible version from the App store onto my iPod?
(I also have a new iPad. I think that had a part to play in replacing the compatible apps with incompatible ones.)

Ouch. Well that was a terrible tradeoff... lose 15 apps to get 3 working.
We're all getting caught out by that one. Time for some feedback to Apple...
