HT201263 I have had a new I phone 5s and am trying to update from i cloud but new phone is telling me it needs an update to ios 7.1.1. How do you do this,

My phone saying 'no icloud backups are compatible with the version (ios 7.0.6) on this phone. But doesnt explain how to get the new update.
Hoped/expectyed it would update automatically but sadly not

It sounds like the iPhone setup is asking if you'd like to restore from an iCloud backup, and the Apple ID being used does not contain any backups which are compaible.
If you tap "Back" on the top left, choose to "Set up as new phone" and then attempt to update. Once the update is completed you might be able to restore from a backup if you have one.
If your iOS backup is from an updated/later version than what the iPhone is on, this may cause problems.
