HT4539 How come i don't have any software update on the general tab

I was trying to update and when i went to general tab software update is not on the drop down choices

Because it's running an iOS version prior to 5.0 and needs to be updated from iTunes on a computer.

  • Why does iphone 4 not have a softwear update under the general tab

    why does my iphone 4 bnot have a softwear updater under the general tab

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

    Also read the instructions from the section entitled "Update your device using iTunes" at the link below.

  • HT4623 I cannot update my iPhone 4.  I have reset and erased all content and my phoine still does not have a "software update" under the general settings.  What now?

    I cannot update my iPhone 4.  I have erased all content and reset the phone, however, there is still no "software update" under the general settings on my phone.  I keep trying to download the update through iTunes and it quits everytime without success.  Any suggestions?

    READ the entire article from which the question was posted.
    It clearly states that the "Update Software" option ONLY applies to iOS 5 and later.
    If there are issues with updating via iTunes, provide specific details of what is occurring so that we can offer relevant solutions.

  • How come I don't have any plugins for Logic Pro X?

    Hi! So, I recently bought and installed Logic Pro X, and I was excited to use the different plugins it had to offer,. But to my surprise, it seems there arent any plugins besides the ones displayed. When I click in the "plugin area" to open it up, all I see is this. Ive been trying to figure out what I did wrong in the installation process. I'm pretty new to the Apple scene, so I'd really appreciate the help .. Thank you! Heres what comes up when I click in the "plugin area". For example, I don't have the EXS24 or any other plugins of that nature. I have no idea what to do.

    Also...
    1) Make sure you have downloaded all the additional content.... via the menu option Logic Pro X/Download Additional Content
    2) Make sure you turn on all the advanced features of LPX by going to the Advanced tab of LPX's preferences.... so LPX isn't running in the "Garageband Pro" mode....

    You cannot. iOS 4.2.1 is as far as the iPhone 3G will go.

    If you update, an iPad 1 will update to iOS 5.1.1. Other iPads will update to iOS 6.0.1.

    If you are currently running an iOS lower than 5.0, connect the iPad to the computer, open iTunes. Then select the iPad under the Devices heading on the left, click on the Summary tab and then click on Check for Update.
    Tip - If connected to your computer, you may need to disable your firewall and anitvirus software temporarily.  Then download and install the iOS update. Be sure and backup your iPad before the iOS update. After you update to iOS 6.x, the next update can be installed via wifi (i.e., not connected to your computer).

  • How come I don't have the music icon on my store, so that I can't syncronise music but only apps?

    How come I don't have the music icon in my store, so that I can't syncronise music but only apps & books with Icloud?

    Airtunes? I assume you mean iTunes match? The little cloud symbols?
    If so, you need to make sure it is turned on in your phone and in your computer.
